cost OF living problem. So Tar as
profiteering practices are responsible
for price aggravations, some consid-
cradle mitigation of the cost OF Nv
ing situation may be expected and In
deed is already in sight.
The problem of reducing the high
cost Of living, however, is mainly that
of restoring the purchasing power OF
the dollar. The dollar has lost its
purchasing power because expansion
of credit proceeded at a rate more
rapid than the production and saving
of goods. The way in must be the
way out As the way in was expan-
sion of credit at q rate more rapid
than the expansion of production and
saving. the way out must be an in
crease in production and saving. The
effect of increased saving will be
reduction in the volume of purchasing
media in use, and by consequence, a
reduction of prices also.
That the expansion of credit has
been a considerable factor in our
financial and price situation is clear;
that it is still a factor and one that
calls for correction by the process OF
increasing production and savings and
by the investment OF the proceeds OF
savings in the absorption of govern
ment bonds is equally clear"
