Draft
Soon the high school seniors will be graduating from the hallowed
halls of dear old Ashland high. This year is another year of crisis for
that group, just as were the years from 1916 to 1919 and more re
cently from 1940 to 1946.
It goes without saying that a draft of the nation’s youth is definite
ly in line with the future plans of the country’s leaders. That this
will work untold hardship on many sensitive youngsters and their
overanxious parents is true. The best that can be said for such a sit
uation is that those parents who feel that their children will gain
something from the experience will best weather the period of time
while their boys are away. And those boys whose parents prepare them
for their sojourn in our armed forces by giving words of encouragement
and by streessing the need for adaptability, will gain the most from
their tour of duty.

Boom
This nation today stands on the threshold of the greatest peace time
boom any nation at any time has ever seen. Passage of the Marshall
plan is certain, and this will mean that we pump millions of dollars
worth of goods into the life lines of a war shattered world. That means
that our industrial and agicultural production will be stimulated for
the goods which go to Europe will be over and above those needed for
domestic use.
And the military set-up of our nation has suddenly turned into a
rapidly growing and functioning organization which will need food,
clothing, and equipment. Our industries will be swamped by orders
from the Army, Navy, and Air force. And on top of this the civilian
economy will be demanding consumer goods.
The only natural result is a greater demand for goods. This greater
demand will in turn cause higher prices, for as demand increases, prices
follow. This in turn can cause inflation and the only way to keep in
flation under control will be to set up strong, definite controls to gov
ern the prices of basic commodities. This is, then, the only answer.
Yet today in the circles of the Republican congress plans are being
made to take o ff all remaining controls and to lower income taxes,
which are, in themselves, a strong type of inflationary control. If this
congress lowers income taxes in the face of the impending boom w e’ll
find ourselves so far in debt and with so little chance of recovering
that this country’s future ecenomy will probably never recover.
Taxes are the only retaining wall against the pending inflation. Sec
ondarily today’s debt is being paid o ff with today’s inflated dollar, and
it is far better to pay o ff an inflated debt with an inflated dollar.
The actions o f our legislators today will have far reaching effects.
Seems to us that the Republicans in Congress should quit seeking votes
with an inflationary boom and should begin planning to keep the nat
ion’s economy on an even keel.
And We Can Prove It
Looks are more deceiving, but that which looks like
quality really is just that in the m erchandise we
