J. Devine & Co. shows that the' United States Treasury spent almost $40,000,000.000 from the end of 1930 to the close of 1936, that expen- ditures exceeded receipts by $20,000,000,000 and that recovery and relief accounted for more t third of the money spent by the Treasury. These expenditures, huge as they are, represent but a part of the cost of the depression: The tre- Imendous shrinkage in all values and in the national income; the bankruptcies, the destruction of savings the suffering, the suicides; the men forever deprived self-respect and usefulness by fear and insecurity A dollar sign cannot be put in front of some of these items, but they also represent real losses in terms ot our national wealth. We wonder how many people, as they read the figures on our Government expenditures during the depression, will think of these other costs.” We wonder how many will realize that almost any price for ward- ing off so great an economic catastrophe would have been cheap.
