As was clearly stated in the article on inflation from the Kansas City Star, printed on this page yesterday (which we hope everyone interested in the problem read). "You can not make up for velocity by volume." Which is only another way of saying "You can't raise yourself by your bootstraps." Printing more money won't do it. For it isn't the amount of money that counts, it is the way that money is used the monetary velocity, the activity in trade. Extending credit won't do it. For extending credit is one thing, using it is quite another. The banks may be full of money and eager to loan, but if there is no confidence in the future, no conviction that money invested will bring a safe return that credit will not be used. It is not the amount of credit, possible, it is the amount of credit USED, that counts. rpiIAT is why some stabilization of the dollar is so important. Until it IS stabilized, until its constant fluctuation stops, no business man can know where he is at, for he has no way of knowing what the money he invests TODAY is going to be worth TOMORROW. As a result he hesitates to do anything he merely buys from hand to mouth, waiting for something to happen, that will clear up the situation. In other words there is uncertainty, there is lack of confidence. TTHAT is the situation now. That is why stocks are lower, ' why the trade index has declined, why the mid-summer recovery has slackened. And that is why in the near future, probably before the end of the present month, something defi nite about the stabilization of the dollar will be done. It may be a 60-cent dollar, it may be less, it might be more, but it will be something definite, something business can BANK upon. ' That action alone will not restore confidence. But it will provide the NECESSARY starting point, without which a re turn of publio confidence is IJIPOSSIBLE. Then the NRA, oredit expansion, publio works and all the other methods of resuscitation, will have solid ground beneath them, and the entire recovery program will be in a position to go full steam ahead, toward the achievement of ita goal whioh is to restore publio confidence in this country and its future.

Had it succeeded it might have been almost as tragio in its consequences as the assassination of the Austrian crown prince nearly 20 years ago. For what waa true then la true now. The war powder magazine, awaiting only a apark, to bring the'explosion, is in South Central Europe, not far from .what was once the proud empire of 'Austria-Hungary. This perky little "French bulldog" is all that stands be tween what is left of his fatherland and Fascism.

Jojning with Hitler would mean another European war, not joining with him would mean a crushing diplomatic defeat. Upon his ohoice would probably rest the fate of another European conflagration. The failure of the assassination will probably result in not only delaying the crisis, but in making Dollfuss a stronger powor in south central Europe than ever before. It will solidify the nationalistic forces behind him, and scatter the forces work ing underground for his overthrow. It will hardly ohange the gravity of the essential situation however, A metal button on the chancellor's vest may not de flect the next bullet. If not, then the fat will be in the fire.

Mustn't skip this. , Borne day you are going to graduate from the primary department, so you should get Into tne n a o 1 1 checking the spelling, pronun ciation and mean ing of unfamiliar words by reler rlng to a good dictionary. What, no authoritative, first class, up to date unabridged dictionary In your home? Oh, well, turn back to the comic strips. Maytw they are adapted to your intellectual capacity. Recently I enjoyed an hour of con versation with a college professor. It was embarrassing the number of sub jects on which the man confessed Ignorance yet in the course of the hour I learned many things it would have taken a lot of atudy and reading to learn otherwise. Ignorance In the case of a person who wishes to learn la well, aren't we all pretty Ignorant of many things? But Ignorance In one who does not care to learn la a repulsive thing. So I say a good standard dictionary, a real dictionary and not some tawdry premium or bargain tbook, deserves a place In every home. Members of the house hold may have many delightful dls cuslons of the origin, meaning, spell ing or pronunciation of words, with the dictionary to settle all bets, in such family quarrela every partici pant gains something. Just aa there are many Ignorant folk who seem to have no desire to learn, so there are many Invalids or cripples who have no desire for re habilitation. I refer particularly to those who are more or less disabled or crippled by neglected or unease n Mal adhesions or by neglected paresis or weakening of muscles from unduly prolonged wearing of braces, splints, props, supporters, or from 111 ud vised use of such orthopedic appliances. Not only frankly ignorant people, but also wiseacres quite commonly achieve nocuous desuetude by delib erately subjecting themselves to these risks. If I may so characterize them, without benefit of medicine. Trouble with the wiseacre's concep tion of the doctoring art la that It Is half a century behind the times. A lady suffered a fracture In an automobile accident. After a suffic ient length of time in splints -the fracture or break was "knit" or united with callus and the physician directed that supports be left off longer and longer day by day. and that the pa tient use the injured member in cer tain exercises increased day by day. But at this Juncture ber wiseacre husband, versed In what waa perhaps standard practice 50 years ago, not only failed io encourage the lady to follow the doctor's instructions but actually discouraged her from doing so. aa he, Mr. Wiseacre, did not feel the Injured member was "strong enough" for the use the doctor had prescribed. Unfortunately the doctor was one of weak personality or char acter and he permitted Mr. Wiseacre to get away with It. The Inevitable consequence is that Mrs. Wiseacre Is disgracefully crippled from an injury which should have left no permanent disability. She Is crippled by adhe sions which proper xerclse. as the doctor prescribed would have pre vented, and from paresis or weaken ing of muscles which would have re gained their normal strength and rcsilency with early use of the in jured member. , come to the housa to tee you. and let him observe and talk with your nus- KanH Btiiu a.i-i Or ftak th ludse j of any court of record (county court or higher) to name a commission 01 physicians to pass on your husbands mental state and aavue aooui n treatment.

Ore. in o round and pure Are We Going Fascist? re interested to leurn from the Oregoninu that no less an authority than Everett Dean Martin, director of the Cooper Union Forum of New York, agrees with the Mail Tri bune, regarding U. S. Fascism, at least in part. If Dr. Martin is correctly quoted he predicts Fascism in this country within five years. Before the evoking of the New Deal, he gave this country 50 years quite a difference. This paper did not predict Fasaism or industrial dictator ship, in any given time. But we did predict that if the New Deal SHOULD fail, this country would go the way of Italy, not Russia, go with the khaki, not the red shirts. This is Dr. Martin's idea. Only he appears to believe that the New Deal will fail or if it doesn't fail, its momentum will eventually lead, from a planned economy to an economic dicta torship, lie may be right. He is certainly in a position to know more about it than the average country editor. NEVERTHELESS w stick to our former assumption, that the New Deal,, assisted by natural forces of business re covery, will in due time relieve the industrial and economio tension, to allow a return to political normalcy. And if it does, all this talk about Fascism, Nazism, Bolshevism and all the other "isms" will vanish like dew before the summer sun. It will be sudden, just like that I As nations go, the United States is very young, and has the resiliency of youth. A young man is very ill one day, and playing baseball the next. That is the way with Uncle.
