THE NATIONAL INCOME

President Roosevelt says that the goal of all
the efforts to re-establish the economic sound
ness Of the nation should be to bring the nation
al income up to one hundred billion. dollars
year. There is no doubt whatever that if that
amount of money could be produced and dis
tributed annually by manufacture, agriculture,
mining, transportation, public utilities, build
ing and all of the other ways in which income
is produced and earned we would be sitting on
top Of the world The important question is
how to do it.
Our largest national income for which there
are any trustworthy estimates was in 1929,
when the total turnover of goods and money
reached little more than 80 billions. BY 1882
the national income had dropped to less than
half of that figure. It has been climbing since
then, but has not yet reached 65 billions.
It is difficult to think of any goal why the
national income should not climb rapidly to
the figure suggested by the President. If econ
omists are be believed, all that is holding
us back is restrictions upon the free play of
private enterprise which have been imposed by
the Federal government in well-meant but
unsuccessful efforts to restore prosperity by arti
fetal and political means.
( All that capital and industry need to start
them working is reasonable assurance that
they will be encouraged, rather than discourag-
ed, in their efforts to produce more wealth and
give employment to more workers, and that
if they do succeed in making profits those pro-
fits will not be confiscated by excessive and
arbitrary taxes. Once the feeling becomes gen.
eral that enterprise is to have free play, within
reasonable limitations for the protection of la
Dor against exploitation and the public from
extortion, nothing can stop the American in
come from shooting up to the 100 billion mark
and past it. .7. 3.
