INFLATION—
A MAJOR DANGER
Inflation can be more dam-
in the new German govern-
ment. German debts and stiff
reparations had to be paid
largely in goods, while domestic
demands for goods were tremen-
dous. Commerce was rigidly
controlled but the government
permitted currency to become
abundant while goods were
scarce.
At the advent of the Socialist
controlled government in 1919,
and one-fifth German

flation gathered momentum
through 1919 and 1920, and be-
gan to run wild in 1922-23.
Destruction By Inflation
By July of 1923, 160,000 marks
were required to equal a dol-
lar's purchasing power.
By Octooer, 1923, it required
sonal attributes of self-reliance,
resourcefulness and spiritual

fortunately it hasn’t. The fact
that inflation has continued
each month through 1958,
spite of a substantial “reces-
sion” in certain areas, should
move citizens into counteraction;;
but it hasn’t. Many actions that)
feed and expand inflation and)
over which citizens could exer-|
cise a controlling influence, are
continuing.
It is vitally necessary for the
people of America to understand
inflation, its principal causes
and some of the more dramatic
examples of its effects, it is
vitally necessary for them to act
intelligently to cope with this
expanding danger. Inflation is
caused by the existence of more
money in the market place than
ther e are goods to satisfy the de-
mands, The over abundance of
dollars in ratio to good., cheap-
ens the dollars; each dollar's
purchasing power is reduced, i
Government spending, higher
wages without bigger man-hour i
production, expanding public
and private debt, and other re-
lated factors bring about the;
cheapening of money which is j
called inflalion.
Recent Example
In succeeding columns we
will discuss in deail these fac-
tors which have become serious
inflationary realities in recent!
years and what citizens can do
about them. Meantime, your
individual stake in continuing |
inflation can perhaps best be,
understood by recalling what
happened in Germany in the
j 1920’s. At the end of World
: War I, the Socialist Party
I wielded the dominant influence
It is noteworthy that in both
of these inflationary periods,
I government social security be-
came worthless. Only the per-
