Dear Editor,
INFLATION IS NOT HIGH
PRICESI According to Webster's
New American Dictionary, 1963,
"The condition of being inflated;
the act of inflating; a drop in the
value of money or an increase of
the money in circulation". The
American Heritage Dictionary,
1973, says that inflation is "l. The
act-of.inflating or state of being
inflated. 1. An abnormal increase
in available currency and credit,
resulting in a rise in price levels".
Please note that a rise in prices is
a result not the cause of inflation.
Inflation of our so called money
(Federal Reserve notes) happens
when our government prints more
money to pay its bills (deficits) and
the paper stuff goes into circula-
tion. And by the way, that newly
printed green takes its value from
that already in circulation causing
it to drop in value. No wonder those
on fixed incomes take a beating
every time government starts the
presses rolling.
When the supply of money is
increased and people have more of
it to offer for goods and the supply
of goods does not increase then
prices will go up. A price is nothing
more than an exchange ratio be-
tween a dollar and a unit of goods.
When people value each dollar less
because they have more, prices go
up, not because goods are scarce,
but because dollars are more abun-
dant.
One thing is for sure, the worst
of all false remedies for inflation is
wage and price fixing! When more
and more money is put into circu-
lation while prices are held down
people are left with unused cash
afl no goods to purchase. The final
result is higher prices, unless a like
increase in production is met.

So, you want to stop inflation?
Then remove the cause! Reckless
spending by our government and
its fraudulent means of paying for
it will continue to keep the money
presses rolling.
One other thing, if I were selling
Kool Aid at my front door to people
passing by, I'd charge them for it.
That price would be a total of my
cost of the mix, sugar, water, labor
cleaning glasses and utensils and
other expenses out of my pocket to
supply them with a finished pro-
duct and add a profit on the price of
each glassful to make it worth
staying in business. In other words,
I'd pass on to the consumer my
costs. If a business, large or small,
didn't, it would go out of business
in a hurry!
Sincerely
Charles Rogers
To the Editor:
After returning from a three-
week trip, I thought I'd like to
share with my friends some of my
experiences.
My sister Bertha Sampon From
Billings, Mont., had visited with
me a week before my trip and she
accompanied me and my daugh-
ter's family, Mr. and Mrs. John
Sims, J.D. and Kathy, to Laurel,
MOnt. Laurel is my daughter's
birth place and my home town.
Our trip started driving up the
Columbia River Gorge thru central
and southern Idaho to West Yel-
lowstone. We spent one day driv-
ing and sight seeing in Yellowstone
Park. We were constantly amazed
at the amount of tourists -- so
many campers & R.V.'s and trail-
ers on the road.
Leaving the park at North en-
trance at Gardiner, Mont., we
drove thru Paradise Valley where
Hollywood actors have recently
made a large land purchase.
Arriving in Laurel, Mont., after
31/2 days, we stayed with my
brother and wife, Mr. and Mrs.
Henry Gomer while there. I come
from a large family so we had lots
of visiting to do. On a Sunday
afternoon my sister Katherine
Herman celebrated her 70th birth-
day and 57 relatives gathered to
wish her well.
My kids and I went to Custer

THURSDAY, SEPTEMBER 8,
Battlefield and The Reno, Benton
Battlefield at the Little Big Horn.
Much work has been done here in
recent years and it is very infor-
mative. We also visited one of
Montana's newest dams, Yellow-
tail Dam.
My kids then went on a trip of
four days thru Wyoming, S. Dako-
ta, to Mt. Rushmore, N. Dakota, to
oil fields and Bad Lands, then back
to Laurel thru Colstrip, Mont.,
where they strip mine for coal to
produce electricity.
While in Laurel my brother, a
retired railroad man gave us a tour
around the railroad yards and my
grandson J.D. got to drive an
80-ton switch engine.
My nephew Robert Rider who is
a refinery worker gave us a tour
thru the Cenex Oil Refinery.
On our return trip home we
stopped at Virginia City and Neva-
da City, Mont. These were mining
boom town of the old west.
While driving to Butte, Mont.,
we encountered a fierce thunder
and lightning strom which forced
us to stop early-that day. This was
the only bad weather we encount-
ered during the whole trip.
In Butte we visited Beridey Open
Pit Copper Mine which is the larg-
est in the world, 1/2 mile down into
the earth and still mining a seem-
ingly inexhaustable supply of cop-
per.
All of the states we were in are
very dry but unique ways of irri-
gation solve the problem in some
areas.
Oregon always seems greener
and I'm certainly glad to be home.
