Zeigler’s Grass Valley serious straits because his-products have little barter value, because his wheat and corn and tobacco is worth little while other goods are still near the wartime peak. Direct inflation would not help the farmer It would merely solidify the present price balance which is so plainly unfair to the producer ,No one has claimed that the country needs a higher price for steel goods, farming implements, machinery, or the many I other commodities that are manufactured, controlled and sold by well financed corporations. Yet, inflation would raise the price of these commodities the same as would the farmers wheat, and much quicker. What the manufacturers need is a sale for their goods.. What the farmer needs is something to buy with. Inflation can help neither permanently The problem is the same as it was before inflation was proposed. A reasonable parity must be established between the producer and the manufacturer so that business can be revived The price of farm commodities must rise in propor tion to other goods whether an actual increase in dollar value is made or not. Inflation would not cure the ill, merely aggravate it. --------o-------- In the intersst of accuracy this paper must apologize for an incorrect statement Instead of Wasco county receiving $48,000 from the return of automobile money from the state that county will receive $22,560.
