Theie is very little disagreement anywhere with the administration view that, if anybody cai lies it, the naf tional government must go on carrying the load for the present. work-relie- And yet s The national government, while hearing d than less of the total relief load, actually receives of all governmental revenues. Taking the figures for 1934, the last year for which receipts they are available, we find that of the total taxstate and ',500.000,000 collected by combined federal, local governments, the national government received only a little more than $2,500,000,000, while state governments took in approximately $1,750,000,000 and local governments slightly more than $4, 000, 000,000. It is safe to assume that tax collections of the three governmental divisions are roughly about the same now as in 1934. On the face of these figures, does it look as though state and local governments are carrying their full share of the load ? Of course it must be borne in mind that a heavy proportion of state and local funds goes for purposes which, while not to be classed as relief, would result in greatly increased unemployment and a much bigger relief problem if the money were not so spent. Local governments also have heavy commitments which must be met. Despite all this, there is something decidedly lopsided about the situation. three-fourth- one-thir- - BY fO TO MAKE MONEY THE scene is San Francisco, four years ago. Frank just resigned as mayor of Detroit, is waiting for a siiip to Manila. He has just been appointed of the Philippines. gdver-nor-gener- al Boys, Im broke, Murphy smilingly tells a group of newsmen, and I expect to be the same way when I get back. The reporters wonder why. Murphy explains: When I came out of the war as an infantry captain (after two years overseas, including the Army of Occupation in Germany) 1 took over the prosecution of profiteers in Detroit as chief deputy United States attorney there. It was, in effect, my first public office, and what I learned convinced me that an individuals career in the public service should be divorced from his ambition for wealth. "Before that I had money. But when I decided to continue a public career it was my goal to get rid of it. Somehow or other I succeeded getting rid of money without throwing it away isnt difficult. I presume most American mayors have money. The fact that they have reflects in no wise on their honesty. But I found that when I was dependent entirely on my salary, and had no ambition to gain privately from public office, I actually earned the salary . . . and went to bed at ni'ght with a clear conscience. TO the boys in e the back room, a.- we are accustomed to think of politicians, such naive conies under the head of being a sucker. The careerist in polities knew, and his successors today know, that the purpose of holding office is to get in the money, - old-tim- self-deni- al old-styl- e incidentally performing whatever harmless service he may to his constituents. Despite the general prevalence of this attitude in politics, there always have been, here and there in governmental service, those who approach their jobs in much the same fine and refreshing spirit with which the present Michigan governor entered public life. These men and women who find in lues devoted to public service a richer glow and satisfaction than the acquisition of money could confer are the hope of democracy. In proportion as their tribe inei eases, in proixirtion as our homes and schools bung up boys and girls filled with intelligent zeal to do their utmost for the common good, will America iiiahe headvvav toward the goal of more abundant life for all. 1 X. a A Los Angeles footprint experts shoes were stolen at convention.

This group of court reform opponents who would just as soon have the court plan dropped, is spreading the word around that Roosevelt never expected or intended to have his court bill passed, but was only trying to scare the conservative justices so they wouldn't dare kill any more New Deal legislation. No matter how much credence this story may receive, is just isn't true Roosevelt supposed the court bill would pass long ago, virtually as written. ... ... ... ... ...

As HeapofGerhvw "Whether its a good experiment or a bad experiment Is all a matter of your political point of view, another Alaskan told me quite emphatically. "If you're a New Dealer you think it's a fine thing and want to see it But if you're an anti-Nesucceed. Dealer the project's a mess and probably deserves to fail." There are many other formulas, variations of these and others quite different, with which interested ones seek to measure the Matanuska project and predict its defeat or victory. A casual visitor passing thru the Matanuska Is impressed with the speed with which many score of farm homes have been erected and equipped for living within a short space of time. It seems just a few weeks since we first began hearing of Matanuska and seeing pictures of the outward-boun- d settlers in our newspapers. Many of the homes are- log as houses prettily cut and shaped as any of the summer cabins you see at your lakeside at home. Many of the newer ones are fashioned of planed and board. painted Barns are large, affairs with bases of logs and tops of boards. There is a marked sameness about all of the homes and barns, and chicken coops in the many new clearings. But the home places are far enough apart each settler has 40 acres so the effect of the sameness is varied by the terrain and surroundings, and the notion of regimentation is therefor quite subdued. Many small fields have been cleared and planted. Grain was growing rapidly under the powerful June sun. Stump and brush fires were burning in a thousand places along the roads which all lead to Palmer, the settlement's headquarters.
