The State Planning Commission has published the control figures of the Soviet national economy for the financial year 1925-1926. This may sound dry and bureaucratic, but in the dry columns of figures and in the equally dry explanations of them, we can hear the glorious music of socialism in growth. Agriculture, industry home and foreign trade, the volume of money in circulation, prices of commodities, credit operations, the State budget, are all shown in these figures in the process of their development and correlation. The control figures have been prepared by a state institution having the higher commands of economics. Planning Commission and the figures and all sorts of estimates of any capitalist State. The control figures connect certain processes with others and thus establish the equilibrium of development. The fears of some and the hopes of others have been seriously tested, and the result is given in the control figures of social and economic estimates.
