NEW DEAL SCARCITY THEORY
AND VITAL FOODS NEEDS

The public read with amazement the
other day a statement from one of the
many food regulative bureaus at Wash
inpton that there would be a greater
shortage of butter before this year is out
and that the situation would be even
worse, extending on into 1945.
And on top of that there comes an
appea to dairy herd owners in one of
the nations largest metropolitan districts
TO reduce their herds sharply "in order
TO prevent the price of milk from drop
ping" In setting out the asserted Situa-
tion. this communication held that the
area could not assimilate any more dairy
cows without disturbing the price level
And there we have the criss-cross situ-
alton in which the consumer is the VIC
tim. and under present conditions OF reg
ulation and sitting of free flow and dis
tribution of products, there Is no alterna-
tive than to either go without milk prod
ucts. especially butter, or see the pro-
ducers themselves bankrupted.
1t is a reminder of the whole botched-
up business in this one vital industry
through the ignorant and dictatorial poll
cies of bureaus and bureau creators. Not

The much vaunted experts down

know is that scarcity keeps up prices.
And no wonder Each and every time
a serious situation has arisen relative to

WEATHER TAKES OWN HAND
IN DOING SOMETHING

Various celebrities have been credited
with uttering that well known SAYING
eve all talk about the weather, but no
one ever does anything about 1t. Some
researchers contend that the observation
was one of Mark Twain's. Other as reli-
able sources say a noted editor was re-
sponsible
Be these arguments over authorship as
thev NAV. it will be conceded pretty gen
erallv in Imperial Valley that some one
did something about or to the weather
this summer. When old-timers grudglng-
lv admit "there never was summer ike
this one. that settles it Unfortunately
there are no scientists available at the
moment to explain it all, if indeed, they
can do the trick.
Verify twas a short summer. Temper
ature records the country over show
many areas and localities with longer
runs of high temperatures and IN some
instances with higher mercury readings
than in the Valley.
There is some support to theories ad-
vanced from time to time by some OF the
country's savants to the effect that there
are positive and indiSputable reasons for
gradual. and even quite sudden changes
in weather and temperature conditions IN
great areas.
But what we started out to say, some
thing was done about the weather this
summer and if no one rises up to take
credit. we shall assume that the weather
itself finally got tired of hearing talk
and did something about 1t.

BY BEARDSLEY RUML
Written for United Press

Many people assume that the only
purpose which taxes serve is to
raise money to pay the cost of gov
ernment. Actually the kind of tax
program we have also can affect
such things as how much a dollar
will buy Initiation or 6eflation,
how people will spend their money,
and most important, how many jobs
there will be and whether wages
will be higher or lower.
That was what Paul Hoffman,
chairman of the committee Of eco
nomic development. meant recently
when he said, Too often in the
past our tax programs have been
framed in terms of what will lose
the fewest votes. The vital ques-
ton should be, What kind of tax
program will lose the feWest jcbs?' :"
This is the vital question which the
C.E.D.'s high employment tax plan
seeks to answer.
Imperial Valley press., 1944-09-20
FIRST SUCH MOVE

To my knowledge this is the first
attempt ever made to oevelop an
overall federal tax system from
the basic point of view of encourag-
ing employment and increasing ma
tional income, as opposed merely to
collect revenue from the income
and jobs already existing. To me it
is a highly realistic and practical
approach.
1t is a matter of simple common
sense that we will be better able
to pay Is to 18 billion dollars in
post war-taxes out of a national
income of, let us say, 14O billion
dollars a year than out of the Scant
100 billion dollars which was our
"recorC" national income in 1910.
A progressive tax policy thus be-
comes both a means and an end.
and therefore a doubly important
element in our present job of post
war planning. A tax plan which en-
courages investment, greater pro-
duCtion. higher wages, and more Jobs
will be a means of reaching a ma
tional income of Sl40 billions an
nually. And only if we achieve such
an end will we be able to carry
our postwar tax load. Nor should
sight be lost of the extra dividend
paid by such a high level of pro-
ductive employment in that it will
cut down additional tax costs which
would be required for pump prim-
ing and the carrying of a large
number of unemployed.
Also, the simple fact of a high
tax and ample feceral revenue does
not necessarily mean a healthy"
economy. To devise a fair tax sys-
TEN that gives broad encouragement
to expanded production and employ
ment, we should then be guided by
two basic tax consio oerations-taxeS
should be just high enough to bal
ance the budget at some agreed level
of high employment, and thereby
protect the stability of our currency
If we set our tax rates any higher
We will reduce unnecessarily the
