Pe’ats, DeficiHs—
Ansi Dangers
_By RAYMOND PITCAIRN —
For the ninth time in succession the
Government of the United States has
closed its fiscal year with a staggering
deficit.
During the twelve months ending
June 30, the difference between income
and outgo—between what Washington
collected and what Washington spent—
was more than THREE BILLION
DOLLARS.
And, meanwhile, the National Debt—
which some day must be paid out of
taxes collected from the people’s rat-
ings—has mounted to more than FORTY
BILLION DOLLARS.
How long this practice of piling up
debts and deficits will continue is any-
body’s guess. Certainly Washington in
recent months, under the pressure of
self-seeking groups and lobbies, has
shown little tendency to halt it. Con-
sistently it ignores the fact that a day
of reckoning impends.
And how long the American people
will submit to such increasing burdens
is also anybody’s guess. Steadily their
protests against reckiess political spend-
ing, wiih all its attendant ills and its
hardships on the worker and earner,
continue to mount.
For today the people realize the threat
—to any country—of a reckless fiscal
policy. Current events abroad continue
to flash on a world screen the tragic pic-
ture of nations wrecked and peoples
enslaved through processes in which
reckless manipulation of the national
income played a significant role.
Increasingly our citizens realize that
one of the greatest contributions Amer-
ica could make to the peace of the world
j would be a return to that prosperity and
I progress which America enjoyed for so
many years.
They have seen that Unnecessary and
reckless spending of the people’s money
by politicians halts rather than hastens
such prosperity. They have seen pro-
duction and employment languish. They
have seen dissatisfaction increase—even
among the beneficiaries of the system.
And now, after nine years of growing
debts and deficits the American people
ask a return to that policy of economy In
government and encouragement of en-
terprise which created American pros-
perity in the past.
Their demand is justified.
For, as every American knows, all the
money that government and the poli-
ticians love to lavish comes from the
people. And to the people belongs the
right to say how their money shall be
spent.
They know that in Debts and Deficits
lurk Dangers.
Mrs. R N McMillan spent
Saturday and Sunday in Dallas
with relatives.
