Abstract: A plan to combat inflation, specially the galloping inflation, is stated in thispaper through a simples method which, using a combination of the income policy and avery moderate restriction of demand, consists of the introduction of a new currency or theprice-stable “secondary currency”. After its introduction, the prices and the principal incomesshould be frozen. According to the author, the success of this plan, for any country, willdepend on the obedience to important requirements about its budgetary deficit and currentaccount deficit.
