BY BRUCE CATTON

"TNFLATION," by Donald 2
Il Woodward and Marc A Rose
IS a timely little book on a very
live subject, and it presents the in
i1atIoniSt'S argument briefly and
without undue heat - despite the
TACT that. as the authors remark
no one can discuss either initiation
or defiation in the light of cold and
p~asSionless logic.
After tracing the history of in
fiatlonary moves in the past. and
explaining just what imitation is and
what 1t is apt to mean in the life
OF the ordinary man, the authors
calmly remark that under our ira
dltlonal monetary system there is
no logical end to a deflation.
Most of our money. they point
out, is credit money. When prices
TALL, they simply destroy money.
Every time a man finds himself
unable to pay a debt. every time
a bank has to call a loan, a GER
tain amount of money is destroyed.
Deflation, in other words, is self
accelerating, to a degree previously
unheard of. Shall we scale down
debts to adjust our price levels?
That is simply a euphemism for
destroying them, and if we do that
we reduce our supply of money still
further. which forces prices down
anew, which destroys more debts
and so on. without end.
Imitation, they say, is the only
conceivable way out. Furthermore,
the new money must be put into
circulation, either through a vast
dole, a subsidy to industry or a great
public works program.
Some one must get huge sums
into the consumers hands, and no
one but Uncle Sam can do it.

THE DANGER OF GOVERNMENTAL
.. RELIEF

The new farm bill is swinging
slowly into action. The government will
undertake to balance production and de-
mand, to improve the farmers financial
condition, to ease the burden of mort
cages, and to raise the prices Of his pro-
duce.
While this may be temporarily
beneficial it will be permanently harmful.
II the farmer as an Individual, comes to
depend on government to solve his faults
and smooth his path. That is always the
trouble with governmental aid measures,
no matter how carefully they are drawn
they are apt to create a feeling of de-
pendence in the beneficiary that leaves
him helpless when aid has been taken
away.
The wise farmer will recognize the
bill for what it is-an effort to carry him
through a critical period, and give him a
hand in Strengthening out his troubles, 50
that he may stand on his W feet there
after. Lasting farm progress comes from
the farmers own effort. 1t must be the
reflection of his own will, his own aores-
%slveness, his own courage, if it is to be
permanent.
During the next few years there is
one agency that will be Of vital import
ance-the farm cooperative. 1t is the
agency through which the individual
farmer, in company with his neighbors.
may fight his own battles and win his
own victories. Long after governmental
relief IS no longer necessary, the O
atlve Will remain. No matter how often
we may change our ideas of what attitude
government should take toward the farm
er, the cooperative idea is fixed and will
not be d~islodged. And this is the time for
farmers to work their hardest in advanc-
ing the interest Of their c~o-operatives.

EMPTYING THE POORHOUSE

There is one vastly important
phase of life insurance that cannot be ex-
pressed in statistics-its influence on So
cial progress.
Economic security is the arbiter of
happiness, of contentment, Of an i'm
proved civilization. That does not mean
the kind of security that makes for lazi-
ness and industrial torpor. It means the
kind that guarantees, through ones own
efforts, enough to live on for oneself and
ones dependents after the age of great
est earning capacity has passed.
Life insurance fills this need per-
fectly. Through the annuity form Of
policy, one car take a share of what one
is earning now and invest it in an income
to start whenever one wishes. Or, those
who wish to do SO, may "buy" the income
by paying up a lump sum outright. There
are thousands of persons in charitable
homes now, or standing in bread lines,
who could have done this once, but pre-
ferred to take a chance with their money.
An overwhelming majority of people be-
come dependents in old age-because they
learned the value of protection too late.
The annuity has long been a favor
tie form of insurance in Europe, where it
has been used for centuries. Of late it has
grown in favor in this country. The ex-
perience of the past few years has shown
millions of Americans that at least part
of their earnings should be invested with
an eye to safety alone-not great profits.

TUSKEGEE'S VIOLENT DEATH

member of a distinguished Winston
Salem family, Professor Russell Atkin,
vice-principal of the school founded by
DR.. Booker Z. Washington. Within less
than a year and a half three attaches of
the Alabama school have suffered loss Of
their lives by violence. For the first time
in its renowned history Tuskegee has be-
come the scene of crime investigations

OPPORTUNITY IS KNOCKING

Property owners who have been

In 1929 a year Of inflated pros
sperity - the total tax Of the American
people amounted to 16 per Get of their in
comes.
In 1881 a year of bleak depres-
sion-it amounted to % per cent. The
current year maybe the most expensive
in u history, with the exception Of the
var period.
How much Of the increase in the
cost Of government, federal, state and To-
cal, can be laid to waste, is problematical.
But there is no question but that it runs
into the hundreds of millions, for there
are scores Of bureaus, commissions and
inflated governmental ~payrolls, many of
which simply duplicate the work Of 9TH
erS.
We have permitted the govern
ment to go into various tax-exempt bust
ness ventures in competition with the
livelihoods Of private citizens who are
forced to pay the taxes to maintain the
competition.
More and more money is going in
to taX-exempt government bonds instead
Of taxable labor employing investments.
The result is increased unemployment and
distress.
History shows many examples of
taxing a people until they repudiate tax
obligations. Unless all units of govern
ment retrench, it is not impossible to
force such a tax crisis in our own country.

UNSEEN

In an advertising folder issued by
n Of the standard manufacturers of
fire engines, this phrase appears: equal
ity extends to parts unseen"
That phrase is worth thinking ov-
er. 1t indicates the difference between
good and inferior articles of a hundred
sorts. Specifically the cheap watch looks
like the fine watch-the difference is
where you can't see it. And that is true Of
radios, motor cars, musical instruments,
commodities of all kinds-almost every
thing we use.
In protection of life and property
from fire, this unseen quality is a great
deal more important than it is in most
other things. If a watch stops it is annoy
ing, but it isn't apt to be vital to life and
happiness. The same thing is true of an
automobile, truck or radio. But if a fire
engine fails at the wrong moment, the re-
suit may be the destruction Of lives and
hundreds of thousands of dollars worth
of property.
There are three manufacturers of
standard fire apparatus in the United
States whose products are known and re-
spected by every fire marshal, every in
surance rating bureau, every person and
agency connected with fire prevention
and control. Their regulations extend
back through generations of manufacture
ing fire fighting machines in which quail
lty has always extended to parts unseen.

AS a matter of fact, utility rate
making is not complicated. The rate
charged amounts to the cost of providing
power facilities for the customer through
which he may obtain service, whether he
uses i or not, plus the cost Of the actual
power used, plus a reasonable profit
limited by law. The cost of producing and
distributing power does not change rapid
ly because capital turnover in the utility
industry is very small-about once in five
years, where manufacturing industries
turn capital over once, twice and some
times oftener each year.
The utility is not allowed to lower
its standards of service when times get
bad-it cannot close down plants as can
non-service industries. It may lose half
its business but it must continue at full
efficiency to serve the remaining half.
1t is not true that utilities are max
ing large profits. Public regulation pre-
vents that. Many companies are making
no profit at all, although maintaining
maximum service. THY are all paying
constantly mounting tax bills from dim
inished revenues tax bills that threat
en- to eliminate the investors return en-
tirely. If the public is misled by vote-seek-
ing political criticism Of the utilities it
will suffer in the long run because Of
crippled electric expansion and increased
taxes.

A BACK TO THE FARM PLAN
WORKING III GEORGIA

COLUMBUS, Ga.-(CNS) 49, The
back to the farm movement which Is
being sponsored by both the people of
this city and Muscogee County, is
helping to relieve the unemployment
problem. The plan recently inaugur-
ated hereabouts has to date placed
more than 200 families, consisting Of
more than 1000 persons on the farms
in the county.
In 1910 there was a total of 1,019
farms in Muscogee County. of which
SOB were operated by Negro farmers
These Negro farms had a land acre
age of 39,073 acres. The general
exodus of labor, both skilled and un-
skilled, from the South to the North,
attracted by high wages drained this
locality of her skilled workmen and
farmhands 50 that in 925 the total
number Of farms dropped to 800 in
number of which 232 were operated
by Negroes.
1t is now estimated that the num-
Der Of Negro farms in Muscogee Co.
number some 325 a gain Of nearly 100
since 1925 and a few more than were
reported in 1880, when BIT Negro
farms had 22,004 acres in land valued
at $479,3
The "back to the farm" movement
in Muscogee County has attracted the
attention Of the Federal Government.
In a visit to the county William "A.
Hartman of the Division of Land Eco
Monies, Washington, expressed his
deep interest and took with him back
to Washington a statement of the
work accomplished.
Besides playing its part in the farm
project Columbus has ruled that men
who seek municipal relief must, IL
they are physically fit, perform some
no%n-injurious service for five hours
each working day. IF men whose
families are need refuse to perform
this service, police make a charge
against them of vagrancy and loiter-
ing. Records Of each case are kept,
and periodical Investigations are made
to prevent, as far as possible, "dead-
beats" from taking advantage Of the
abnormal times.

competitors out Of business. A few such
selfish hog it all merchants force an en-
tire line OF business like the grocery bust
ness or the gasoline business to u on a
rulnous basis. The plan would be to refuse
70 such tradesmen a license to operate
their business. 1t is this unrestricted. I'M
controlled competition which is the root
OF much of the present business democrat
isation.
Many Of I'll Omaha Firms have
already declared their willingness Of lv-
ing up to the new business code. Let lis
see to it that these pledges are not mere
lip service. The problem of enforcing
these codes is up to the general public. It
ought to boycott every business firm
which openly or under cover fails to CO.
operate with the government and with
fair business.
As the outlook is today, the Repeal
OF the Eighteenth Amendment within less
h a a year is a certainty. The leaders Of
the Vets S the cities that the re-
turn of Booze will mean such an enor-
nous liquor revenue to the Government
that the other forms Of taxes can be miti-
gated. Personally | think it is a sad day
for the United States when it opens it's
front door to Whiskey again. With the
permitted whiskey there will come either
a new appearance Of the whiskey saloon
or a doubling of the present plague of
speakeasies. A regular campaign Of pro-
paganda will set in to train men and wo-
men into becoming whiskey soaks. The
same method of advertising will be used
which taught u women to smoke cigar
cites; politicians will be bribed to favor
the liquor interests. We shall get our fill
of personal liberty and most likely pay
heavily for it in money and in tears.

per in Kansas City is a gesture in the
right direction. | am as a general rule

new contagion Of racketeering must be
stopped before it assume enormous pro-

done this service to the world, that it has
shown that at the present time an eff
ficient scheme to make possible world
wide free trade is a idle pipe dream.
