In other words, wouldn’t a forced prosperity eventually erack with a resounding thud that would shake the en- tire nation economically? As The Citizen said a few days ago, it is a difficult matter for Key Westers to determine who is right in the many con- tradictory statements:that are being made about inflation, disinflation and recession. They will find it even more difficult to fathom the statement made by Senator Joseph C. O'Mahoney that there is danger that the current economy drive in congress might touch off a serious depression. Senator O’Marhoney, who is chair- man of the joint economic committee, took issue with proposals made by Senator Harry Byrd that the gevernment cut down its expenses in every instance where. itis proved that the expense is unnecessary. As Citizen readers may recall, we have published many an-artiele written by Senator Byrd in his advoeacy of fewer bureaus and far fewer government em- ployes, who do little more: than’ endorse their salary checks. But O'Mahoney, in dis- agreeing with Byrd, maintains that if the government trims its spending too deeply and discharges too many employes, that procedure, instead of lessening a recession, “may bring on a real depression.” In other words, QMahoney favors continuing priming the pump in efforts to stop or curb the natural working of the law of supply and demand. How long that priming should be continued, he did not say, but he may be sure the. longer it is kept up the worse will be the crack-up when the day of reckoning comes to pass. Education seems to be an endless affair. Differences of opinion, publicly stated and publicly discussed, are the essence of ,Popular government. READ THE LABOR LAWS In connection with the current dis- cussion in Congress . about repeal of the Taft-Hartley Labor Law and enactment of new legislation, it might be well: for the publie to bear in mind the fact that there are three legislative proposals under con- sideration. The Administration bill introduced by Chairman Lesinski, would kill the Taft- Hartley Act and reinstate the old Wagner Act, with some changes recommended by the President. Another measure, intro- duced by Representative Wood, would re- tain most of the Taft-Hartley Act, while repealing it in name. There will be furious debate, not only in Congress, but throughout the country, on the merits of the legislation. Most of those engaging in the’ arguments will not read either of the three measures but will debate vociferously on the basis of emo- tions and prejudice. While it may be that the old Wagner | Act gave too much of the edge to labor organizations, the -Laft-Hartley legisla- tion undoubtedly went too far in the other direction. Something? fii {between might better preserve the interests of the public, with fairness and justice to both labor and management. The news is not to be confused opinions of the news. with When you get behind with your work, it seems difficult to imagine how you will get back on schedule. RELAXED CREDIT CONTROLS For the second time in less than two months, the Federal Reserve Board has relaxed credit controls, evidently to facili- tate the purchase of goods on time. The average individual will be unable to intelligently pass upon the wisdom of credit relaxation at the present time. How- ever, the Reserve Boa¥d \etains its power and, if necessary, ean®* tighten credit at any time. The action of the Board illastrates the manner in which governmental’ agencies now interfere with the operation of natural economic laws. Some ‘people still talk about the law of supply and demand, as if it operated. They lose sight of the fact | that, in nearly every field of economic activity, there are restrictions, regula- tions, controls and tariffs that prevent the full working of the well known economic | w- law, N jtag % oe Redvaks & aS | Your Horescope — KARL WORTH srarLow: ‘horn May 10, 1898. in Bangor, Me. of a druggist.
