THE ZENITH OF SCARCITY.

I y the midst Of prices that seem interminabe.
L the hopeful testimony Bernard Baruch for
mer head of the industries board. is as welcome
as the first spring robin He tells congressional
investigating committee that the zenith Of scarcity
in world supplies has been reached. When commodi-
ties as scarce as they possibly be- it stands
to reason that they are going to become more
plentiful And with more commodities will come
lower prices.
Practically the same thing has been said many
a time before but 2Ir. Baruoh's present reasoning
seems unassailable. He points out that 125OO0,O00
people who during the were removed from use

almost all been returned the work OF pro-
and distribution" that at last the spec
ulators and hoarders are beginning to unload"

present time tends 20 greater productions and that
Will settle the matter
There are still profteers OF course. and Will be
hereafter but they are a comparatively small
factor. Of diminishing Importance There are also
defects Of production and distribution. and other
Gripping Influences. But the thing inevitable.
There Will be more and more production and with
it prices Will go down they always do in such
cases
From the zenith of scarcity we tend toward the
peak Of production" When that is reached. there
Will be plenty of everything, and We shall probably
start complaining about low prices
