Because we have been taught to think ol MONEY as EVERYTHING, we have come to think of Inflation as something not TOO undesirable. Most Americans are Inclined to think to themselves, If not to say out loud: "Inflation is bad, of course everybody says so. But let's have A LITTLE of It. I can USE SOME MORE MONEY." THE truth Is that more money alone WONT CURE INFLA- rroviaing more money without more production Is a good deal like trying to put out a fire by pouring gasoline on it. The sober economic fact is that the way to cure Inflation is to get production started In a BIG way. Once we are able to got all the things we want, we'll stop run ning around trying to bid up prices of things that are SCARCE. AMERICA'S capacity to produce is IMMENSE. It swamped our enemies during the war. It can SWAMP INFLATION quickly enough if It can be got going lull-speed on wanted peace time goods. The trouble is that too many monkey wrenches have been thrown Into the machinery. One of these monkey wrenches Is the political attempt to FORCE TOO QUICKLY a trial of the theory that the way to create markets (with resulting prosperity) is to raise wages without raising prices. The theory Itself is sound enough, but the political attempt to FORCE it, RIGHT NOW, frightened Industry and the dead lock of the past few weeks re-J suited. ANOTHER money wrench in the wheels has been the theory (toward which Mr. Dowlrs has seemed to loan) that Inflation can be controlled solrly by holding down prices hy law. As a result, prlres have been held so low that INCENTIVE TO PRODUCE has been destroyed. (As nearly as can be found out, the reason butter is so scarce is that It Is UNPROFITABLE to make butter.) When It Is unprofitable to pro duce, people Just won't produce. Chronicling; the panging of Charley Miller, newspapers throughout Oregon will refer to him as one of the state's leading industrialists and business men. But in our own mind we can never associate him with the field of Big Busi ness. He was first and foremost a sportsman, a lover o( the Creat Outdoors, an ardent fisherman. A business deal which might involve thousands of dollars could remain un touched upon his desk if the steelheitda were biting. Urgent business, unless it Involved war contracts, could be post poned indefinitely if some fishing companion as much as mentioned a trip up the North Umpqua. Had Charley Miller commanded his passing, it could not have been more in keeping with his exuberant personality, for only a few hours before he was stricken with a fatal heart attack, he had succeeded in taking a large steelhead from his beloved Umpqua river. His business deals involved millions of dollars. He was financially interested in numerous industrial enterprises throughout Oregon as well as in many major firms doing business on a national scale, yet he seldom spoke of these connections, his many business problems, his numerous financial successes. His conversation usually was of fish ing, of joyful living, of the outdoors. He knew intimately every good fishing spot of the Pacific Northwest. He had a cabin on nearly every principal stream in Oregon, and to them he took his friends to share his hos pitality and recreation. His greatest and most recent love was the Umpqua river a love which was written into the beautiful log home he constructed high on a bench of lordly Mt. Scott, where, through the windowed wall, he could gaze out upon the broad North Umpqua watershed. In our imagination, as we fish the waters of the North Umpqua in future years, we shall envision in the dancing lights above sparkling waters, celestial flies cast by Charley Miller, Zane Gray, Major Lawrence Mott, and others of the Fishing Great, whose last earthly thoughts were cen tered on the stream. We know they would ask no greater bliss than to roam its banks in steelhead season and that their paradise would be complete, except as they sorrowed because of mundane negligence in protecting their beloved Umpqua. the present government, but the lessons of the existing STAG NATING deadlock In industry have been so plain as to force rec ognition even in Washington ol the fundamental fact that em ployers and workers constitute a TEAM and that both horses must PULL TOGETHER If the wagon Is to be got out of the mudhole. Recognition of tills fact brought forth the new wage price formula that Is to be adminis tered by Mr. Bowles. The HOPE that lies hack of It Is that by pro viding INCENTIVE for both horses we can get them to pull to gether. If they PO pull together, we can got out of the mud. Newsprint Shortage to Continue CHICAGO, Feb. 19. iP) Paul Kellogg of Montreal, Canada, general manager of the Newsprint Association of Canada, said today that American newspapers probably will receive less newsprint in 1946 than they did In 1941 and the war year of 1942. Kellogg, In a speech prepared for delivery to the Inland Daily Press Association, said that at the projected rate for the first six months of 1946, newspapers should receive about 3,S7O,OO0 tons of newsprint this year as oompared to 3,985, 000 tons in 1941 and 3,940,000 tons In 1942. There it is in black and white! We have been doing a lot of wishful thinking that perhaps we could get some relief on newsprint soon. But, apparently, it is not to be. The current newsprint shortage is a definite bottleneck in speeding prosperity. Manufacturers, wholesalers and re tailers must depend upon advertising to reach the consuming public, which has a great backlog of savings. Spending of these savings will maintain high production levels, thus re taining high wage standards and prosperity. But how can newspapers cope with the situation on exist ing newsprint limitations? Here in Iloseburg, for instance, we had 02 new business and industrial firms last year that's an average of one per week. We're ahead of last year's average so far this year. These new firms want advertising space. They desire to mhivHfp o-nod will and natronage. The News-lievicw is rejecting large advertising contracts almost every day. No advertiser can obtain all the space he wants. We are stymied very definitely from producing the kind of a newspaper we are equipped to present the kind of a newspaper Douglas County wants and should have. We had hoped for relief before summer, but, apparently, "it just ain't in the cards." indoctrinating 18-ycar-old boys with the totalitarian viewpoints prevalent in the Army." Universal training, he declared, nut only would "create interna tional Ill-will" but would be "a stepping stono toward world war HI." U. S. Soldier on Trial For Slaying Russian VIENNA.

CP) - President Truman today sinned a bill cancelling out $51,786,811, UU in appropriations voted by Conpress during the war. Hut in so doing, he sharply criticized a provision in the legislation deny ing Philippine Army veterans ma jor benefits under the G. I. Bill of Rights. Mr. Truman said in a statement he reall7.es there are "practical difficulties" in applying the GI benefits to the Philippine vet erans. But, he added, the legislation does not "release the United States from its moral obligation to provide for the heroic Philip pine veterans who sacrificed so much for the common cause." He said he had directed Secre tary of War Patterson, Veterans Administrator Omar Bradley and Philippines High Commissioner Paul V. McNutt to draw up a plan to remove the difficulties in volved In making payments to Philippine Army veterans and to submit tt to him not later than March 15. Labor Dept.
