D. A. Haley, president of the U.
S. Chamber of Commerce, points
out some facts. Federal agencies,
all along the line will make a de-
vout effort to get rid of all the cash
left in their accounts . . . . They
must spend the money appropriat-
ed to every agency, in order that
come July first their asking for a
larger amount to spend next year
be granted them . . . . What would
happen if we all spent the last dol-
ler we had each year in order that
we could start’ with a clean slate?

TAXES CAN KILL OUR
ECONOMY
Karl Marx, the fellow who wrote
the creed of communism, had some-
thing to say about taxation. He said
that capitalism. which means our
system of free initiative, enterprise
and progress, will eventually be
destroyed by ‘faxes, taxes and still
more taxes. He even predicted that
democratic, capitalist countries
would, if left to their own devices,
finally tax thei: economic systems
te death and thus bring in commu-
nism. Well, taxation can de just
that, if carried too far. The people
who are continually fighting for
more tax money to spend. even
though their preposals may be ex-
celient and even though some of
the additional tax money might be
used to benefit the people general-
ly, sheuld take the :Vlarxian precept
to heart. Taxes can kill our econo-
my.

CEILINGS DON'T MEAN
A THING
quotes an officer
store chain as saying,
not mean a thing”. He went on to
explain that observation in these| ar iS again dominating our whole
|
words: “Most of the goods we sell
are below ceiling. When you're try-|
ing to unload high inventeries, you
worry about prices that will bring]
in customers, not about ceilings you |
know you can’t reach.”
Many other retailers around the
country, dealing in goods as varied
as haberdashery and automobiles, |
expressed similar views. As the
Wall Street Journal summed it up,
“By and large the merchants re-
port that the real control on prices
consists of the lofty stacks of goods
in warehouses and on store shel-
ves.”
This situation illustrates one all-
important fact—and that is Simply
that maximum production and ag-
gressive competition do more to
put the brakes on inflation than
any political controls which have
ceeurred to the mind of man.
As a matter of fact, under cer-
tain circumstances controls can ac-
tually be inflationary. They can un-
dermine competition—if everyone

They just stand there.” This man-
power problem, in all probability,
will be the toughest nut to crack
in the long run. It is estimated that |
hy the end of the current year a-
bout 8800,600 civilians will be
needed in defense jebs. A very
substantial part of them will have
to leave work in what is considered
nonessential enterprise and move
into the essential industries. |
However, few think that severe |
civilian shertages will develop, save |
in a few specialized lines, unless a
big war comes along. The belief is |
that American productivity can
handle the defense load and the]
normal civilian load at the same |
time. Many kinds of goods are ac-
tually in surplus supply now, as]
th recent price wars in New York |
and other cities demonstrated.
Those wars were largely the con-
sequence of excessively large in-

HERE'S ANOTHER HOLDOUT

There was a time when pr oduc- |
ers grew a croy of potatoes, apples, |
onions or anything else, they al-|
ways disposed of same. If there was |
no demand they made the price s0|
attractive that a market was al-|
ways available but not so today. |
Out in Washington they had al
good crop of apples last Fall but |
the growers kept the price up so
high that the demand blew out the
window.
Now, in the vicinity of Yakima, |
Wash., between 2,000 and 3,000 car- |
loads of apples have been dumped |}
because nobody will pay 50 cents a |
box. During the winter they could ||
have gotten four times that much.
