Although accepting regrets and

from both sides in Spain, the United
States looked to-day to further COM
munications from Spanish Loyalists
and rebels to clear up the identity
Of the tri-motored monoplane which
attempted to bomb the destroyer
Kane.
The American Government, at the
same time, moved to erect new safe
guards around its policy Of "scrupu-
lous" non interference In SPANS revo-

American shipping lines to avoid
dangerous" ports in that country.
Cargo Reflections Urged.

The State Department made public
informal replies from both sides to
the American Governments vigorous
protests over the attack on the Kane

high command expressed regret over
the incident and asserted they lacked
information that any plane belonging
to their respective sides was involved

money from the great canal OF ma
tional gross turnover, irrigate thor
oily our present unhealthy, thirsty
industrial and mercantile plants,
and then return to the great. ever
flowing channel to be used again
and again.
There is no remote likelihood that
the national resources and produc-
tive capacity cannot amply supply
the greatly increased capacity to
consume. which would result from a
restored and augmented buying
power: not does it appear likely that
the supply of labor will prove too
small for the job. Competition, al
ways serving the consumer. would
operate to keep prices pared down
so that every concern in business
for profit would be enabled to par
ticipate in the increased business
volume.
The causes of initiation and price
pyramiding are definitely known
and have been for many hundreds
of years The Townsend plan does
not embody any of these recognized
inflationary factors.
All great forward movements
which would benefit the masses of
people are invariably greeted with
shouts of alarm by the conserva-
tives and the privileged few. The
reactionaries predict dire things
and even ultimate doom with every
such proposal. The first man to
propose the abolition of child labor
was regarded as public enemy and
suffered such abuse and calumny
that he died of a broken heart.
History is full of such examples. Yet
the prophets of doom have not as
yet given any valid reason for the
prediction of sky-rocketing prices
under the Townsend Plan-prob-
ably because there is none.
Mrs. H. C. Noel, having just re-
turned from her vacation, express
ed her pleasure of again being with
the club, and told of her visit in

meet every day in the week.

Case was one of the principal talk

o. A. r. P.
(By Committee)
Youth for Work Age for Leisure

The prediction of wild initiation
resulting from the enactment of the
Townsend plan has been made re-
peatedly and regularly. A picture is
painted of sky-rocketing prices. with
a loaf of bread costing as much as
one dollar, and shoes thirty times
that sum. Automobiles, it is con-
tended, would be out of reach for
the average man, and the nation
would be so bathed in money that
it would have no value. Such pre-
dictions have shaken the faith of
more than one proponent of the
plan, and the assurance that $500
per month as an annuity would not
buy more than the meager allow
ance under the Administrations So
cial security act has caused many
minutes of earnest worry In many
minds.
In view of this, it would seem
wise to examine into this thing
called initiation to see what the
causes of it are, what brings it
about, and an earnest scrutiny
should be made to see if the dire
predictions of stratosphere prices
under the Townsend plan have any
basis in probable fact.
The actual truth is that infla-
ton comes only when the supply OF
money is greater than the supply
of those things which people wish
to buy. It comes only when the la
Dor supply and the manufacturing
plants are inadequate to meet the
demand for goods and services.
When a nation begins to print
money, there is a danger of exceed
ing the limit of the national credit.
but no other danger attends it.
Large government spending, with
the issuance of bonds placed with
the banks in order to secure these
large funds, is about the same in
principle as printing and clrculat-
ing the actual money. In fact many
monetary experts and a rapidly
growing number of thinking people
believe that the printing OF new
money instead of the issuance of a
constantly pyramiding amount OF
bonds would be of much greater
benefit to the masses of people.
Bonds carry interest which must
be paid. Newly printed money does
not. Bonds do not circulate, but
rest in vaults, drawing interest
which benefits the few. but which
all of the people must be taxed to
pay.
The Townsend plan contemplates
neither the printing of new money,
nor the issuance of bonds. 1t will
merely divert a certain amount of
