BABSON PARK, Mass.—In view
of the changed situation in Washing-
ton following the collaboration be-
tween United France and Germany,
the war will be shorter than mo«t
people thinki Although we may, di-
rectly or indirectly convoy shipments
to England yet, with Congress in its
present mood, there is no chance of
the United States now declaring war.
For this, and other reasons, there
is no cause for the pessimism which
is about today in Washington, New
York, and most of the large cities.
It is true that huge sums of money
are being taken from the rich through
terribly high tsxs. This money is
bring given either to labor in the
form of high wages or short hours. ‘
or to being .distributed to the unfor-
tunate through various forms of re-
lief. Billions are being spent on
tanks and airplanes; but are these
any more wasteful than pleasure cars
and crime? Crime alone, last year,
cost this country $15,000,000,000.
But I got a new idea In Washing-
ton the other day. Here it is as put
up to me by one of- the New Deal
economist*. Said he; “Give us two
a"*fir three years longer and these eco-
nomic operations will not be nieces-
sary as the patients are constantly
dying off. Isn’t it just a* huiniiip
to keep the economicaly-inefficient
businessmen, farmers, and unemploy-
ed free from* pain and let them die
naturally‘a? * it-if to eliminate them
now through.bankruptcy ? They have
only a few more years to live any-
way." This is a new" thought to
, me; but there may be something in it.
Congress has increased the debt
limit of *6SJH)0,000,000. Unless there
is a negotiated peace within a rea-
sonable time, this debt will approach
(100,000<000,060. Whether we will
com< to the printing of currency, I
do not know. Washington insist*
that dangerous inflation will be pre-
vented through high taxation, price-
fixing. and forcing wage workers to
put a portion of their money into
government bonds instead of ■ spend-
ing it. This would keep people from
Ridding up prices. Things which are
tul will be
taxed especially neavn^.
On the other nami, It must be
realized that inflation in some form <
