NATIONAL AFFAIRS
By FRANK P. LITSCHERT

Recently exercises were held all
over the nation concentrating the
anniversary of the birth of Abraham
Lincoln. Some of the meetings were
political, but this fact is without
special significance 50 far as paying
tribute to the memory of the great
Emancipation is concerned. For Lin
coin is now revered by men and wo-
men of all political parties. 1t may
therefore be interesting to note that
Lincoln said:
Teach economy. It is one of the
first and highest virtues. 1t begins
with saving money"
*M*
The advice comes to us from the
great homely philosopher, yet in the
light of recent events it appears to
us today as the peak of philosophy in
the Horse and Buggy Age, and far too
many of us seem to regard it as outr
NODDED
The time was when economy was
taught in every home and at every
freside. Youngsters were made to be-
lieve that saving was one Of the first
principles leading to a successful ca
reer. They were led to believe the way
to get a "start in life" was to save
money, invest it carefully and pru-
IDENTIFY. Security, they were told, de-
pended on laying away something for
the inevitably rainy day and for COM
fort in old age. 1t was instilled in the
mind of every boy that he must first
of all depend on himself for the work
ing out of his own destiny. The man
who had his cellar stocked with fuel
and food at the beginning of the win
ter, and had lifted the mortgage from
his roof, was regarded as really sue
cessful in life.
But now all this seems to have
changed. We have entered new era.
The way to prosperity is now thru
the spending of money. The pump
must be primed. Waiting for the
workout out of the natural laws of
economy is too slow. 1t might easily
lose an election. In fact, it has lost
elections. A new automobile with a
shining colo1. and a half score of I'M
satisfied payments is more to be de-
sired than security for the winter. If
we spend lavishly and help prime the
pump while we are young the, gov
eminent will take care of us when we
get old. Society owes security to the
reckless and profligate even more than
to the careful and the saving In fact,
the latter can be made to pay the
bills for brothers who walk the prim-
rose path.
Unfortunately, those who rely on
the governments doing it, sometimes
fail to see that after all the govern
ment is nothing more nor less than the
peoplesof the nation. What the govern
ment promises to do the people must
do, and they cannot perform miracles
without real money which comes, not
from the printing presses, but from

the enemies of truth and goodness.
They made light of these statements,
because they did not know the mean
ing of life. They tried to turn Him
away from the thoughts of self-denial
and sacrifice, but he stood firmly: He
was convinced that He must face the
tragedy of the Cross. The greater joys
and satisfactions of life are not found
apart from pain and sorrow. So He
placed Himself alongside the toiling,
struggling multitudes, faced their bit
ter experiences and used no advantage
or power that is not available to us. 1t
will surely help us to use the Lenten
season to mediate on Jesus life of
loving service, of His willingness to do
Gods will, no matter how much pain
and grief must be endured.

the factory.
Sooner or later if the government
relief is called on to take the place of
old fashioned principles of economy
then the government is going to break
down, because it can stand no more
than its people can endure.

So it would seem time now to turn
back to the homely teachings about
economy and thrift. While we eXtoll
Lincoln for his great liberal principles
and his determination to save the
Union at all costs, let US remember it
is just as possible to destroy our coun-
try by the application of false econom-
ic doctrine as it is through armed re-
bellin.

ON AGAIN, OFF AGAIN

The President is very much con-
cerned about finding revenues to bal
ance any payments entailed by the
new farm bill which may be in eX-
cess Of what the old agricultural pro-
gram has been costing In his state
ment on Wednesday, when he signed
the bill, he declared that "parity pay
ments would increase the present au-
thorized cost, and in order to make
such payments it would be necessary
to provide additional revenue to fl
nance them" By this the President
meant that any extensions or addi-
lions to the farm program must be
financed by new taxes in order not to
disturb still further the already pre-
carious equilibrium of the Federal
finances.
This is SOUND doctrine The farm
program is far too costly even under
the most favorable conditions. Con-
gress ought not to make conditions
more unfavorable than they are by re-
curing any additional expenditures
for which funds are not provided by
taxation. But while insisting on this
sound principle in connection with the
farm bill, the President has chosen to
ignore it in connection with relief APP
preparations. On Thursday of last
week he sent to Congress a special
message requesting the appropriation
of a quarter of billion dollars for
work relief in addition to the sums
contemplated in the budget. This ex-
ira relief appropriation will, on the
basis of the Presidents own budget
estimates of last January, lift the def
icit for the current fiscal year to.
$1,38S, 100000. But Mr.. Roosevelt, who
seems to be aware of the danger of
extra spending in one quarter, seemed
to forget all about it when, he sent up
his proposals for additional relief
funds.
He did not even hint that this par
ticular quarter of a billion dollars
would throw his budget more out of
keller than it already was. In fact, he
did not by even the remotest sort of
hint recognize the existence of the
budget at all. He simply asked for the
money, and the House of Representa-
tives, conformable to the same os-
trich-like policy, passed the appropri-
alton without taking any detailed ac-
count of the damage it would do to the
budget. 1t may be argued that the
needs of the unemployed create an
emergency and that the nation cannot
stop to consider the budget when hu-
man beings are in want. 1t may also
be argued that the country cannot
frey the cost of work relief. Without
any way disparaging these argu-
ments-and something is to be said
for them-it still seems in order to
inquire by what sort Of logic it is pos
sible to justify fiscal policy which
harps on the danger of disturbing the
budget at one point while conveniently
ignoring that danger at another
point.
We can never hope to reestablish
our national finances on a sound and
systematic basis by reference to such
flexible principles. A rub Der fiscal pol
icy is as futile as rubber dollar. is
dangerous, and the sooner the Adj
ministration and Congress finds this
out, the DECENTRALIZATION Sun.
