RELIEF SITUATION CONTINUES PARAMOUNT
Relief Administrator Hopkins' warning that the federal
government may have to spend billions of dollars more than
it has spent for unemployment relief and public works pro
jects is a sharp warning that one of the most important jobs
of the New Deal is a long way from being finished. What
ever else the present administration may seek to do, and
however widely its various policies may be criticized, there is
one point on which all hands are agreed. People who can't
get work are not going to suffer from hunger, cold, and home
lessness any longer.' ' " .

TO PAY BACK l
TAX FOR

(Continued From Page One)
Installment payments, thus keeping
their 10IJO and prior years' back taxes
off the delinquent lists. One Install
ment paid before July 1 would serve
to suspend sale of the property by
the county at least until Jan. 1, 1035,
and two payments would suspend sale
until July 1, 1035. even If no more
payments havo been made at present.
Under the ten-payment plan for
tho 1030 and prior years' back taxes,
tho property owner has five years to
pay up these taxes, providing he
keeps up his payments. Tho pay
ments are due every six montlis and
Include one-tenth of the tax, plus
interest on tho unpaid balance from
tho date of the previous Installment
payment. However, If payments are
not made on time thero Is a two
per cent penalty of tho payment
added.
"The tax collection office here has
no option In the matter," Deputy
Clayionib explained regretfully, "as
this ten payment law makes It man
datory or compulaory to sell for taxes
after three Installments are past duo.

uiven SOfiO.OUO.OOO this Hpnng
mer; but it is going; fast, and there is every indication that
it is not going to be enough. For there is pne disturbing fact
in connection with the recovery program. Unemployment
may be shrinking, and payrolls1 may be going up: but there
are today some 4,700,000 people on federal relief rolls, as
compared with 4,000,000 a

This brings us up against the key factpr In the whoje equation. Back
of all our talk about codes, reform measures, monetary policies, and the
like there Is this large, solid, and Interesting body of people who will starve
if the government doesn't provide them with food and shelter. They must
bo taken care of, because while the Job of caring for them Is expensive, Jt
tan't half so expensive as cutting them off the relief rolls would be.
The pressure which this fuct may exert on any recovery program Is not
a thing to bo overlooked. No estimate of the New Deal's accomplishments
