luckily bought, or cheapls produced,
is it not fair play that out of those
unearned profits should be assumed
some of the loss from low prices on
goods bought thigher levels? When
the public becomes convinced that
business is giving it the advantage of
falling prices just as readily as it
took advantage of rising prices, pub
lie confidence will be treasured and
buying stimulated.
Must Be Efficient.
again it is a part of the educa-
ton which business owes to the pub
lie to demonstrate that goods are be-
ing. produced at the least possible
cost compatible with the prices of
materials and labor. Bushes owes
it to the public to be efficient and
to give it the benefit of that eff
ficiency. The public is inclined to
distrust that business has become too
used to excessive profits and is,
therefore. not willing to pass along
products on a reasonable margin of
profit. | am presenting the public
view in this respect and am not ex.
pressing my own thought. I do not
believe that business is exacting ex-
orbitant profits but at the same time
it is my feeling that the public is not
yet convinced of this view. There
has been some damage done to the
progress of readjustment by highly
advertised reduced price sales in
which prices were not sincerely re-
duced
II have only limited at one or two
suggestions for meeting the present
situation. There is one more impor-
tant thing that occurs to me and that
is that growing unemployment and
lowered wages have created fear
on the part of many that their buy
ing power is going to be drastically
reduced. They are struggling to gel
along with their old belongings rath.
er than to buy new ones, apprehen.
sive that later on they will need ev.
cry cent they can save in order tt
make sure of obtaining life's neces
saries. 1t will very materially aiC
the orderly readjustment now under
way if business sees to it that z
reasonable relation is maintained be
tween the reduction in the buying
mower of the wage group and the re
duction in the high cost of living
Maintaining real wages means pro
noting the general prosperity which
affects us all. The American wage

a rebcuEG in prices without an in
crease in real wages to meet it. The
result would be that the pressure
economy, instead of following the
course of amelioration that has set
in, would again become enormous.
as there not great threat in the
present situation of such unfortu-
nate results as these Is not the re-
cession in public buying forcing in
dustry into too great a curtailment
of production? Will not, in other
words, the public pay a greater price
for its false economy than if it main
tanned more temperate attitude,
both as to buying in flush and as
to absention from buying in a time
such as the present? Is it not true
that any economic force which de-
velops sufficient intensity to injure
a considerable part of the public
works injury in ultimate effect to
the body polite as a whole? All must
pay a part of the cost.
Up to Business.
$50 much for the responsibility
of the public in the present situa-
ton. We are all a part of the pub
lie and must bear our part of such
responsibility. But as business men
we must not be blind to the fact that
the real initial remedy lies with
business itself. Lies, in other words
with the chief sufferer in the present
misfortune. What will help to re-
store this normal scale of buying
which we al recognize necessary
to keep the streams of trade flow
the feeling of distrust prevalent in
the minds of purchasers that some
business men are still demanding
to much for their wares. This dis
trust in some cases amounts almost
to resentment that business is moi
keeping good faith with its public
A good deal of an argument can
be put up for passing on the losses
of a declining market to the ultimate
consumer SO long as he keeps buy
ing, since this spreads the loss most
thinly and widely. But when the
ultimate consumer revolts and stops
buying, the wise merchant in such
case will meet the market and lower
his price levels. This is not only
sound business but good sporting
shirt, which the American public
likes to honor.
''The public knows that many bust
ness men made excessive profits in
the era of extravagant public buying
by being able to unload accumulated
stocks bought at 10 wprices. Is ii
too much to say that it was the duty
of such business men to exercise
foresight and accumulate surpluses
to absorbelosses incident to a period
of dropping prices? If the full toll
of high prices was exacted on goods

Buyers Strike May Bring Back
High Prices, Says Noted Banker
Refusal To Purchase Altogether Not Thrifty, He
Tells Public Says Dealers Must
Establish Confidence

NEW YORK, Dec. 17.-Publfc re-
fusal to buy has been carried to the
point of false economy and normal
buying must y resumed to prevent
a possible confbination of high prices
with low wages and unemployment,
it was declared by Roger H. Will
Hams, vice-president of the National
Bank of Commerce in New York,
in an address at the eighth annual
meeting of the Converters Associa-
ton at the Biltmore Hotel. Business
needs to regain public confidence by
exacting smaller profits and even
by accepting losses in some cases,
he said.
$40 my mind there is no great
er service that can be rendered to-
day to business and to the public
than to re-establish normal value
of buying" Mr.. Williams asserted.
"And to do this it seems to me bust
ness and the public must come to
an understanding. 1t is through
the processes of business, either di-
rectly or indirectly, that most of the
so-called good things of life are ac-
cumulated which we all share, or try
to. Unless business is being done,
unless there is fair distribution of
activity, there can be no prosperity
to divide, either between employer
or employee, business man or con-
sumner.
ut is no time to preach thrift
lessness now, but it time to place
emphasis on the need for sanity in
buying. 1t is not thrifty to stop
buying altogether any more than it
is thrifty to consume all of our cur
rent production without considera-
ton of the future. That is a waste
full way of doing business. 1t means
extravagant production costs and
waste Of materials in the boom ne
riod, and in the period of depression
it means deterioration of goods not
consumed. In both periods, there
fore, it means great waste of human
endeavor-and in the last analysis,
the public pays the bills.
Restraint Inflicts Injury.
"There are number of more di-
rect and obvious ways in which this
restraint of buying is inflicting in
jury. With goods flooding back on
their hands, producers and distribu-
tors have had to make abrupt cur
tailments of their activities, result
ing in unemployment and in many
directions in drastic wage cuts. Not
only are manufacturers and distribu-
tors injured, but misfortune visits
the working class with its resultant
discomfort and unsettlement. But
the i'll effects of the movement do
not stop even here. A recession in
buying carried too far, and produc-
ing too great stagnation in pro-
duction and distribution, may result
in a secondary era of shortages and
