PA'flTC TTTREE GLASS SEES BANKRUPTCY NEAR FOR GOVERNMENT Extravagant Congress Push ing Country Toward Ruin Declares Ex-Treasurer in Debate On Relief Bill WASHINGTON. June 31. (AP) Senate administration forces. Ignoring -j economy pleas of their own leaders. rejected today an amendment to the relief bill designed to put more ot tlw c.t on local communities. The amendment of the l,500.OO0. 000 measure would have required states and local communities, where able, to contribute at least 40 per ent of the cost of WPA project. Just before the test, administration forces won a tactical victory by re jecting a modification of the amend ment proposed by Senator Rablnson of Arkansas. Democratic leader. WASHINGTON, June 21. (AP) Senator Glass D., Va.) punctuated heated senate debate on the H.SC0. 000.000 relief bill today with the as sertion that "congress is precipitating the country Into actual bankruptcy by its extravagance." The former treasury secretary, back In the senate after weeks of absence, lined up with economy advocates In favor of an amendment by Senator Robinson (D., Ark) to require local communities, where able, to supply as percent of the cost of WPA work' . projects. A?Vther advocate of the Robinson arnenQrhi. Senator Borah (R., Jd aho). said Ihcreaslng governmental pending waa "a NCPfplng paralysis" which had reached near the "heart" of the nation. Tax Increase Told ,'He said In 1850 taxes took only one eent of every dollar of Income, but In 1936, took 35 percent. "There must be a reduction," ne exclaimed. Ke spoke after Senator McKeliar (D., Tenn.) criticized the Robinson proposal as "unfair, unjust and lm poasible of fulfillment," and asserted he was "not willing to balance the budget at the expense of the needy." Robinson haa started political tongues wagging by his revolt on the pending bill. The veteran Arkansas rarely has differed publicly with President Rooaovelt since he became "boss" of the senate majority in March, 1033. Colleagues Surprised So colleagues watched him - with surprise today as he fought with the Republicans and some Democrats to invite Into the relief bill a curb on the administration spending. ; Robinson's amendment would re quire local governments, where able, to put up at least 25 per rent of the eost ol local projects. Senator Barkley (D Ky.), leading the administration's battle for an unrestricted bill, contended the ameniment would be rejected. Both Ides hoped for a final vote before nightfall. Friends forecast that Robinson would be back in the fold when the present Issue was settled. They said Robinson's attitude on th relief question reflected a deep-seated per sonal conviction. 4 SLIGHTLY HURT WHEN CAR UPSET : A 1036 Willys sedan driven by John Sherman Wolfe of 9 Park place overturned on the Pacific highway At the Intersection of Main street In Central Point at 0 o'clock last night, when It waa struck by a ma chine operated by Claude P..

"The question Is no longer one of triumphing over sectional discords and unifying the nation, but whether a united people putting forth its great strength for national ends, will leave appropriate scope for Individ ual freedom. "The question la not one of the adequate power of government, de signed to keep clear the htghwava of honest endeavous, but how that pow er shall be used." "Safe as we may still be In the present, what of the look ahead?" he asked. "Are our democratic impulses grow ing weaker, and under the pressure of economic forces and Insidious teach ings of an alien philosophy, will our democracy be able to survive?" Warning "put no confidence In mere forms or In Institutional ar rangements however astutely contrlv- ' ed In the Interest of liberty," the 1 chief Justice asserted "the security of our democratic Institutions Is not in existing constitutional provisions or framework of government but In the dominant sentiment which maintains them." now your Cigarette ..i. sir About r-;-startwuh Ja rloe tobaccos.
