men like Senator Byrd, Of Virginia,
called attention to the danger and
tried to resist. But they were power
less against the appetites to which
the spending policies appealed and
against the politicians, from Presi-
dent down, who had found a formula
for political success through the use
of public instead of private funds.
Never was this as graphically eX-
pressed as by the late Harry Hop
kins in his famous utterance-"W
are going to tax, tax, tax, spend,
spend, spend, elect, elect, elect"
That told the story cynically but
with complete truth. After seventeen
years, the result is a stupendous
Federal machine manned by more
than 100000 payroll employees and
an enormously expanded system of
subsidies, pensions and handouts. Al
most unbelievable waste, inefficiency
and corruption have ensued All eff
forts to stem the tide have proved
futile. Even now when we must spend
many billions for defense, there has
been no Administration move to cur
tail nondefense expenditures, though
it has been shown that $7,000,000, 900
a year could be saved without Grip
ping the defense program or any
vital governmental agency.
AS of today the Federal debt and
deficit have become unmanageable;
Federal finances are out of control
and the President has made it clear
there will be no abandonment of New
Deal-Fair Deal spending policies if
the Democrats continue in power.
This declaration has surprised no one,

THE GREAT
GAME OF
POLITICS

Waste

The really awful thing in this gov
eminent is waste. 1t continues the
greatest of all threats to the health
and permanency of the Republic-to
the well being of its citizens. Nothing
else is so hard to contend with, so
demoralizing and ruinous.
Nothing else compares with waste
in sheer deadliness. Waste, unchecked
and unrestrained, breeds inefficiency,
hypocrisy, lying, thieving, general
corruption. All these are the inev-
table accompaniment of waste.
Waste in public affairs is the easiest
thing to start, the hardest to end.
This nation is now afflicted with gov
ernmental waste-and its accompani-
ments-of unparalleled size and extent.
1t is impossible to exagg era t e
present-day waste. 1t permeates the
whole governmental structure. No de-
partment, division or administrative
agency is free from it.
Some waste, of course, is INSOFAR
able from our form of government
and our kind of politics but nothing
approaching the waste of today was
ever dreamed of in this or any other
country Many thoughtful men be-
lieve the door to unrestrained waste
was really opened when universal, I'M
restricted suffrage became a fact. In
a nation as vast as this that, of
course, diminishcs the weight of the
intelligent voters and vastly en-
hances that of the uniformed and
unintelligent whose votes are in
fluenced solely by emotion ard prcju-
dice. But, most will agree that the
real start of the present period of I'M
checked waste began in 1933-34 when
the New Deal spending policies were
launched and the great rush began to
get on the Federal pay rolls.
At that time an astutc and exceed
ingly clearheaded man-now dead
who knew both politics and history
said; eve have started something in
this country we cannot stop" These
were prophetic words, indeed. Steadi-
ly, the army of jobholders has in
creased, the Treasury spigots have
opened wider and wider, the number
of those receiving Federal funds has
multiplied and the orgy of waste be-
gan. Today one in every 26 persons
is receiving relief in some form
and this in period of high prosper
ity and full employment. Years ago

Three Join Air Force

Three youths enlisted in the U. S.
air force for four years, unassigned,
as privates durinc the past week at
the Martinsburg headquarters.
Those enlisting were Elwoo 4
Charles Bowser, 10, son of Mr.. and
Mrs. Charles r. Bowser, Accident;
Hobert Luther Bowser, 10, son of
Mr.. and Mrs. Luther Bowser, Acct
dent; and Reed Eugene Friend, 20,
son of Mr.. and Mrs. Stanton Friend,
Friendsville.
The three were forwarded from
Martinsburg to Sampson air force
base, Geneva, N. Y, for basic train
ing. None had previous military SER
vice.
Pvt. Elwood Bowser was graduated
from Accident High in 1919. He was
on the soccer team for four years and
a member of Future Farmers of
America. He was employed as a
garage attendant in Accident prior
to enlistment
INI- IlODcIJ DONSci dlSO was
graduated from Accident High in
1919, played soccer, basketball and
baseball, was president of the FLA.
and vice-presdent of the senior class
He was employed as construction
worker prior to enlistment.
Pvt. Friend was graduated from
Friendsville High in 1913, being an
honor student, secretary Of the senior
class and a member of the soccer
team. He was engaged in farming
with his father prior to enlistment.
M/Sgt. George F. Kirby, Oakland
recruiter, was informed that the dead
line Of selective service inductees who
have had their pre-induction physical
to enlist, had been extended until De-
cember 81. The January call, he said
would include married men without
children from age % to 1917 years.
Men ordered to report in the Janu-
airy draft group for physicals must
enlist before December 81, he said, if
they desire voluntary enlistment in
service.

it being clear that the great voting
groups upon which the Administra-
tion depends hinge their support on
these policies. That astute statesman
was right. There simply is no stop
ping for the Democratic party as now
constituted. 1t has to go to the end.
Few men capable of detached judg-
ment think the inevitable collapse can
be averted another four years-if the
tax, spend, elect formula is again sue
cessful. That is why so many thought
full Democrats feel the only hope for
national safety is in a change
In the South. almost as much as
the Truman civil-rights program, this
waste situation is the cause Of the in
creased opposition to him. Certainly,
it is the reason so many Democrats
echo Senator Byrd's feeling that if
we are to escape a great national
disaster "the first essential is to get
rid of Mr.. Truman" 1t would be UNI
fair to place all the blame on Mr.
Truman. Succeeding to the presidency
in 1915, he was forced to adopt and
promote the New Deal policies Of his
predecessor, which were based on
waste. 1t would have taken a man of
heroic mold to call a halt and re-
verse the direction. Mr.. Truman, an
old machine Democrat, part of the
unsavory Kansas City organization,
is not of heroic mold. For him, there
was no way to go except on. 1t should
be clear to any reasonable person, not
in some way linked with the Admins
tration, that four more years of GO
ing on will complete our national in
solvency.
