INCREASED EXPENSE JUS
TILTED BY ROACH
Answers Stand-Pat Organs
Which Decry Democratic
Extravaganza"

AS touching State finances,
Secretary of State Cornelius
Roach has the following to say:
"Soon after the biennial peri
cd of 1914 closed certain of
the old discredited standpat or
gans set up a hue and cry about
how much more money the Dem
ocratic State Administration
spent than was spent the two
previous years. They never tell
what the expenditures were for,
but they invariably leave the
false inference that useless Job
holders consumed it in salaries.
"The facts are, as the official
records disclose, the Job holders
were virtually the same both
periods. No rate of taxation
for State purposes was increas-
ed. Rates remained exactly the
same those years, although the
rate for 1915 and 1916 has been
decreased. More funds, howev-
er, were raised for State purpose
es, but the increase was due to
the more thorough and equita-
BILE enforcement of law, and to
the natural growth and prosper
ity of the State. Increased rev.
enue warranted increased ex-
penditures for necessities and
progressive public work.
For instance, in 1911-12, as
State aid for better roads, $780,
488.58 was spent; while in 1913
IA for this purpose there was
spent $685., 445.86. This is a
part of the extravaganza charg-
es the standpat papers have been
ringing the charges upon. Dur
ing the latter period the eDmo-
cratic State administration spent |
for improved roads $5S5,957.28 |
more than the previous bienni-l
um. Here is one of the reasons

Secretary of State Con. Roach
writes the Globe-Demoerat the
truth as to Democratic record
for increase in State revenues.
The facts are that there was a
net increase of $287, 945 for the
years 1918 and 1914 over the
years 1911 and 1912, when the
Republicans were in control.
The Globe, as usual, is starting
