MORE 'AMOS', LESS 'ANDY'
NEEDED IN GOVERNMENT
One of the laugh-maldng gaga of
the famous Amos V Andy radio team
has been Andy'a ha/bit of going in for
vast imaginative financial flights, in
which he mutters, "One millon, two
million, five million," and so on, in
figuring impossible profits on some
? fantastic scheme.
Many present-day plans presented
to long-suffering citixet&Tand taxpay
ers by hlghnpreasure politicians, are
reminiscent of Andy. * The public of
ficials talE of one billion, five billion,
or ten billion dollars without regard
for the sources from which the mon
ey is to come. They issue bonds ? and
hope that public treasuries will be
able to meet them when they fall
due. Like Andy, they look forward
to a rosy future in which dollars will
grow on trees, and budgetary difficul
ties will be a thing of the past.
It is easy for those who hold com
fortable governmental jobs, and are
spending money that belongs to
.someone else, to figure in millions
and billions. But the people, like
Andy's creditors, are becoming skep
tical. Tlhey know that political ex
travagances mean that taxes must
soa;r in the future ? they are beginning
to realize that means that business
and individuals will have less mor.ey
with which to build factories and
homeR and employ labor, and buy the
articles commerce and agriculture
must sell if they are to aurvive. They
begin to understand that money is di
verted from productive business when
investors are afraid of extortionate
taxes and hide their money in tax
free government bonds where it does
nothing to keep the machiney of
trade in motion.
Too many of us think of those bil
lions as wo think of the far planets?
they seem to have nothing to do with
us. We should think of them as Ibar
riers to ermployment, to industrial ex
pansion, to recovery. It is a histori
cal fact that excessively expensive
government is the bw*t ally of de
pression.
Yes! We do need more 'Amos' and
less 'Andy' in every division of gov
ernment.
Epigrams by Lord Dewar, famed
Scotch dkvtiller: "I^ove is a sea of
emotion entirely surrounded by ex
pense." "Clothes make" The women
and break the men." "Respectability
is a state of never being caught doing
anything which gives you pleasure."
A tall story from Kentucky tells of
a dog which drank from an open ves
sel a quantity of nttroglycerlne In
tended to be used in "shooting" an
oil well. Workmen who observed the
Animal rushed to cover as the loaded
dog chased a rabbit, leaped down a
, bank and exploded.
THE PROBLEM OF PLENTY
The Year-Book of Agriculutral Co
operation shows a progressive and
far-sighted spirit when it says: "Our
age is witnessing the extraordinary
Spectacle of aw orld fleeing from
plenty. It is for the cooperative or
ganizations to show that they can
face plenty and that their ideal of
social justice is a light by which they
can deal out plenty with an even
hand, so that it neither (piles up for
want of claimants nor ceasea for lack
of recompense to those from whose
labor it has sprung."
It has often been said that tho
troubles of the present lie in the fact
that the machinery of distribution has
been inferior to the machinery of pro
duction. There is no lack of peoplo
who want wheat, cotton, fruit, diary
products and all the other things our
farmers raise ? and these people con
stitute a vast market which tho pro
gressive cooperatives aro trying tj
reach. The cooperatives aro not
seeking to obtain extortionate prices
? they are seeking fair prices that ,
will bring the producer a reasonable
profit and allow him to sell tho max
imum amount to the consumer.
The mere routine of buying and
selling is among the least of cooper
ative activities. Cooperatives are
great educational institutions, sa far
as both their members and the pub
lic are concerned. They are going
forward on firm ground, meeting
and grappling with great social and
economic problems. And they aro
making headway.
A BROKEN DOWN HORSE
Two years ago a wholesale grocer
of Benton, 111., took a fancy to a
supposedly broken down race horse
named Indian Runner and paid $3,000
for him. Maybe it was a mere whim J
or a gambler's hunch which caused
the grocer, D. A. Woods, to make an
investment which most turfmen
would have considered unspeakably
foolish. But see what happened.
After giving Indian Runner good
care and a few weeks of rest Woods
entered him at Lincoln Fields, where
he broke the track record in his first
tace. Since then he has virtually
monotpolized the handicaip stakes in
the West.
On the 4th of July he won for the
second consecutive year tho Stars,
and Stripes handicap at Arlington
Park where he has also won the
Inaugural handicap the last two
years. His total winnings to date
have been $45,000; not a bad return
on a $8,000 investment. And ho isn't
finished yet.
All of "which goes to confirm tho
old saying that you can't tell by
merely looking how far a frog can
Jump or how fast a horse can run.
California /points with pride to the |
fact that 99 out of every 100 speeders
haled into court in that state are con
victed. Justice is tempered with
mercy, however, as about 20 per cent
of those found guilty are given sus
pended sentences or placed on probat- [
ion.
