Are Railroad Labor Leaders
Using Good Judgment
The railroad unions will take
strike vote because the railroads
were unable to grant the 30 per
cent pay increase they had asked.
The railroads stated in an advertise-
ment in this newspaper six weeks
ago that the union demands would
cost them $900,000,000 a year which
would have meant a deficit of 600
millions in 1940 for the railroads
In spite of the struggle which the
railroad industry has gone thru
~ince the depression, earnings of
railroad workers are the highest
they have ever been. Few railroads
have been able to pay anything to
stockholders and many stockhold-
ers and bond holders have lost their
entire investment
It is generally conceded that the

DEFENSE VS. EXTRAVAGANCE
An Associated Press dispatch
from Washington on July 29 gave
information that the United States
Treasury in the ,first 26 days of the
fiscal year spent $1,386,475,350 and
took in $351,205,514, creating a
deficit of $1,035,269,896, with half
of the spending going for defense
Taken apart these figures mean
that of that deficit of more than
billion dollars more than 140 mil-
lions was due to the ordinary ex-
penses of government. Sales of
war 'bonds and stamps did not en-
able the government to keep pace
with the ordinary spending of an
extravagant administration. In real-
ity the New Deal is sabotaging na-
tional defense 'by its indefensible re-
fusal to cut ordinary expenses
If the country is to have faith in
its administrators it is time to
change our financial policies That
economy which is being suggested
to the public should 'be applied in
Washington. If quotations of the
President from his campaign utter-
ances about war and defense are
treason, what shall we call the
waste and extravagance of those
who undermine the country's
finances in the hour of war emerg-
encies? Outspoken support of Hit-
ler is not more unpatriotic than
wasting the substance of our de-
fense.--Lou Gardner in "heft To
Write."
OONGRESS SHOULD HEAR
I,~ROM AMERICAN TAXPAYERS
Our president is still asking for
more funds--in huge sums---and
additional power This writer has
a hunch that the request for funds
is handled like this: Suppose the
administration will .be satisfied with
2 billion dollars, but asks for 3
~)illion. As soon as congress is ad-
vised that another 3 billion is being
asked some of the members protest
vigorously against any such grant
There is more or less debate and
then the administration relents and
agrees to say 1 billion reduction
from the original askings.
Sounds good doesn't it. I,ater
the administration, reluctantly, ap-
,parently, accepts the two billion.
The net result is that the adminis-
tration gets exactly what it wanted
and the bluster congress made
about the original request puts tbe
members who protested in a posi-
tion to send "news releases" label-
ed "not printed at government ex-
pense" to the newspapers through-
out the country telling how they
"saved" the nation a billion dollars.
'Great victory and the representa-
tives and senators expect re-elec-
tion. This formula is used right
along and works, too, solely because
the great American citizenry is too
busy, or something, to get up on
his hind legs, and tell congress they
