In short. relief is permanent.
Most students Of Americas so
cial development recognize it as
an inevitable by-product Of an ex-
cessively efficient civilization. The
story is told in instance after in
stance of the doubling and treb-

in the last 10 years-a trend
which seemingly never ceases.
It is a cycle: A given number of

Round and round spins the
wheel. Distribution is the bottle
neck, with an unsatiSfied need on
one side and a surplus of goods
on the other, and no way to. get
them through.
Result: Relief.
A few years ago economists
thought a shorter workday and
work week would solve the prob
lem. It Is seen now that this is
only a partial solution. In some
respects 1t is no solution at all.
For as hours Of labor are short
ened, the cost Of labor rises. And
as labor costs rise, industries
with newspapers as an example
in which labor is the major item
in the cost Of production, find it
more and more difficult to sur

Figures from official sources
offer eloquent evidence on the mel
results In terms of human need
and dollarsand-cents outlay:
i. The census of unemployed
a year ago showed 5,821, ,035 per.
sons (4,163,769 male, 1,657,226
female) totally unemployed and
in search of work. At that time
about 100000 persons Zone
third Of the number unable to
find work in private industry
were employed on WPA work
projects. The number so en-
ployed now exceeds 100000,
with industrial output close to
the 1929 peak-the all-time high
in time Of peace.
2. WPA estimates place the
number Of households currently
assisted under Government en-
ployment and relief programs
at 6,231,000 and the number
Of persons aided at 1902. 900.
These are not cumulative totals.

It's shame TO find it necessary
to recall the simple lessons learned
in long ago arithmetic, but it's sur
prising how people have difficulty
with the simple, old problems of
addition, subtraction, multiplica-
tion and division. Well admit that
there are few hurdles and COM
plications thrown into this prob
lem, but it boils down to simple stuff
after you get the answer. There is a
certain number floating around in
the atmosphere; that's the thing
we're shooting at. If you deduct
8 from the quotient of that number
divided by and the result is 10,
what is the number?
