of our greatest perils in the future
lies III further credit expansion" thu
committee says, and this peril
comes largely from our, lending by
borrowing The committee points
out the right way and the wrong way
to lend money to our country. "The
right way" 1t says, is the frank
and honest way of saving up the
money by spending less or earning
more; the wrong way is the at first
cheap and easy, although ultimately
costly and painful way, of lending
the Government what we borrow at
the bank"
"By giving up non.essentials to buy
Government securities" the commit
tee further says, I'VE allow the Gov
ernment to buy war essentials and
at the same time release productive
energy from the making Of non-es-
sentials for us to the making of es.
sentials for the Government"
But" it goes on toi say, IF we
won't make the needed sacrifice and
perhaps delude ourselves into be-
lieving that we do not have to do
SO or even that we ought not to do
so, that, on principle, we favor "busi-
ness as usual for ourselves while
expecting business unusual to be
superadded by the Government, we
simply go through the motions of
giving our billions to the Government
without really giving. them up. There.
fore the Government, in order to
buy away from us what We will not
otherwise surrender, bids I'M prices,
and the rise in prices which comes
about through this sort of lending is
cumulative"

the money cost of war grows and
the Government has to borrow more

ment require bigger loans to us frorl
