INCREASE IN UNEMPLOYED
MONEY

Unspent and unemployed money
in the United States during the sec
ond quarter of l943 amounted to
rs billion dollars, compared to the
IT billion dollars in the second
quarter, 1912, the Office of War
Information said in its first quar-
terly report on economical stabiliza-
ton. In spite of paying more taxes
and buying more War Bonds,
Americans still were able to build
UP store of unspent money. Should
holders of this money now begin
to bid against each other for scarce
products, it would make the job OF
holding the line against rising
prices enormously more difficult.
