NEW YORK, October Ogden L.
Mills, former Secretary of the Treas
ury, asserted last night the Govern
ment had lost control over the spend
ing machine it has created" while
Senator j. w. Bailey, North Carolina
Democrat, claimed Roosevelt policies
had broken the depression.
Both spoke before the Life Under
writer's Association of the City OF
New York.
Mills asserted the administration
doesn't want to stop spending or
doesn't know how. My own opinion
is that it has neither the will nor the
ability"
Bailey, saying that under New Deal
policies "tfe dark clouds of the terri
flying storm are rolling away before

ing those policies. with no apologies to

tor added, he would be greeted by 10

Dealers who will be happy to play

knock Knox. the distinguished insur-
ance company knocker."
After describing life insurance as
zone of the most popular and wide
spread forms of saving" Mills de-
clared the would-be saver was under
"a terrific handicap" with Federal,
State and local taxes taking almost
20 per cent of the national income.
1--WE are told" he said, that the
high cost of government is due to
relief needs. But this does not ac-
count for an increase of several hum
dred million dollars in the ordinary
routine expenditures Of the long-es-
tablished departments of government.
"Nor does 1t explain why the more
business conditions improve, and the
greater the employment, the more the
Federal Government finds 1t necessary
to spend on so-called relief and recov-
cry -.
