Your share of the huge $34, $780,
100000 government debt, is $500.
That sum marks the per capita indebss]
edness Of the nation and applies tqA
every man woman and child. Multiply
the number Of members Of your fam
lily by 800 and you will have the
amount Of the family obligation that
must be paid sometime, someway.:
The more you attempt to avoid this
tobliHtAn, Just so SURELY are you,
lpassing on to your children and their
children a greater obligation. AS this
huge debt increases the more imposs--s
tiblc 1t seems to liquidate it, II you
believe in this huge, reckless expen-
tliture, that has benefited the favored
few to the dteriment of the many,
then you should voice your approval
at the polls in November by giving
the New Dealers hand. !.
II hcwever, this mouwting debt, l
which must carry with through thet
years, increasing taxes and hardships
for you and thine, has begun to give
you the ''jitters'' with q realization,
of what it will mean in the long run.

why mfr. Roosevelt is so anxious to-

Strange bedfrllOws indeed
Senator Carter Glass Of Virginia,
rated AZ an outstanding authority on
financial affairs, give us keen in
sight on the flotation OF government
bonds. where the money comes from.
He tells Us that today more than 60
per cent of the banks deposits are
lin Government Bonds and il they
should fall rs much as 10 per cent
then 30 per cent of the banks of the
country would he forced to close. The
Government exercises control over
most of the banks i'm the United
States and therefore the banks are
obligated to invest in government Sc.
curities.
The Government without your con-
emf fakes your savings and then comes
around and requires you to dig up
more money to pay back with interest
what 1t had already borrowed. AS
long as this system prevails of finan-
cling our government, the bond mar
vet must remain strong
