loudly about "Americanism. Others,
who had served at least an appren-
ticeship with the working classes,
were less certain where the line be-
tween thrift and good luck, or shift
leSsnesS and hard luck, should be
drawn.
Anyway, for a moment l looked at
several of our group and saw them
for what they are-selfish, unthink-
ing parasites, none of whom had
earned the price of her salt for 20
years. some of whom had never
known any but the swansdown life.
They know nothing about the iiv-
ing conditions of the thousands who
serve them. The milk man only
exists in their consciousness when
he is late with the coffee cream.
Servants are automatons fashioned
by nature to be exploited by the
well-to-do.
Consequently their lectures on
AmericaniSm and thrift and the cur
rent scene are ludicrous. Since
when have they practiSed thrift,
these stout. SNUG ladies? Since
when have they eaten except by the
generosity of the men who happened
to marry them or of fathers who
had money? Do they not exist on
unearned incomes, these gilded
lilies?
Yet you will hear them often COM
plain. "Oh, 1 simply hate sordid
pictures and books. Isn't life hard
and ugly enough without thrusting
its most odious phases in our
faces?"
Yes, milady. it is. Hard enough
for the millions who sweat so that
you may eat cake, hard for the
farmer who produces your food, and
for the underlingS whom you call
shiftleSs. For you belong to those
who, having eyes, will not see, and
having ears, hear not.

TREASURY ISSUE
REGARDED AS TEST
Reception for Long Term
Offering Will Indicate
Market Capacity.
BY FREDERICK GARDNER,
Associated Press Financial Writer.

Announcement over the week end
of an offering of $100,0O0,o0O of 3
per cent Federal bonds, maturing in
194S, set some Treasury observers to
wondering whether it was sounding
out the capacity of the market to take
more long-term obligations.
The move followed closely the de-
feat of the Patman bonus bill, which
called for paying the veterans in nom
interest bearing Treasury notes. bet
ter known as "greenbacks."
In bond circles it was held Presi-
dent Roosevelt's stand against print
ing press money, by allaying imitation
fears, likely would have salutary
effect upon investment sentiment.
AS a matter of fact, moderate i'm
provement was recorded in the market
for high-grade bonds toward the end
upholding the Presidents veto Of the
bonus bill
The Treasury needs an avid bond
market, for 1t faces the task OF raising
the money for the $4,000, 100000 works
program.
Heretofore, with investors cautious,
the Government has met its deficit
mainly through sale of short-term
obligations. tapping the credit facili-
ties of big banks.
More than $4,000 100000 of the
Governments interest bearing debt
natures within the next five years.
Having completed most of its S.
000.000000 war loan refunding pro-
gram, the Treasury is considered by
many to be in a comfortable posi-
ton for its impending financial ope-
rationS.
But some bond men say the Gov
eminent probably will find 1t desir-
able to white down short-term debt
and convert 1t into longer dated is
sues as the market for such obliga-
tons improves.
