That TECHNOCRACY Question NO. S MACHINES AND JOBS EDITOR'S NOTE: This la the third of a series of six dally ar ticles giving a new Insight Into Technocracy whose prediction of possible economic oollspee started a farflung controversy. The ar ticles also present other ststlstles pertaining to displacement of men by machines, energy con sumption, debts and other points Involved. By 1. R. BRACKETT. (Copyright, 1932, by The Associated Press.) NEW YORK. (JP) A new "money," an exact. Invariable token of exchange based on energy. Is one of the tenta tive proposals of Howard Scott, di rector of Technocracy, as a need of this economic system. But why a new money? Because. In the eyes of Scott, the present sys tem of exchange, coupled with other attributes of the price system Such as debt, Interest, and the dollar's vari ability as a measurement of wealth. Interferes with the' machine and so cial progress. This la nart nf Vi- nanulft nw. erty fn the midst of plenty, wherein bugs lactones lie Idle, willing and physically able to produce, but pre vented from, doing so because of the lack of purchasing, power among the people lack partly accounted for, aosording to Scott, by the concentra tion of money In the hands of be ew. Says "Price System' Finished. ,Boes efco.tt propose the totsl abo lition of the price system, of banks, of interest?, of mortgages and finally of the dollar Itself? The. present system Is finished. Technocracy 'says; and the coun try must realize that the price system will no lorrfcer work, Neither Scott nor Technocracy has publicly explained fully yJbat a new system of direction would Include, 'so far as the replacement of the pres ent exchange system 1 concerned. A unit of "value" under the price system, as Scott describes It. Is a "certification of- debt" a. Hen, theo retically, against a physical entity. Under technological control, a unit of 'measurement" would be a "cer- 'arf ?ffihA iteW HfJv, S ftha i TECHNOCRACY tOLDS PRICS rU I 40: MiMMd OF PROGRESS W iHMMiMkl The iketoh aboTe, showing tbe price system as a monkey wrench In the wheels, of social progress, Illustrates a basic theory of Technocracy, a reuearc group at Columbia university. Debt and other attribute of the price system prevent, according to Technocracy, the natural flew of goods and allow tine present paradox of poverty In the midst of plenty. tltl-catlon of available energy pro duced." InAtead of trying to value goods In term of dollars of variable pur chasing power, Technocracy would measure the energy produced so to speak, would measure the Income In stead of the capital in calories, ergs, foot pounds, British thermal units, horsepower or with some of the other terms for energy measurement which are theoretically exact and which would, be used-up. This, Technocracy holds, would pre vent debt and . huge accumulations of wealth. The Individual would .re ceive a proportionate share of the energy produced. Ha would spend it In certain ways for the things he desired. Tbe energy unit would not be ft measure of desire as is tbe dol lar, but a measurement of what ac tually was available and might be economically given to the people. AU of this Implies central distribution of Income and a more rigid control of the division of goods. 1 Economists are critical of such pro posals, ueorge eoute, economist and associate of the New Republic, says if the nation could h&ve such con trol aa this, present old-fashioned money would do quite well. Aa for Scott's statements that en ergy units would furnish exact meas urements, an economist for a Wall street financial bouse points out that the amount of energy produced from coal oil and waterpower is variable and that the measurements of It are also variable. Unless Technocracy proposes absolute control of the tt- tire economic system, this economist says, the more efficient user of fuel would receive more income and would accumulate things again, unless the state prevented such accumulation. Bootleg "Energy Money"? Another economist holds, more or less facetiously, that "energy money' could be quite easily bootlegged. The hills might be full of "illicit stills' for the manufacture of energy which would be wired secretly to towns and cities. . . . It might -be transported across na tional lines. If such lines were al lowed In a technologically controlled system. And what would happen If transmission of power were made pos sible by radio, a possibility now re ceiving considerable study? These would be, the economist said, factors tending to make energy extremely un-table. Many economists have proposed a commodity dollar to alleviate the gen erally admitted evils of the present variable dollar. Such a dollar would be allocated purchasing ' power ac cording to a commodity Index and would vary as the supplies of the various commodities varied. Thus, money would always have approximately the same purchasing power and debts would not vary In their burdensomtness. Tomorrow Machines and Debts.

"NOT CONSTIPATED FOR SEVEN WEEKS" Writes Mrs. Johnson After Using Kellogg's All-Bban Sufferers from constipation will be .interested in this unsolicited letter: "Tour ALL-BRAN sorely relieves constipation. I am so glad over the good it has done me that I feel I must write and tell you of it, "For lunch I take a banana, a large one. Six tablespoons of All Rbiu in a sauce dish, and Hin banana at each bite until all is j T 1 '- 1 1 consumeu. jio.tn - ww wiiabt rated now for seven weeks." Mrs. Louise Johnson, 1433 Forest Street, Denver, Colorado. Constipation often causes head aches, loss of appetita and energy, sleeplessness. This condition is usually due to lack of "bulk" to ex ercise the intestines, and vitamin B to further promote regular habits. Kellogg's ALL-BRAN has both, as well as iron for the blood. The "bulk" In All-Bran Is much like that in leafy vegetables. 'With in the body, it forms a soft mass. Gently, it clears out the wastes. Try All-Bran in place of patent medicines often harmful. Two tablespoohfuls daily will overcome most times of constination. Chronic cases, with each meal. If not re lieved this way, see your doctor. Use as a cereal, or in cooking.
