which cursed the country. Mr..
Baruch therefore concluded that
the prices caused the imitation.
Therefore, the way to check the
war imitation and its profits and
Embellishments is to check the
high prices. The way to check
the prices is to forbid them.
MIR. PARUCH is quite right in
lNl believing that the govern
ment must exercise some control
over prices. But after all the gov
eminent can not work miracles.
It tried to check prices in 1917.
But the prices went up just the
same, and the government had to
acquiesce in the rises-even issue
orders authorizing them.
The high prices, of course, as
any economist-old or new school
can tell you, do not produce the
imitation. 1t is the initiation which
produces the high prices, the high
prOIlGS, INe uISn wages.
And what produces the infa-
ton? The imitation is caused by
the sudden unlooSing into the
market of vast new floods of pur-
chasing power. The instant war
is declared millions of men arc
summoned into the armed forces.
There at a stroke is the biggest
kind of big business. But these
three or four million men can not
60 to war barehanded. They must
have uniforms, shoes, helmets,
gas masks, guns, powder and ball,
cannon, shells, ships, airplanes on
a gigantic scale.
This means another five or six
or more million men to make
these things.
IMMEDIATELY these millions
i of soldiers and employees in the
war supply plants are being paid
with government funds - new
money-fresh supplies of income
new purchasing power which
they carry over into the peace
time market to buy luXuries,
amusement. clothing, furniture
and necessities on more elab-
crate scale.
The peace time industries are
soon short of men because mill
lions are drawn into the war in
duStrieS.
Presently we have strange,
sinister, evil kind of prosperity
which results from the fact that
the nation is at war and must
spend countless billions to fight
its battles.
You are now near to the answer
to the question. The imitation
consists in the great flood of new
spending power. Where does this
flood come from? In war it
invariably comes from one source
borrowed funds. In the last
war the government spent $33,-
900, 100000. Of this it borrowed
$22, 1000, 100000. Out Of every ten
dollars we spent for the war we
borrowed seven.
When the government pours
$22, 00O,000,0 900 of borrowed money
into a great new war industry
and these billions are taken out
by the war workers into the peace
time industries spent there, no
amount of government control
can keep prices from rising.

A NOUeIty for the Babe

A NEW YORK magistrate lost patience with that
L N Babe Ruth who thrilling to the feel of a
fast underfoot and sentenced him to a day in
Jail for speeding But it only nominal term
behind fgurative bars. The Jail-birds day, like
the School-kds day, ended at 3 in the afternoon
and Ruth arrived at the ballyard by taxi in time
to take turn two at bat. Memory doesn't say
whether he hit a home run but he probably did
He almost always smacked EN- when the drama
on.
Other athletes tried to match strides with him
socially and came down with chronic hangover, one
by one, to be traded away and eventually waived
out and forgotten His chassis seemed i'll suited
to the sort of life he led for he was inclined to
bulge in the center and his ankles were very small
But though he fell sick of many ailments including
scare of heart trouble, and horizontalized for
long periods sometimes for operations, he never
broke leg. And his talents have lasted him eight
ten, dozen years after his old playmates of the
night Shift became names opposite dead STA
tistics in dog-eared record books in the sport de-
partmentS of the newspaper shops.
So if it is true that he stays home nights and
always counts his change at the newsstand now
consider that this the only novelty left in life
Everything else there is to do he did years ago.
