Comment on the- Day s News By FRANK JENKINS HERB an tha totals, by years (quoted In tha senate the other day by Senator BchweUenbach) of STATE AND LOCAL funds used for relief since 1033: 1033 .138,703.819 1034 641,807,560 1035 714.637,758 1036 1,344,037,241 humor I find tt Impossible to laugh about such a thing. "But nobody seems to worry about tha debt. We spend and wa spend and wa spend, and there are some of ua who rote for all appropriations and agalnat all taxsa. I do not name anyone. Sometimes I'ra been Inclined to get Into that class myself. But the point I'm making la that wa cannot go on FOREVER doing It." VVJO, wa can't. A debt that la made a haa to be paid. Or REPUDIAT ED. And In many ways repudiation la tougher tlian paying. In either event, the penalty la severe. But one of tha hardest Jobs In the world Is to STOP SPENDING. ministration to meet them In public debate. Time on the air for the first week in July baa been made available by the Columbia Broadcasting system and Senator Wheeler la willing to meet all comers. It la claimed that Attor- ney General Cummlngs, Secretary of I the Interior Ickea. and Secretary of Agriculture Wallace have been ap proached but are unavailable. The name Roosevelt appears only seven tlmea In the Washington tele phone directory, and only one of them Is a person Mrs. Henry L Roosevelt, wife of the lata assistant secretary of the navy, a cousin of the president. The others are: a beauty shop, a hotel, a market, a pharmacy, a ateam shlp compny, a high school and a valet and laundry service. All these except the high school (named after T. R.) and the ateamahlp company (Kermlt Roosevelt's) were named af ter the. hotel which was here before F.'D. R. arrived at the White Houea. On the other hand, there are aev enty -eight Hoovers In the telephone directory, and all of them are people but one. REMEMBER, these are stAte and local funda only. They do not Include federal expenditures for re lief, which in 1036 amounted to more than three and three-quarters BIL LIONS of dollars. THE point Is that the total for 1033, when bustneae was pro strated and need was dire, was rel atively email. In 1034, when recovery waa Just beginning, the total waa much larger. In 1936, when real recovery waa be ginning to aet In, It waa STILL LARGER. In 1036, when prosperity Waa ao far advanced that a boom was beginning, tha total was VASTLY LARGER than ever before. HERB la a question that la worth pondering: If relief expenditures Increase each year ea PROSPERITY IN CREASES, what will they amount to by the time the next depression comes along? And here la another question: What will we use for money, by that time, to PAY RELIEF WITH? (Continued item Page One ) .TpHE public debt of the United states was 930,300,123,005.80 at the last calculation a few days ago. This total drew from Senator Joseph T, Robinson, of Arkansas, Democratic leader In the U. 8. senate, this comment: "You may laugh about a 30 million dollar debt hanging over the treasury of the United States If you wish to, but with all my refined and expanded sense of The preliminary barrage seems to consist chiefly of the adverse report of the senate judiciary committee. Tt Is already the government print ing office's best seller for all time, as far as committee reports go. It Is said that the biggest single order, when and If placed, will be for 300,000 copies of the report to be distributed by the national commit tee to uphold the constitution, a pri vate group which has been helping the opponents of the bill. This or ganization la credited with having distributed more than 3,000,000 antl- reorganlzatlon speeches during the heat of the controversy this spring. The senate, by resolution, request ed the printing of 40,000 copies of the report, which was described by observers of the needs of the antl ad ministration artillery, as "not a drop In the bucket." Senator Burke's office alone has had calls for 1,600 copies; Represen tative Bacon of New York has order ed 1,600 copies; other large orders are keeping the presses rolling'.
