" Reconstruction Finance The banks of tbs United States must be left free to finance the reooastruo- tion St productive enterprise and must not be cluttered up with the Victory Ljberty Losa That b the composita thought-out opinion at two of tha West's most noted professors of finance, Carl C.

Both agree ____ that the money to finish paying - needed , ------------------- tor the war should not come out of working capital, but should bo raised out of Individual savings o f humble and wealthy. " I f the people take the Loan, as they must»" Professor Plehn Says, ‘th e banks will be left free to lend to the manufacturer, the farmer, the grocer, the butcher, aad the baker, so that they can get busy again on a peace time basis. Then production and busi ness will grow and. by the formula prices will come to normal. If we 'leave It to the banka’ they will have no funds left for business, big or lit tla Wo. ourselves, will not profit and the day of our redemption will only be postponed." Professor Wlldman. whose ability caused him to be called from Stan ford to Washington for war finance service, agrees with the Callforali economist, adding: “ It would be n grave mistake to saddle the banks of the country with the Victory Loan at this time." ' When two professors agree. It’s time to sit up and tab* notice. When two professors not only agree with each other, but agree with the Govern ment, that settles It.
