Nearly all of a newspaper's cir- culation is concentrated in its own mar- ket. may 3. Newspaper advertising reduces selling costs because it entails no waste in circulation. This helps reduce | costs for the consumer, THE END OF WAR During the World War the thought that it would usher in a new era of peace strengthened the hearts and increased the i determination of the men engaged in that great strife. This ideal has not been reached. The League of Nations and the World Court, visions inspired by a conception of man’s brotherhood, have both failed to plish expectations up to this time. At the outbreak of the World War there were roughly about 4,500,000 men in the regular armies of Europe with a lit- tle more than three times that number of trained reserves. Now these have over over seven times as many more in reserve. The World War has not eliminated mili- tarism. In many other ways the pursuit of war has made progress since 1914. The airplane, the automobile, the radio, and other scientific inventions, including mili- tary gases, have all been applied for use by the armies of the next war—the peo- ples of the world know another war is com- ing but they have no way of gauging its | death dealing potentialities or its horror It would seem that the collective wis- dom of mankind, irrespective of any feel- ing of humane regard for others, woultl realize the folly and waste of war. The old hatreds and animosities and the new ambitions and greeds place impassable ob- stacles in the way of reason and love.

Superficially viewed the idea seems very attrac- tive. Everyone knows that a vacation 3 that is planned in advance is likely to prove more satisfac- tory thanone that is entered upon with no preparation Military cam- paigns, political campaigns sales cam- paigns, etc. if they are to suc- ceed, must be planned. The operation of farms and fac- tories. and the building of railroads and highways, requires careful planning. What is more natural, therefore, than to con- clude that planning should be ap- plied to the entire economic order! Surely a “planned society” would be superior to an unplanned one! The idea seems so attractive be- cause of failure to realize what is in- volved. As matters stand now, if some corporation can invent or improve a product its production and sale must be carefully planned, of course, but the planning is done by the corpora- tion that invented or improved the article. If a chemical concern can develop a process for making artificial silk, or can make an improved paint for automobiles, it naturally puts it on the market, thereby adding to the wealth of the nation. In what respect, then, would the situation be different if we were to have a “planned society”? In this most important respect: the “planned society” would have to be administered by a large staff of per- sons, and these persons would be Gov- ernment officials.

You and Your Nation’s Affairs Where Will “Planning” Lead? | By ELIO" Professor of Transportation and Public Utilities, T JONES University economic matters were managed in accordance with a “plan,” these offi- cials would have to panei whether the introduction of artificial silk, im- proved paint, and the like, would ét { into the plan. The introduction of rayon would presumably reduce the | demand for other textiles, and there- fore for the labor employed in their manufacture. Under these conditions, the officials, especially if theirinterests | were bound up in any way (geograph- ically, politically, or economically) with the other textile industries, might deny permission to introduce the new article, or at any rate hamper its development. While economic planning, of a limited sort, is commendable, it would, if carried to its logical con- | clusion, give to a group of govern- | ment officials centralized control over the entire economic process. To make | plans for all industries, and to make | the frequent changes that would be necessary to adapt the plan to chang- ing conditions, would require almost superhuman ability. What assurance do we have that persons competent to direct this vast program could be found, or would be selected? Might we not merely suce ceed in creating a political bureau- | cracy? The planned economy would {| doubtless at first be administered by | persons who believed in the institu- | tions of private property and free en- terprise, but these institutions are not compatible with the idea of a planned society. If a planned economy Is to be real- | ized, then, it would be necessary to ; go on to a full-fledged system of con- trol, in which the rights of private | property in the means of production are abandoned—in other words, to socialism. it is well, therefore, to realize In ad- { vance what economic planning really involves, and not to embrace a seduc- | tive slogan, unless we are prepared | to go where it takes us. thor, care of this newspaper) being discussed and plans for} !a monster parade are in the mak- , ing.
