(Continued from page 1.)
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.
