M Report
By CHARLES V. STANTON
All indications point to early imposition of fpdcral wane
and price controls. If past experience is to be used to
forecast the future, we may anticipate strict and irritating
price controls, but very loose and flexible wage controls.
Control on prices are popular. Controls on watre are
unpopular. Laws and regulations are made by politicians.
Politicians are very sensitive to popular opinion. There
fore controls on prices, beiti popular, will be firm, while
control on wages, being- unpopular, will be largely in token
form. H wouldn't do, with a presidential election in the
offing, to antagonize organized labov.
Our capitalistic system has given this country the great
est wealth and the highest standard of living any people
ever have known. We are supporting much of the world
financially today from the proceeds of our capitalistic
economy. These poorer relations, with their socialistic or
communistic idealogies, condemn capitalism while enjoying
its bounty.
Although capitalism has proven its ability to produce
wealth and higher standards of living, we find immediate
clamor that it be discarded in periods of emergency, and
that we substitute the dictatorial policies of federal con
trols. '. Displacements resulting from manpower shortages, di
version of materials, etc., might in some cases make cer
tain controls advisable. Hut such controls, in our opinion,
should be as few as possible. The natural balance obtain
able from free enterprise and the law of supply and
demand should be given every encouragement. Instead,
however, whenever opportunity is offered to impose con
trols of any sort, advocates of the federal management
policy insist on going whole hog: And once control advo
cates get their hands on the nation's economy a major
operation will be required to pry them loose.
We believe we should be extremely cautious in use of I
either wage or price controls, keeping regulations to a gy FULTON LEWIS JR.

Higher Education." If. however, the legislature puts an
extensivebui!ding program into vthe budget, for the coming
biennium. together with other demands on tax revenue,
there will be no chance to balance the budget without
imposing heavy additional taxes.
The state treasurer proposes two plans of using exist
ing funds. One would be a direct borrowing program, and
the other would be substitution by general obligation
bonds.
He lists among accumulated trust fund surpluses
000,000 in the industrial accident fund, f lfi,000,000 in the
segregated accident fund. $29,000,000 in the retirement
fund, $10,250,000 in the land board fund, $000,000 in the ca
tastrophe fund and $3,000,000 in inactive funds.
The state is required to have money on hand to meet
obligations arising against nr.'.' "f these funds, but it does
seem that some of these surpluses are excessive and that
the money might be put to good use.
We don't know enough about state financing to say
whether Pearson's proposals are or are not practical, but
it would seem that the legislature should do all within its
power to keep taxes at the lowest possible level. Borrow- 1 refused
ing from existing surpluses might help during this emer
gency period.
