A STATE FACES BANKRUPTCY Dorothy Thompson devoted one of her late newspaper columns to conditions in the state of Washington. T -u monwealth, she said, “is now up against the inevitable cris' of the welfare state—the same crisis the British people Lav. had to face, namely, the rude awakening that there ain’t n< Santy Claus.” The trouble stems from a remarkable measure, called “the citizens’ security act,” which was passed in 1918. N >w, to <(uote Miss Thompson again, “this prosperous and . > 0- gressive state faces bankruptcy. Although the j»eople vot' d to increase the already advanced social security lenefi:.’, their representatives have not dared to vote the t ... . ; finance them. That would explode the happy idea that : । - thing can be obtained for nothing. The result is a deficit ap proaching $100,000,000. . . “A study of the condition of this state is recommended to all advocates of socialized medicine and cradle-to-the- grave social security. There are families here who, taking ad vantage of the multiple possibilities of state aid, are drawing down $400 per month and refusing, naturally, jobs at S200 t $250. . . highway. I.inietto m FORECASTS BIT CEOVDY (Reynolds Knight) There’s no accounting for tastes—or. apparently, for the predictions of some economists. Consider the iollowini new year forecasts, both by top government officials: Said one, “An era of prosperity lies ahead;” the other, “A short term boom will be followed by a more serious slump' Evi- dently somebixly’s crystal ball is a bit cloudy. But this isn’t surprising. For if we as a learned anything about economics in the first half of the art. Out on 20th century it is that forecasting is a hazarc the “firing line” among the business men and women who move the goods of industry into the hands of consumers we find a divergence of opinion, too. Nearly half of a group of wholesalers polled by Dun & Bradstreet expect higher sales volume during th» y< :t-’. first quarter than for the same periixi in 1919. On the ether hand, of a group of retailers similarly polled, about half pre dict a drop in sales. A third group polled, however, tips the scale toward op timism, at least for the immediate outlook. This group ir composed of manufacturers who in most instanei s have the advantage of reports from nationwide sales staffs upon which to shape their views. uni il to normal weather st.

The state of Washington has been singled out in this in stance because it has gone to an explosive extreme. But other states are being tempted to follow7 the same path. And the national government, with its huge deficits in spite of near- record income, is the worst offender of all.
