My hat is off to these realistic
statesmen. I hope their ranks soon
embrace the entire Congress.
Our Debts are Huge
America's next chance to have a
balanced budget will be in the fiscal
year of 1947. It starts July 1, 1946
and ends June 30, 1947. The United
States is already in debt for every
thing it has. This does not mean all
the country is worth, but it does
mean an amount equivalent to the
value of everything the people of
this nation have saved since their
ancestors started saving.
The national debt is 280 billion
dollars. That figure approximate*
the value ef all the farms and farm
improvements in the country, all
the city real estate and city im
provements, all the manufacturing
plants in the nation, all the bank
accounts, and all the insurance poli
cies, all added up.
Starting Over Again
The United States stands now
where some pioneer settler of colo
nial days might have stood if his log
cabin had burned with everything of
food and clothing inside. Closer to
home: The energi tic young family
man with two children, who has just
finished paying for an $8,000 resi
dence, can depend on starting now
to buy it all over again in taxes,
paying no more than his rightful
share of the national debt which is
$2,000 per man, woman and child.
Tax on this enormous debt will be
a new, yearly expense for our gov
ernment. It will be a big one too.
Interest on debt alone will cost
Uncle Sam more than he ever raised
by taxes in any single pre-war year.
If there ever was a time when
America’s common people deserved
a balanced budget so they could
look frankly and boldly at the truth
of debts and taxes, it is now.
Fighting Has Ceased
There are ways to start balancing
the national budget and the sooner
it starts the better. The war is over
and war bureaus can be reduced In
size and cost. The number of fed
eral employees can be cut more
than most of us imagine. Deficit
spending (spending what we do not
have) can be stopped also If we
really set our heads to do i t By
doing this we can save what we do
have left.
With all savings gone, we have
something left. The settler whose
cabin burned had his energy and
his good name left. The home owner
who must start buying all ovar
again In taxea, still has hia credit
and a Job we hope. Juat so tht
United States, with prestige aKfcng
nations and a sound economy, ha*
something left, something of value
that must be preserved.

Sane Men
Early in March, national press
wir-s carried a story from Wash
ington to the farthest corners of the
country, about 16 members of Con
gress who said they thought the
national budget should and could be
balanced. They were half-and-half
senators and representatives. Seven
were Democrats and nine were Re
publicans and they made it plain by
signing a written statement. They
are:
