Roosevelt Budget
Wholly Wiped Our

WASHINGTON. Jan. IA UP
Congress and the courts will leave
Just enough of President Rooseyelt's 5
budget undemoiShed to mark the
spot where il stood before the eX-
plosives began.
Mr.. Roosevelt may as well prepare
a new budget for the 1887 fiscal
year which begins next July l. Il
is too late now to do anything about
the current fiscal year.
The supreme court is diminishing
federal revenue by invalidating New
Deal laws. Congress hortly will in
crease expenditures by voting i'm
mediate payment OF the soldiers
bonus. Mr.. Roosevelt did not bud
get for either OF those contingencies.
It is a quibble TO argue that the
senate compromise bonus plan does
more than soften the shock TO the
treasury. The house voted unadorn-
ed cash payment. The senate IS
ready to vote the same thing with
a provision calculated. to persuade
some veterans - perhaps half af
them-to delay collection until l945.
Substitutes Bonds
Neither house nor senate shows
any disposition to say how the bonus
payment money is to be raised. The
senate plan substitutes $50 bonds for
the house bill to pay by treasury
check. But any veteran would be
Imperial Valley press., 1936-01-14

able to take his bonds to the nearest
post office and get cash. The post
office, in turn. would get the cash
from the treasury. The question IS
where the treasury will find the
money.
However, the money is raised, Mr..
RooSevelt's week-old budget is as
dead today as the budget of 1876 It
depends on so many unknown guam
titles that it has ceased to mean
anything. One unknown quantity
is the work relief appropriations for
next year. There is, for instance,
the Jan. 6 budget estimate that the
national debt would be $30,933, 900, :
900 when this fiscal year ends June
80. The facts are these:
The national debt will go up by As
many millions of dollars as there are
millions worth of bonds issued to
veterans-S2, S2,000.00000 or more. If
half of the veterans cash their bonds
Immediately the debt will be reduced
by about 81 000,000,000 by the process
of paying that sum through post
office windows and retiring the
bonds. The question for Mr.. Roose-
velt to decide is where that money
is TO be had-from the treasury'S fat
working balance, from the $1,000
100000 stabilization fund, from the
new taxes or borrowing.
Estimated AAA Income
Furthermore, Mr. Roosevelt had
estimated AAA income this fiscal
year at S529,000,000 of which only
$50, 100000 had been collected as of
Nov. 30. None of the currently out
standing balance will be paid into
the treasury.
For next year Mr.. Roosevelt eSti-
mated AAA revenue at S547 ,000,0
None of that will materialize. Most
of it would have gone for AAA ben
eft payments but any residue might
have been available for general eX-
penditures toward balancing the
federal budget.
Professors undoubtedly will sue to
regain the Sl,000000,000 or so of
AAA taxes paid without protest.
This sum has been distributed to
farmers who spent much of it for
automobiles, farm equipment and
retail store merchandise. The out
come OF those suits is uncertain.

of its collection does not indicate
that any of it is necessarily of un-

Sudden Revival
With the sudden revival of

the summer and fall investigators
were instructed to collect data on

done and the committee is now
prepared to conduct hearings on
the $200-a-month pension proposal
whenever such a course might be
decided upon.
Senators have recalled the del

Sixty four Workmen have been as

Chan Livingston Of the Federal Re-

Workers are assigned through the

Twenty of the 50 men reported for

Great numbers of transients con-

ELECTRIFICATION
WILL BENEFIT ALL
FARM DISTRICTS

Valley rancherS who wish the
benefits of rural electrification will
be interested in what has been done
in the matter of bringing electricity
to farmers in the San Fernando
Valley during the past few years.
According to a bulletin on file at
irrigation district headquarters, the
bureau of power and light of Los
Angeles serves the rural and small
urban users in the San Fernando
Valley at city rates. The area cov-
cred comprises 10000 acres, large
ly composed of farms from two to
100 acres in size along with rural
towns and small industries. There
are now about 10000 farmers, in
Guiding subsistence farmers, receiv-
ing this service and practically every
home is electrified.
The average monthly bills paid by
these farmers for power service are
less than one-half the price former
ly charged by the private company,
the bulletin states, and the present
domestic combination rate schedule
both for the city and farm service
is: first IS kwhs., 4.8c; next lao
kWhs., Csc; all in excess of IT'S
kwhs., 1.5c per XVIII.
Members of the Imperial irriga-
ton district board of directors show
ed great interest in this bulletin as
it connects itself so closely with the
rural electrification plans of the dis
trlct. In a statement issued by the
board 1t is stated that with All AM
erlcan canal power distribution re-
tanned entirely by the district the
ranchers Of the district will be given
the same advantages as farmers liv-
ing in the San Fernando Valley as
to low power rates for the electrifi-
cation of their homes and ranches.

i
that can look terrible in training
and come up to his fight tuned
like a steel guitar.
Quite a Different Type
On the other hand, and in the
opposite corner, tonight we have
phlegmatic Joe Louis. uneXcitable,
unruffled - almost with Indian
StoiciSm.
The boy has had % professional
fights. TWenty-Seven of them he
has won, mostly in short order.
Thus we have definite form and
youth against a crazy-quilt an
tique design that has, in his time,
flashed brilliant as a meteor, only
to tail away into an uneXciting
ember.
Louis has been trained differ
emily for this fight than for any
of his efforts of the past two
years. They say he was lethargic
in his workouts ahead of the
Schmeling fight, but that hardly
sounds like old Trainer John
Blackburn, colored ring veteran
who knows that anything can
happen, and often does.
Alert to Occasion
Old John isn't the kind to let
his fighter look on any foe as
puShover. However, for tonight'S
offering, extra special precaution
has been taken to keep Joseph
Barrow keyed up to the situation.
One of these measures has been
to curtail his sleep. Joe, since the
days when he ceased to be fight
ing for his very victualS, had de-
veloped great penchant for sleep.
Fourteen hours out of "a was COM
mon for him.
His sleeping rations recently
have been cut to 10 hours, and
more latterly the amount Shake
Speare allotted to mankind, in
order to make him more alert and
sensitive to the business at hand.
Louis, who, until he went nearly
IL rounds with Schmeling, had
never fought more than 10 rounds,
and mostly two, four and six
round knockoutS, has planned
short fight.
He realizes that it is poison to
let an experienced fighter. par
tlcularly a boxer, stick around.
That he expects to make short
work of Sharkey is seen by his
closing days of Sparring when he
Embossed all the left jolts he had
to bang his ring partners to every
section of the ring.
If Louis hopes to win, however,
it appears he must dispose of
Sharkey quickly as he did Camera,
Baer and Uzcudun. Joe'S chances
will become simmer as the min
uteS tick by. Even at thirty-four,
or thirty-five, Sharkey shouldn't
be pleasant company if his visit is
protracted.
