DEBTS FALL Due.
And that has not included adequate
provision for the retirement of SO
much Of the public debt as is of short
maturity. Secretary of the Treasury
A. W. Mellon has pointed out that
within the next two years about seven
and one-half billions of short-dateG
debt, or about SIS for every person
in the country, will fall due. Also
that only about one billion dollars
will be available for such retirement
at that time, and that other arrange
ments to carry the balance will have
to be made.
What reduction has already beer
made in the short-dated debt which
originally was over nine billions, ha'
been made possible in large part BY
reduction of the general fund and BY
receipts from war salvage, but onl,
in very limited measure by tax re
ceipts.
Altogether, the country's gross deb
amounts today to approximatel,
The gazette-times. [volume] (Heppner, Or.) 1912-1925, 1922-01-05

twenty-four billions. The greater part
of it natures within seventeen years,
and the balance falls due in the nine
succeeding years.
When it is considered that the tax
payer today, as pointed out, is already
required to pay in annual interest
charges alone practically as much as
was the entire public debt of five
years ago, and that governmental op.
Grafton has been costing about nine
times as much as before the war, il
is not difficult to realize the onerous
burden upon the taxpayer to retire
the war debt. In other words, he
would have to provide an average ol
a billion dollars year additional ir
taxes, over and above the financing
of the ordinary governmental opera
tions. =.
And all this besides the paymen
of the state and municipal taxes.
1t is not to be doubted that the
prospect of all this has been having
and still has decidedly discouragint

prosperity-the outstanding problem

BUSINESS MAKES READY.
Business many months ago sensed
the beginning of the reaction from
the artificial war time boom, and
quietly, unostentatiously prepared it.
self to meet the depression it saw
coming, and to begin adjustment to
the changing conditions. Retrench-
ment became the watchword. Econ
omy measures were put in operation.
A higher degree of efficiency was in
jected into business operation. The
immediate result has been that bust
ness has curtailed its expenses prac-
tically to the pre-war basis, and is
gearing up its productive efficiency
per dollar of operating cost to point
far beyond the record of the last few
|years.
Business thus made itself ready to
cope with the new order of things
following in the wake of the world
conflict.
But the problem of today is Par
more complex than can be met by pri-
vate initiative alone. 1t is too close
ly connected with governmental op-
Grafton not to require governmental
action to help in its solution. lr
great measure il is financial prob
lem.
Cost of government during recen
years increased apace with the cos
: of all else. And today, with changes
conditions, it is primarily essentia
: for the general welfare that the cos
> of government be brought back dow
! to a basis in keeping with retrench
ments found necessary in private ur
dertakings. Governmental servic
must continue undiminished, but 4
must be performed at a cost far be
:, low that Of late years.
The problem was of two-fold as
pect, first from the standpoint Of fl
ture operating cost of government
and second, with respect to discharg
af the financial war obligations.
On the manner with which thi
dual problem is handled largely d.
q pends our entire economic future.

Do politics and business mix?

Do politics and business mix?
The business Of politics is the busl-
ness of government in its final analy-
sis. Is your government-and that
means your business, for you are a
partner in the American government
in fact as we'll as theory, to be con-
Quoted on lines other than good busi-
nesss lines? If it be so-why? Good
business means the successful con-
Quoting of a commercial pursuit in a
general sense but it also means the
successful pursuit of any activity OF
a creative sort, productive sort or
constructive sort. Surely government
municipal, state, or federal, must be
creative, constructive, productive and
commercially sound if that govern
Iment is to succeed
In the face of this obvious reason
ing there are thousands of citizens lr
the United States today who declare
the fallacy, business and politics Dc
not mix" the foundation of their owr
lack Of interest, lack of active citi
zenship-exercising the right of suf
frage-and lack Of belief in the ver
institutions that make them citizens
The attempt to put business ant
politics, in their relationship towarC
one another, in somewhat the samt
relationship as oil and water, is botl
unfortunate and unwarranted.
If the theory behind it was tina
the business man cannot and shoulC
not actively interest himself in polit
ical affairs, it was wrong in premise
and principle, for as the citizens par
ticipation increases in political life
there results better politics and bet
ter government.
For, in the last analysis, politics o
course is but the science Of govern
ment. .....
Then again, if the supposed unmix
able status Of business and polite
related to practical application to tn
affairs of government, of the meth
DDS that are fundamental to moder1
business practice, the declaration wa
even more inapt and untrue.

GOVERNMENT TO RETRENCH.

For its proper solution, it is essen
tial that there be emulation by all
governmental agencies, whether ma
tional, state or municipal, OF the ex-
ample set by private business in cut
ting down to a minimum, the recent
high expenses, and in displacing the
cost so cut off with boost in Ell
iciency. Better results in the admins
tration of public work will go far IN
meeting the situation. 1t will ease
somewhat the staggering burden on
the public, but it will sill be faced by
the tweny-four billion dollar pubic
debt to be wiped out practically with
| in the next twenty years.
1t being virtually certain that the
national government will not be able
to retire the seven and one-half bill
lion of short time debt when it falls
due in the next two years-except
only in small part-it follows that it
will have to be refunded. The same
condition is certain to repeat itself
as the Liberty bonds of the later ma
turtles fall due.
