The high cost of government in city, county, state and nation | is becoming appalling and amounts to $2 per day for the average family. The cost of running the gov- ernment is now more than $18,- 000,000 a day. This estimate is based on the known cost of $5,028,176,000 for the first nine months of the fiscal year, which means an annual rate of at least $6,750,000,000 or more than six | times what used to be consider- | ed an extravagant living rate for Uncle Samuel before the war. | The people know the facts in‘ regard to tax matters and every individual and industry feels the burden. They have no one to blame but themselves if they | fail to elect men to office who} stand for a conservative busi-| ness program which recognizes , the rights of the taxpayers as/| paramount to the demands of | professional politicians and tax-| eaters. | | WHOSE SISTER?

The declaration cf principles, which was read by James A. Farrell, lays down a strong policy for development of America's foreign trade and urges: That the government maintain as a principle of foreign policy that Ameri- can enterprise abroad is entitled to the same measure of protection from the government of the country where domiciled that foreign enterprise here receives from this government. That the United States as a creditor nation should afford other nations every reasonable opportunity to sell | thelr products to ug; “especially of raw | materials, without detriment to exist ing industries.” That every proper measure should turers and producers to full employ ment of their facilities.
