Uncle Sam now practically is in the position of the boy who can eat his candy and keep it. While borrowing to an extent greater than any nation has ever borrowed at one time, he is, at the same time, providing greatly! increased stimulus to business witnm his own realm. It is not as if this seven billion dollars were to be borrowed and tak en out of the country for investment elsewhere. This is to be merely a I transfer of credit, one of the condi f tions of the credit extended to foreign J nations being that the money bor rowed from this government must be spent for supplies withn this country So when the United States lends. two hundred million dollars to Great Bri tain, this government merely assem bles the credit of its people and lends that credit to Great Britain to enable Great Britain to enlarge its opera tions of buying our supplies. So while we are aiding Great Britain, by giv ing her a lower interest rate than she otherwise could get, we are aiding ourselves by providing new demands upon all of our industries, new de mands for labor; larger requirements of raw materials and a greater mar ket for food supplies. The administration has profited from the costly experience of other nntinnc hv niitlininc n nnlirv whirh provides for , a combination of bor-1 rowing and taxation in order to keep down the bad effects usually resultant from large borrowing. The most pronounced ill effects that have come where nations have raised all of their war revenue by the sale of bonds. Wherever a nation has undertaken to raise its taxation proportionately with its rate of borrowing this ten dency toward price inflation has been reduced.
