Woodruff Differs

Rep Roy q. Woodruff CR) of
Michigan. a member of the ways
and means committee. asserted
that "the way the administration
is spending money it will take
more than 10 years, probably so
years to pay off the enormous
debt that is being piled up not
only by defense spending but by
nondefenSe spending for so-called
social gains
An estimate that 25 per cent of
the national income will be taken
in federal. state and local taxes
for years to come was made by
Representative Jenkins (R) of
Ohio, also a member of the ways
and means committee.
1.-THE outlook for the Ameri-
can taxpayer is dark and will
continue TO be dark until the
administration cuts useless nom

I'VE now have a public debt
of about $4,000. OOO. 900, and
before this defense spending is
ended, II may reach 100000
100000. The interest alone will
cost the taxpayers about $1,000
600 O00 a wear"

LONDON, May 1.-THE next
few crucial months will reveal
whether a quick victory over Hit
Ter is possible thus leaving the
warning nations still able TO re-
cover from their war wounds-or
whether the war will be dragged
out with consequent bankruptcy of
the belligerents.
This was the picture of the situ-
alton presented, largely for Ameri-
can attention. by an authorized
source in London today. His re-
capitulation of the crisis is this:
The Battle of the Atlantic Is
raging with the utmost fierceness,
but people are too prone to judge
the British shipping losses only on
the basis of the Atlantic struggle.
Intensive conveying of essential
ammunition supplies has meant a
considerable reduction of their
losses. but munitions are not Brit

WASHINGTON. May 17.-Ten

today.

Speaker Sam Rayburn expressed
the belief that the American peo-

Planes Effect

II is useless, he pointed eHt, "a
compare this wars strife in the
Atlantic with that of the last.
1t must he remembered that in
the World War, only 5000 tons OF
shipping were sunk by aircraft.
Now aircraft present a greater
menace than U-boatS.
In addition there is the newest
menace of mine fields sown from
the air.
Thus, he explained. British ship
ping losses are bound to be
greater now than they were even
in 1918. when the British mer-
chant marine, although protected
by 900 Allied destroyers, lost 1000
tons weekly.

Mediterranean, as well as Allan

in essential shipping space, and
less shipping space means a
smaller flow of necessary supplies
from America and the empire.
This authority said the percent

bound ships is uncomforta ably high,
while Sinkings of boats bringing in
airplanes from America also are
serious.
The spokesman did not call on
America to make a quick decision
