EDITORIALS ON " NEWS (Continued From Page One) front changes that are coming as certainly as night follows day. TN fact, one is justified in wond ering if the native common sense of our people isn't more to be trusted than the outgivings of some of our alleged leaders. In New York the other day, Mayor La Guardia got out of his system the supposedly serious statement that we -should now proceed to DESTROY such sur plus materials as will not pro vide employment for war work ers! - What are these materials? Well, they include such things as food, shoes, clothing, blankets and similar consumer necessities Their estimated value runs far into the billions maybe as much as 15 or 20 billions: They are all things that people want now and NEED now. Imagine a serious proposal to destroy them at this particular moment! : - . A SIDE from the economic sin " inherent in the deliberate de struction of things that contri bute to' the welfare of human beings, consider the effect of such destruction of consumer goods upon inflation, that ogre that threatens us always when money is more plentiful than the things to spend it tor. The way to head off inflation is to keeD eoods ABUNDANT ENOUGH to prevent the sky rocketing of prices, ine sure way to BRING ON inflation is to reduce the supply of goods materially below the supply of money. That is exactly what La Guard ia is proposing to do uzuiBbtl ATELY. IF we are to PROMOTE in flation by artificial foolishness such as destroying existing sup plies of food, clothing, etc., we must then proceed to RESTRAIN it by such artificial devices as rationing and price control. The inevitable and necessary result of La Guardia's absurd proposal, if it were carried out, would be to extend OPA and rationing much farther into the future than would otherwise be required.
