THREAT OF INITIATION

Most of this talk about imitation is
] about as hard to understand as the
soblins and the bogeys that will
get you If You don't watch out" Ac-
cording to the dictionary initiation is
state of being inflated"
From its standpoint as a political
scarecrOw imitation is threat in
connection with what the President
Of the United States can do at any
time under emergency powers that
were conferred on him by Congress-
to increase or decrease the value OF
money, and thereby bring about yio-
lent changes in the value of the dol
lar. History shows that imitation al
ways produces a rise in the price
level
If you want to look into your own
personal business affairs you will
perhaps discover that there is plenty
of imitation in your budget estimates,
right now. You are apt to find evil
dences of spells and spasms of in
iiatiOn at different times which YOU
may have overlooked. In the husi-
ness world today there are increased
demands for certain manufactured |
goods and natural products, fncIud- |
ing farm crops. Even if you can't !
understand all the reasons, you do /
know that prices have been con- /
stantly moving-usually upwards. /
The Government has been in the
habit of using all its devices and
powers of control over the lives and
affairs of its people, and these noli-
cies will be continued regardless of
We have peace, or war. If
there is a Presidential decree chang
ing the price of gold and silver, or if
char ges of violation of the anti-trust
laws crush some institutions, or bus
inesses, or IF a thousand unexpected
possibilities really happen, there
might he serious troubles from infia-
ion. Otherwise little infiations won't
hurt you because you don't see them.

VOTERS RESPONSIBLE FOR WASTE

It's a rare person who doesn't consider price when
he makes purchase. Whether it be home, auto

whether he is getting his moneys worth.
But take thousand million hundred million
such otherwise sensible people, in their collective role
citizens and taxpayers and they exhibit entirely diff
ferent point of view when spending their money for
governmental purposes. Any glib politician local
spending of tremendous of tax money for local
betlerment. Whether it be bridge, park, sewer,
playground anything else they endorse whoeheart-
edy irrespective of how much costs, how little it
may be needed There, in NUTSHELL is of the pri-
mary reasons for desperate fiscal situation Shrewd
buyers that we Individuals have proven our
selves to be suckers when il to spending tax
money.
It's easy enough to blame the politicians for this and
certainly they have been factor in favor of reckless
prodlgalty. But the fact remains that elect the
politicians and they can't keep their jobs without our ap-
proval The public gets the kind of representation it
deserves the people want to court national bank
ruptcy as they apparently have the past the politicians
VIII gladly follow their lead and vote for every spending
measure that comes If the people want economy and
local independence they can have it.
The responsibility straight home to the voters
In the long run, they make all public policies they
