"Rich Man . . Poor Man"
When is a man rich? When is h
poor? What, really, is wealth?
Economists, philosophers, men and
women everywhere are trying to find
the answer.
Textbooks used to teach us that
wealth was simply "surplus capital."
Bernard Baruch, sometimes called the
"grand old man in Washington," saic'
recently that any man was rich who
had one dollar more than he absolute
ly had to have to meet his needs.
In these days of constantly chang
stant fear of inflation or deflation, it
ing values, in a world beset by con
would seem that a modern definition
of wealth is in order.
Men and women have become real
ists about money. They know, for
instance, that dollars buy more in
times of deflation like the depression
years, but jobs, and therefore dollars,
are harder to And and deflation does
not benefit them.
They also know that in times like
the present, with partial inflation,
there are plenty of dollars around but
they don't buy much. Therefore in
flation too is no help.
All this leads up to one thought . . .
What the average person wants is not
fluctuating dollars, but security; the
kind of security that gives him peace
of mind. That is the realistic defini
tion of wealth.
Considered in these terms, we, in
communities like ours, may consider
ourselves reasonably secure. We are
secure because our wealth is not in
dollars but is in food, forests and
other raw materials which the world i
must have for its existence.
Consider one of our industries, for
example pulp and paper. In 1932
in the year of the great depression
the employment index in the pulp and
paper industry was 27.79f higher than
the index for all other manufacturing.
Today, while most other industries
are looking uncertainly into the fu
ture and trying to decide whether in
flation is in store for them, the pulp
and paper industry, through the U. S.
Employment Service, is hiring new
woods and mill workers in order to
meet the very certain demands for
its products which lie ahead. This,
too, is the reason that the mills in
this area are urgently in need of more 1
top quality pulpwood now. j
