Necessary In Order
To Expand Business
ASSOCIATED PRESS)

BOSTON, Feb. 23.-America's posi-
tion as a creditor nation will probably
result in the use of American capital
wherever business is done but expan-
sions of business and trade of the
nation will depend upon PAY as we
go" policy, Elliot Wadsworth, assist
ant secretary of the treasury, told the
Boston Chamber of Commerce today.
I'VE owe" said Wadsworth, "$23,-
500,000,000 whereof $500, 100000 will
be due in less than 18 months. This is
too large a proportion of floating debt
for any business institution. Our fed
eral budget is balanced so far, but
next year we face a deficit. Where
we are considering new and further
expenditures for soldiers bonuses,
ship subsidies and other federal activ-
tiles money should be provided to
meet such expenditures from and not
by further borrowing.
PAY as we go must be the principle
of financial management of this coun-
try or soon we will be talking not of
lending but of borrowing and shall
have cause for worry about our fu-
ture."
The speaker contrasted the inflated
currencies abroad with the situation
in the United States where he said
the holders of Liberty Bonds have
made a profit of $4,000, 100000 in the
last 18 months.
