It What sort of a tax bill is going to come out, _ nobody now dares to pre dict with any attempt at accuracy. Nor is it possible to tell how govern mental expenses are going to be re duced. President Hoov^ in k public; statement recently pointed out that | more thim one-half of the govern-j ment’s annual costs, or more than two billion dollars, is of such a character; that it cannot be reduced. “It is largT*- j ly an inheritance of the great war i through incjea.se of payment on gov- ‘ ernment obligations and the care oft veterans and their families,’’ the pre.s-| ident said. “In addition, our army and navy costs about seven hundred mil lion dollars. We should not further reduce the strength of our defense.”] That leaves only about one billion [ three hundred million of the budget! figures within which ec’onomies can be effected, and what will be done about that nobody knows. Just at the moment this is w’ritten it looks as if there were a .strong likelihood of passage of a bill to dis tribute another two billion dollars or more to army veterans. If such a bill , privilege of varying the program at I will.

Those are indications that some of the tilings done in Washington so far this year have been helpful. But, on the other hand, th^re is a very violent protest by bankers to Senator Glass’s proposed amendment to the Federal Reserve act, which they say would be deflationary and would put politidans in control of the banking sysTem, which is the last thing that either the bankers or the public generally want.

All this means a type of “c<m»ump- tion” which is very different from that of the yeans 1924-1929. In that period we thought of a “consumer” as one who used an article until it wna a little shabby and then traded it in. The dictionary definition of “con sumer” is “one who . . . destroys, one who uses up an article.” We are destroying things now*, us ing them up completely.
