Worried About Future

But the NAM is worried about
the future. 1t is worried about the
proposed 300-million-dollar annual
grants for education, the proposed
200 million for Stun clearance and
housing and the recommended in
crease Of some $50 million annually
in federal grants for expanded So
cial security programs.
They see by 1850 possible upper
cost of 54 billion as compared to
the one billion Of today. They main.
tain that the states can handle their
own slum clearance.

Then the federal government de-
cided that same road was of benefit
to the entire country since tourists
and truckers from other states used
it and 1t allowed grants to build
the road in national highway sys-
tenn spreading the tax base over
the whole country.
Federal grants to the states to-
day come from many departments
OF government which the local tax
payers pay back on the installment
plan in taxes from the department
of agriculture, the department Of
commerce, the interior. public
health, federal works, public hous-
ing, veterans administration, social
security and others, all for a total
OF approximately a billion and a
half dollars in 1913.
Otherwise the folks in the various
states would have done without
their improvements or services, or
they would have paid for them on
state or county basis instead Of
the grant being spread over a ma
tional base.

Your Home Town Reporter likens
the federal grant system to the
system Of installment buying. First
it spreads the tax base, and second
it permits the taxpayer to pay for
a project over a period of years.
And no organization has made the
American public more installment-
buying-conscious than has the NAM.
We would liken the federal govern
nent in this instance to a. great
finance company such as is op-
Grated by some members of NAM
to finance installment purchases
of autos, household gadgets, farm
equipment and most anything else
you want to buy.
For instance, the folks in Boone
county want to build a hospital.
They don't have all the money, but
they need the hospital now. Under
the prescribed conditions, they can
pay part of their own funds down,
get federal grant for the balance,
build their hospital and pay for it
over the years on the installrnent
plan in taxes.

The "Great Illusion"
IN WASHINGTON


VOUR Home Town Reporter has
l just read well-prepared and
documented booklet released by the
National Association of Manufac-
turers entitled 1.-The Great Illusion"
Its purport is to the effect that
federal grants of money to the
various states are an economic evil
and that the masses of the people
believe this source of money is in
exhaustible and that it is free.
Whether or not the system OF
federal grants is economically evil
of course depends upon your eco
nomic viewpoint. But this reporter
does not believe that the great mass
of American taxpayers thinks this
money is either inexhaustible or
free. They only have to consult
their tax receipts each year to de-
termine whether or not it is free,
for every dime the federal govern
ment spends must be obtained
from the people in taxes in some
form or another.

What hurts the NAM appar-
emily is the fact that IA states
under the federal grant system,
pay out relatively more money
than they receive. And it just
so happens that 1t is these
states which are the most popu-
lous and would pay in more
federal taxes, and are also the
richest states where the prop
critics Of the great majority Of

The states are New York,

A resolution urging Metho6ists
70 study arguments for and
against the North Atlantic Pact
was passed by the Baltimore An

hours over the issue
The debate came on O section of
report by q commission on
world peace submitted TO the $50
clerical and lay delegates attend
ing the is5th session Of the con-
ference at Western Maryland Col
iege.
A motion TO delete the entire
section was brought In by pro-
ponents Of the Atlantic Pact, who
charged the questions raised were
"slanted" and loaded" in favor
OF those opposing the pact.
Questions Raised In Report.
Some OF the questions In the
report were Would not q general
security pact. aimed at no par
ticular nation. be better than a
regioual pact. manifestly directed
against one nation and hence fur
ther dividing the world into two
armed camps WIN not resources
be diverted to armaments that
should aid economic recovery?
Judge Charles w. Woodward of
Rockville. Nd. told the delegates
These questions are framed to
put doubt into everybodys mind
about the North Atlantic Pact.
] am in favor Of striking out this
paragraph and substituting the
statement ID Methodist bishops
recently made"
Fourteen Methodist bishops
issued q statement on May Is
saying In part, We feel that
the influence OF the church
should always be on the side Of
every effort which seeks to re-
move animosities and to PIE
serve freedom. We, therefore,
support the Atlantic Pact with
the necessary controls for It's
promotion Of peace because, In
our opinion. it win help to ad-
vance and protect the ideals
for which our Nation poured
out life and treasure in two
world conflicts" !
Bishop Charles Wesley Flint
Of Washington was one of the
signers of the statement
Judge Woodward was supported
by the Rev. ]. Z. Kemp Horn of
Baltimore. who declared These
questions are loaded In favor of
all the negatives rather than the I
affirmative.
Substitute Paragraph Offered. |
The Rev. Orris @. Robinson,
pastor Of Calvary Methodist |
Church, Washington. asserted,
Il am bit amazed that the men
who spoke are afraid to have |
questions asked about the Allan /

Giannini Death Won't Halt
Transamerica Corp. Probe
by the Assoeiotsd Press


A Federal Reserve Board spokes-
man said yesterday the death OF
Banker A. P. Giannini will not
alter or interrupt the board S
monopoly proceedings against
Transamerica Corp.
The corporation Is the holding
company over the giant Bank of
America, of which Mr.. Giannini
was founder and chairman. Fed
eral Reserve is Investigating
whether its expansion policies
have tended to create a Western
banking monopoly.
The spokesman said hearings,
which have been in recess. will
be resumed soon before r. M.
Evans, a board governor. Trans
america has not yet opened its
defense.
There was speculation among
board officials, however, whether
Mr.. Giannini's death Friday In
San Mateo. Calf, would alter the
tactics of corporation counsel. The
defense is expected to open its at
tack with a motion to dismiss the
case.
