M, Lee sent reports. to newspapers showing the bulging sur- plus in the state treasury. At one time, as The Citizen recalls, the amount.. was $80 million. But Comptroller Gay, in a statement recently issued, givesthe estimated un- cumbered balance’ that. willbe in the treasury on June 30, 1949, as only $7,557,- 084.80. It is significant that the amount ends in “80.” It brings to mind that old- time saying about making something “Look like 30 cents.” That’s how the balance will’ look in comparison with the time, in the last administration, when the balance was bursting at the seams. Well may Governor Fuller Warren point out that failure to provide new rev- enue to offset the state’s deficit spending last year and increased : demands on state services and institutions weuld bring a “partial breakdown of state government.” He also said of the state government that it is faced with the “worst financial crisis that has confronted it in my life.” He has been caught “holding the bag,” and the bag is almost empty. He could have said that at no other time in the history of Florida has. an incoming gov- ernor been caught in so acute‘ a financial strait. “ In his message to the legislature, he recommended new or increased taxation that would return $50 million, an amount that the state government needs to function satisfactorily during the next two years. He is aware that a determined fight will be waged by lobbyists for special interests, and he warned the legislators against the lobbyists. Their attitude is.that they don’t care where the taxation is imposed so long as it does not hit the “interests the lobbyists represent. The forward-looking schools are now lining up their commencement orators. MAY BRING PEACE Attacking the North Atlantic Pact, Henry Wallace says it will cost the United States “up to 30,000,000,000 of dollars” to rearm Western Europe and argues that the money should be used to build low- cost homes, to insure every person, against unemployment, illness and old-age, to raise minimum wages and to provide schools and hospitals for all. Obviously, the vast majority of the people of the United States would prefer to use the $30,000,000,000 for general im- provement, somewhat along the lines suggested by the former Vice-President. Nevertheless, if we spend our money for these things and remain comparatively unarmed in the present world situation, what assurance have we that some other nation will not take advantage of our weakness and take over the country, to- gether with the possessions of the citizens of this Republic? The staggering cost of war and pre- paredness for expected war has long been the target of individuals who suggest that it is foolishness and that the wiser course is to use the money for the bene- Nevertheless, until there actively pro- fit of the people. is some guarantee which ef. tects a peace-preferring nation from the aggression of others, there is no alterna- tive except to follow the sage advice, pre- pare for war in times of peace. We are not among those who _ insist that war between the United States and Russia is inevitable. We recognize that the present unbalance of military forces constitutes a strong tempta- ans to use force to se- eure their ends. The rearming of Europe will tend to create a balance between the contending forces in Europe and thus, we believe, have a tendency to prevent war: The Russians will not accept war as an instrument of national policy. The state of Western Europe’s defenses is such that the outcome of the war will be uncertain. in Europe tion to the Rus This is one of the best times that you will ever have to pay your indebtedness. PRICES ARE COMING DOWN News from the big cities shows that the big merchants and manufacturers recognize the fact that buyer resistance is mounting. It is of general interest to note the fact that radios show the biggest drop —a lusty 20 to 50 percent off of home model sets.
