The spider was merely looking over the paper to see which merchant was not advertising so that he could go to that store, spin his web across the door and lead a life of undisturbed peace afterward.” The News-Herald adds: “It’s even more true today. People are buying and reading more newspapers than ever before in history. Population has mccreased 47 per cent since 1920 . . . but newspaper circulation has in creased 94 per cent. , s “Almost everybody reads the newspaper. It's one medium people w-on’t do without.” Wise producers and sellers of goods and services of all kinds know that newspaper ad vertising is the best way to keep the spider and his web away! A U. S.

If there were actually no limit to the amount of debt the nation could carry, then we could imagine a debt of a size that would require an annual interest payment equalling the total national income. This, of course, reduces their argument to an absurdity. Be cause, again we say, the interest charge must be paid each year as it falls duo—and where would the money come from? It would be worth our while to consider for a mo ment where the money is coming from with which to pay our present annual interest of $8 billion. It is, of course, coming from the people—and the people live in the states, so it would be quite informative to know just how much of this interest the people of each state are paying. This amount can be quite fairly arrived at by pro rating it out to the states on the same basis as they pay internal revenue in to the federal government. For instance, the State of Tennessee pays 1.24% of the total internal revenue paid by the 48 states of the Union. This means that the people of Tennessee are paying |99 million each year as their share of the an nual interest on the debt—Tennessee's share at the national debt is t3.410.OM. 000 Tbe latest figure we have on Twessat’s stoto dsbt June ».
