NO BOON IN
CHEAP MONEY

One thing that has to be given up
is the idea that cheap money Is al
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
fated price level. A stable price
level means a fuctuating 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 a rise or fall OF the
value of money.
Now this fact makes me feel that
mistake is made If 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 ques'
IT, x.o,,et ho loft RI pYnprfg
AS a matter Of fact our present
methods encourage the very thing we
wish to avoid. We let everybody be-
lieye 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 a
cycle Of prices and a 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 its 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.

The Great SC0URGE
OF HALF TRUTHS
BY JOHN LAKEWOOD

A soap-boxer pointed at great
factory. who built that factory
Workmenl" he yelled. "Who run the
machines? Workmen! Who get the
profits? capitaIists!"
The soap-boxer told a half truth
that amounted to a whole lie. His
listeners did not know that that par.
ticular factory, typical Of thousands
of others, was a complete refutation
of the lief only the other half OF
the truth were told.
1t is true the factory was Capital
lxed-for O. million dollars. The net
profits gave annual dividends of 8
per cent, or 100000, to the stockhold-
ers. All that was true.
But 1t was also true that the mil
lion dollar capital was divided up
into ten thousand shares Of 500
each. The ownership of these shares
was distributed among about one
thousand people. Several hundred Of
them were workmen in the factory.
They were saving out of their weekly
wages and buying shares on the IN
stalment plan. They were Capitalists.
1t was likewise true that shares
were also owned by workmen in other
factories, by clerical workers and by
small merchants. A good many were
also owned by widows and orphans
whose modest estates had been wise
ly invested for them by their bank
ers. They were Capitalists.
It was also true that the factory
corporation had issued a million dol
lars in bonds to raise funds to buy
the material and pay the wages of
workmen to build the factory. These
bonds were owned as investments not
only by persons of wealth but also by
many people of moderate means who
had saved out Of their wages and sal
aries. They were Capitalists.
And 1t was also true that out Of the
receipts of the factory, before a cent
was taken to pay interest on the
bonds, before penny was used to
pay dividends on the stock, good
many dollars were taken to pay
wages to the workmen.
The workmen were Capitalists too.
They were investing their strength
and their talents and their skill In the
factory-they were getting their divi.
dends out of its earnings as we'll ~

Riches Of the Ruhr Basin.

The Kuhr basin in Germany, ex
tending 80 miles to the east Of the
Rhine, and practically the center or
headquarters Of industrial Germany,
Is one Of the richest coal and iron re-
gions in the world, remarks the, De-

coal field, is the seat Of the great
Krupp works (at Essen), and contains
member OF other manufacturing
towrs. Ruhr not only takes the lead
in Germany in the production Of iron
and steel implements and machinery,
but II also produces great quantities Of
salt and textiles. With only 40 per
cent of Its coal fields being worked,
the Ruhr valley before the World war
was producing 100000 tons of coal
year, and it also produced 100000
tons of pig iron.
The valley is naturally of great i'm
