CITIES FACING
 RELIEF ISSUES
Expenses Here in March Nearly Doubles l037
 Expenditures


 While Waterbury's relief costs for the normal peak month of the year. March, this year amounted to almost twice the expense of March, 1897, 5000 as against $12,000, in round figures, respectively, New Haven's costs were $63,000; Hartford's, $62,- 900; and Bridgeport's, $57,000.
 By figures issued through the State Department of Welfare 1t is shown that the current depression has made the problem of relief such a serious complexity that more than one person in every ten now is re- ceiving aid of some kind. This cost if apportioned equally among the other approximate ne-tenths oi the states population would mean that every man, woman and chile would pay $2 plus month to pay the bill.
 The state deficit for Welfare costs has been variously estimated with most officials o fthe opinion that the figure will be in excess of $1 ,250.- 900. Governor Cross has conferred on the problem with design to re- vamping the states relief program but the outline of this move has not been fully developed.

factor. It is the key-log in the dur able goods log jam for people are not willing to invest in long-term bonds, the blood of the durable goods industry, while government spending beyond means exists.
 Reducing Expenditures
 "To increase taxes at this time in order to bring about economy is, of course, the hardest way to reach our objective. The objective could be reached by reducing expenditures but am convinced that it will not be reached until people are ex- penditure- conscious and the only way to make them conscious of these outlays is to put through a tax bill that will include every citi- zen who has an earning capacity of any kind whatsoever.
 Finally, may it be said the only fair thing that we can do. In the early days of our spending we were justified in these expenditures be- cause of the emergency. Insofar as our government expenditures im- proved the country, that is, through the creation of definite assets from our public works program, the bene- fits of which will be enjoyed by thi; and future generations, we were moi unfair to the future generations But the time has long since passed when we can continue these pro. grams unless we are willing to admi ll-.. decency and courage to meet ou own bills. The fact is that we ar spending our childrens' money a yet unearned by them. It is unfair uneconomic and undemocratic."

COP. COMMITTEE
 MEETING TODAY

Hartford, Conn.,, May 25-(UP)- The Republican state central com mittee met today to consider hold ing its state convention in mid-July rather than in September. The proposal was made by the young Republican organization to provide more time in which to present can- didates to the electorate, but the chances of approval appeared doubtful.
 Agreement of both Republican and Democratic registrars would be necessary to change the dates of caucus lists, it was said, entailing considerable expense in each dis trict. Unless members of the Dem- ocratic state central committee were present arrangements-the sugges- tion could not be realized. Repub- lican Chairman enjamin E. Har- wood endorsed the early convention as providing an opportunity to adopt "well-considered party plat form

FTCm whatever angle recovery is considered, you cannot escape the conclusion that the real barrier to sound recovery is continuing deficits and the mental attitude of our peo- pie with respect to spending" he said.
 Hands Out"
 "Nor can the problem be wholly placed at the door of the national administration. Witness the repre- SentativeS of states and cities and local business organizations journey ing to Washington every time an- other distribution appears to be scheduled It is inconsistent to constantly complain about deficits and then indirectly, through organ izations or local government off, cials, try to get appropriations to off, set curtailed expenditures of politi- cal subdivisions, or for a few new public works in various cities.
 "The nation is so spending con- scious that it seems taXation-con- sciousness is the only way we can return to the more thrifty practices of limiting our outgo to necessary expenditures.
 Say what we will about the pre- sent cost of taxes, until our taxes are levied on a basis that will balance our expenditures we will never the mature and deliberate judgment on expenditures that is needed" MT. Heimann pointed out.
 Perhaps it is very unpopular to suggest that what is needed is a tax bill that will definitely promise balanced budget. In the final analysis, however, it is the safest way to begin program of sound recovery. Such a tax bill would call for increased revenues but if these revenues were secured on an equit- able taxation basis, it is my opinion that our people would awaken to the dangers of our situation and return to the practice of thrift and saving"
 Consciousness
 Assume that tax rates were in- creased on a level basis and that the base of the taxation program were extended so as to include al- most everyone who earns, even though those earning small sums would only be subject to a small tax. You would at least accomplish a taX-consciousness that is unfortun- ately lacking at the present time.
 Secondly, tax bill designed to meet our total levies would insure balanced budget and a balanced budget would do more to lend aid and comfort to those who are still l practicing thrift than any other
