and to innovate many other hotel con-

No Money in Treasury

The accumulation Of these appro-
priations is represented by govern
Taent obligations deposited in re-
serve fund, which fund now amounts
10 about $750,000,000.
A loan basis to certificate holders
vas established, equal to 80 per cent
u the reserve value of the certifi-
Gates, such loans now in the sixth
year being authorized to 221s per
cent of the face value"
When the bonus act was passed
Is was upon the explicit understand
'ng Of the congress that the matter
was closed and the government
would not be called upon to make
subsequent engagements.
1t now is proposed to enlarge the
loan rate to so per cent of the face
value, at a low rate of interest,
nus imposing potential cash out
lay upon the government of about
Si,700,000,000 if all veterans apply
for loans, less about $33O0O0,OO0 al
ready loaned.
According to the administrator Of
veterans affairs, the probable num-
Der who will avail themselves of the
privilege under this bill will require
approximately $1,00O,00O,OO0. There
not being a penny in the treasury
10 meet such demand, the govern
nent must borrow this sum through
sale Of reserve fund securities, to-
gether with further issues, or we
must needs impose further taxation.
The Indianapolis times. [volume] (Indianapolis [Ind.]) 1922-1965, 1931-02-27
Government Is Liberal

Pensions or allowances have been
provided for the dependents Of those
who lost their lives in the war; IL
lowances have been provided to
those who suffered disabilities from
the war; additional allowances were
passed at the last session of con-
gress to all veterans whose earning
power at any time may be impaired
permanently by injury or illness;
free disqualification is available, not
only to those suffering from the re-
suits Of war, but to large numbers
Of temporarily i'll.
Together with war risk insurance
and the adjusted compensation,
these services now total an annual
expenditure Of approximately $780,
100000 and under existing laws will
increase to $800,000,000 per annum
in a very few years for World war
veterans alone. A total of S5,0OO,-
oOO,O0O has been expended upon
such services since the war.
our country thus has shown its
sense OF obligation and generosity,
and It's readiness at all times to aid
It's veterans in need. have the ut
most confidence that our service
men would be amongst the first to
oppose a policy Of government as
slstance to veterans who have prop
erty and means TO support them
selves, for sci zee men are as de-
voted to the welfare of our country
IN peace as in war and as clearly
Ioresee the future dangers of en-
barking on such a policy.
1t could but create resentments
which ultimately would react
against those who should be given
| care.
The Indianapolis times. [volume] (Indianapolis [Ind.]) 1922-1965, 1931-02-27
Interest Rates Go Up


Some cost arises to the people
through the tendency to increase
the interest rates which every state
and municipality must pay in Dor
rowing for public works and I'M
provements, as well as the rate
which industry and business must
pay.
There is cost to someone
through the retardat.on of the speed
Of recovery Of employment, when
government borrowings divert the
savings Of the people from their
use by constructive industry and
commerce.
1t imposes a great charge upon
the Individual who loses such in
creased employment or continues
unemployed. To the veteran this is
a double loss when he has con-
sumed the value of his certificate
and also has lost the opportunity
for greater earnings.
There is a greater cost than all
this: 1t is step toward government
aid to those who can help them
selves. These direct or indirect
burdens fall upon the people as a
whole.
The need of our people today is
a decrease in the burden of taxes
and unemployment. yet they (who
include the veterans) are being
forced steadily toward higher tax
levels and lessened employment by
such acts as this.
We must not forget the millions
