The Farmers Are Not Going Bankrupt

whether farm prices or other prices,

wrong and economically impossible.

on the inflated prices. IL we could
force all prices back to the pre-war
normal-which we cannot-it would
he equivalent to just about doubling
the debt
I'VE can pay off our debts much
easier if we maintain a price level
more nearly that at which the debts
were incurred. OF course, the exces-
sively high prices which prevailed dur
ing the war cannot continue, but if we
should try to bring about level, say,
70 per cent above the pre-war level,
everybody would be better off.
Secretary Wallace declared the
country does not realize that farmers
have suffered most because of a great
er decline in prices affecting their
products than those of other classes.
The truth is, however, that while
the farmer is selling his produce be-
low the pre-war normal, everything he
buys costs from so to 80 per cent
above it.
