PULSE OF
THE PU BLIC
WE MUST HALT
ALL INITIATION

Editor, The Times: All who
have some understanding of
what makes the wheels 60
around are now becoming
alarmed because nothing is be-
ing done TO prevent initiation.
We know that something must
be done soon, or prices Will soar.
This il only simple arithmetic.
When a nation is producing less
goods than the people can buy,
but the people are given more
money with which to buy the
products, prices must rise to
equal the purchasing power.
Here is a simple remedy that
would greatly help to prevent
initiation. II would be practical,
but perhaps not politically expe-
dent. The trouble Is that too
much that is practical is not
good politics. For what profiteth
A politician If he save a nation
from destruction, but lose the
election
Why not force all Of the en-
ployees in industry and govern
ment, receiving higher wages, TO
take certain percentages IN
government bonds? These bonds
must be made non-negotiable.
They could make some of these
defense bonds fall due in three
years, some In four, and some in
five years. This would force the
workers to save a portion of
their wages to have and spend
when business will need more
purchasing power. This would
not be sacrifice. II is because
the government is borrowing the
money TO pay the cost Of this
defense production that the
wages remain high. If they
should tax the people high
enough 10 raise enough money to
paw for il as il IL produced,
wages would be rather low.
can not understand why II is
that in times of emergency or
war some OF the people are
forced 10 make sacrifices, while
others are allowed to write their
own pay check. Remember that
when these boys who are now IN
army camps. and receiving s2l
to $50 a month. get out they will
have to help pay for this high
cost of production. Their wages
will be lower. and the tax collec-
tor will take quite slice Of Il.
