The next to be hurt are the people with fixed incomes; STAR »«•«*► by controlling the price of com modities alone. But you cannot control commodity prices with out controlling farm prices since commodities are made by people who have to eat. And you can not control commodity prices without controlling wages since wages are a part of the cost of making the commodities. The problem is enormous. It can never be solved in a way that is satisfactory to everj’body. That would be too much to ex pect of human nature. There will be blunders, mistakes and in justices. Anything else would, unfortunately, be contrary' to the nature of all governments. In a rough and ready way, however, it can be solved. And however rough and ready the solution we had better back it up and work for it. It will be a thousand times better than no solution at all.
