cation ditch at 6 pm. on Sunday
and a crew Of ten men was kept
busy for over "a hours with pitch
forks taking Russian thistles out
of the ditch. While on the subject Of
thistles, let's burn them instead Of
pitching them over the fence for
someone else to burn. Men are still
patrolling the ditch to keep it clear,
and this has all entailed quite an
expense for the district which might
be partly eliminated II we would
all take care Of our own pests and
not leave 1t for the next man.

SIX LONG, TROUBLED YEARS


prove that S625 will. be the share
-of this great national mortgage
by every active worker. And
year by year part of this viii have
to come out of his wages in hid
den taxes. 1t won't be deducted
on pay day-oh, no. But when
he buys a suit of clothes, dozen
eggs, a pair of shoes, regardless
of the nature of the purchases,
a certain amout will be added 70
the price TO help pay the princi-
pal and interest on this twenty
five-billion-dollar debt.
And all this is due to the reck-
less spending of what a number
of our well balanced economic
experts refer to as crackpot rea-
soning.
Why, one would think that
even a schoolboy would know
that if he attacks the source of
his food and comforts of life, ul-
timately he might be denied
them, and even a dog does not
bite the hand that feeds it,
There is an old slogan that ap-
pears in a well worn fable. II
refers to killing the goose that
lays the golden eggs, and il seems
to many hardheaded business
men that this administration has
been busy with every possible
means within its power to accom-
plish that objective-to kill the
goose that lays the golden eggs"
The miraculous commercial
prosperity of this country is GER
tainly not due to an accident.
Our particular location has but
little to 90 with our achieve
ments, beyond supplying us
with fertile land and rich min
eral and other natural resources,
and the one factor that is valued
by every citizen more than any
thing else security has
been largely dissipated.
While the workers are saving
to buy home or to insure their
children reasonable dependence,
the Washington government has
been mortgaging these values,
whatever they may be. Silently,
secretly, the administration is un-
dermining the lifetime savings OF
every frugal citizen, every home
owner in this country.
Twenty-Five billion dollarsII
1t makes you Shudder when
you realize the stupendous char
acter of this vast sum that must
be paid, mostly by the active
workers of this country S625
for each one at some time in
the future.

SPORTS SHORTS

Gabby Hartnett, who is sup
posed to be the manager of the
Chicago Cubs, never knew waiv-
ers had been asked on Bill Verb
er until Cincinnati Reds bought
him. With Gehrig slowed down
to a walk, Gomez suffering from
a sore arm and Terrell not sure
his operation is a success, the
YankS don't look so invincible at
the moment. In the current is
sue of Liberty magazine, Grover
Alexander admits he had a sore
arm for 20 years, but took his
regular turn in the box, anyway.
He calls modern pitchers sis
sies", who run to the doctor at
the clubs expense everytime the
old soupbone hurts. Walter
Johnson, Dazzy Vance and Pen
mock will agree with Alex. Bill
McKechnie, manager of the Cincy
Reds, has had all kinds of ex-
perience in baseball. He won the
only worlds series for Pitts
burgh in 1925, then 10 years lat
er managed the Boston Bees and
they lost lis games in a season.
With Cincinnati Reds last year,
he made them threat to the
first DIVISION clubs and has a
good chance to win this year. A
win by Lou Nova, who is nearer
heavyweight title bout than
any college boxer has ever been,
over Make Baer should give him
title shot at Joe Louis in the
Fall. Fistic records fail to re-
veal a single collegian ever to
fight for the heavyweight cham
pionship. Nova was a track star
at Sacramento Junior College. i.
Matte Brown says Galento will
be easy victim for Joe Louis, and
he also thinks that Joe can not
knock out Galento. Joe Viii
liams claims the Cincinnati Reds
have been overrated and he be-
lieves they had an exceptionally
good season last year. lombard,
Mccormick, Derringer have good
records and they can not beat
them this year, he says, and if
they come close this season to
last years records they viii be
doing good. They won only 80
games in '38.

1t is indeed a pitiably sad COM
mentary that it has taken the Of
ficials of the present administra-
ton six years i. six long years
. to find out the disastrous ma
ture of their continued attacks on
business.
Perhaps we should be thankful
that at last they have made this
discovery.
Business is the source of the
extraordinary wealth that this
country has accumulated. 1t is
the source of the prosperity about
which we often have cause to
proudly boast. But year after
year, for six long years, business
has had to struggle with many
foolish restrictions created by
government officials who often
seem resentful of successful
achievements in almost every
commercial enterprise.
Some of the workers in the
past have applauded these mis-
guided efforts, but some of those
who have taken the trouble to
analyze the situation have found
it desirable to change their ap-
plause to bitter resentment, for
through this disastrous policy ten
million or more of our good citi-
zens have been compelled to ac-
cept the. dole or governmental
charity jobs, and a colossal in
debtedness has been incurred
which the workers will have to
pay, unless those who invested in
government bonds are compelled
to assume the loss through ma
tional bankruptcy.
And do not acquire the idea
for a minute that the men with
great wealth will have to assume
the brunt of this catastrophe. 1t
will have to be borne mostly by
every one who owns government
bonds, insurance policies, or val
ues of any kind In fact, real
estate will be the only exception.
Every insurance company is load
ed down with government securi-
ties, and when the government is
unable to pay its bills, these Sc
curities become worthless.
Annuities, insurance policies,
and insurance guarantees cannot
be fulfilled.
More than twenty-five billion
dollars that mas been the
breath-taking cost of the New
Deal government that is the
additional Indebtedness which
has been incurred by the reck-
leSSneSS of New Deal officials.
Now, suppose we divide that
Indebtedness among the forty
million workers for ultimate
ly they viii have to pay nearly
all of it. A little figuring viii
