The government has been hand
ing out so much money in so many
directions, the veterans friends will
argue, that the eX-soldier should be
penalized no longer in the name of
'emergency."
The treasury is expecting sur
plus for the next fiscal year over
normal expenditures, and, although
no one knows what the emergency
bill will be, veterans will stress that
fact.
Veteran expenditures last fiscal
year were 1898 100000 and will run
over $6O0,OO0,OOO this year. Although
a $350,000,000 saving was expected,
veteran costs in the first four
months were but 63,OOO,0 900 under
those for the same period last year.

part of it in case the cost of living

part of it in case the cost of living
rose.
The Budget Bureau is providing
for restoration of 5 per cent, in
volving $45 100000. But some con-
gressional leaders favor giving back
the entire Is per cent and such
restoration is not unlikely.
Further bank reform
and control is fairly certain in this
administration. Mr.. Roosevelt wants
a uniform national banking system
which will absorb national and state
banks under close control and pos
sibly headed by strong federal
central bank.
He is firmly Convinced that in
situations which operate with other
peoples money" should be scrutin-
lied carefully. The recent Wiggin-
Chase National Bank disclosures
have made congress and the public
more "anti-banker" than ever and

as he wants.

The year shot into action
with the Inauguration of Gov
arnor Paul V. McNutt, scholar
politician, following a terrific
Democratic landslide.
Seeking a complete control of gov
eminent, Governor McNutt forced a
revolutionary shakeup in state Of
fees. The term, deserving Demo-
craft was coined as positions were
stuffed with members of that party.
A progressive legislature, domi-
mated by Governor McNutt and Earl
Peters, Democratic state chairman,
threw out the Wright bone dry law,
framed new sales tax, and decreed
that city elections should skip a
year. A controversial storm met the
beer bill but it was pushed through
after many compromises.
Earl Peters resigned his post and
announced his candidacy for United
States senator. DR.. Carleton B. Nc
Culloch was named new state chair
man.
Thirsty citizens gleefully con-
sumed 100000 cases April 7 as beer
returned to the state. A mounting
wave of protest brought draught
beer, by edict, although it was bar
red in the beer bill. Beer prices
came down.

congress was strongest, the vet

out $100,00O,000 of proposed

the economy act passed, including

nection.

well as non-Service disability pen

Demand also is made for hospi-
talization of all veterans requiring
it, though the economy act barred
disqualification for service con-
nected cases.
Finally, the legion will lobby for
abolition if interest payments on the
bonus loans, which would save vete-
rans-and cost the government
about $5O,OOO,OOO a year.

Eighty-five percent of the women
believe the country will be better
off after the depression than it was
in its most prosperous years. Other
findings of the survey:
Ninety-two per cent believe that
everyone. or at least some specific
group, have benefited from the

Ninety-three per cent believe
they should support only firms loyal

Seventy-nine per cent think the
