Crippied Woman Needs Help.

Still needC1 (apprOxlmately). S<SS.Vo
Although Mrs. H. had been separated
from her husband for several years be-
cause he refused to support the family
and was extremely cruel to her and the
children, she was happy and thankful
that she was able to support her chill
dren by working as a SaieSwoman. The
family lived in small and simply FUR
nished but comfortable apartment, and
by careful management Mrs. H. was
able to supply the needs of herself and
the three children. When they returned
home from school each child had his
own tasks to do SO that mother would
not have to work so hard"
Then came that unfortunate morning
when Mrs. H., about to board a street
car, was struck by a speeding automo-
bile. After long weeks Of pain and suf-
fering in the hospital she was allowed
to return home. The doctors were able
to avoid amputation. but there is little
hope the leg will ever be well enough to
permit Mrs. H. to return to work, and
it is Just recently that she has begun to
walk with the aid of a cane. There are
days when the pain Is SO intense she Is
barely able to get about. but in spite of
her handicap the small home Is spotleSS
and the chlldren's meals ready when
they come from school. Clara. who has
two more years in high school, can
hardly wait until she Is able to work
and help care for her mother and two
younger brothers. The sum OF $500 Is
needed to keep this family together for
another year.

At one time the j. family was well
Of. Mr.. J. had almost paid for a small
modern dwelling in the residential sec
tion of the city. He owned q small
clothing store and did fairly well until
the depression came on. His main con-
Germ was caring for his wife, who was
suffering from heart trouble, and his
four youngsters, ranging from 2 to y
years of age. In 1929, however, busi-
ness became slow. Mr.. j. was no longer
able to keep up the mortgage on his
property and the mortgage on 1t was
eventually foreclosed. In order to meet
the bills of his business Mr.. J. borrowed
from every source, and when his cred
itors pressed him he became frantic.
He knew only one thing-that his wife
and children must not suffer.
He began passing checks. Inlngs
went along smoothly until the bank
brought the matter into court. Mr.. J..
is now serving a sentence. His wife
and four children still must be cared
for. Mrs. j. has heart trouble and 1t
is impossible for her to work, even II
lob could be found. She hesitates to
accept assistance, but she is helpless
and knows she must depend on some
one to see her through this crucial
period Mrs. j. is good manager and
can care for her famlly's needs on $50
a month. The sum Of $1,000 would
give the family food, clothing, shelter
and medical care for a year.

Ours is a government of all the people,
created to protect and promote the
common good, and when the claims
of any group or class are inconsistent
with the welfare of all, they must give
way. Various groups and sections Of
the country have brought insistent and
delaying pressures to bear for the adop-
ton or rejection of various projects
which would yield great economy and
revenue. They have not realized that
sacrifice by all groups is essential to the
salvation of the Nation. They have
not recognized the gravity of the prob
lens with which we are confronted.
They apparently do not know that by
their actions they are imposing losses
on members of their own groups and
sections through stagnation, unemploy-
ment, decreased commodity prices, far
greater than the sacrifices called for
under these suggestions. The Govern
ment cannot be dictated to by organized
minorities. Such action will undermine
all popular government. 1 know that
these actions do not reflect the will of
the country and refuse to believe that

to the pool of unemployment and deSti-
tuition when it lis entirely unnecessary
and can be provided against by the
same measures which were undertaken
by industry at the request Of the Gov
eminent itself nearly three years ago.
In the category of further economies
which can only be made by changes in
laws which would give authority to the
Executiv and the Appropriations Com
mitteeS, many items were proposed by
executive officers of the Government,
and some portion of them were en-
bodied in the bill presented by the
Special Economy Committee to the
House of Representatives. Less than
$50 900 900 direct and definite savings
were covered in the bill which finally
passed the House. Many Of the in
determinate and indirect savings in that
legislation cannot be realized until late
in the new year or after that.
MANY of the recommendations which
were rejected by the House of Repre-
sentatives should again be considered
Aside from the economy proposals
affecting employees which are here in
cluded in the above discussion Of the
/
increase the direct savings provided for
in the House economy bill from $780,
600 900 to from $130,000000 to $780,
900 900, plus many indeterminate items
which would result in further economies.
These savings would be over and
above the amounts of savings referred
to in the direct appropriations. With
out ~oing into the merits or dement's
of the proposals. they do represent the
correction of abuses and the curtail-
ment of unnecessary functions of the
Government and embrace items that
can be dispensed with during the pres
ent critical period.
Authority Restricted.
"In the category of economies that
can be made by consolidation, reorgani-
zation, and elimination of the less
necessary bureaus, commissions, etc, the
authority given in the measure passed
by the House of Representatives is so
restricted that it cannot be made
effective until late in the next fiscal
year. In order to expedite this economy,
I earnestly recommend that the Execu-
tive be authorized to proceed immedi-
ately in the consolidation of public
works, and personnel, partly provided
in the House economy bill, public
health, merchant marine, conservation,
education, munitions manufacture,
Army and Navy hospitals, aviation
fields and other specific Army and
Navy activities which may advantage
ously be consolidated for the purpose of
economy and more effective administra-
ton. The savings to be made are in
determinate but very considerable If
made by Executive action within the
above direction from the Congress they
can be made promptly.
THE imperative need Of the Nation
today is definite and conclusive pro-
gram for balancing the budget. Un-
certainty is disastrous. 1t must be in
every sense a national program. Sec
tional, partisan, group or class con-
siderations can have no place in it.

CHILD'S PLEA WINS

Says Baby Girl in Court.

"They took my buddy away from

This earnest plea of a blue-eyed
baby sister for her 5-year- old
brother was more powerful than
lengthy arguments of attorneys in
superior court two today, causing
dismissal of a habeas corpus suit.
Fred c. La BoyteauX of Columbus,
claiming legal custody to his son,
Fred Jr, sought court order to get
the boy from the divorced mother,
living at 908 Bosart avenue.
When it appeared attorneys would
be unable to agree, the little sister
made her plea to the mothers at
torney:
Il want to play with buddy &.
they took him away from me-"
The attorney transmitted the
child'S declaration to Judge Joseph
r. Williams.
After listening to the legal aspects
of the case, Judge Joseph R. Will
liams advised attorneys to Yield to
desire and welfare" of the two
playmateS.
The case was dimiSSed when the
mother agreed to keep the boy until
Aug. 20, then return him to the
father at Columbus.
