accordance with the law of quantity th.-ory of money. Inflation always produces a rise in the price level. In simpler language and applied 1 to the present situation, inflation is caused by a shortage of con*nm*r. good* and a tremendous Increase In the amount of money paid out In wage* For the time being, we have stopped making automobiles, refrig viators, bicycle* and other useful, peacetime prodacta that we could buy and use any time, and have < oitcentrated on the production of warplane*, tanks, guns, bomb* and other things that are useful only in wartime. We have stopped making the thing* we want and are making the things we must have to win the war. Thousands of formerly unemployed now have Jobe Added thous and* are making more money than they ever made before. So. with more money in our pockets to spend and less to spend It oh. either the value of money is reduced or the value of the goods has increased — Rgure it either way—the result is the same They both mean Inflation to the man in the street The danger in inflation lies in the fact that when it is in operation. all the money we earn and all the money we have saved t* i worth less to u* and to everyone else. Inflation Is just as simple as that and jitot as dangerous. i 1 ° Answers To Test 1 Questions Below are the answers to the Teat Questions printed on Page Two. I 40 1. Agard. 2.
