Southey furnished five loaves and Foster three. “Finishing our repast, I reached into my ragged pocket and pulled out 8 cents. ‘There you are, boys—that's all the dough I have. both of you get your right share.’ “Southey scratched his head in mock bewilderment and said. ‘Hell!

BEGINS NE FISCAL PROGRAM Short Cut to Prosperity Has Brought Domestic and World-Wide Reactions. ‘The United States started a new year today, leaving behind in its pursuit cf progress some ancient commandments about how a government should treat its citizens and their money. Important in these changes is what has happened to the “gold standard.” Of interest is the fact that an individ- ual can expect more direct aid from his Federal Government now than ever be- fore. Since mid-March money has been “off the gold standard.” People used to _be able to trade a dollar bill for gold. Now they can trade it only for | another dollar bill or for paper se- | curities, such as a share in the mort- gage on a house. This condition is said to be only tem- porary. But the proclamations and laws that brought it about and the results that followed in the effort to ytake a short cut to prosperity have | brought domestic and world-wide re- ! actions. | Of more direct concern to the in- | dividual are some other things. For | generations people have been told to settle their money problems with their | bankers. Now, though, the Government is building up two $2.000,000.000 funds from which a man, under limitaticns, | may borrow enough mone; to keep his | home or farm Millions are being poured out, too, to care for the hungry and poorly clothed. A number of other, and different things, are being done. The Govern- ment once kept only one set of books; now it keeps two. One records expen- ditures and tax receipts used for ordi- nary operations. The other records emergency expenses that are to be re- tired over a long period. ‘The $3,300,000.000 job-creating pub- lic works program is in the latter class. Long-term bonds will be issued to finance that. Money to pay off these bonds when they mature is to be raised by special taxes, expected to bring in $225,000.000 a year. ‘The Government also has told bank- ers they must stop speculating with | the people’s money; it is setting up | machinery to insure against loss money | that is put in the banks; it is in a | position to tell industry, for a time, | at least, how long it shall work its | employes and how much it shall pay them. The 1933 fiscal year ended at mid- night last night. with the Government around $1.760.000.000 in the red for the last 12 months Cuts in expendi- tures and new taxes, officials hope, will year. | Former Brooklyn Resident Posts Bond for Release From Jail. | LOS ANGELES, July 1 (#).—A $2.500 bond was posted yesterday with a United States commissioner by Irving | Austin, former Brooklyn, N.

An army of 100,000 men will be swinging picks and shovels on highway construction jobs within six weeks, the Public Works Administration announced as the $400,000,000 appropriation for highway construction becomes available to the States today.

Included are rivers and harbors proj- ects, flood control. reclamaticn w national park service roads and trails, Indian office construction and a varied i list of other buildings by the 60 or 70 Federal ag-ncies included in the pro- gram. Details were withheld, however, pending approval cf the program. Meanwhile, public works officials con- tinued the preparation of lists of nomi- nees to be State administrators. They will be submitted to President Roose- | velt on his return from his vacation. There has been some discussion of designating varous regional administra- tive areas, but board members said this question also is up to President Roosevelt. Applications for State, city, county and other non-Federal projects under present plans of the boara must be sub- mitted through a State administrator for approval, with those approved sent on to Washington for final action. ,CHIL.D SAFEfY STRESSED IN NEW TRAFFIC POSTER “Watch Out for Children!” Warn- ing Given in Campaign Led Here by W.

He then went back to work on some important matters that had piled up. About 4 o'clock mother and the rest of us went aboard the cruiser for tea and a look at the wonders of this newest of our Navy's ships. She is built in accordance with the restric- tions of the Washington naval treaty, but is equipped with all the most mod- ern devices. It is always a wonder to me how any one has the brain and imagination to work out the modern perfections of science. For instance, there is on board a machine which automatically calculates the proper range of the ship’s guns and adjusts it to the roll of the ship and its speed through the water, together with the reported direction movements of the target at aim. How a poor hunter ever hits a duck is beyond me. We are all wishing we could sail back | to Washington with father atoard the Indianapolis. But we dread today for we hate to see it bring the end of our vacation together. As if to fit in with our thoughts the fog has shut in again, thicker, and though we dare not say it aloud, we hope it might mean just one more day, spent perhaps in mak- ing plans to do next year what we missed this. For this is the second | year of what we hope to make an annual affair. It is difficult to think of any other way in which the skipper could get such a thorough rest, be so completely away from the jangling telephone, and achieve the relaxation which comes from comparative soli- tude. Tomorrow we finish the last chapter of these rambling observations as we see the skipper sail away to plunge once more into the vast pro- gram ahead.
