Being unable or unwilling to pay | all her bills by taxes, Germany re- | sorted to inflation and paid partly by paper money newly created for that purpose. German inflation wh 80 down in history as the most in- structive lesson in unstable money the world has ever seen. it has not only been the symptom of Germas. economic degeneration but has be- come in turn the principal canse of that degeneration. It created a vie. fous circle which drew Germany down to the bottom of a madly whirling vortex where she now Hes struggling 'to recover by substituting the more stable rentem mark and gold mark for the discredited pape, mark. Inflation is a form of indirect taxation; for, just to the extent that the government compels the people to take marks which depreciate, to that extent its taxes the people.
