California, and entered as mail * matter of the second class in the postoffice at Nevada City. under Act of Congress, March 3, 1879. _ SUBSCRIPTION RATES One year (In ,Advance) -......----.eeeetee sees $2.50 Greater Than Them All , Eight peace-time years of President Roosevelt and the New Deal have cost the Federal Treasury more than twice as much money as it has spent on all the wars in which the United States has participated put together. This astonishing fact was made apparent today by an analysis of the President's ‘budget message which for the first time gave to Congress and the American people a complete picture of the cost of government under the New Deal. Unless President Roosevelt obtains a third term, the _ budget which he sent to Congress yesterday is the last he will have to prepare before leaving office. In that budget the President disclosed the actual amounts paid out by the Treasury during the first six years of his administration, he submitted revised estimates of the contemplated expenditures for the current year and set for the itemized list of anticipated expenses during his final year in office. . The total bill which he presented to Congress for the eight years of his administration was for the astronomical sum of $65,629,000,000, of which more than $40,000,000,000 tomes from the taxpayers and more than $25,500,000,000 has been borrowed. With that bill, President Roosevelt has hung up a record of prodigality never equaled’ in any other eight-year period of American history. — How puny were the records of his predecessors in office by comparison may be gauged by the fact that at the end of 1876—one century after the signing of the Declaration of Independence—the eighteen Presidents who had held office up to that time had spent jointly and collectively a total of $9,000,000,000. : President Roosevelt is spending $9,200,000.000 of the Treasury's money every year, despite the fact that this sum once was sufficient to meet all the needs of the Federal Government for eighty-seven years, covering not only the costs incident to the rapid national expansion and constantly diminishing frontier, but the costs of the War of 1812; the Indian ‘Wars, the’ Mexican War and the Civil War included. :' These first eighteen Presidents from Washington to Grant, inclusive, were pikers when it came to realizing the need for “deficit spending.” Their successors did a little bet-. ter, but it took the twenty-seven presidents of the United ‘States 130 years to top the figure that President Roosevelt has managed to reach in eight years. From 1789 to 1920 inclusive, according to the annual report of the Secretary of the Treasury, All the peace-time and all the war-time expenditures of the Federal Government put to gether totaled $66,344,000,000 — or just $715,000,000 more than the New Deal has shoveled out in eight years. This sum included the total cost not only of the wars mentioned, but of the Spanish and the World War as well. In his message to Congress the President said: “The budget of the United States Government is a statement that reflects in money terms what the Government does for the people and what the people contribute to the Govern. ment. "In these figures over a course of years are mirrored the changing attitudes of the people toward the growing needs which they expect their Government to meet. The relatively low and constant level of expenditures throughout the nineteen-twenties accurately reflected the relatively ‘minor role played by the Government in those. O08 eS ae ees _ ~The substantial increase in the past decade is a reflection of the degree to which the country, in response to changing economic and international conditions and changing attitudes, has turned to the Government to meet social needs recognized by our citizenship. Nowhere are our democratic processes so faithfully depicted.”’ If the great administrations of American history are to be measured by the principle ‘propounded by President Roosevelt, then his administration will go down in history not only as hundreds of times more effective and more democratic. than. those of Washington, Lincoln, Jefferson, Jackson and Wilson, but greater than the administrations of them all and all the intervening Presidents together. — Phelps Adams, in special disptach from Washington, D.
