Miraole Doctors and the Church
The United Church Observer publi-
shes a delightfully fantastic plan by
one, George E. Creed, to provide "in-'
tei•eet-free" money for churches, Why
should churches contribute to unearn-
ed, private 'profits by paying interest
on mortgages? the whiter asks. Lot
the,Bank of -Canada- "create" the mon-
ey, lend it to the churches, which in
turn would cancel the created money
by annual payments of one -fiftieth of
the capital amount. ' The. scheme,
says the -author, "is as sound and rea-
sonable as anything, could be."
But he lets the cat out of the bag.
He is not as much ' interested in
churches, as in promoting a "crazy
money" sehem:e. If we can...provide
interest -.free money for churches, why.
not for homes he asks. His scheme
is, after_ all, just a minor application
of the Hallett brand of inflation. The
application to churches is just to a-
rouse interest in the larger plan of
getting all out our public works,
churches, houses, etc., without cost, by
the 'simple 'process of having the
Bank of Canada print the necessary
money er .set up the necessary credits
in its ledgers.
If someone had suggested to the ed-
itors of the tlnitecl Church Observer;
that they publish a article proposing
that churches be "paid for" by prin-
ting press inflation, they would no
doubt have been shocked by the sug-
gestion and would have rejected the
plan summarily. But when a writer
conceals that very plan in a lot of non-
sensical language about our "iniqu-
itous money 'system" and a "practic-
al, non -inflationary plan" for "inter-
est free money" they do not hesitate
to let the article go out to delude
their readers and crouse hopes of the
creation of new "wealth" in the form
of figures in a bank ledger.
All these fantastic moneyschemes
are based upon the :mot fallacy .that
bricks and motor and labor and things
can be created by writing digits in a
book. . They assume that token cur -

reney. is wealth and net just a claim on
.wealth. They overlook the fact that
inflation' is simple taxation, the most
inequitable, and uncontrollable form'
of taxation, .
When churches— or' factories or
homes or railways. --are built there is
an expenditure of labor and materials.
In otherwords wealth in its only tang-
ible forms is utilized. If churches• can
induce people ,to give their ^ time and
their materials free to construct new
buildings; they can get their churches
free. But there is no getting around
the fact that thelabor and the Mat-
erials have been consumed and there
has been a transfer from the individ-
uals to the churches of the real val-
ues represented. •
If the churches' were financed by
inflation there would still be a trans-
fer of the value. The church would
have the product of the labor and the
materials. No doubt much of the
laborand materials now used for
other purposes' could be atter devot-
ed to the construction of churches
But printing press inflation -will not
assure fair and just diversion.
The United Church, like other chur-
ches, is largely dependent upon two
things: .the loyal work of the labor-
ers in the vineyard and the generous
contributions of people who have
made their money by work and self
denial. Churches should be as wary
of witch doctors in the field of fin-
ance as they are of witch doctors and
charlatans in the field of religion.
The United Church Observer is ill
serving the cause of Christian belief
by letting false ideas be propagated
in its cohsn ns. If it thinks that
churches should be built out of public
funds, raised by taxation, let it say
so. But it should not ask its readers
to trust in the staff of so broken a
reed as currency inflation,
"In the sweat of thy face shalt thou
cat bread" and in the sweat of hap.
piness of human work will churches
be built. --Financial Post.
