Economy Shams
THE nation's taxpayers and that means the nation's
population will be lucky if the current and forth
coming economy talk in Washington is anything more
than idle babble and sham.
There is a considerable movement to reduce expendi
tures for non-defense activities. It is absurdity to continue
huge outlays for agencies set up in depression times, when
there is no longer a depression and employment is steadily
rising. That absurdity is heightened when there is ter
rific pressure for expenditure for defense.
But congressmen are congressmen, and the sternest
advocate of economy always wants the other fellow to do
the economizing. The same goes for people back home,
who put the pressure on their congressmen for allocations.
Another factor in the national capital which lessens
the chances for economy is the grasping attitude of all
government bureaus. Rather than quitting when their use
fulness is no longer evident, the bureaucrats always try
to get more power and more spending authority. Right
now .they are all busy trying to show where their activity
has something to do with defense, in order to justify their
getting slices of the big defense spending pie.
President Roosevelt, an extravagant spender of the
public money, likes to taunt congress on the economy ques
tion. The president sicks his bureaus into the spending
field, spreads government largess over large areas, and
then asks congress to make suggestions for the cuts. He
has recently indicated it was the responsibility of the peo
ple in the house and senate to make spending reductions.
But the president has never shown any disposition to
let the people in the house and senate take the lead in
other fields of government endeavor. A display of leader
ship on his part in the matter of reducing non-defense
spending would make a most profound impression and
would do the country a lot of good.

Whale of a Sensation
SCIENCE, proclaims a breathless newspaper article, has
at last affirmed that a whale really could have swal
lowed Jonah.
It seems that a Dr. Eugene Maximilian Karl Gefling.
professor of pharmacology, having little to do one dull
day, crawled through the gullet of a (dead) whale. He
found it slimy, but definitely roomy.
If this unpalatable feat had been performed by Joe
Doakes, fisherman, it would have proved just as "much
about the Jonah-capacity of whales. But it wouldn't have
justified that delectable headline, "Science says "
Anyway, it's nice to think that in these days, which
