Federal Credit Structure Cause
For Worry
Serious thinking members—both
Democrats and Republicans, seem
to agree that the “economy” talk is
not a political issue now. They
seem to agree that the federal
credit structure is the real cause
for worry. They believe now that
the two big pieces of legislation
for which members are waiting are
not half so important today as is
the credit situation in our land.
The Supreme Court bill and the
government reorganization bill
may continue to be the major pieces
of legislation which will hold Con
gress in session until next fall, but
the President’s message telling
the legislative branch of the gov
ernment that it haH its duty to
perform on cutting expenditures
has suddenly awakened a lot of
members who have been indifferent
to expenditures of billions of dol
lars from the federal treasury.
Members are suddenly talking
about the outstanding government
securities amounting to around 35
billion dollars not even taking into
consideration the HOLC, Federal
Land Rank and other bonds. They
arc worrying over the gold and
silver situation. They wonder how
long we can continue to buy the
gold and silver which foreigners
are bringing to us. They know
that the World price for gold is $20
an ounce and that we pay the for
eigners $35 an ounce for it. They
know that the foreigners take our
paper money for this gold and
that many of them buy our govern
ment securities and sell them at
big profit and go back home for
more gold to sell us. They also
know that Russiu has developed
new mines and is taking out the
gold ore at a price of three dollars
a ton. How much gold the foreign
ers have in sight, no one knows,
hut members know that Uncle Sam
has to keep on buying this gold and
silver. How long we can continue
doing this is problematical.
Time and again members on both
sides ask what will happen to our
hanking structure if government

securities go down ten or fifteen
points. They know the Federal Re
serve Bank is buying these govern
ment bonds and that the govern
ment is doing everything possible
to hold up the price. But they
know that there have been big sales
of government bonds and that most
banks hold the largest percentage
of these bonds. That all of the
resources of the government are at
work to stabilize the price of gov
ernment securities is known and
assurances are given by bank ex
perts that these securities will not
go below par.
Byt what is worrying some of
these people is that new money will
have to he printed and they fear
inflation is very close; therefore,
much of the worry; therefore, that
sudden demand by members of both
parties for elimination of useless
appropriations. That too, is the
reason for so much prediction that
when a new tax bill is demanded
there will be a demand for the “last
hill” tax—meaning a general sales
tax. Time and again members in
dicate that the tax on lower in
comes will he asked for. All of
which indicates that no matter
how much the government spends,
the man in the street or the man
with the small income—the ordin
ary consumer, will pay the bill.
Majority Party Fight
Which branch of our government
is to blame for gigantic useless ex
penditures? It was debated on the
floor of the House. Congressman
Dies, a Democrat of Texas who
brought on himself the enmity of
the administration for his resolu
tion against sitdown strikes, was
tongue-lashing the House for use
less expenditures. Suddenly John
O’Connor, democrat of New York,
who was defeated by the southern
bloc for majority leadership, asked
the Texan not to blame the legisla
tive branch for all of the spending.
He called attention to the fact that
much of the spending legislation
was sent to the legislative branch
from the executive branch. Here
we have a real fight among the
majority party. There are sore
spots left from the fight for floor
leadership—an echo of the anti
lynching bill debate, and also, some
suggestion that some members may
have spoken out of turn on subjects
which may have embarrassed the
administration.
Big Industries Not Hit
There are three gigantic indus
tries that .have not yet been touched
hard by the federal government.
They are the international banking
institutions—the motion picture in
dustry and the widespread liquor
industry.
F.xempt Liquor From Drug Bill
The Copeland Drug Bill is in
committee, and in the “Pure Food”
section of that bill, liquor is ex
empted. The big guess is that, the
gigantic black strap molasses trust
may have had something to do in
exempting liquor from the pure
food section of the proposed legis
lation.

STORM CAUSES DAMAGE
Beginning Friday night, April 23rd, and continuing through
to the following Monday morning, we experienced a severe storm
consisting of rain, sleet and heavy wet snow accompanied by a high
velocity wind ranging from 40 to 60 miles per hour.
•
In the Eastern section of our Division, sleet and wet snow
collected on the wires until they were 5 inches in diameter, which
represents many tons of weight. This, together with the high
wind tore down poles, wires, and cross arms on many miles of line
and distribution systems within the towns. Men and materials
were rushed to the affected area; however, their progress was
hampered by mud, and snow drifts two to eight feet deep. The
fact that the storm was preceded by two days of heavy rain created
a condition that made the country roads almost impassable. It
was necessary to use teams, wagons and tractors for transporta
tion purposes. In many cases, it was necessary to use six and
eight head of horses on one wagon or to use tractors to help pull a»
truck, all of which created a delay and expenditure well up in the
thousands of dollars.
Fourteen towns in our Division were intermittently without
service. Everything was done in order to restore service as soon
as possible and we want to take this opportunity to thank our
customers for their kind attitude during such an emergency.
By reason of an abundant amount of moisture accompanying
the storm, we found the farmers and business men highly elated
over the prospects of a crop. While we were put to an enormous
amount of expense and service interruptions, all of us may be well
compensated for the inconvenience and expense by the moisture
and prospects which we believe to be the forerunner of a bountiful
harvest.
