Friday, May 20, 1932 JO Per Cent Cut in All Debts A fifty per cent, cut in all debts, prFvste, pobHc, national and international, would go along way to wards restoring prosperity. If half of the indebtness of England, France, Italy, the United States and several others was cancelled, and half of the debts due the great bankingMnstitutions were can celled and then let the cancellation go on down to the little fellow who owes his groceryman for food and can't pay him, prosperity would soon return. As it now is, we have bond and mortgage holders through out the world who are anxious for the cancellation of debts due the nations so their claims will be increased in value. The only way is to cut all, even our own government bonds. It will be remembered that these bonds were issued when money was cheap, and that the holder will get as much of everything for his half dollars as he paid for with his whole dollar. Of course the wealthy would not see it this way. But when it comes to the principle of right and wrong wouldn't such a plan be better than bankruptcy, revo lution or peonism? The People Believe Senator Glass The Glass rock certainly did make em holler! When Senator Glass charged big banking interests with buying up members of Congress, it certainly did ctuse a howl Everybody knows that most Congress men do not sell out. On the other hand it is the gen eral belief that special interests buy up as many as they need to carry their points. Of course it is not always a cash over-the-counter deal, because those birds know the rbpes too well to do any thing like that. It may be some special favor to a friend or some rich retainer or some family social prestige. Yet, whatever the case may be, the public believes many law-makers yield for various causes. The people be lieve the testimony of Senator Glass when he made the charge. And then some people believe that some Congressmen are owned hide, hoof and horns by cer tain mdneyed interests when they enter the capitol building in Washington. Remove the Lion From the Path Much is being said about the need of confidence in business. If the government will get the lion out of the path, business will begin to Improve. The lion is the dominating influence of a few great banks over all the business and finance of the entire country. Every weH-jx)sted man knows that they have taken advantage of world conditions caused by war and that they have so handled and mahfpulated our money system that nothing else has any value. So long as a leading banker manipulates our finan cial system as Secretary of the Treasury, the giant banks will make money and the people at large and the little banks will brtak. The government itself should handle the issuing and expansion of currency and llot entrust it to a band of selfish bankers, who are as dangerous to the small investor as a hungry Hon is among a bunch of lambs. Impossible Promises Sampson Independent. We tfke it that a brighter day is,about to dawn for Ibe Tarmrs; that is, if the politicians are to be believed. Every candidate from township constable to the United States Senate, who has taken the stump srffa* 111 the 'present campaign, has a plan that Is dead Mire to remedy the ills that beset agriculture. But if we rightly remember, that same line of talk has been used by candidates every two years since -elections have been held, and up to the present writing the re sults, YfcgaMTess of who was elected, have been about Th* fact that (helarmer 'ever 'sttnds in the toed of -mid if the reason, no daubt, that the pdMCPttu give- flttm so mOch 'thdUfcht and attention dnHng the campaign. There ought to be a reihtdy, to be attre, but campaign promisee have been slow to bring ft about. And we have no reMoo to believe that the promiaea of IW2 are materially different from theeeof other years. The thiag for trhfch we -blame poHtfcal candidates, generally sfftaMng, is that they PUBLISHED WBJ Out of Balance Strati Jfewrtftn farrrters gftd l«borer**re saM to be ttiraer hit tßan our North AmW«n people, ff that is true, tlfc&e peoj*e are having it jWfetty 'to^Rb. If as if those loans floated at ®e fexpttfe of the people of the Sutes and made to those to the south of us did not help the rank and file very much. It just looks as if the big folks of the world have combined against the little folks, and are about to starve them to deaths It turns out that all the money made during the past ten years in this Country and abrtfad has gffne to a few folks. In (his cottntry the money Went to the manipulating banks in New York; in foreign countries the resources have been sacrificed by their rulers to a few American investors. It is just too bad to see the world so badly out of balance. c Petisions Pill County Record. The United States has always been the most liber al country in the world in providing pensions for the men who have served in its army and navy. Recently there has been a good deal of discussion of this pen sion situation, which is costing the taxpayers of the United States consfderably more than a billion dol lars a year. We have no quarrel whatever with the principle that a man who has been wounded or disabled by ill ness while risking his life for the defense of his coun try should be taken care of, so long as he rteeds it, at the expense of his country. But we have no sym pathy for the able-bodied, self-supporting man who thinks that he is entitled to a pension merely because he was under arms for a while in a training cartlp. And we have still less sympathy for the man who tries by fraudulent means to obtain a pension by special act of Congress. . President Hoover put his finger on one of the weak est spots in our pension system when he vetoed the omnibus pension- 1 bill. This is an annual affair which usually has a great many meritorious claims of would be pensioners who are not by any stretch of the imag ination entitled to be supported by the public. As Mr. Hoover pointed out, the people of the United States should not be taxed to pension a man who was court-martialed for drunkenness and conduct prejudic ial to good order and was finally discharged without honor for the good of the service, or for a man whose injuries were incurred in attempting suicide, or for a soldier toht*>se only injury was the loss of a leg by be ing run over by a street car when he was lying on the track intoxicated. Those are only a few of the fraudulent claims for pensions which were included In this year's omnibus pension bill. By all means, we think, every man who has ever proved his willingness to die for his country has a special claim upon the nation's gratitude. But we feel also that the greatest care should be taken at all times, an despecially now, to protect the nation a gainst fraudulent pension claims. Not the Right Way Raleigh Sews and Observer. Referring to the renewed discussion about silver, the Baltimore Sun says the silver question is so com plex that "the easiest things to do is to forget about silver and take the position that the whole business was settled in 1896." That may be "the easiest way," but it is not the right way. The only thing that was settled in 1896 was that the United States should not, or would hot, undertake "the free coinage of silver at the ratio of 16 to 1 without waiting for the aid or consent of any other nation," and that Great Britain regarded the (fold standard as so essential to world stability it nMulrf not debate bimetalism. . Ih*_ "easiest way" is rarely the best way. After 1896, the discovery of gold in abundance in the Kton dyke and in South Africa disposed of the silver ques tion for years. Now that Great Britain has gdnie off the gold standard and the United States can sell little to silver-producing States, economists are divided as to whether trade will not be enlarged and prosperity aided if the world will return to bimetalism on a sound basis. This Congress should instruct the President to seek an international conference to discuss the monetary questions, including bimetalism. That may not be "the easiest way." It is the right way out of the present maze. Attractive Goldsboro Sews-Argus. A pretty girl in a light summer dress, with a smilfhg face on which art may have helped nature, coquet tish, alluring and yet repulsing any too active ad vances, is enough to 1 catcfc the €ye of hny hum as she passes down the hard sidewalk. But in the very perfection of her art of make-up and of dress, in the coquettshness which is part of the same artfulness, sbch a girl *iay often fall *hort of the attraction exerted Without intent by the tass in si triple overalls. There is something about overalls on a girl—the ap pearance that is boyish and yet decidedly not boyish— hah a bit freetmd disordered by lkbor and the tfreese, face 'foey With' nature's own ripe flush, sleeves rolled up to bare capable arms, which makes a man kei such « girl is friendly and-B(rt'too-itanddßah,'*ie'that _ he along writh. Here's to the girl in overalls, hay we hever lose her.
