The President told members that he wants to start cutting wherever possible but when he suggested n cut of $220,000,000 in roads, he met opposition. Most everybody ad mits we should start cutting, but no one will suggest or agree to start cutting on any particular gov ernment activity. There is a gen eral feeling that a uniform cut of 20 per cent in all activities would pass the House. But the Army and Navy won’t stand for any cuts in their appropriations. So when and where the cuts are to start seems to be a problem. Departments which do overlapping work don’t want any cuts in their activities. 121 Millions Forgotten There are $121,842,955.26 worth of Uncle Sam’s obligations out standing which are matured and on which we have quit paying interest. All of these are payable at par on demand. They include some postal savings bonds, first, second, third, fourth Liberty bonds, Victory notes, ‘etc. Somebody has these govern ment certificates. They are either buried, lost, or just forgotten in safety deposit boxes or in storage somewhere. Anyway Uncle Sam isn’t paying interest on them, but is willing to pay in full if holders present them for payment.
