PAYING OUR BILLS

Depression's best friend is the man or wo-
man who can, with little or no effort, pay his
or her bills promptly-but doesn't. During
the war it was serious offense to utter Sc
ditious remarks or to commit unpatriotic
acts. Today, with the whole world fighting
a great economic war, thousands who should
be doing their bit by paying their bills
promptly are actually aiding the enemy de
pression-by letting the grocer, the land
lord, the coal dealer, the newspaper, the doc.
tor and others wait for the payment of
goods that have been delivered or for sery-
ices rendered. Payment of these bills lin
full or in part-will help reopen old jobs and
stimulate business. Slow pay means slow
er return to better times.

HoARDED MONEY

Records show that there We're 1,345 bank
failures in 1880, and 1000 in 1881 large
number of the failures of 81 were the result
of raids fcaused by people terrorized thru con-
fidence destroyed; others of course, because
of actual mismanagement, but such were in
the minority.
s. The bank situation, all experts agree, is
very greatly strengthened and the story of
1892 will be far different from that of the
last two years.
short time before the formation of the
National Credit Corporation it was estimated
that over billion dollars had been with
drawn from banks and put into stockings,
under mattresses, buried in the ground, or
placed in safety deposit boxes-Hoarded
Money.
Normally, we do a total business in the
United States Of between eighty and ninety
billion dollars per year. And we do it with ap-
proximately five billion dollars of cash, which
represents our total of money in circulation
Thus, each dollar makes about IL round trips
year; in other words, each dollar in circula-
ton does SIT worth of business. This is why
the recent report of the committee on unem-
ployment relief lays such stress on the mat
ter of boarded money That boarded billion
in cash on the basis of SIT worth of business
for each dollar in circulation represented Il
billion dollars less business activity per year
in our country. And II billion dollars worth
of business means approximately million
jobs.
None of us would like to think that we
are personally responsible for man being
out of work and for his wife and children
suffering from want. Yet every man or Wo-
man who is boarding $235 is depriving some
other man or woman of years work.
No one is asking us to spend our savings
in order to bring back good times. But the
Presidents committee is asking us to make
our savings work for us and give work to
somebody else"
Here is where every man in business who
has been boarding can help himself and his
industry. Let us help dig out this boarded
billion. Remember that every dollar circulat-
ed does SIT worth of business.

A GOOD PROGRAM

Here's good program for the United
States to follow:
Keep the nation, at time when there are
more war-dogs growing than at any time
since the World War, in what Washington
called "a respectable posture of defense"
Put the unemployed to work by erecting
such economic defenses as will insure the
American market for American competitive
products as against foreign products made
cheap by cheapening workers, and increase
our foreign trade by the greater purchas-
ing power for non-competitive imports that
will thus be created.
, Drop the job of saving Europe from itself
and tackle the task Of saving America for
ourselves.
Keep our nose out of foreign quarrels,
thus keeping out of wars with the causes
and purposes of which we have nothing to
do
Stick to sound currency, even if the rest
OF the world goes to using wampum for
money.
Let our foreign debtors pay or repudiate,
just as they wish, and take the consequences,
since we cannot do nything about it any
way.
Taking breathing spell in paying off the
national debt until we get the money with
which to do it.
Use the axe on public expenditures until
we are able to pay the bills past extrava-
gance has created.
Stir up revival of old fashioned patriot
ism and religion and get away from some Of
The Kennewick courier-reporter. [volume] (Kennewick, Wash.) 1914-1938, 1932-03-17

the fads and follies that have mussed up our
national thinking.
Impress our statesmen and financiers that
looking after the United States is a bigger
job than they have been able to handle and
that hereafter that they will be expected to
look after the people from whom they got
their power and their money
Get back to common honesty and common
sense in private and public affairs.

KIDNAPPING STIRs NATION

Climaxing the series of kidnapping that
has stirred the nation for the past year or
more, is the most despicable that could be
conceived, the kidnapping Of the world fam
GUS Lindbergh baby.
No person with human heart can fail
to feel deep sympathy for any mother whose
baby has been kidnapped, for no more poig-
nant grief can be imagined than that suffer
ed by woman whose child has been stolen.
She cannot know its fate; whether or not she
will ever see it alive again, nor what suffer
ing it faces One thing that adds many fold
to the crushing blow is the consciousness of
the fact that her baby is at the mercy of
criminals of the most brutal and heartless
type, prepared to stop at nothing to carry out
their purposes. It is easy to imagine that
The anguish of the mother is far greater
than if the child had been accidentally killed,
for even tho there is hope left when the
child is in the hands of kidnappers, the sus-
pense, the uncertainty, the realization Of
the helplessness, more than offset the re-
naming hope.
It is high time the country were thoroly
aroused to the menace Of the rapidly increas-
ing activities Of the kidnappers and that
every step that is possible be taken to. curb
and discourage them.

first caused our citizens to come here One
or two local citizens who have seen the fold

think of it, we aren't so badly off here. Be-
lieve I'll quit looking around and make up

for me to make my home. is the comment
