SUBSIDIES AND INITIATION

MANY FALSE arguments have been used to op-
-'A pose the subsidies being paid by the govern
ment to stabilize the prices of essential com
modities.
But the siiest argument which has ever been
used is the assertion that subsidies themselves
bring about imitation.
Many persons who ought to know better have
recently made this statement. They argue that
in spending one or two billion dollars year on
subsidies the government puts additional money
into circulation. With more money in circulation
prices must increase, and so imitation must result
they say.
= What these people forget to mention is what
would happen to the amount Of money in circula-
ton if the government did not spend money on
subsidies. In that case, the amount Of money IN
circulation would Increase much more and much
faster than it does now.
First of ALL the government would have to in
crease its own spending substantially. AS long as
the war lasts, the government will be the largest
purchaser of all kinds of goods. If Congress
turns thumbs down on subsidies, prices will go up
and the governments war expenditures and other
outlays will increase proportonately. Instead OF
the relatively small sum it now spends for sub
sides, the government will be forced to put new
money into circulation in large quantities to cover
its increased expenditures.
Second, private enterprises will also be driven
to increase the amount of money in circulation,
since higher living costs must lead to wage in
creases and higher prices for materials.
Third, millions of private citizens, unable to
meet their increased living costs through wage
increases, will be forced to draw on their savings.
This will still further increase the amount Of
money in circulation.
The combined effect of all these moves will
necessarily be much greater than the increase OF
the amount of money in circulation caused by the
payment of subsidies.
If there is crack in the ceiling of your house,
you may repair it or not you wish. If you let it
go, the crack will grow larger and you will even
tually have to spend much more to fix it than you
would if you had acted promptly.
The same thing may be said of subsidies as a
means Of maintaining price ceilings. If the price
ceilings are allowed to collapse it will cost
us much more to repair the damage than it
would have cost to repair the crack in the first
place
1t is this additional spending, and not the cost
of subsidies which will bring imitation.
