COVERED WITH BILLS A congreaeman, Charles Plum- ley of rock-ribbed Vermont, is pained by debt. He has spent some t me trying to demonstrate the magnitude of the national debt. It is a rather difficult thmg to do for a people who are used tc counting dollars one at a time- Estimating our post-war debt at 8300,000,(X0,000 (is that enough zero« to make three hundred bil lion?) Plumley says that this number of dollar b lls would cov er vompejely 768,709 acres of ground, about once and a half tim is as many acre« as are in Sherman county, larger than the entire state of Rhode Island. Worst of 4t is that even when so scattered they won’t grow. If all put into five dollar gold pieces (remember them) the pile ' wculd be 55,113 miles high, a five dollar gold piece, he says, is five hundred and 82 ten thousands of an inch th ck if you want to try y<?ur arithmetic, algebra or calculus on it. , Fifty men could barely pick up enough dollars one at a time to pay the interest, it was likewise reported. It must be well over $2000 for each of us by now. , But the situation • not going tc be improved by merely think ing about how big the debt ha* become. (Continued from Page One) » FRIDAY.
