Rome, July 14.-(AP)-A ten point
Fascist doctrine of race, similar in

declaration said.
A group of Fascists university pro-

Raleigh, July 14.-(AP)-The Fed

North Carolina unfavorable condi-
tions, he said, "are competing with
the favorable prospects with the ma
ton at large" In spite of the fed
eral reduction in planting, the final
harvest nationally may exceed the ten
wear average for most crops, it ap-
peared."
Dealing with individual crops the
condition report set forth:
Tobacco planting seasons were I'M
usually favorable and despite the bad
weather in June, prospective produc-
ton is considerably above the 10
year average as whole. Tobacco
shows a 10 per cent larger production

By CHARLES p. STEWART
Central Press COlumniSt

Washington, July H. President
Roosevelt complains that governors
who brag of having balanced their
respective State budgets, while the
Federal government has been running
farther and farther into the red I'M
der his administration, do their
boasting with very poor grace, con-
sidering that they have accomplished
their balancing by supplying their To-
cal needs out of the Washington
treasury.
There is plenty of logic in this rea-
soning.
In the long run Federal deficit
goes back to the states anyway; the
citizenry of state, which temper
arily avoids spending some of its
own money by getting grants from
Uncle Sam, has to foot the bill thro-
ugh national taxation.
Obvious?
It is obvious.
If 48 men want to raise. among
them, a total of $48, but they have
on an average, only so cents apiece
it is clear that they cannot escape a
S24 deficit on the basis of Individual
contributions.
But suppose they say:
eve cannot do it that way, so we'll
make a collective levy on the whole
48 of u.s."
Does that make sense? Of course
not.
How 1t Works.
Nevertheless, each individual state
whenever there is a countrywide
pinch, invariably announces, through
it's congressional spokesman:
