FRIDAY, NOVEMBER Is, 1916

WHEN CALVIN COOLIDGE was President
most of the cutting was in the National Capital.
of the United States of America he cut down the
National debt many of billions of dollars. And
Every six months he called all the chiefs OF the
Government together and demanded that they cut
down expenses At one of the sessions he declared:
'Pd rather have you save penny than talk about
saving a dollar and fail TO it." He told the
London government that it should not expect any
money from the United States and he asked all the
Nations that owed the United States account
of World War to please remit He went further
than that when he cut down the increase OF the
number of Government employees, and insisted that
those who had Government jobs should earn their
salaries
Today we are all spending money like drunken
sailors We are SO soft that Russia still believes
that she will be able to tap till for few billions
In our international relations we are talking
about every subject in the universe except economy
Russia thinks ought to pay one-half the expenses
of the United Nations, and talk about one
quarter of the costs. Meantime Russia is trying to
destroy the United Nations.
We need more economy and the way to start 1t
is along the lines advocated by Senator Byrd OF
Virginia. His plan let two or three million
idle politicians out of the Government and give them
chance to go home and earn honest living.

AFTER THE FIRST WORLD WAR the public
debt of the United States approximately 25 bill
lion dollars and it was reduced less than 20 billion
by 1882 1t was nearly so billion in 194l, during
peaceful" New Deal days. And now, are so
heavily involved that nobody tell whether the
public debt is 500 billion, really 400 billion.
STILL on the day after election, top Republican leaders
were telling the peop that they would reduce taxes
10 to per cent.
The total receipts of the Government for the
fiscal year 194S $47,759,S24,559. Taxes, sale
of bonds, and borrowings accounted for that total
And still the Truman Administration has been vast
ing and squandering millions and billions.
And what do you know! The Democratic plat
form of 1882 carried this promise to the American
people: 1--WE oppose cancellation of the debts owe(
to the United States by foreign nations"
For more than a dozen years Government
has been pouring billions of dollars down the chutes
and those billions have been scooped up by foreg'
nations, who have been advised that lend lease
was merely synonym for gifts. Meanwhile tn
public debt has grown like Jacks bean-stalk.
Now, Republican victory hastens demand TO
investigations of all kinds. How about those terr
ibe expenditures, loans, gifts, and contrac
frauds The guns are being loaded right now, AM
the next Congress will probably blow the lid off o
many smouldering scandals 1t certainly is the tim
to find the answers to the question: ''How in tn
