thinks will whip Willard and has
developed defense that will make
him mighty poor target for Big

Tuffy will bring roofing section

population of Holtville will jam into

colorful battler.

There are two mad ones on the

Observations From
Washington
(By Congressman Harold Knutson)
Unemployment and Security

Unemployment and Security :
The other day the American
Federation Of Labor reported that
last month 12,184,OOO persons were
out of employment. OF this number
1t Is estimated that five million
are between the ages of 16 and "a,
which is a little over 40 per cent
of the total. Most Of these youths
have never had an opportunity to
work, due to the depression. con-
slider this by far the most serious
problem that we have to face.
They all want to work and they
must be provided with jobs or
many of them will inevitably use
other methods for gaining a liveli-
hood. AS see it, one Of the sol
utions lies in shorter hours; an
other remedy lies in liberalizing
our pension system so as to make
beneficiaries eligible for retire
ment at the age Of 90 and to fix
the amount of the pension at a
level that will enable them to do
with full security. In the consid-
Grafton of this important subject
we must not ignore the fact that
the future Of the Republic will be
seriously threatened If we fail to
do our part in what is a problem
of the first magnitude. Informa-
ton recently given out by the So
cial Security Board shows that in
some states the amount paid is
wholly inadequate as the following
fip1lres show.
The Sauk Centre herald. (Sauk Centre, Stearns County, Minn.) 1886-current, 1936-05-07

the executive branches Of the gov
eminent with view to determining
whether the activities of any such
agency conflict with or overlap
the activities of any other agency
and to ascertain If any such agen-
cies should be co-ordinated with
other agencies, or abolished or the
personnel thereof reduced. On
Wednesday Of last week the House
passed a similar resolution which
authorizes the Speaker to appoint
a select committee of five members
of the House to conduct such an
investigation. There is no question
but there there is a great deal CT
overlapping in the work of various
departments and bureaus, also that
the cost of government is much
greater than 1t should be. With a
national debt of thirty-five billion
dollars staring us in the face, with
the possibility that it will be forty
billions, which is forty dollars for
every minute since the dawn of the
Christian era, before the end Of an
other fiscal year it behooves Con-
gress to apply the brakes.
