backing of strong public opinion to help him
win his fight. Usually public opinion is slow to
arouse and often its enthusiasm for retrench-
ment soon cools off. The apathy which the
people show toward extravaganza is best illus
trated by their unconcern over the amazing dis
closures of waste in the conduct of war.
Millions of dollars are involved in these reve-
lations of an extravagant waste of the public
funds but the people do not seem to care. For
instance, Chairman Graham, of the house war
investigation committee, has shown that the
town and plant Of Nitro, which cost the govern
ment $7O,OOO,O00, about 100 per cent more than
it was worth, will be sold for Sc, 100000.
This project cost $35 100000 more than 1t
was worth in the first place, and now the govern
r,ent intends to sell it for $8,500,0O0 and throw
in for nothing material estimated to be worth
100000. One would believe that the people
would demand that the government obtain at
least fair salvage price for the plant but some
how we permit this waste to go on without clamor
and opposition.
And while federal officers tolerate these con.
ditions, the government tells us that the high
cost of living is attributable to extravaganza in
our households and to desire to live beyond
CIR means. 1t is perfectly clear to some of us
that if the public money is squandered by the
hundreds of millions some one will have to pay
the bills.
And that some one is the taxpayer When.
ever dollar is wasted in the administration of
the government, pay for it in taxes The
greater our taxation, the less money we have
for investments, savings, and other purposes.
All the advice of the government about the
necessity of hard work and of thrift is almost
an insult in comparison with the reckless man.
in which the public funds spent. Let the
government practice economy in it's own affairs
before it tries to play the part of reformer and
teacher of thrift. Secretary Meredith will dc
great public service if he succeeds in cutting
down expenses in his department.

WHAT'S THE MATTER WITH
AMERICA?
BY George Matthew Adams

The biggest trouble with America
is that it needs to get to work!
Money is coming too easily to thou
sands who have no understanding of
money value Their idea is to see
how little they can do-for the larg-
est price The other day, there was
d call for 10000 men to shovel snow
in New York. A dollar an hour was
offered. But only 5000 reported!
The farmcr-than whom there is
no better citizen OF any country-is
getting discouraged. He is thinking
Of cutting down his crops and stock
or of selling out and moving to the
city CIR somewhere where he can sit
on the front porch and watch the
crowd go by, himself, He can't get
help.
Easy work and big pay is the motto
of the hour!
1t ISM the fashion to milk cows
and feed pigs and plough corn. Work
has taken on "style," and these things
are now acclaimed as "old fashioned!"
The backbone of the prosperity of
any country lies in its railroads and
farms. And not for half century has
there been so little progress in rail-
road building as at the present time
in America AS for the farma--tl y
arc crying OUT for workers to move
fruit that is rOtting on the ground and
TO till soil for the coming crops. And
unless these things are done, the cost
Of living will soar until it can't be
reached at all.
What's the matter? Old fashioned
WORK has gone out Of style!
America faces one of two things
its greatest prosperity, or it's greatest
panic! 1t can't have both. If the
panic comes, there will be no pros
perity. II prosperity comes in all its
reality-folks have got to work, And
this means everybody, both in low and
high estate.
Big production means low costs
The good wage, hard work and every,
body working because they like to
work, go together.
When there are enough folks plant
inS the seeds for the food for hens
the hens will lay plenty Of eggs-and
they won't cost a dollar a dozen
either!
Good luck follows good sense, good
judgment, good health, a gritty de
termination, lofty ambition, and
downright hard work.-Marden.

Useless Government Employees

Secretary of Agriculture Meredith has set
himself the task Of abolishing useless offices and
useless employees. He believes that too many
government employees drawing pay without
giving in return an honest days work. Their
designations are to be demanded, he says The
work of many offices, he believes, can be con-
solidated with others, thereby both improving
the service and reducing it's expense.
His ambition to cut down expenses in the de-
partment of agriculture is laudable one, very
patriotic, and assuredly worthy of our support.
But the feeling will not down that the secretary
will have a much harder job to cut down the list
of employees than he imagines. 1t is easy to an
nounce program of retrenchment, but mighty
difficult thing to dismiss federal employees.
Secretary Meredith has overlooked the influ-
entail part which politicians play when their
friends are to be ousted from their jobs. Friends,
politicians and special interests get busy without
delay, so that usually the intention of the head
Of a department to GUST incompetents is frus-
trated effectively before his plans are we'll under
way.
1t is easy to create public jobs and ap-
point employees to do the work, or, perhaps, loaf
on the job; but to abolish jobs and set the holders
adrift is an entirely different question: which
Secretary Meredith will discover before he has
gone very far with his retrenchment plans.
