If you were in Finland, you
could buy a new government
bond which would increase Y

If you were in France, you
would have an intriguing choice.
You could buy one government
bond which would rise with the

would rise with the price of rail-
road fares, a third which would
rise with the value Of 20-franc
gold coins and a fourth which
would rise with the indexes of

If you were in Sweden, Nor

tract buyers for their bonds
unless they offer guarantees
against imitation.
Fewer and fewer are the ma
Itions-such as the United States,
Canada, Switzerland-which are
holding out against this move
ment.
ITO me, it is a horrifying trend
which breeds imitation chaos
and which win end in imitation
chaos" said I to my friend, Dr.
Franz Pick, the expert in in
ternational currencies who mocks
me constantly with his cynical
comments, "Currencies are made
to be devalued," and, Govern
ment bonds are certificates OF
guaranteed confiscation."
ION the contrary, it is q
recognition that the capitalist
has as much right as the union
member to protection against
depreciation in his currency's
buying power" was DIR. Picks
quick retort.
1.-THE only protection against
Ia devastating price spiral is
prevention of the spiral" was
my answer. If our Government
issued this type of bond and q
decade from now found it had
to pay back SIS billion for every
$40 billion Of bonds outstanding
how would it get the cash? Only
by borrowing from the banks
and, in effect, printing the
money. This would only intensity
the imitation spiral. This is the
way to fiscal madness"
DR.. Pick shook his head
II over the years,
our Government doesn't give
buyers incentives to buy bonds,
we'll end up compelling buying
of Government bonds and this
would be a giant step toward
socialism"
