CAUSE OF HIGH PRICES
Not Enough Goods-Too Much Money


(By DR.. Frank Crane)
The cause of high prices is not some
mysterious, complex thing, but it is
perfectly simple.
In buying and selling there are two
elements: First, the number of things
there are to sell; and, second, the
amount of money there is to paw for
them.
If there are plenty of things and
little money, things naturally will be
cheap. If there are few things and
much money, things will be dear.
This is natural law. Neither stat
utes nor regulations of government
can affect it to any great extent.
In the United tSates and ali over
the world We have been doing two
things:
l. We have been reducing the num-
Der of things for sale. This we have
been doing by vast program Of de-
struction. Huge armies have been
desolating, farms, burning villages,
battering down factories and flooding,
mines. They have also been toking
the steel and other materials needed in
building homes or making ware, put
ting them into canno, shells, gunboats,
and the like, and blowing them up.
Which is precisely the same as if

Hence, to reduce high prices, two
simple things must be done: % Pro-
duce more goods, and (2) quit ex-
pandiag the amount of money and
securities. Paul NJ. Warburg stated
the case clearly:
IF governments adopt rigid policy
of preventing the further issue of
government securities and money to
cover current deficiencies, they will
take the first and most effective step
in combating the decrease of produc-
ton, the rise of prices and the fall of
exchanges. If they vii mot or cannot
adopt such a course they are headed
for insolvency and social and econo-
mic disruption. - copyrighted 1920,
