PUBLIC DEBT STAGGERING
This year, pump printing by
the administration will be used
again in another attempt to get
out of the current depression. This
will probably mean more taxes for
business, which will make it even
still harder for the business man to
keep his head above water. As
the fiscal year ends, here is the ad-
ministration's story in actual fig
ures:
Total Income ..... S $500, 100000
Total Outgo ...... $3.50, 100000
Deficit .......... 100000, 900
Public Debt ...... 40,500 ,000, 900
To fully appreciate these huge
expenditures, you must compare
them with the following figures of
1881:
Total Income ..... 5 3,190,O0O,OOO
Total Outgo $500. 3,671 ,000, 900
Deficit ........ 4S1 ,00O, 900
Public Debt $500. 16,81O,OOO, 900
By comparing these figures we
find that the Public Debt has been
increased $23, 100000, since
1881. In 1881, the total cost for
public works was 1878 100000. To-
day, the cost for public works is
S993, 100000, or three times as
much. This tremendous increase
in the national debt also means an
increase of 1854, 100000 in annual
interest payments.

194O LINGERIE SoOTH5 WAY FOR (0RSETS HUG THE WASTLNE
By ADELAIDE KERR AP Fashion Editor

The corset's 1940 comeback has left big mark on winter lingerie.
 All the new underpining for winter frocks has been designed to smooth and enhance the new sil- houette's small waist
 Since slips still top that list, they have had first consideration. Some have smoothly fitting brassiere tops 10 give the high rounded bustline, and elasticized satin center sections which cover the top of the new cor set and mould the midriff as smooth ly as though it had been ironed. Other slips are cut with smooth fitting inset center sections. None cf them is boned, but they all are designed to confirm fashions fore nest winter decree: Small waist line"
 More lingerie news appears in sheer culotte petticoats, which elim- mate panties from the wardrobe and one layer of fabric from the waist line They are nearly as long as a slip, made of very sheer crepe and cften as lace trimmed as grand mothers petticoats. They're gener- ally worn with a very sheer lace-ac- cented shirt. like the old-fashioned pre- war variety which is tucked in side the culotte petticoat That com bination came to life as something to wear under the laced corsets, which some women objected to wearing next their flesh Most wo- men, however, now prefer to set the shirt-culotte combination over their corsets.
 The black corset, which caused such a storm of controversy, has had further effect on winter lingerie styles, designers say, in influencing the making of sheer black lingerie to wear with it.
 The new nightdresses, which many smart women are already buying as Christmas gifts. empha- size the hand-span waist, too. Some of them are designed with inset midriff sections to mould the figure and full skirts breaking in a graceful sweep below them. Half of them have little jacket tol match, or a long sheer coat of the same color. Scores of others have long sleeves that give them an old fashioned look reminiscent of grand mothers day.
 There's lots of lace about and it has been used in new ways this year. Sometimes a wide inset band of it serves to effect that famous little waist; again it is inset in bod ices or used in brief sleeves to cap shoulders.
