NO BOON IN
CHEAP MONEY

One thing that has to be given W
ways good for business. Farmers
want cheap money, business men
want cheap money, stock spectators
want cheap money, the U. S. Treasury
wants to float government loans on
cheap money, socialists, anarchists
and old-line greenbackers want very
very cheap money. Everybody feels
that when the money rate Is showed
up 1t is an arbitrary damper on pros
perity.
But we cannot have both low rate
on money and stable level OF prices.
We can have one or the other-nOt
both together for any length OF time.
A low rate of money means an In
hated price level. A stable price
level means a fluctuating rate OF dis
count. That is, the public must learn
to look at the price level instead Of
the bank reserves, as their measure
of expectation for rise or fall Of the
value of money.
Now this fact makes me feel that a
mistake is made II we do not fully ex-
plain to the public the power already
exercised by the bank rate and the
Federal Reserve Board and Reserve
banks. Our bankers and economists
see the bad use that Is likely to be
made of political control If banking
and currency and they try to make the
people believe that so intricate a CUES
I,0 LOT IN
AS matter Of fact our present
methods encourage the very thing we
wish to avoid. We let everybody be-
lieve that low rates on money are nee
essary for prosperity and then when
bank reserves run low on account OF
the effects Of this belief, we are sud-
denly compelled to jump the rates to
protect the reserves. We get both
cycle of prices and cycle OF bank
rates, whereas, If the public under
stood that the rise Of bank rates
should not wait until bank reserves
are low, but the rates should be ad-
yanced several months ahead for the
very purpose of preventing fictitious
prosperity with it's inflated price level,
then the public might be satisfied to
support the administrative regulations
which raise the rates at time when
there seems to be no need of doing
it.-John r. Commons, University OF
Wisconsin.
