The Caldwell tribune. [volume] (Caldwell, Idaho Territory [Idaho]) 1883-1928, 1924-01-15
By GEORGE E. ROBERT

The year which has jus; closed
has seen production IN the United
States in nearly all lines either a,
the highest level ever reached or very
close thereto. The yield OF farm
crops was slightly below that Of 1922.
but the Official valuation for 1920 Is
SS.322.6o5,O00 against S7.+49. $4,000 in
1922. This increase however. was
largely in cotton and corn. and the
figures OF these crops are somewhat
misleading as indicators Of prosper
ity. inasmuch as in the case OF cot
ton they represent a high price for a
small yield grown on a large acreage.
and in the case OF corn the crop Is
mainly fed on the farms. Agricul-
ture in many localities is still abor-
ing under difficulties mainly due to
unbalanced price relations.
Since the outbreak Of the great
war the industrial and business si,uat
ton has experienced many violent
changes. some OF them highly slim
ulating and some OF them very de-
pressing. II is in the nature OF things
that such violent changes cannot be
all in one direction. As we get farth-

acterisiic. The price movements have

During the war the demand for

strove to increase their output. Tire
production is increased by factory

crs. however. were tempted TO increase
their " production BY buying stock
cattle from each other, the effects OF
which were { o run up prices and get
many OF them deeply into debt. When
the demand for beef for the armies
fell of and industrial depression
spread over the world. beef consump-
ton fell off prices fell and stock-grow-
ers who had borrowed money to Pay
for cattle at high prices have been
obliged TO sell their herds in markets
overloaded with offerings. The sit
uation was unbalanced one way when
the growers were bidding against each
other in their efforts to increase their
herds and unbalanced the other way
when they were trying to sell in
markets where sellers greatly out
numbered buyers.
Growth of Hog Market
Corn and hogs are commodities
closely related in the marketing pro
cess and in values. For several years
prior to 1923 the equilibrium between
them was lost. hogs bringing rola-
lively higher prices. The effect Of
this situation was to stimulate the
breeding of more hogs, until II the
past year the number marketed was
81 per cent larger than in 1922. This
turned the situation over. with the
balance the other way.
There are other cases that might
be mentioned 10 illustrate the import
ance Of balanced relations between
the various independent factors in
industry and to show that the adj
justment and regulation Of these re-
ations must be managed by the parties
Immediately concerned. The entire
system OF interchange by which the
wants Of society are supplied is re-
by the Illustration Of prices.
Over-development anywhere is cor
-ected by 4 fall OF prices and under
development is corrected by a rise
IF prices. and all this regulation is
accomplished for more effectively by
he free play Of natural forces than
{ can be done by government regu-
The latter would require a
dictatorship not only over prices but
'ver all industry. regulating individu-
! activities and doing away with in
.ividual judgment and individual in
dependence.
None OF the cases OF maladjust-
nent mentioned above have been
aused by governmental action .ex-
ept in the general sense that gov
rnments were responsible for the
var. and governments cannot cure
hem. Any attempt by the govern
to remedy them would inter
src with the natural Establishments
nd delay recovery.

reaching approximately $500.00O.OO0.
The greatest achievement OF the
year has been the demonstration that
the United States can enjoy so large
a degree OF prosperity notwithstand-
ing the unsettled conditions in Eu-
rope. The record OF 1923 can be re-
peatcd ii the American people but
have the courage to proceed with the
development OF their sources and the
equipment OF their industries as the
have done in the past year. There
is no lack OF work to be done. The
chief occupation OF the American peo-
pie is that OF supplying their own
wants. but that their foreign trade
is Of stable character the sustained
exports OF the last two years have
shown. Our trade outside OF Europe
is growing. The balance between ag-
riculture and the other industries Is
in the way OF being restored. and if
we will be satisfied with steady bust
ness, without a boom, there is good
reason to expect that our hopes will
be gratiied in 1924.
The Industrial Equilibrium
The features OF the present situa-
ton which are unsatisfactory are all
due 10 the disturbance OF the indus
trial equilibrium.
The tire industry for example has
been suffering from over expansion.
Fundamentally, the industry is in a
strong position, for the number Of
automobiles in use has been rapidly
increasing, but the tire business has
been over-stimulated by its own pros
perity. 1t suffered in the general
slump of 1921, but the unfavorable
conditions OF late are due to its over
development. The situation affords an
illustration OF the industrial troubles
Tor which the various branches OF
industry are themselves responsible.
md which can be remedied by them
selves alone.
The copper-producing industry has
pee in an unsatisfactory state in the
last half OF the year. with an output
over the demand to weigh
the market. One reason for
this is that while consumption in the
