Allhi.llch Ihe Tire hail There is some talk now of the great Mississippi flood ciim-ii much headway before u was starting a business boom in this country. Theodore II. Price, "XimiMie,. a leading business analyst, explains the theory in a news- ! ii.imac.cii. "bitten" by transient convassers. paper article, as follows: "The dimensions of the extraordinary disaster have come to be appreciated anil it is evident that the whole country will demand that its repetition shall be pre vented. There is a feeling, that the government will be compelled lo spend at least a billion dollars in flood pre vention work and that Ihe expenditure of this great sum will increase the demand for everything, tiiiicken the c.irciilatii.ii tf indncy and resuscitate the speculative movement that appeared lo be languishing two weeks ago. How far this theory is warranted remains to be seen, but it is sustained by some precedents, and by its appeal to the imagination the decline in the stock market has been arrested." Yes, it would liven things up generally in the business world, no doubt, if I'ncle Sam undertook to spend anything like a billirm dollars in flood relief and reconstruction. Many would welcome that. Kill let us not deceive ourselves about any business boom resulting from that sort of stimulus. i People with necessary materials to sell would profit. ! Manufacturers and middlemen would gain. Since everybody 1 is a consumer, many consumers, caught in the various cur-1' rents of prosperity set up by the circulation of so much money, i would profit in some way or other. I'.uf the great mass of,'1 ,1,1 i., I, ..,.;.,. i i,;.,iw... ,;,.. i'..! their necessaries. And the whole public, whose money I'ncle Sam spends, would have to pay it sooner or later in the! form of taxes. 1 We might paiaplnase a biblical p.issage and say: "He not deceived; economic law is not mocked." Whatever is destroyed is a tlead loss, lie placement of lost goods, or lo-. construction of.a bad juh, always has to be paid for. A great! catastrophe, whether war or lire or flood, invitably levies its' toll first on the immediate sufferers, and then on all of the vast, interwoven social organization they belong to. j Only and this is worth remembering- Ihe moral audi .'.pirifunl impetus gained in heroically setting to woik lo over-! come a calamity sometimes carries people ahead so that in the end they are better off than they would have been with out the calamity. That is the lewaid of courage. r.UOAlK'LOTH SMOCKS For Street, House or Office.
