PRESIDENT ROOSEVELrS second -"add" to. hi budget

- all to be spent through WPA. The first f add" was $500,-
vw,vw xor uireci appropriations to i aimers in ueu oi aaa
tax income. Congress went into the money spending orgy on
its own in passing the $1,700,000,000 appropriation lor; the
bonus.
So it now appears the federal deficit again will approx
imate 54,000,000,000 in the forthcoming fiscal, year unless
congress passes stiff er taxes, than any one contemplates in
an election year. ' - ; - ---.r-.- .

Hapkin's lap and $600,000,000 is to go for continuing -the
CCC camps. By another year the national debt, will have
reached the $35,000,000,000 mark, seven billions more than
the high point reached after the war.
r No person can demand immediate demobilization of re
lief. But there! Is' no sense in maintaining in full swing the
bureaucratic, centralized, highly political WPA organization.
The operation- ls too cbstlyxits control loo removed. Illustra
tive of how expensive WPA is is the fact that Oregon's share
of the proposed $2,500,000,000 outlay for the next fiscal year
will, be 19 millions of dollars. That is almost one half the sum
spent in the entire state for city, county, school district and
state government. One can be assured that , if Oregon were
r handling its own problem of relief no such siim would be re
quired ; the legislature would not approve- 19 millions for
: relief and no state treasurer could finance that sum if it were
voted.-,;- - ' ' . -.' - ' l' .

The $1,500,000,000 appropriation sought by the president
is only an election stop-gap. He graciously pared $500,000,000
from the Hopkins estimates, plucked a billion dollar appro

duct, of tho (Oregon) prison by
putting each inmate In "solitary

visitors, bis bread and -water

The appropriation of the Ore
gon state penitentiary for mala

nlum is f 455.843. That Is a good
deal less than a fourth of a mil
lion dollars a rear and in the
preceding biennium there wag
saving of about $10,000. There
may be as much or more In the
present one.

No modern prison in' the' world
confines the food of even men la
solitary confinement to bread and
water. Time was when no' food
was supplied to men la prison, ex

friends. .That was cheaper than
the suggested bread and water of
tho Silurian being quoted.

and mind only of the man of the

"I was In prison.- and yo came

you. Inasmuch as yo hare done It
unto on of tho least of these mj

Those words of the Muter had
a more significant meaning to his
hearers than they would have to
a modern audience; because men
then and theretofore not .visited

"e S
Idleman for tho pardoning
board no doubt meant the prison
parole board.
That brings up a big question.
In a modern society there must
be a pardoning power. That pow

logical place. -
