Financing the War and the Poet-War Readjustment
AD addreas delivered by Daniel W. Bell, Under Secretary of the Treasury, before
the Worceater Economic Club,
Worcester,
Massachueetta
December 15, I9U3.
.

I welcome the opportunity to discuss with you this
evening the problems of financing the war and the postwar readjustment.
It is because we feel that these two
problems are so closely tied together that I have chosen to discuss some aspects of each in the same address.

War Finance

—

In the first place, the burden of a tax or of any
other compulsory levy, even if it is subsequently reimbursable must be levied according to fixed rules.
These rules can take but little account of individual
circumstances.
It requires considerable time for many
individuals to adjust their living standards and commitments to the new and lower levels which would be
dictated by all-out wartime taxation.

—

has come to be generally recognized that the
real cost of a war must be paid for while it is being
fought.
This real cost consists in the labor put forth
and the sacrifices endured in order to produce and to'
use the goods of war.
Guns cannot be fired until they
and their shells have been made, nor can they be fired
with time borrowed from tomorrow. The labor and sacrifice involved in these things must be made today and
cannot be postponed.

While some individuals are revising their living
standards downward,
other individuals, whose incomes
have been increased by the war to levels considerably
above those required to meet their former standards of
living, are ready and willing to lend a substantial
proportion of their increased incomes to the Government
in order to insure their future security.

There are, of course, some exceptions to this rule.
A war may be fought, in small part, by the use of
stoolcs of goods aooiuEulated before it begins; and, to a
much larger extent, by postponing the replacement of
capital goods wearing out during its course.
With
these exceptions, the whole physical cost of a war must
be paid for while it is being fought.

Ultimately, if the war should last long enough,
these adjustments mlgnt be continued under a steadily
Increasing burden of taxation until each person's
standard of living and financial commitments had become
adjusted to hie place in the war economy.
This is
unlikely to occur, except in a very long war; and, in
the meantime, a considerable proportion of the total
war cost must be borrowed in order to avoid unnecessary
disruption in the economy.

It

What then, it may be asked, is the role of war
borrowing. The answer must be that war borrowing is a
method of postponing, not the cost Itself, but the
final allocation of the total burden of the war to some
future date, when the costs now paid for through the
sale of bonds are finally assessed in the form of taxes
at which time it is inevitable that a much larger
portion of them will be paid by the persons now in the
armed forces than if they were assessed today.

—

Taxation vs. Borrowing
When this fact is seen in its stark reality, it is
clear that the money cost of the war should be met as
far as possible by taxes, and so be paid for once and
for all by today's civilians at the same time that the
men in the services are paying their much higher price
Exceptions from
in human cost on the fighting fronts.
this rule should be permitted only when clearly Justified by special circumstances.
There are a number of these special circumstances,
and it is because of them that the Treasury Department
has never recommended to Congress that the whole cost
of the war should be paid for out of current taxation.
But it is these exceptions, and not the general rule,
which need special Justification; and I should like to
explain to you tonight, not why the Treasury has recommended to Congress additional taxes, which if enacted
would only provide sufficient revenue to cover about
one-half of total Federal expenditures, but rather why
it- has not asked for taxes to cover the full cost.

The use of borrowing, to the extent that it is
Justified by special circumstances, makee for a smoother
working of our war economy than would the exclusive use
of taxation. What are these circumstances under which
borrovjlng is thus the superior instrument of war finance?

In the next place, the magnitude of our war effort
is fixed by our full gross product, rather than by our
net

national Income.
This means that during wartime
replacements and repairs on plant and equipment must be
postponed, as far as possible, so that the manpower and
materials which they would otherwise have absorbed can
be thrown into the war effort.
Producers, as well as
consumers, are asked by their Government to 'Use it up.
Wear it out. Make it do, or Do without."
This means that during the war period, the capital
assets of most business firms are wearing out more rapidly than they are being replaced, and the depreciation
reserves set aside to offset this wear and tear are
piling up in cash. At the same time, the accounts receivable of these firms are running down, which results
also in piling up cash.
These fur.ds are all available
to be lent to the Government; but they are not available to be taxed since they represent capital, rather
than income, of the firms possessing them, and represent very different proportions of the total capital of
different firms, depending upon the type of business.
A policy of borrowing these funds, rather than taxing
them away, is, therefore, clearly Indicated.
In the third place, the great wartime expansion in
the economy requires even at a constant price level
§reat Increase in the available supply of currency and
bank deposits; and this Increase, under our existing
institutions and under wartime conditions, can be supplied only by an increase in Government borrowing.

—

—

Finally, it is necessary that some financial incentive be supplied to individuals to work long hours,
and to corporations to operate with the utmost efficiency.
If the whole of the extra incomes resulting
from the overtime pay of individuals and the efficient

';hese

The borrowing which le Justified entirely by the
special oonalderatlone which I have Just enuaerated
would have to take place for our wartime economy to
operate SBOothly, no matter how willing Congress might
be to levy additional taxes or the people to bear them.
This borrowing alone would amount to a great deal of
money by peacetime standards; but It would certainly
be much less than the nearly fifty billion dollars a
year which we should have to borrow even If the Treasury tax proposals were granted In full.

Principles of War Borrowing
I turn now to our policies with respect to wartime
These have been dominated by the following
borrowing.
considerations.

First, we have tried to borrow as much as possible
from Investors other than commercial banks. This principle must be stated subject to some qualification.
It
would neither be possible nor desirable to do all of
our borrowing outside of the banking system,
I have
already explained that one of the reasons for borrowing
at all, rather than relying exolaslvely upon taxation,
is that an expanding wartime economy needs
even at a
constant price level
a greatly Increased amount of
currency and bank deposits.
These can be obtained,
under existing Institutions and In wartime, only by a
corresponding Increase In the Government security holdings of commercial and Federal Heserve Banks; and a
sufficient amount of securities have to be sold to the
banks to provide this necessary circulating medium,
even If adequate markets exist for them elsewhere.

—

—

The amount of Government securities which would
thus have to be sold to the banks In any event Is substantial; but. In practice, I must admit that this has
proved little of a problem, since It has taken care of
Itself by th« rapid expansion of the borrowing needs of
the Federal Government and the slower development of
nonbanklng sources for Federal borrowing.

For this reason, we have directed our main effort
to the sale of securities to nonbanklng Investors. During the past year, we have sold to such Investors, net
after all switches and redemptions, about forty billion
as compared with
dollars of Government securities,
about thirty billions absorbed by the banks.
Second, we have tried to make the securities sold

to

the

The Treasury Is less concerned with the large volume of demand obligations which Is being built up by
the sale of savings bonds to small Investors than It
would be with the only practicable alternative to this
course. This alternative would be the sale to small
Investors of marketable securities payable by the
Treasury only after the expiration of a fixed term of
years.
The fixing of a definite term on securities sold
by no means Insures that they will
be held by these Investors for the full term. By and
large, the holders of marketable securities would sell
them on the same occaelons when holders of redeemable

securities would redeem theirs.
Important occasion upon which marketable securities
would be sold, but redeemable securities would not be
redeemed that Is, the fear of a decline In price, from
which the non-negotiable securities are Immune.
to small Investors

—

Now It may appear, at first glance, that while the
Treasury should be properly concerned with redemptions.
It should not be concerned with market sales, since It
must meet the redemptions out of Its own pocket; while

the market sales will be taken up by somebody else.
Thle type of reasoning would suffice for a private borrower, but It Is entirely Inadequate for the Treasury
since It overlooks the real problem which the holdings
of Government securities whether redeemable or marketable
by small investors will present in the post-war
period.

—

—

This problem Is that the holders of these securities may dispose of them and spend the proceeds on consumers goods at a time when the supply of such goode
will be scarce; and the spending can result only In
price rises. This problem would exist, however, whether
the securities were payable on demand or were negotiable and payable at the close of a fixed term, and will
be somewhat: less troublesome for demand securities, because, as I have already pointed out, the liquidation
of this type of security will never be precipitated by
the fear of a fall in the price of the security Itself.
'

The other problems which will be caused by holdings of Government debt by small Investors In the postwar period are minor, relative to the major problem
which I have Just mentioned; and will be less serious
with demand obligations than with negotiable obligations of fixed term.

When savings bonds are presented for redemption
to the Treasury and it is neceseary to refund them, the
Treasury offers the type and maturity of new eecuritles
best suited to the market at the time, and offers these
securities for distribution through the regular channels of the Government security market.

might dribble Into the market in such a
way as to keep It continually disturbed. They might
not be fitted by coupon rate, maturity, or other oharaoteristlos for the predominant demand then existing In
the market, but they would have been oast in whatever
mold they were, once and for all, and the market would
have to make the best of it.
To the extent that the refunding of demand obligations would have been accomplished by the sale of securities to banks, so also would the marketable securities find their ultimate lodgment in banks, but only
after a roundabout Journey, probably Involving both
loss to their original purchasers and a higher interest
cost to the Treasury.
It seems clear, therefore, that the Treasury is in
a much better position to refund the non-negotiable se-

curities than the individual would be to refund negotiable securities through the market.
The third of the principles governing our borrowing policy has been the maintenance of the liquidity of
the banking system.
We have laid down the policy that
no securities will be offered to commercial banks for
the Investment of their demand deposits with a maturity
at time of issuance of over ten years.
The great ma-

jority of the securities sold to commercial banks have
had maturities far ehortei than this.
Indeed,
more
than half of the total increase in the portfolios of
commercial banks since Pearl Harbor has been in the
form of three-month Treasury bills and one-year certificates of indebtedness.

Thla CTenlng I shall discuss only three aspects of
fiscal planning for the reconversion parlod, and these
briefly.
They are, flret, the cancellation of war oontracts; second, the adequacy of corporate financial resources to carry on tha work of reoonTerslon; and,
third, the control of IndlTldual apendlng during tha
reoonTerslon period.

Cancellation of War Contracts
If the war should end today on all fronta, thara
would be outatandlng more than 75 billion dollars of
war oontracta on which dellverlea had not yet been made.
Much of the material coTered by these contracts would
be of no use to the OoTernaent If It were delivered
after the Immediate emergency of this war had passed.
This Is beoause there are no goods with respect to
whloh obeolesoence runs faster than It doea for the
goods of war; so the best preparation for future wars
consists In maintaining the skills and plant capacity
necessary for the development, production, and use of
new war goods rather than In hoarding Tast quantities

of old ones.

laaedlately following the olose of the war, we
will be confronted with the problea of reoonTerslon.
The period of reoonTerslon will be a tine fraught with
ezoeptlonal hazard to our econoalc structure.
During noraal tlaea, aost of our people are engaged In producing goods which they and their fellow
workers oan buy with their wagea. During wartlae, they
are largely engaged In producing war gooda which thay
cannot purchaae with their Incoaes, but the eicasa purchasing power which Is thereby created la held In ohaok
by direct oontrole, by personal taxation and by OoTernaent borrowing froa IndlTlduals. The people are willing to accept and oooperata with theae measures beoause
of patrlotlaa and the all-perradlng spirit of sacrlfloe
whloh exists during wartlasa. During the reoonTerslon
period, howBTer, while the tools of production for
peace goods are being aade ready, purchaalng power aay

The abrupt cancellation of war contracts will give
rise to two problema.

also by oonelderatlonB of eoonomy; for without It, we
are unlikely to seoure abrupt cancellation at all, and
there 18 no form of relief more expensive than the production of unneeded tools of war.
We should be sure,
however, that the treatment accorded labor displaced
from war production Is of such a character that It encourages, rather than slows down, its quest for peacetime employment.

Payments to contractors should be Just In accordance with a fixed standard of equity; that Is, they
should be enough to make the oontraotore and their subcontractors whole for the losses they have sustained as
the result of the contract cancellations.
It Is Important also, that payments to contractors
should be prompt.
This Is not primarily for the benefit of the contractors themselves
although I have no
doubt that they will appreciate It but for the benefit
of the country as a whole.
A dollar paid out in the
settlement of war contraota during the early reconversion period may In terms of national well-being
be
worth several dollars paid out a year or so later. It
Is far more important, therefore, that the settlements
be prompt than that they be accurate to the last dollar
according to some accounting concept, which may Itself
be open to question.

—

The settlement of war contracts along the lines
which I have Just outlined will involve a heavy outflow
of funds from the Treasury in the few months Immediately following the end of the war. We are prepared
for thlB outflow, and we feel that there will be few
occasions when a disbursement of funds may be made with
so little real cost to the Government and so much benefit to the eoonomy.

mates of the Federal Reserve Board, the demand deposits
of nonflnanolal businesses,
including unincorporated
enterprises, amounted to over 30 billion dollars at the
end of last July; and, according to Treasury estimates,
the holdings of Government securities
payable for the
most part on demand or at very short term by nonflnanolal corporations alone, amount at the present time to
about 20 billion dollars.
Each of these figures is far
above any peacetime precedent; but, to make the picture
brighter, American business, during the same time it
has been acquiring them, has reduced the amount of both
its bank loans and Its bonded debt.

—

—

Third, generous carry-back and carry-forward provisions included in the corporation tax laws insure
that corporations suffering losses during the reconversion period, or even earning incomes of less than their
excess profits credit, will receive substantial refunds
of the taxes paid in their prosperous years.
These refunds
for the expediting of which the Treasury has
made recommendations to ths Congreeslonal committees
will be available to carry on the work of reconversion.
In addition, there is provided in the present law a
post-war refund, irrespective of future tax status, of
ten percent of the excess profits tax paid in the war
period.

—

—

For the reasons given, I do not believe that the
adequacy of business funds for reconversion purposes
will present a major problem. But I cannot speak with
equal assurance with respect to the prospects for the
control of individual spending during the reconversion
period
the third post-war problem to be discussed.

—

Control of Post-War Spending
Immediately following the end of the actual fighta let-down in the willingness of people to submit from patriotic motives to a
continued reduction in their consumption.
There
is
likely to be a demand for an Immediate end of the direct controls; and this demand may, to some extent,
succeed.
For some time, however, while industry is being reconverted and the war effort demobilized, there
will be only a very gradual Increase in the supply of
consumers' goods.
When it is considered that there
will be available to be spent currently, in addition to
the Incomes being received for the production of consumers' goods, not merely the Incomes from work in demobilizing the war effort and reconverting private Industry, but also the large liquid resources piled up
during wartime, It is easy to conjure up the specter of
a post-war inflation.
ing, we can probably expect

Corporate Financial Resources
for Reconversion
My second point with respect to the reconversion
period relates to the adequacy of corporate financial
The
resources to carry on the work of reconversion.
adequacy of these resources Is important, not merely or
even principally from the point of view of the corporations Involved, but from the point of view of the whole
economic system.
We In the Treasury have given careful consideration to this mattsr, and believe that funds for the reconversion of war Industry will be ample, provided that
a-prompt settlement is made of canceled war contracts.
Our reasons for believing this are as follows:
First, the wartime period has been a profitable
one for American corporations as a whole.
Net corporate profits, after taxes, hav? averaged about twice as
much per year during the wartime period as they did In
the years 1935 through 1939 (the base period for the
and, by and large,
FTIB index of industrial production)
the greatest increases have gone to those firms whose
Corporate
problems of reconversion will be greatest.
dividend policy, furthermore, has been so conservative
that most of the Increase in corporate earnings has
been added to surplus.

Against this must be set the powerful force of
human foresight and sobriety.
The reconversion period
is bound to be attended by considerable unemployment,
and each Individual will naturally ask himself how he
le going to come out in the swirl of readjustments he
sees around him.
His natural tendency will be to "play
it close to the chest" and handle his reserve funds as
carefully as possible. This human tendency alone may
maintain a high rate of saving during the reconversion
period, and so forestall the possibility of a post-war
inflation.

Second, in addition to their savings from undistributed earnings, American corporations have piled up
a large volume of liquid assets as a result of repayment of receivables, and In some cases reduction In inventories, and the general inability to expend depreciation and depletion reserves which has been brought
about by wartime conditions.
According to the esti-

We hope that this will be so; but counting on it
would be as Improvident as counting on an internal
smash-up in Germany to win the war. We must consequently lay our plans to prevent a post-war inflation
from occurring,
but stand ready to adjust any such
plans on short notice to conditions as they actually
develop during the reconversion period.

Treasury Market Financing
On November 22, 19'''}, an exchange offering of oneyear certificates of Indebtedness was made to holders
of $3,800 millions of l/&io certificates of Indebtedness
due December 1, 19'*3. the certificates which were originally sold during the First War Loan In December 1942.
The books were open three days, November 22 through 24-.
The new certificates were offered In exchange for the
old Issue, par for par, and no cash offering was made.
The new Issue Is dated December 1, 194-3 and will mature
December 1, 1944.
Of the $3,S00 millions of the maturing Issue, 83.5'W millions were exchanged for thp new

Issue and $26o millions were turned In for cash.
On December 15, I943 there was a maturity of $421
millions of 1-1/g^ Treasury notes originally Issued on
December I5, I93S.
These notes were paid off In cash.

Announcement was made on December 13, 1943 that
the 3-l/45i Treasury bonds due April 15, 1946, and callable two years earlier, were called for redemption on
April 15, 1944. Approximately $1,519 millions of these
bonds are now outstanding.

Plans for the Fourth War Loan
The Fourth War Loan campaign will open on January
and will continue through February 15.
The
goal of this drive will be $14 billions, of which $5.5
billions are to be raised directly from Individuals.
In the Third War Loan, the goal for Individuals was
$5.0 billions out of a total goal of $15.0 billions.
Ig,

19'*^,

The major emphasis throughout the Fourth War Loan
will be on sales to Individuals and the general outlines of the drive have been formulated accordingly.
Only sales to Individuals will be reported up to February 1, although subscriptions will be accepted from
other nonbank Investors during the whole period.
It Is
hoped by the delayed reporting of these other subscriptions to concentrate attention on sales to Individuals.
The success of war financing depends very largely upon
the response of Individuals, If Treasury borrowing Is
to be effective not only In raising the necessary funds
but also In helping to check the pressure on prices of
excess funds In the hands of Individuals.
All subscriptions for savings bonds and savings notes cleared
through the Federal Reserve Banks during January and
February will be counted toward the goal of the drive.
The table which follows presents the chief characteristics of the securities to be offered during the
The list of securities is similar to
Fourth War Loan.
that offered in previous war loans, except that the
marketable Intermediate-term bond has been changed in
maturity and coupon rate, and the issue has been made
unavailable to commercial banks (except for the limited
investment of savings deposits), until September 15,
1946, at which time the period to first call by the
Treasury will have been reduced to 10 years. The seven
securities to be offered are as follows:

Savings bonds. Series E, F, and Q
Savings notes, Series C
l/Sio certificates of Indebtedness, due
February 1, 1945
2-1/4^ Treasury bonds due September I5,
1959, callable September I5, I956
2-1/2^ Treasury bonds due March I5, I97O,
callable March 15, I965

As in the Third War Loan, commercial banks are excluded from direct participation in the drive, except

that they will be given concurrent opportunity for the
limited investment of savings deposits outside the
drive as discussed below.
In order to minimize the
amount of Indirect participation by commercial banks in
the Fourth War Loan, the Treasury has asked the cooperation of all banks in declining to make speculative
loans for the purchase of Government securities.
This
policy, however, is not Intended to Imply any disapproval of loans which fit the requirements set forth
in the Joint statement by national and State bank supervisory authorities on November 23, 1942, namely that
the loans be made to enable Investors to purchase bonds
In anticipation of Income, and that they be made on a
short-term or amortization basis and be fully repaid
within six months.
In order to avoid unnecessary transfers of funds
from one locality to another during the Fourth War
Loan, the Treasury has requested that all subscriptions

by corporations and firms be entered and paid for
through the banking institutions where the funds are
located.
The Treasury will undertake to aee that statistical credit for such subscriptions Is given to any
locality that the subscribing corporations and firms
may designate, except that subscriptions from Insurance
companies will be credited to the State of the home
office as in the past.

Concurrently with the Fourth War Loan, commercial
banks holding savings deposits will be permitted to
subscribe to the 2-1/4 percent and the 2-1/2 percent
bonds.
Such banks will also be permitted to subscribe
to Series F and Series G savings bonds on and after
January 1, 1944. The formula for oommercial bank participation in these securities is that any such bank
holding savings deposits as defined in Regulation Q of
the Board of Qovernors of the Federal Reserve System
may subscribe to any or all of the four bonds in an
amount not to exceed, in the aggregate, 10 percent of
its savings deposits as shown on the bank's books as of
the date of the most recent call statement required by
the supervising authorities prior to the date of subscribing for such bonds, or $200,000, whichever Is less.
Under no clroumstanoes, however, will a bank be allowed
to hold more than $100,000 (issue price) of Series F
and Series
savings bonds (Series 1944), combined.
