The rumor that Justice Black recently made a Klandestine visit “to the White House has not been confirmed. Ambition is what makes a young fel- low working six hours a day with no worry want to be a boss and work 14 hours a day with all the worry. A Canadian paper reports that farmer in its community had two wind- mills, but took one down because there was not wind enough to run both. Fishermen wonder whether the sal- mon wil] be-able to: get over Bonneville Dam in the Columbia River, Ain exchange wonders if the taxpayers will ever get over it. When we arrive in this world we cry, during our life we have many occasions to ery and do; at the deathbed others cry be- cause of us. No wonder they call this earth a vale of tears. The standard of living the world over is-depending more and more on the gen- | erosity of the government and less on a real ecoriomic foundation. That this situa- tion will bring about a slavish condition, eventually leading to a dictatorship, is easily comprehensible. Florida is not going into vaudeville but nevertheless is preparing to put on an act—the Murphy Act. The act will be pleasing.to all, particularly the county clerks, the smewspapers, and the tax ‘dodg- ers, The exception is the honegt tax payer, who doesn’t think it so funny that once more he has been made the goat. A Key Wester has sidéd in Miami since has nounced his candidacy for member of Con- | but one who re- boyhood an- fae ; If anybody imagines that this money FEDERAL AID FALLACY | There is no Sianbe that the financial plight in which many staies find them- selves has been caused largely by ‘he | eral aid for road building and other proj- ects. While the building of roads highly commendable proceeding, the fact ‘is that the states have bankrupted selves by going too fast, spurred temptation of Federal aid. The states have eagerly swallowed ] this bait, apparently looking upon the Fed- eral money as a gift from heaven. But, as | every sensible person might have readily seen, these Federal sums had to come from | the pockets of the public, just as the state funds do. In other words, the government says: is a them- by the statel billion.|| tell is—with for roads, provided you allow your governments to tax you another And the pork barrel politicians you, how generous Uncle Sam own money, Of course, if Uncle Sam is going to}: tax the states for their pro rata of the Fed-| eral highway fund anyway, each state gov: ernment feels that it must impose ‘a? its own people to meet itor lose its Pp portion of the Federal levy. De Thus a sort of vicious circle is created, from which the states can “*hardiff ae cad: For if any state does not match the F 1 pou on of the Federal tax, and see it go to states which do. By this system a club is placed in the hands of the Federal government with which to virtually ferce each state to match government funds, whether it can afford to do so or not. In practice, so-called Federal aid is merely a bureaucratic scheme for coercing the states into bankruptcy, to keep the Federal government company in its simi- lar condition. MAYBE SO; MAYBE NOT We see where an educational director has advised young couples to “marry faith, without waiting for a large income.” She feels sure that this will give them “burden to share’ and that the “weight insures a happy home.” There is much to be said for the vice, properly understood, but, on other hand, much to be said against it. It all depends upon what the lady viser means by “large income,” and definition of such a term varies with the economic status of the person defending it. There are happily married couples who started on a shoestring and there are un- happily married couples who trace troubles to financial difficulties. There are those who start their married life with plenty or financial backing and end up on the rocks while others, in the same cir- cumstances, make their marriage ideal. op a ad- the ad- riage depends more upon the personalities involved than it does upon the money that they have to spend, 7 FINANCIAL HOCUS-POCUS | >t iy") (From the New Yous tUnds) During the first the four months of the he. fiscal year pvernment of the United States has colleeted $215,000,000 in social secu has been set aside under lock and key, in a special reserve fund which will accumulate interest over period of gress from the Fourth District, the post now held by Representative J.
