Curious Facts About
Government Costs
(Continued, from Page 1)
most employes paid more than
$3800 a year. To be exact, 5301
people.
What’s ahead?
Byrd has asked for a cut of 300,-
000 people from the Federal pay
roll. That’s up to the budget
bureau. But Byrd says he will
present a bill to Congress asking
the cut if it doesn’t materialize
otherwise.
Use of Free Mail.
The next investigations of the
committee will take up the use of
free mail, the Reconstruction Fi-
nance Corporation setup, and the
unexpended balances for war pui-
poses.
Right now the unspent funds
total $200,000,000,000 although
Congress still gets requests foi
new appropriations. On July 1 un-
expended, balances were more than
twice as much as had been paid
out for the war.
Like the time an administration
leader was signing an important,
government paper. He was using
several pens so his friends could
have them as mementoes.
A photographer suggested that
he hold up the fistful of pens for
a picture.
“Not on your life,” chuckled the
official. “Byrd might see the pic-
ture.”

FSA Farms Costly
To Taxpayers
(Continued from Page 1)
“The houses they are occupy-
ing are the kind a congressman
would like to find for himself in
Washington.”
“We haven’t yet found a single
project, nor a labor camp, which
is fully occupied.”
“In Texas,” the chairman went
on, “a project was established as
a self-perjetuating ‘charity’ cor-
poration, with three F.S.A. men
on the pay roll as officials.”
“This corporation, which had
no provisions for the payment of
dividends to the tenant farmers,
acquired 26,000 acres of rich farm
land and, as a consequence, was
enabled to borrow huge sums.”
Cooley said.
“At Chandler, Arizonia,” he con-
tinued, “60 apartments were set
up to house workers to develop
300 acres of land, with full dairy
equipment and a fine dairy herd.
Only four co-operative members
remain there. The rest of the peo-
ple, living rent-free in the Gov-
ernment apartments, work where
they please.
“A farm family can make a
living on a $3,800 farm, but in
some of the projects, we have
found the Government invested
more than $35,000 per farm fam-
ily.”

There are no Black Markets in elec-

War production calls for tremendous
