LOOKING AHEAD k CEORGE & BENSON PriiHiit-Jitriiii am Setref.JrttMUt Plunder Wars are wasteful and everybody knows it An emotional plea for national defense is all it takes to raise money from patriotic people. Men and women will sacrifice, will give until it hurts when their sons are at war. A young man, far from home, living (?) under conditions new to him and unknown to his parents, par-ents, is the unfailing combination to the family's treasure chest Whether parents be rich or poor, they will buy their son's passage home from a foreign war every day until he comes, so long as they can find the money, and nobody blames them. They will do it, even if they fear that the money they offer is imprudently spent, or that part of it is diverted into selfish channels. But hostilities have ceased now-Things now-Things are different Frugality Revives People of the United States have begun watching where their tax money goes and wondering it it is being wisely spent It is small wonder won-der that Congress bristles at every suggestion to continue commodity price controls until the middle of 1946. Holding the price line costs something, and does not seem half as important to a war-weary people as it did before the last foreign beachhead was taken. Evidences keep coming to light that taxpayers' money has been wasted by men in positions of trust A recent public statement by Senator Sena-tor Harry F. Byrd of Virginia said more man 3 million civilians were on federal payrolls last November 1, compared with less than one million in August 1939; or 917,760 when the shooting stopped at the end of World War I. Needless Expense There is an element in government today, seeking not merely to continue con-tinue the life ot the opa but to expand ex-pand its functions. Already our government's price-fixing "mechanics" "mechan-ics" have started making arbitrary adjustments in margins to be earned by wholesalers and distributing distrib-uting agencies, an activity not even thought about for the OPA at the time it was created. It would be unfair to allege that this enormous bureau's entire wartime war-time activity was useless. Price controls have done some good, as arbitrary shields against abnormal dangers. They have also clone harm. A retail merchant, whom I have known since I was a boy, told me recently that he made more net gain selling under war-time price ceilings ceil-ings than he had made during his previous 25 years in business. Controlling Prices Questioned for more detail, my retailer friend acknowledged to me that price controls placed on him by government during the war were much more lenient than price controls con-trols placed on him by competitors all his business life. And I am sure it is no more true in his case' than it would be with such institutions as Ford, Chrysler and General Motors. Competition is the correct brake on prices. Begardless of what name it may wear: Price Control, Federal Aid to Education or Socialized Medicine, centralization of power is undemocratic. undemo-cratic. It is paying a power-hungry ruler for doing something that would happen naturally it he would only step aside. It is someone climbing to power by learning what people want and devising a way to keep them from getting it, while making them think he is trying to get It for them.
