Where the Money Goes: At least a part of the large increase in government expenditures can be accounted for when consideration is given to the fact that since March 4, 1933, 83. new government agencies have been created by law; 40 new executive agencies were created by executive order and 112 new investigating, advisory and administrative agencies were created. The functions of these units of government cover practically every activity, their duties so overlap that it is difficult to find one agency exercising exclusive jurisdiction over any single problem. A Joint Congressional Committee, a Senate Committee and an Advisory Conflhittee oppointed by tha President are trying to find out what it is all about« The employees of most all of these new units of government were appointed without regard to civil service. C. C. C. s The House of Representatives will within the ne*t few days, take up H. R. 6551, making the C. C. C. a permanent agency of government, with an authorized strength of 300,- 000, a reduction of 50,000 from present authorized strength. Opposition to such reduction in personnel is pec ted. Government Bonds: The sensational decrease in the market price of government long-term bonds is giving Treasury Department officials something to think about and is causing considerable apprehension in Congress, During the month of March, the Treasury purchased about one hundred twentymillion dollars worth of its own bonds in an effort to keep the price from falling below par. It is said that nearly one billion dollars was clipped from the value of the bonds by price decline between December 8, 1936 and April 1, 1937. Vacationing: When the cat's away, the mice will play. The President is on another vacation, this time a fishing expedition in the Gulf of Mexico. What is Congress doing in his absence? The answer is "practically nothing." What did they do when the" President was on his last vacation al couple of weeks ago? The answer is the same.
