WORKING FOR UNCLE SAM

It is a little difficult to realize that
near $50 thousand persons are EN-
ployed in the executive branch of the
United States Government II keeps
on going on and up, as shown by the
U. S. Civil Service reports which in
dicate an increase in one recent
month of 4.75S persons. The payroll
for that month was S141 $40. .976.
which was nearly three million dol
lars more than in July.
In the breakdown the number of
employees in the District of Column
bia total 124.610. or about one out
of every of the entire population in
Washington and those parts of Mary
land and Virginia that are now be-
ing called Greater Washington"
with a population of between 500 and
700 thousand persons.

ployees in the country as a whole.

The Civil Service reported that on
June 30, 1882. that there were 527,-
517 Government employees in the
United States of which $3.50 were
in the District of Columbia. When
Hoover went out of Office the total
number of Government employees
were less than 600 thousand.

100000 BUREAUCRATS

As the New York Times observes
Though we have got used to the
spectacle of enormous government
spending and to some remarkable
comparisons as a result, it is none
the less rather startling to learn
that on June 80, last. there were
920.St0 civil employees on the Fed
eral government payroll-2.550
more even than at the World War
peak of November IL. 1918"
This is one more reason why about
rs cents out of every dollar we earn
goes directly or indirectly into the
Unsuitable nav of government Our
entrance into the World War caused
the number of government workers
entirely aside from those in the
military forces-to be doubled. BY
1923. the number of employees had
dropped almost to the pre-war level.
Then a slow rise set in. which be-
came a fast rise in 1888. There were
$4,000 government tax-eaters in
1932-and 719.400 in 1885. And where
S24.259 workers lived at the expense
of the rest of us in 1886. some 92O.-
oAV cot at a tdA-SuppOil lcu tdDlc lo-
day.
Most startling of all is the fact
that the number of government
workers seems to increase regard
less of changes for the better in bus
mess conditions. The year 1882 and
1888, going by all the statistics, were
the worst of depression. But more
than 100000 additional people were
employed by the government in
1887, when a comparatively high
level of industrial production was
reached. and the national income
was substantially greater.
AS the New York Times also says.
THE increase in Government EN-
ployees is in some respects even
more impressive evidence than total
of the relentless
growth of Government functions and

APPLES TO THE FORE

An apple a day may not always
keep the doctor away-but it is a
certainty that apples are among the
most delectable and healthful oi
fruits. And this year, due to the
organized efforts of growers and
mass distributors. the consuming
public is going to be treated to high
quality apples at very reasonable
prices.
The National Apple Institute
meeting last August, approved a
plan whereby low-grade fruit will be
held off the market so far as posi-
ible; the choicest fruit will be NOV
ed into consumption at the begin
ming of the season; plenty of first
class fruit will be always available,
and valuable information concerning
the various varieties of apples and
their best uses will be widely dis
seminated.
However. as any producer knows,
just putting a good product on the
market in the normal way of busi-
ness doesn't necessarily assure sat
isfaCtory sales. And the apple pro-
ducers today face a very serious
marketing problem. The 1889 COM
mercial crop will reach some 103,-
100000 bushels, as against a 192S-37
average of 96000,000. Increased for
eign production. plus the chaotic
conditions created in Europe by war,
have complicated the export situa-
ton. As a result. the producers
realized that extraordinary sales
stimulus was necessary of they were
to move the crop.
AS in past apple crises, they con-
suited with the organized chain
stores Of the nation. Upshot is a
nationwide apple sale, to take place
during three periods-October 26 to
November 4, December Z to 16 and
February to TO- During those per-
iods. the thousands of cooperating
stores will feature apples, advertise
apples. talk apple8-and, going by
past precedent. sell apples on tre-
mendous scale.
What this means to the producers
of major farm crop is obvious.
They are scattered throughout the
country. and the welfare of many
communities depends upon their find
ing a good market for their fine
crops. And il means much to the
consuming public as we'll. which gets
the best of fruit at reasonable prices
A produceT-cohsumer campaign such
as this marks one of those happy
events from which all concerned
benefit.
