TLAND, COUNTY. $. D. THURSDAY JUNE - 1920

The result of soviet government
on the industries of Russia should be
sufficient to condemn the system a.
mong all enlightened peoples, and
yet the plan finds favor in some quar-
ers, even in this counry The Plumb
plan of operating the railroads is
a modified application of the soviet
idea, and this plan was endorsed by
the American Federation of Labor
at its recent meeting in Montreal.
A summary Of the result of the. sys
tenn az it has worked out in Russia.
is given by Harvey's Weekly IS fol.
lows.
"The official organ of the Rus sian
Bolshevik government states that the
estimated deficit for 1920 on the ope-
ration of nationalized industries Tin
our money at normal exchange rates)
is SIP, 825, 600. 900. One item of
over seven billion dollars is loss from
cost of production exceeding sales
prices. Still another item of over
half billion dollars is charged to
measures necessary to keep workmen
quiet'-these measures being the
maintenance of heavily armed militia
ry forces in turbulent factories.
The citizen-Republican. (Scotland, Bon Homme County, S.D.) 1???-19??, 1920-06-24

law, but the management has in some
respects been unwise. By extending
unlimited credit and expanding the
currency it stimulate6Jrecklees apecu-
lation which has proven detrimental.
Then in order to correct this mistake
the board has gone to the other ex-
treme in cutting off credit entirely.
Just now the big stock feeders are
needing credit to purchase cattle to
feed. The welfare of the country de-
mands that the cattle be fed in order
to provide the meat supply. Yet the
Withdrawing of credit by the reserve
banks makes it impossible to furnish
the farmers the crediS required. The
eupply of currency and the control of
credit are largely under the control of
the federal reserve bank under the
present law. and while they should be
70 managed as to discourage reckless
speculation, they should not deny
credit necessary for the maintenance
of legitimate and necessary indus
tries. The defects are not 80 much
in the law as in the administration of
it.
