This prompted one staff mem-r mem-r to remark that Wallace's de- 1937. had "given away $2,594,- 0.000," Morgenthau reports. Daniel Bell, director of the idget, then asked, "Does that in-ude in-ude good roads?"

"If you argued that he had spent more than was necessary, neces-sary, as he sometimes had, his response always could be that you-were you-were arguing against the needy."
