The sight of this arbitrary rearrangement of riches strikes not only at security, Imt at confidence in the equity of the existing distribution of wealth. Those to whom the system brings windfalls, lies mid their deserts and even their expectatimis or desires, liecome 'profiteers, who are the object of the hatred of the Ixxirgcoisie, whom the inflation has iuqxiverished, not less than of the proletariat." Lrniu was certainly right. Tliere is no subtler, no surer means uf overturning the existing liasis of society than to dcliauch the currency. The process engages all the hidden forces of economic law on the side of destruction, and does it in a manner which not one man in a million is able to diagnose." d WASHINGTON Today I',,, going to lazy and li t someone rise write the column. Hi name i John Maynard Keynes. the Brit-isectNHNiiist whose idea have influenced American economic xthcy for two generations. cry Briefly, Keyne concluded that governments could smooth rail the peak and valleys in the Imsiiievs cycle By engaging in deficit spending during recessions and nmniiig a Imdgelary surplus during Immhiis. Tlie deficit sjn'iiding ctMinters recessjiNi and the surplus wards'off inflation. UNFORTUNATFI.Y, we learned rmly half of Keynes' lesson. IX'ficit sX'iulmg is very popular with politicians, who like to start new federal aid programs. But mice an aid program is stalled, it is almost impossible to end. So. we have followed a policy of deficit spending In lxth recessions and Ikmhiis. AikI that is the source of air present inflation. Si me we are in trouble for not paying close enough attention to Keynes, I think it's a good time to read what he had to say alxnit inflation.

But a continuing process of inflation, governments can confiscate, secretly and imoliserved, an iinjiortant part of the wealth of their citizens. By this method they not only confis- - PRICE CONTROLS Keynes is equally current on the topic of price controls; "The presumption of a spurious value for the currency, by the forte of law expressed in the regulation of prices, contains in itself, however, the seeds of final economic decay, and soon dries up the sources of ultimate supply. If a man is compelled to exchange the fruits of his lalxirs for paicr which, as experience soon teaches him, he cannot use to purchase wliat he requires at a price comparable to that which he has received for his own products, he' will keep his produce for himself, disjxise of it to his friends and ncighlxirs as a favor, or relax his efforts in producing it. A system of compelling the exchange of commodities at what is not their real relative value not only relaxes production, but leads finally to the waste and inefficiency of barter."
