The soldier boys work trom sur
lise to sunset. They, morover, work
nard—far harder than any home vva
workers are working. Certainly, tin
working-hours for all ol us shouh
l'o the same. If so. this would etiubU

the answer lt> the farmers' problems
white longer hours for all of u.
would do much to shorten the war
Otherwise, these may arise a demam
that soldiers, factory and farm work
ers all be paid the same wages.
Truth About Inflation
In this connection, let me say ;
final word on inflation—Paying taxc
| does not stop inflation; it merely
i delays it. Buying war bonds doe
I not prevent inflation: it merelj
I postpones it- The money which ;!i
j government receives from taxes an
I bonds is not destroyed. It is immc
diately paid out again to wage work
ers and their employers. This mmiev
j is now increasing and piling up ii
banks and pocket-books to the Unit
of about two billion dollars per week
Only one thing will prevent inlla
tion and a post-war crash. This i
to put all of us in uniform on Army
pay and on Army hours. Factory
and farm workers would get S!>0 tv
month and "keep": while executive
and employees would ei-t the tr ••
ent officers pay. Except as needed
to lake care of obligations, all private
incomes over a small figure would
probably need to be frozen for the
duration. The wealthy, however
would be glad to agree to this if
everyone is treated alike and made
to work the same number nf hours.
War Would Quickly Be Ended
Tlie simple truth is that England.
Canada and the United States are
tiyinv. t.i win this war and at th<
ante time play politics. This mean
