Title:: Chapter XIII. - Indebtedness

Collection:: Economics Books

242 CHAPTER XIII. Importance of Action. In concluding our discussion of indebtedness, we would again stress the importance of the question, and the gains which can be secured by even partially successful attacks on its problems. In dealing with matters of this kind there seems to us to be a tendency to reject the imperfect weapon and to wait in the hope that at some future date the perfect one will be available. Indebtedness is a formidable question, but its magnitude enhances the importance of attacking it and increases the results to be secured by successful efforts. Some of the methods we have advocated for application to industrial workers may be capable of wide extension, and there is no need to dwell on the great advantages to Indian industry that would immediately accrue from even a small increase in the purchasing power of the masses.
