The Meaning of $3.50
By Rayn Moiey

necessary production and employment
that cannot be so guaranteed must be
supplied by purchasing power provided
by Government. The gap between po-
tential employment and prospective
markets, in short, must be filled by
Government action.
Here is where the intent" comes In.
Congress gets itself committed to the
proposition that the Government must
always fill the gap. And this gives the
purchasing power theorists, who began
to flourish IL years ago, their inning.
The way to fill the gap, they always
contended, is to promote purchasing
power by giving away currency or by
promoting public works. Realizing that
the public is no longer convinced that
increasing public debt is a sure pro-
ducer of employment, the proponents
OF this measure suggest other additional
instruments. These instruments are also
vaguely defined by $3.50.
The danger in such a measure is that
Its philosophy Is borrowed from the
period, dozen years ago, when no one
could dream Of time when purchasing
power might be too great That Is true
now. 1t may possibly be true for q time
after the war. For the presence of over
hundred billions in savings is the new
factor-a factor which upsets all the
theory of the past. The Wagner bill
offers no means for dealing with this
possibility.
Practically, this talk of full employ
ment by Government is merely the old
planned economy under a new name
The words are different, but the idea
is the same.
