UNITED STATES COUNCIL OF NATIONAL DEFENSE.
Washington
A STATEMENT CONCERNING THE HIGH COST OF LIVING.
To the Public:
The I'nited States ('oiln. il of National Defense, composed of the Secretaries of
Wiir, Navy, Interior, Agriculture, ( 'onuiierce and Lahor, has made a careful invest ilia-
tinn of the liih-cnst-n1'-li in"' prolilcin, anil finds:
That the Nation's productive powers have not been fully utilized since the
armistice.
That too few goods, notably the necessities of life, have been produced, and
that even some of these goods have been withheld from the market, and therefore
from the people.
That the high cost of living is due i n part to unavoidable war waste and in
crease of money and credit.
That there has been considerable profiteering, intentional and unintentional.
The Council believes that the remedies for the situation arc:
To produce more goods, and to produce them in proportion to the needs of the
people.
To stamp out profiteering and step unnecessary hoarding.
To enforce vigorously present laws and promptly enact such further new laws
as are necessary to prevent and punish profiteering and needless hoarding
To bring about better co operation and method in distributing and marketing
goods. ,
To keep bum producer ant', roiii-urner 1'uliy informed as to what goods are need- '
ed and as to what suppliss are availaLie, so that production may anticipate the
country's demands
floods and not money ;ire the means of life, lletter standards of living are imiios
sihle without pvoduciim- more " N. .Man can not consume what has not heen produced.
At the war's end our Allies had desperate need of the essentials of life. We have
had to share our resources wilh them, hut I his drain will firadually lessen. Tn so far as
oiir .-horlaire of o-oods is due to this cause we can well afford to he patient.
It is just as essential that we have pat ien.-e with the economic situation here at
home. The process ol' prodiu i inn re. iiires t ime. Jf production is rapidlv increased
vastly improved conditions will .prevail in A nieriea when the results of present and fu
t ure lalifir heu'in to appear. '
Team work is imperative. Tt is just ns essential between retailer, wholesaler and
producer as it is liet ween -employer and employe. One' "roup r producers 'can 'not
wait mi another urnup. The nianul'.-iciurcr. the' fanner, the distributor must' each'inime',1
lately assume his part of the burden ainlenter upon his task. The Nation can Hot 'if
