More Than $2OO,0OO,OO0
DisburSed

The National War Fund has dis
bursed more than $20O,OO0,OOO to its
war-related member agencies since it's
creation in 1943, according to a re-
port today to Mr. VIM. P. Griesmer,
a member of the War Chest Executive
Committee. The payment which car
ries disbursements over $200,000,000
was made to United China Relief for
relief materials which are now being
flown into China.
The national War Fund and its
member agencies is supported in part
by contributions to the Hamilton and
Butler County Community War Chest.
The report received by Mr.. Cries
mer also stated the National War
Fund has made an additional appro-
priation of $2,800,000 to the USO for
the quarter ending September 80. This
appropriation has been made neces-
sary by the great increase Of USO-
Camp Shows overseas since We Day
and because of heavier demands made
on USO clubs in this country as men
return from Europe for retraining
and redevelopment Total appropria-
tions by the National War Fund to
USO for the current year have now
reached $58,8O0,000.

in sales. 1t cost farmers billions in
income and corporations billions in
profit. The cost of the depression was
actually greater than the war debt.
The full employment bill, of which
l am happy to be one of the sponsors,
is not bill to provide only industrial
jobs. It is a bill to prevent business
depression.
It rests upon the firm basis of fact
that the best market for the business
men of America is to be found among
the people at the bottom of the eco
nomic scale
The total income OF the people who
in 1914 received less than $4,000 year
was three times greater than the
total income of everybody who receiv-
ed $4,000 year or more. There were
more than 32,00O,O00 persons receiv-
ing less than $4,000 year and only
$4,000 receiving more than $4,000.
Obviously the 100000, if they are
steadily employed, can buy more food,
more clothing, even more luxuries
than those at the top of the economic
scale. For the 100000 at the bot
tom have total income vastly great
er than the total income of those at
the top
The economic history of the country
proves that every war has been fol-
lowed by a depression. The full en-
| ployment bill is bill to prevent a de-
preston after this war.
Industry acting alone has never in
the past been able to prevent depres-
sions. Government must now assume
the responsibility, not by regimenting
the people but by coordinating all eco
nomic activity SO that opportunities
for employment shall be extended to
every person capable and will to
work.
