NOT BY OUR FIGURING

At least 4OO, 900 persons would have to be
dropped from the relief rolls, Messcr Harry Hop
kins told a House committee, if the relief appro-
priation was cut from the S1,500,O00000 recon-
mended by the president to $1,000 100000, as pro-
posed by economizers in congress. But what goes
on here? If it takes $500 600 to support 40O,-
600 WPAers, that means it takes $l,250 to sup
port one WPAer. Not in these parts it doesn't,
Mr. Hopkins not in these parts.
Knock off 10 per cent-no let's be liberal (and
realistic) and knock off % per cent for the job
holders and that leaves $937.50 to support one re-
lief worker for one year. BY the month, this comes
to $78 and few cents left over for a subscription
to WPA trade publications.
But WPA workers don't get anything like $7S a
month-not in these parts Mr.. Hopkins Far from
it, They draw $27 month, or about 1925 year.
Add administrative expenses, and it develops that
for 81, 900 900 900 WPA could take care of more
workers-by 3OO,OOO--than it is taking care of
right now. If, that is, they were paid on the North
Carolina wage scale.
Palpably, when the big Relief man warns con-
gress that cutting $500, 900 from his appropriation
will mean cutting off 100000 relief workers. he is
talking about relief workers in New York or Hi
noiS or Pennsylvania and not in North Carolina or
adjacent states For that matter, if he'd pay New
York and Illinois and Pennsylvania relief workers
what they're paid in North Carolina, the relief APP
preparation could be cut by whole billion dollars
and still there would be enough to 90 round

Business is better Unemployment has been re-
duced Wages are rising. The worst of the 'emer-
gency' is generally considered as over.
Yet the federal government is constantly spend
ing more for emergency" purposes!
That startling fact stands out in the official
treasury statement of April l.
During the first nine months of the current fiscal
year, as compared with the same period in the last
fiscal year, WPA expenditures were more than
100000, 900 greater.
Social security expenditures were more than
S3OOOOO,000 greater.
Resettlement Administration expenses were more
than $7O,OO0,oOO greater.
IVA expenditures were over $23,000,O0O
greater
Soil conservation spending was voer $2O3,0 OO,-
900 greater.
PWA loans and grants to states We're more than
S102, 100000 greater.
Regular departmental expenses were more than
S4,O0O,O0O greater.
So it goes down long list.
Is it any wonder that the national debt scars to

cerned and determinedly trying to remedy the con-
dition ?-Greenville Piedmont.

NEWSPAPERS OPINIONS
DANGER NOW IMPENDS

For four years the less-work-and-more-p doe
trne has been preached by the administration and
the idea nculcated that the government would see
that no one starved Billions of dollars have been
poured out i'm bonuses, subsidies and relief 1t was
inevitable that there should develop great mass
of voters who feel the government owes them a
living, who have been getting their living from the
government and consider the government pledged
to continue to provide the living.
1t was inevitable that this mass of voters should
become real political force in a country where
the suffrage is universal and unrestricted. 1t was
inevitable that they should have been the greatest
of the administrations political assets in the last
campaign 1t was natural that they should believe
the administration triumph insured a continuation
of government support and inevitable that they
should feel that retrenchment now is blow at
them and a betrayal And when one considers the
extent to which they were exploited in the last
campaign, three seems some ground for that feel
ing.
All of which means that in the the present drive
in which the president and administration leaders
are now engaged to restore the national sOlvcncy
and avert the threatened copase, they will need
every ounce of their strength and all the support
they can get And if their Republican critics and
too), who for four years have been assailing the
spending SPREE" possess trace of sincerity they
will intellectually help.
Not to do will be completely despicable. This
is no time to rant about the recklessness of the
past nor shout eve told you So The situation is
much too serious for partisan or fractional politics
1t is question of getting the nation back on solid
ground and reganng lost control of federal
finances. 1t is fight in which every citizen has
stake and if it is not at this session il is likely
to be lost altogether. That is why it is encourage
ing to find as loyal friend Of Mr.. Roosevelt as
Senator James f. ByrneS, of South Carolina, urg-
ing a cut in the relief load half billion deeper
than the president recommends The new spirit OF
manifested in congress in the last
month is the best sign in four years. The spenderS
were never in real majority. 1t was always a
coerced majority.-Frank Kent in Charleston News

EMPLOYMENT

March employment tops 1929 record with 49,
$4,000 at work, says the National Industrial Con-
ference Board.
The Bureau of Labor estimated that S,24l 900
have been re-employed since the low level of 1888
Yet S2,000,00O,O00 more will be spent for relief
in the present fiscal year than spent for unem-
ployment relief in 1884.
As many people are employed in private jobs as
in 1929, yet unemployment relief rolls are bigger
than ever!
Figure that one out and ask yourself why the
administration is ducking the issue of taking a
census to find out how many people are actually
unemployed, and remember there's national cleo
ton shortly!-Boake Carter in Shelby Star.

NisA ScrnIrr Stnn CnrrcSnnnhrnt

MA NcENsNt sum correspondence
WTASHINCTON-The field is
" wide open for speculation as
TO the ultimate compromise which
will end the controversy over the
Presidents Supreme Court plan.
Although no red-hot dope is
available for an accurate forecast,
it is possible TO outline the area
within which the game will be
played. That is to say, there are
certain compromises already sug-
e, ed from one side, and other
compromises likely to be Sug-
gested by the other.
From the opposition, the most
liberal compromise proposal
would permit Roosevelt to appoint
two new justices TO the court
rather than six. 1t is generally
believed here that if Roosevelt
would agree to an arrangement
giving him two, or even three APP
continents, his bill could pass by
= comfortable margin.
y
TT is also necessary 20 consider
the compromise proposal of
Senator Hatch OF New Mexico,
especially since Senator Burke of
NebraSka-an outstanding oppoSi-
ton leader-SayS the Judiciary
Committee is favorably impressed
by it. Hatch would permit the
President to appoint new justice
each calendar year as long as
there were justices over 20 who
failed to retire.
Although no whisper Of COM
promise has come from the adj
miniStration, logic compels the de-
duction that it plans to bring out
some proposal Of the sort.
The administrations logical
first step toward compromise,
considering its present frame of
mind, would be in the form of q
proposal for a sliding-Scale SUI
preme Court whose membership

regarding contentious women,
brawling women, and what it
would be better to do than to live
with such as they. He also left
valuable advice about good wo-
men, but, if you will notice. when
he talks Of good women as wives,
he always refers to them in the
singular. He does not hint that
because one Of a good thing is
good, more of the same thing is
better. \ nose apiece is highly
desirable but what about two or
a thousand noses?
And how Solomon does bawl
cut the fool! He employs much
space paying spicy compliments
to the fool. Probably he gained
close knowledge about the ways
Of the fool during his wide and
varied matrimonial experiences,
for it would be impossible for a
man to have Il thousand wives
without there being Il sprinkling
Of fools among them -- and if
there is any kind Of food that is
smoke in the eyes and salt in the
wound, it is the fool wife. She is
so close to her man that she can
get under his skin and stay there
until she runs him ragged. My,
what lively experiences Solomon
must have had getting that wis
dom for which he had so earnest
ly petitiOned.
And after he had been all
through the mill with his thou
sand wives, their spring bonncts,
their tcmpcramental upScts and
demands, Solomon summed up
life this way: "Vanity of vanities;
All is vanity"
Young man contemplating mat
rimony or already in il, heed the
words of King Solomon. Content
thyself with the wife of thy youth,

about wives, 1t should be a man

If you desire expert council

Solomon prayed to the Lord for

FOR SOCIAL OUTLOOK is
USELESS
lRv BRUCE CATION

IL Is an interesting little experiment that
the German NaziS have announced - this
business of forcing all high government
officials and cultural authorities to spend
two months each year as manual labOrerS.
The idea back of it is to bring the men
who make policy and mold opinion into
closer contact with the common people.
As General Hermann Goering remarks,
Those who want to lead the people must
never forget how the man of the people
feels."'
So a number of searched-colar Prus-
slams have already closed their desks and
gone out to get jobs in textile factories,
coal mines book shops and what-nOt. Two
months later they will be back at their
regular posts-full, no doubt, of deep
fellow-feeling for the man at the bottom
of the heap.
In theory, the idea is swell. In actual
practice, it probably will be pretty much
of a dud. For the one thing that erring
man cannot do, is to find out what it feels
like to live on lower rung of the ladder
by going slunming. Lifting yourself By the
boOtstraps is child'S play by comparison.
What is it that gets on the workers mind
and makes him dream of fairer and more
decent world, anyway? The mere fact that
ne has to work with his hands and earn
his living by the sweat of his brow? Not at
all. That has been humanity's common lot
ever since men came down out of the trees
l,,ol +L,n,,. toi IL, tn no
a man feels abused because he has to work
for his living
The real trouble is psychological-af feel
Ing Of helplessnesS, of insecurity, of being
adrift in a world where all of your best eff
forts, your fidelity and your industry may
not avail to save you. You may be frugal
and industrious beyond all measure; if a
depression, war, a decline in foreign
trade or some fools monkeying with the
currency closes the factory where you
work, you are out of luck and there is pre-
cious little you can do about it.
That is the sort of thing the man on top
can't get next to by mere process OF
working for two months on an assembly
line. That feeling of insecurity never will
put its icy fingers on his heart.
In the back of his mind must always be
the knowledg ethat he is in this only for q
little while He will return to security wher
his two months are up. Short rations are
no hardship when you know there is big
chicken dinner waiting for you little
later.
A sympathetic understanding of the
troubles of the man at the bottom is some
thing that can't be taught. Unless you have
come UP from the bottom yourself, or have
been born with the necessary breadth Of
imagination and sympathy, you dwell for
ever in another world. Summing partie:
may salve the conscience, but they near
