In the long run nothing can control inflation except the balancing of government income and outgo. This has not been done for nearly a generation. The present threatening possibility of a third world war is merely aggravating a chronic problem. One of the most competent of the dissenters insofar as the price control craze is concerned is Henry Hazlitt, author of a column entitled Business Tides, in Newsweek magazine. Recently he warned that: General price control is at once an ineffective and a crippling device by which a government pretends to protect its citizens against the inescapable consequences of its own fiscal and monetary policies. But it has the merit for the bureaucrats of deflecting attention from their own irresponsible monetary policies onto private scapegoats knbwn as profiteers. There is in existence at present more than three times the volume of money and credit as in 1939. It is this increase in monetary purchasing power, brought about by government policy, and not a continuance of war shortages or profiteering, that caused the high prices prior to June 25 of this year. hard facts and demand Until the people understand-thesa new measure of integrity and frugality in the administration of government there is nothing but increasing misery in store for them war or no war and regardless of controls. This applies with added emphasis to labor, agricultural, business and civic leaders who go along with the promotion of local projects at Federal expense and the endorsement of officeholders and candidats whose primary qualification is ability to secure Federal handouts. -- so-call- ed e Let The Reflex Work for and Journal Readers You-10,0- 00 The JOURNAL T A weekly newspaper published in the interests of the residents of Davis County, at Layton, Utah.
