To some Washington observers, the reluctance of Congress to initiate economv measures is the most serious legislative development in years. With a $1.8 billion deficit in 1949 and an estimated $873 million deficit for 1950, it well may be con sidered most serious, we think. This Congressional reluctance has manifested itself in the. recent proposal to let the President cut all appropriation^ 10 percent after they have been passed by Congress. A “Let Harr>^ do it, it’s too hot for me,” attitude. Money matters are the responsibility of Congress, and far-reaching and most un favorable results may be forthcoming if the Congress passes the buck of this unpleasant task to the Executive branch of the government. A Congressman is in a pretty tough spot, however, when you come to think about it. First, he is a politician by neces- sitjn or he wouldn’t be in Congress. As a politician he has to ‘ get a share of the government gravy — jobs, construction projects, etc., for his district or he will not be a successful politician and won’t stay in Congress. Now the second point is that to get these things for his dis trict he’s got to vote for the same things for the other Con gressman’s district and so on, round and round with no stop ping. The Member who wants a cotton support price for his constituents has got to support the bill for the government to pay a high price for potatoes and then give them away, or that Congressman won’t support the cotton bill. It’s a known fact that a man who spends more money than he makes goes broke eventually, so what’s a Congressman to do? Should he say, “Cut spending, do without a few things and live on our income”? Or should he say, “My great district must have so and so. If there’s any cutting to be done let Harry do it”? The answer lies with the people, us, that is. All of us, most of whom have one interest in our government, what we can get out of it. The first course would be termed political sui cide by any politician, and it probably would be just that That mere fact is a damning indictment of the American people, other words for saying that we are fools and wastrels James C.
