It is easy to spend money, buMt
is anuch more, difficult to earn it or
save it, and Congress will be hard
pushed to find means to raise money
"to pay the running expenses of the
government and the interest upon the
national debt, to say nothing of reducing
the principle. Re-adjustment
has been accomplished so quickly
that there seems to be little hope of
a reduction by excess profit taxation.
Before entering into a trade agreement
with Russia the United States
demands that she pay her indebtedness
to this country, a mere bagatelle
of $350,000,000 of which $178,729,750

the provisional Russian government,

High Taxes.
In every section of th? United
States there is a wail against tax
burdens, but nowhere is there a cry
for a reduction of government ex
penditures.
It costs money to run the governm?nt
and monev for that purpose
must come from the people in some
form of taxation. If we are heedless
regarding the expenditure of money
for any government purpose whatever
we should not complain if our
taxes are high, whether that expenditure
be by the national government,
the state or municipality in which we
live. The same principle applies in
every case. Government money is
the people's money.
During the past five years there
has been a tremendous increase in
taxes because of war. Much of the
expenditure by the Federal governing

ment has been heedless, and much' that
was spent upon the cost plus'
plan has been criminal, but that in |
no way reduces the liability of the
tax-payer. He must settle for all the
wise and unwijte expenditures of
government officials.
The high level of war expenditures
still continues, and will continue until
a more economic system is adopted.
The ships that are rotting at
their moorings, monuments to the j
stupidity of the shipping board, represent
just so much of the people's
money that is going to waste, and this
is but one item of a long list of financial
mismanagement on the part of
men who were entrusted with responsibility
far too great or their capacity.

We are living in perilous times.
Graft seems to be a leading passion,
and the fifty-cent dollars of the j
American people, spent in war time,
will have to be redeemed by the taxpayer

one hundred cents, and consequently
twice as hard to obtain.

The cost of the great war is far in
excess of the world's supply of gold,
and therefpre there is little hope that
Germany can pay her indemnity at
the present time in cash. Allowing ^
such to be a fact, and that the Allies
will take manufactured goods in payment
of all or a part of Germany's ,
li
debt, what effect will such a deal ^
have upon the nations that collect
tTieir portion of the indemnity in
that manner?
The answer is easy. Germany will n
be busy. Her mills will run over- 0
time to supply the goods. Her work- a
"men will be paid and Germany will s
be prosperous.
On the other hand the Allies, receiving
German manufactured goods
: in payment of the indemnity, will do
so at the expense of their own Indus- "
tries. Their markets will be glutted
with German goods. Their factories
will be idle; their workmen out of a
employment; money will cease to
circulate; prices will drop and there
will'be little or no money in circula- v
tion to purchase the goods so taken. c
, The victor nations will then be the ^
losers; for they will have lost the life ^
j of the nation?its industry. From an 2
economic standpoint would it not be 1
hetter to eive Germany the indemnity 1
than to impoverish the laboring peo- 1
pie of any nation?

work for the daughters of S

I am sending you a copy, cf an arti.
le which appeared in the Rock Hill
lecord relative to the tr^aflncnl
hieh Winthrop has received at tin
ands of the General Assembly at
s last meeting. Read iit carefully.
irhat do you think of this discrimlation
against Winthrop college, the
outh Carolina college for Women'
,r.e the Winthrop Alumnae to receive
lis'treatment in dumb silence?
Our brothers in the state college*
>r men received none too much when
ley were given more than a million
ollars, but why should we' be giver
nly about one-fourth as much? Wc
rere given nearly $20,()U0 less than
ist year and this is in the face ol
tie fact that Wiutnrop ran hduui
33,000 short last year and would have
losed her doors last November hac
ot the Governor permitted the use
f $16,000 from his emergency furk
nd fhe Trustees and President J6hiT
on given their individual notes foi
lore than $16,000.
Such treatment indicates either e
ack of appreciation of the wenderfu:
>'ork done by the college or willfu
eglect of the only state Insdtutioi
or the higher education of women.
And now, my fellow alumnae, wha
re we going to do about it? If yoi

We think our people should knov
how Winthrop was treated by th
recent legislature.
President Johnson, while a*. At
lantic City, sent the following tele
;ram to Senator Hart, who did hi
jest to secure for Winthrop prcpe
treatment at the hands of the Leg
slature:

Carol'na, Cfsn tJo so. It would bo
a disaster to the Stake, however, if
j Winthrop should be crippled. There
! was never a time when there, was
, a greater need for teachers, and
j Winthrop is preparing the main
| supply of trained teachers for the
Stjt^o. it would be a calamity to
! the State if Winthrop's ability to
j serve the. State were seriously re,
duced at this time, as now seems
j likely will be the case unless the
I House appropriation is amended by
the Senate in the particulars mentioned.
We are asking for only
enough money to run the college efficiently
as now organized. We do not
ask for new buildings or new work.
J "I cannot think anyone wants to
i cripple Winthrop college, the one in.
j stitution established and maintained
I hv the state for the aducation of the
i women of the State, or will do so
knowingly. The institution, 1 am
sure, has a warm place in the hearts
of tlie people.^. .-vly object in this telegram
is to make a last presentation
of the facts in the case."
The Legislature failed to give the
| relief pjked for. While requiring
jail College revenues to be turned inthe
State treasury, it failed to provide
the money required to pay jani.
tors and laborers now emplayed at
reduced wages, it failed by $7,000 to
; provide money absolutely necessary
I to keep up the college machinery and
, college plant; it failed to provide one 1
I dollar for the employment of a few
, additional teachers to care for addi,
tional students next session; it fail,
ed to make any provision to cdmplete
the teachers' home and the enlargement
of the library, both in rerection
by action of a previous Legislature.
) While denying Winthrpp college the
, money necessary^ for running expenses
and to complete buildings already
r in course of erection, it gave to another
:l ate collegy over $15,000
to employ six additional teachers.
$1,000 to raise salaries of teachers
already employed and $62,500 for repairing
old buildings. We do not say
/these vappropriations ought not to
l^have been made for another institu.
tion, but we do say most emphatical- ,
: ly that if made, then Winthrop's ret
quest ior running expenses and to
employ some new teachers to take
"=ro rtf 150 new students next session
i ought not to have been denied.
It is clear to anyone that discrimination
was shown against the
one college established and maintain>
fid by the State for the education of
1 the women of the State. The approi
priation bill just passed carried ap-l
1 protins, directly and indirectly,
' of approximately $1,400,000 for 'the d
1 thrcefStato colleges for men with an L
[ enrolment rf approximately ji,700 c
?i!e carrying an appro- p
inly $308,694.60 for the o
llc?e for women with an
cf tppriximalely 1,100 (
her fairness and justness r
i of the State in such un. t
it of the State's college t
2
discrimination against L
town because Winthrop r
i any of her graduates p
and menas and finance h
s the othe rState col- U
leges had? It seems veyr plain that L
- the women of the State will have to j
look after thf interest of their State L
college in the Legislature if. their h
interests are to be cared for. I
The State has appropriated for the
1 Winthrop college plant in the thirty- ?
- five years of the life of the college k
- only $631,117.62, although the value |
2 of tlje plant is now $2,255,842.35, and ]
' yet it appropriated nearly $900,000 ton
1 build a new plant for one of the ,
State colleges for men in less than k
three years. i
We ask again, where is the jus'
tice in such treatment of Winthrop (
v college? The time has come for Win-1
ojthrop's friends and alumnae?andj
they number |ntany tnousunut?i<j
speak In no uncertain way.
We do not believe the people of
s South Carolina wish to see Winthrop
college crippled, and all that is necessary
Is for them to know the facts.
Winthrop college is flying value
j received to the State, We do not be,
lieve any one will deny that fact.
, There is nothing more vital to the
school? an dchildren of the State than
trained teachers, and Winthrdp is
I furnishing the main supply of these
trained teachers.
