Figure it out for yourself. Everything that goes

But these increased costs are not yet reflected
in Plymouth's price to you. The price of the big,

Problem of National Debt
TASK HARDER NOW THAN IN POSTWAR PERIOD.

present situation is not being used by
the Government to pay expenses, as
was the case in Germany. It finds its
way into circulation through the banks
and will get into circulation only so
far as bank depositors withdraw their
money.
The national debt of the United
States at the end of the fiscal year
ended June 30, 1882, was about $l9.-
500,000,000, not as high as in 1919,
right after the war, when 1t was $685.
500, 100000.
But in terms of its burden on the
people, the debt today may be larger
than the 1919 debt because this is a
time Of depression and 1919 was a time
Of prosperity. It was, in other words,
easier to collect taxes and to borrow
money because the Nation had more
money.
Bond Issues Proposed.
President Roosevelt has proposed a
budget reduction of from $500 OOO, 900
to 100000, GOO, which he believes will
bring expenses and receipts into bal
ance. On this basis, officials see neces-
sary Government borrowing rendered
easier because of this added indication
Of the Nations intention to maintain
the currency.
Others have proposed large bond is
sues to be sold on patriotic grounds
much as Liberty bonds were sold dur
ing the war to provide additional Gov
ernment funds for public works.
The theory is that such public works
would start the wheels of industry.
Rexford G.. Tugwell, one of President
Roosevelt's economic advisers, has pro-
posed such an issue.

CHEVY CHASE GROUP

High Favored.

The Chevy Chase Citizens Association
went on record last night as opposed
to any reduction by Congress in appro-
priations for the new Woodrow Wilson
High School and for an addition to the
Alice Deal Junior High School. 1t was
pointed out that minimum recommenda-
tions for these two schools had been
made by the Bureau of the Budget.
Action also was taken commencing
President Roosevelt for his prompt,
wise and vigorous handling Of the bank
ing crisis" and expressing appreciation
also to Senator Arthur Capper, former
chairman Of the Senate District Com
mittee, for his efficient helpfulness to
the people of the District Both resolu-
tions were offered by Edwin s. Hege.
The association also opposed the ap-
pointment of retired military officers in
selecting civilian members Of the Board
Of District Commissioners in the future
Having taken the position that civilian
Commissioners should be chosen in
preference to either Army, Navy or
Marine officers, even though the latter
might qualify by length of residence in
the District, the association nevertheless
refused to indorse any candidate for
any appointment to the board. Mr..
Hege reported on the action taken by
the Zoning Commission yesterday in
denying the petition to rezone for COM
mercial purposes the west side Of Con-
necticut avenue from Northampton
street to within a short distance of
Chevy Chase Circle. No public need
was shown for the proposed change, he
said, and the petition having been
denied. the question can not come up
again for two years.
An amendment to the constitution
was approved by which two additional
standing committees were created. One
of these will be known as the Maryland
Committee. its purpose being to CO.
operate chiefly with utility matters. The
other will be known as the Gardening
Committee.
DR.. B. Y. Morrison Of the Department
Of Agriculture gave an illustrated lecture
on gardens and plants. The president
Of the association, George E. Strong.
presided at the meeting. which was held
in the auditorium of the E. v. Brown
School in Chevy Chese.

n YEW YORK R.-A principal
nj factor in maintaining the
" soundness of a nations cur
4 rency is preservation OF its
credit-an end toward which
vigorous efforts are now being made
at Washington.
How this can be done Is question
arousing adherentS on both sides OF
the general question of whether a
governments budget needs to be bal
anced in times of stress and whether
such a governments credit Is not un-
limited despite and whatever the status
of the budget.
When Budgets Don't Balance.
If a government fails to balance Its
budget year after year, denclt may
accumulate which cannot be paid
through taxation since, in period OF
stress, it may be impossible to collect
sufficient taxes.
To pay expenses such a government
NAV be forced into issuing fiat money,
which is currency based on nothing
more than the governments promise
to pay at some future date.
If the government uses such currency
to pay its obligations 1t will dilute the
nations money supply, with the result
each unit of the currency Will have
less purchasing power.

war this expansion proceeded 70 sucn

Warrington, Sept. 29.-(R-organ-

OF some American Federation Of La

Of MIRA officials were considering
possibilities Of temporarily relaxing
present standards of wage-raising
and hour shortening efforts so far rs
they affect the construction and al
lied industries.
Green's 30-hour week demand vir-
tually clinched the absolute opposi-
ton Of union labor to any such plan,
whether for the construction or any
other industry. NRA officials giving
thought to the problem also were
quick to emphasize their considera-
lions must be reviewed by Hugh s.

ton Of Labor Thursday "the slack In
employment Is not being taken up
Is rapidly as conditions demand"
He added:
THE one remedy that must be en-
ployed is . six-hour day, five-day
week. Unless the existing codes are
modified and the new ones SO phrased
that they approximate that level.
then labor will be compelled to 60

No code vet promulgated has re-
duced maximum working hours to

ficials said the study being given the
construction industry, including the
possibility Of granting even higher
maximum hours than have yet been
approved, was founded on desire
to keep labor costs down In order to
attract capital investment.
