Government is pictured as a wastrel, spending the nation into hock and leading us all down the road to fiscal perdition. Actually, however, the debt shoe is on another foot. It is private not public debt that has been soaring since the war, and hence sparking our recent inflation. Federal Debt Has Decreased Between 1939 and 1945 (with a war to fight) Federal'debt grew by leaps and bounds, increasing in fact by about four times in six years.

Since then, however, Federal debt has decreased the gross figure from $278,000,000,000 to $267,000,000,000. The net figure (debt less Federal bonds owned by government agencies) is materially below this figure, moreover, standing at about $210,000,000,000 today. And even if we include a post-war increase in state and local obligations, the over-all figure for all public debt is still slightly lower than it was in 1945. Not so with private debt, however, which has gone from a post-war figure of $140,800,000,000 to over $304,000,000,000 today. serenata.

In 1945 the American people owed .24,000,000,000, including moitgage they owe $82,000,000,000 today. But business debt has also increased rapidly. Corporations today owe about $100,000,000,000 in short-term debt, twice the 1945 figure. While with some $66,000,000,000 in long term bonds now outstanding, corporations have increased this form of debt by about 75 Only one group has carefully avoided this debt expansion the oft-burned farmer, whose debts today are actually less than in 1945. Private Debt Cause of Inflation Whether or nbt this high level of private" debt is sound is a matter which must be left to professional economists.

Even the experts do not agree, and the question is currently -rgued vehemently. But one thing is certain it was this post-war expansion in private debt that was at the root of our inflationary boom; for the shortage of goods that was characteristic of recent years was in large part created by the fact that people were willing and able to go heavily into debt to buy them. By the same token, the increase which is still taking place in private debt must in large part be responsible for the relatively even keel on which the economy rests today. on the unconvincing side. the performance: the trio of Act Also on the screen is "Dangerous 3.
