Ickes, of the multifarious titles and duties, swears that the thought of | putting the United States on auction block has never entered his | head—but allows that if it should be auctioned he wouldn't take a penny less than $12,023,000,000,000 (trillions). There's many a citizen, if burdened with custody of the nation’s | coal mines as is Ickes, who probably would be tempted to shade that | price a trillion or so to complete a deal. Writing in the current American magazine, Ickes said that that colossal figure was his valuation of the physical assets of the United States. Compared with the national debt of $140,304,000,000, he said, it “looks like the Sunday-schoo! collection plate of the swampland church on a bad day.” “This is my answer to the ‘poor mouths’,’ he said, “who are com-= plaining that the war is going to bust us and that we shall leave our children penniless. . . . The $12,023,000,000,000 is what we ought to get for our country, raw, at a forced sale.” Here is how Ickes got his total: Coal, at present mining depths ........v000 Coal, U. S. possessions, ete...

NO CHARD NO OBLIGATION _ Accepted American Medical Ash
LAFAYETTE, Ind, July 5—In {April of this year, the index of Indiana farm prices, based on 1935-39 {as 100, was 172 per cent, more than| {double the 1939 “before the war” figures of 84 per cent, Purdue university agricultural extension reported today. There was a 30-point advance between April, 1942 and April, 1943. Price movements of Indiana farm products during world war II have been similar to those of world war 7. The Indiana farm price index for April, 1918 was 196, and for April 1943 was 199, both based on 1910-14 as 100. In April of this year, Indiana farm prices were 119 per cent higher than in April, 1939, while in April, 1913 they were 85 per cent higher than in April, 1914. As in other periods of inflation, the price of raw materials has increased faster than the price cf finished products. This has eaused a favorable ratio between prices received and prices paid by farmers which will not continue indefinitely. It is expected, however, that it wiil not change significantly during the next year.
Pressure Increases
Never before in the history of the nation have there been as many inflationary factors at work as at present, the economists said. There is more money in the hands of consumers in relation to the supply of consumer goods available than at any previous time. The greater effort being made to control inflation during this war is somewhat offset by the increased economic pressure, which may cause higher prices. ’ The large proportion of national production being used for war ‘purposes is leaving a smaller and smaller supply of consumer goods available on domestic markets.
