And it is not a false pride, for Americans have more comforts and conveniences than any other people — all because America has pioneered in the development of these modern things through industrial expansion. With that expansion millions of jobs were created so those millions could buy the things they produced. Now, however, America finds itself alarmingly going backward instead of forward toward an even higher standard of living. Consider the hundreds “ ways in which the . 30,000,000 people of our country earn or receive their living. Broken down into classifications, we find now that relief—at the expense .of the taxpayer and the public purse — ranks fourth. That means that more people are now being supported on relief rolls than by such other industries as mining, public utilities, transportation and construction. Only iiahudacturine, farming and the service trades rank above relief. advanced materially during the past five-year era of government pump-priming and indiscriminate ‘ “emergency” spend-. ing. Since 1933 the staggering total of more than $16,000.-. 000,000 has been poured into the relief channels. By July i,'! 1939, according to current government spending estimates, . the total will mount to at least $20,000,000,000. Some people say Federal spending is a political exnedtent. Perhaps it is, but we wonder if, in the long run, industrial America and its high living standards can survive if relief finally becomes the first ranking business of the country? duce to exist.
