Off to An Explanation
So I went to school to Dr. M. O. Ross, president of Butler university. Someone had said: “If anyone can explain it to you, Dr. Ross can.” “Look, Dr. Ross,”.I begah, a bit embarrassed at my ignorance, ‘can you give it to me without the “high faluting” words the economists use?” He just grinned. “President RooseVelt calls it a rise in the price of living, you know.

crease in the amount of goods. The “You see, it works this way. When

He gave me a little time to let that “soak in.” “At the present time, the supply of goods is decreasing but the supply of maney (income) is increasing.

It looked like I had something there. Dr. Ross just smiled, leaned forward and started all over again. “The supply of meat is large but|Den as you say, we are buying more. The men in the armed services are eating more and we are shipping some to our allies. The supply is going down and we start bidding for it The price goes up. “In ordinary times, the farmers would get busy and perhaps raise more. But with a shortage of labor, ete., they can’t do it fast enough in war time. So, the government steps in to see that the price doesn’t go too high. It sets a ceiling price. “But what’s to keep the lady next door from hurrying over to the grocery and buying up all the steaks and hoarding them? “Maybe you need the steak more than she does.” I could answer that one. “Rationng. ”»

“That still leaves us with that 23 billion dollars to spend,” Dr. Rbss reminded. There was another pause. Obviously, he was waiting to see if I had any other “bright ideas” to avert economic chaos. Finally, I gave up. “What are we going to do?” I
“Maybe we will put some of it in war bonds. Perhaps the government will take it in a tax of some kind, like the proposed withholding tax. A ceiling on wages is another method designed to help keep income equal with g and services.”

if we just forgot about controlling inflation?”, I asked. “A completely uncontrolled inflation would be one where the value of money ran down to nothing. On the way to that, one might offer hundreds of dollar bills for a cake.” I began to get the idea. In “two bit” words, control of inflation is RESEssaly Yo-huve sake and eat 3
