No thinking person believes that such; a condition can continue inde?- initely.

Other bilions flowed into the pockets of workers and the sell- ers of materials through projects financed by the Government in conjunction with local govern- ments. This phase of the depres- sion fight has consumed two bil- lion dollars. Highway construc- tion added another billion and a quarter and federally financed public works about the same ‘amoynta.
