Falling Commodity Prices and the Dollar Stabilization Debate
The Dallas News cites U S Labor figures showing the general commodity price index fell to a postwar low in May, tracing swings since 1913. It notes peaks at 226.2 in 1920 and a slow, irregular decline to below 1921 levels, with economists debating future trends and the impact on wealth distribution and business activity. It argues stabilization of prices is not a cure but would aid prosperity, referencing Fisher and Ford on dollar purchasing power and the need for wide wealth distribution.
