PRICE CONCEkLMENT

(Palo Alto Times)
President Roosevelt is reported to be
considering plan to provide farmers a
new subsidy rather than see farm prices
increased, in the event he is unable to
keep prices down by other means.
The fairer plan, the more honest plan,
however, would be to have people pay
their increases at the market place, rath-
er than to the tax collector The subsidy,
when invoked to keep market prices down,
has no motive but to delude the people
into the belief they are getting something
for less than what they are actually pay
ing. Moreover the higher costs are dis
tributed more equitably when paid direct
" by the consumers upon purchase OF
goods than when spread over all tax
payers = consumers and nonconsumers
alike What is the justice, let us ask, in
compelling the nonconsumer to absorb
part of the bill incurred by the consumer.
