same time bring down the cost
of living to where it used to be
before the war. That would be
having our cake and eating it,
too. That is too much to ask.
But it is not too much to ask
that we should be able to keep
on getting approximately our
present level of wages and earn
ings and dividends without being
squeezed by a further rise in
prices. There ought even to be
some prospect of a gradual re-
lief from high prices.
To bring about such a develop
ment, we need two things: Fist,
we need to stop the further ex-
pansion of the money SUPPLY by
bringing the federal budget I'M
der control and carrying out a
systematic reduction of the ma
tional debt. Second, an d
most important, we need to in
crease our productivity so that
we can turn out a larger volume
of goods at lower per unit cost.
This is the way America has
traditionally moved toward a
higher standard of living,
But this will certainly not hap
pen if we make the mistake of
trying to put on the brakes too
sharply in our anxiety to halt
the rising prices. There are am
pie signs, particularly in the field
of agricultural commodities, that
the scarcities arising out of the
war and the postwar conditions
in the world are gradually be-
ing overcome and that the nor
NAL workings of supply and de-
mand are bringing about a ma
tural tapering off in the postwar
price initiation. Certainly the pre-
sent harvest is evidence of this

The thing to do is to encourage
that natural tapering Oft. but to
do nothing of so extreme a
character as to turn initiation in
to deflation. TIT chief trouble
of a boom is that it Is often
likely to be followed by a bust.
But that does not mean that we
should carry our worries about
a boom to the length Of de-
liberately trying to create a bust,
