THE PUBLIC PAYS
Your Taxes and publican Extid'vagance
When You Groan Under The Burden Of Taxes
IR.evKCtH&e'i
That the deficit at the end of the last two years of Hooverism is around four billion dol
lars—the greatest in peace time history.
That this huge deficit was not born overnight but the performances of the past two years
” have wiped out previous gains in the way of reducing our national debt and have brought
it to the astounding total of nearly twenty billion dollars.
T^entetuCet
That although Republicans preached economy in 1920 and 1924, and promised highest j
efficiency at lowest cost in 1928, government bills have mounted steadily. Hooverism cost
the taxpayers $4,320,000,000 in 1930-31; over $5,000,010,000 in 1931-32.
That the alibi of veterans’ bonus and unemployed relief cannot explain tripled expenses
in the Department of Agriculture in the last five years; nor a jump of $15,000,000 in the
Post Office deficit, $5,000,000 in the Department of Justice; nor why the Hoover Farm
Board and its subsidiaries spend over $5,000,000 a year in salaries; nor why the Depart
ment of Commerce had to erect a palatial $17,500,000 building for its tariff-shrunken
trade.
That although it was clear that our chief source of revenue, income taxes, would drop
seriously and retrenchment was the watchword in every home and business, government
spending kept merrily on at $5,000,000 a day more than income.
That the Seventy-first Congress with a big Republican majority was in session from
December 1930 until March 1931. It passed the appropriations which swelled the deficit.
But it made no attempt to cut expenses or balance the budget.
That although President Hoover could have called a special session of the Seventy-second
Congress during the Summer or Autumn of 1931 to deal with the financial scare he
refused to take action in spite of urgent appeals.
^e*KMt6z'i
That a balanced budget as well as reconstruction plans had to await a Democratic
majority in the House where all revenue measures must originate.
That Republican leadership has brought us to the verge of bankruptcy.
That “Hoover economy” means hardest economy in every household to save money, to
pay the taxes, to pay for the deficit that Hoover built.
