Food for Thought

Sober reflection on such actual
and prospective spending causes
one 10 gasp. II wasn't until
1917 that the federal govern
ment's total spending for an
entire year exceeded 81 .000.-
600. Our participation in the
World WA cost many billions
but not as much as Washington
is abpropriating and contemplate
ing spending.
The World War saddled Amer
lean taxpayers with peak
federal debt of close 10 SIS. 500. :
100000. The canny Calvin
Coolidge and the mastery Sec
Rotary Mellon persistently whit
tied down that total Finally.
our public debt was reduced 10
SIG, 1856, 900 600.
