Fitz- i gerald, Governor of Michigan, said, in re- counting his experience in seeking a share of Federal relief funds to aid in building | an addition to the largest state hospital in Michigan: “A young recently official from Washington sat in my office and told me the | state would have to conform, to certain he said, ‘we won’t be money’ is what he said. Well, I told that young man he better go back to Washing ton and find out whose money he wa: talking about. In that instance, he was | | talking about money belonging to the peo- ; ple of Michigan, money the people of} Michigan were rightfully entitled to use “That's the attitude which I deplore —this tendency to count the taxpayer out he has |- thrown his chips into the pot. “It’s the taxpayer’s fault in a way.! He has permitted government bureaus and | on one of making When the stripped down another until there’s no way head or tail out of the tangle. structure of government i: icimmings and unnecessary annexes have been removed, the taxpayer is going to re- gain sight of his dollars—not until then.! ly to take a greater interest in the manner THE SERVICE OF INDUSTRY Discussing the use of surpluses created by industry in good times, the New} York Times points out that they perform «.1 important social function. “They are the Times reveals, ‘‘for the replace- | ment of obsole.cent machinery, for the ir tallation o. new machinery, for the erec- w factories and office buildings, creation of new capital goods wiety. rhe creation of these new capital ulatively increases the volume of consimption goods that American in-| dustry can turr out year by year for our people. It increases the productivity of the American workman, and_ hence his earning power. It provides endlessly new opportunities for employment.” Using the automobile industry as an from the “Financial History of the Automobile industry,” cf ne for th- of goous cu to show that in one year out of in nine automobile companies, all but $335,000.- from reinvestment out of surpluces of the corporations themselves. “At the present time, as has been constantly emphasized,” the “the great bulk of the ex i employment is in the capital-goods indu tries.

The doctor is quite proud of his} charges, who have their own hospital and, nurses in the Ontario, Canada, community where they were born. Sleeping outdoors, even when the temperature is 30 degrees they eat a normal diet— Lananas, oranges, vegetables, cereal, soups } id milk. Their mental progress is about} the same of normal single children. The va‘ difference comes when the, guestion of finances is considered. Here} the quints are far ahead of the normal single child, with a fortune of about $150,- 000 in hand ana the prospect of much more before they can grow up. | jthe liquor into the United eats le | ning THE KEY WEST CITIZEN Poor Little Fellow _ 77 SHALL IIKNoctS) HIM DIZZY WITH ONE OR KNOCIS Him CoLD eaters?)
