Says Initiation Just Begun

Many claim that in America in
f1ation has already failed; the truth
is that it has only just begun. 1t
has, in fact, taken a year to prepare
the groundwork for the great and
necessary expansion Of credit which
is now being maneuvered.
Through rise of, say, 10 per cent
in the money balances held by the
public may not Immediately prove
effective, a rise of 25 per cent may,
and Of so per cent most certainly
will have the desired effect Of fore
ing the possessors of idle balances to
spend them, and thus start the vir-
tuous circle of rising prices, rising
wages and rising profit margins,
which constitute recovery.
"Whether or not there will be an
other huge slump after the forth
coming boom will depend largely up
on the skill with which the money
and bank credit of the country are
managed"
