The Skyland post. [volume] (West Jefferson, N.C.) 193?-1988, 1941-09-11
(By Stat Writer)

WASHINGTON, Sept. ia
bitter fight between those who
want, to spend new billions for
social reforms and those who
want to pare domestic expenses to
pay for defense, is being waged
in congress. It's outcome probably
will determine our policies in this
regard for the duration of the
war.
The move to cut down expenses
on non-defense items in the bud
get was started by the senate fl
nance committee Immediately fol-
lowing that committees approval
of he largest tax bill in the his
tory of our country. Impressed
with the proportion of tax money
which must 60 into non-defense
items, the committee approved an
amendment to the tax bill asking
for an immediate estimate from
the bureau of the budget on how
to effect savings UP to $4,000, OOO,-
900. 1t also approved asreselution
asking for committee Of both
houses of congress, the director
of the budget and the secretary
of the treasury to inquire into
methods of saving.
On the same day that these
moves to reduce governmental ex-
penditures were made, the spe-
cial committee investigating old
age insurance made a report urg-
ing that the government pay $50
a month to all unemployed peo-
pie over so years old and esti-
mated that this would cost from
three to four billion dollars an
nually. Senators Immediately
pointed out that if this recon-
mendation was carried out it
would require more funds than
the total tax bill which is expec-
ted to come to about $4,000, 000,-
600. Nevertheless, Senator Down
ey of California (home-state of
the Townsend plan) is offering
this proposal as an amendment to
the tax bill.
The members of the commit

delaying production and to figure
out how best to allocate supplies
to take care of the interests of
both defense industries and the
civilian population. Pres. Roose-
welt expects the new board to
speed production of arms for all
anti-Nazi nations and at the same
time to give due consideration of
keeping the home fires burning in
America. On the new board, be-
sides the vice president, are: Will
liam S. Knudsen, director general
of the Office of Production Man
agement; Sidney Hillman, OPM
associate director general; Harry
Hopkins, special assistant to the
President; Leon Henderson, fede-
raj price administrator; Secretary
of Navy Knox, and Secretary of
War Stimson.
The Skyland post. [volume] (West Jefferson, N.C.) 193?-1988, 1941-09-11

tee supporting the bill, in addi-
ton to Mr.. Downey, were Senator
Pepper of Florida and Senator
Thomas of Idaho.
Although this bill is apt to be
waved aside, it is indicative of the
thinking of part of the congress
which favors continuing to pour
billions into new social reforms
even though the government debt
is up to the SO billion mark. And
MANY congressman find it embar-
RAISING to oppose such measures
when they realize there are H.
100000 voters who would benefit
by it.

Byrd States View

Taking a more realistic attitude,
however, the finance committee is
insisting on government economy.
Explaining the stand of the COM
mittee, Senator Byrd said:
"The pending 1941 tax bill of
necessity imposes an additional
and egregious burden on perhaps
more taxpayers than ever before
reached by direct federal taxes.
This step now is absolutely
necessary in the teeth of the cur
rent defense emergency, but it is
shameful that there has been no
earnest, sincere effort to reduce
non-essential, non-defense expen-
ditures of the federal government.
Reductions made in these items
this year have been inconsequen-
tial, and probably will be wiped
out entirely when all the supple
mental deficiency appropriation
bills are passed.
1T is little short of outrageous
to impose the burden of this tax
bill upon the citizens of this coun-
try without at least a sincere at
! tempt to reduce federal expendi-
lures outside of essentially emer-
gency items"
Although the debate on the tax
bill is being conducted pretty
much along party lines, the Re-
publicans urging economy and the
Democrats defending New Deal
expenditures, it is expected that
some economies in a non-defense
spending will be forthcoming. The
debate on the tax bill is creating
more heated arguments even than
surrounded the famous lend-lease
bill. On the outcome of the tax
measure and its amendments, ou1
financial policy for the future
will be set.
Labor, Materials, PriOrities
AS a result of the appeals fol
unity in the address of Presiden'
Roosevelt and many national fig.
ures in the unions on Labor day
it is expected that labor prob
lens may be somewhat reduced
although the shipbuilding, avia
ton and automobile industrie!
- feel no assurance that there will
The Skyland post. [volume] (West Jefferson, N.C.) 193?-1988, 1941-09-11

not be new outbreaks to interfere
with their production schedules.
Many industrialists with big
government contracts are coming
to Washington with bags full of
statistics to show the government
they now are actually losing mo-
ney on defense production due to
increased cost of materials, short
ages of materials, increased labor
costs and expensive adjustments
in government specifications for
the defense items they are MAX
ing.
The newly appointed super pri-
critics board, headed by Vice
President Wallace, is expected to
look into all problems which are

Labor And Democracy

The president of of the principal labor unions
said this ITO make the gains that have been made
In the past our uniOn well all labor hold
the principles of democracy"
No quarrel with that statement 1t is unan-
swerabe truth But the unpleasant fact that labor
leaders have been about the worst and persistent
emies of democratic principles this country has known
1t is these leaders who want to make it impossible
any man to hold job and living unless he pays
to union 1t these leaders who often establish exorbtant
initiation fees to their mions-fees that far beyond
ability of the majority of workers to meet is these leaders
who have closed unions to Negro labor sad effect
that non-members cannot be employed and starve
far they concerned that pattern of labor
cracy.
You can't have labor monopoly, any kind of a
nopoy and also have democracy Many labor leaders
and farsghted But that proportion lead
ers which making racket out of unonism casts grow
ing stigma the entire trade union movement they
destroying democracy and Sitting Negro labor Labor
should practice democracy well preach it.
