The Alexander Hamilton Institute estimates are about as comprehensive as any. They showed a total of unemployed in the United States in August of this year at 13,478,000 compared with an average for 1932 of 14,825^000. TNote, first of all, that the 1932 figfor example, he thundered: "Last year ^ alone $3,330,004,000 worth of goods from foreign factor« ies and farms poured into the United States. Was any of this money spent in the cities and villages of Illinois? Indeed not!" s The correct ahswer to-his question was: • - Indeed, yes.M ores are an average for the year and do not represent "the worst"; next that hundreds of thousands if not millions have been returned to work since j Exports Larger August of t h i s y e a r . In September c f l last year, for example, the institute's In the first place his figures wera fiSB^?nnn unemployed was down to wrong. The total was $3,083,000,000. 8,843,000. - | But that is of small consequence along Then turn for a moment to the side of the fact that he fail°ed to Institute s figures on the employed mention that the United Stat«-B shipafter all they are as significant as ped abroad during the same year from those for the unemployed. It is estimated that in August of this year mmrn its factories and farms $3,350,000,000 of goods. American standard of living is higher than it would be if foreign gooas were barred from this country and--as would necessarily have to be the case -- the United Staets ceased shipping its goods abroad. Times More Prosperous This candidate for the Senate preaching his doctrine of economic ignorance, failed to te)l his audience that while imports of $3,000,000,000 in i were the largest since 1930, last year was also the most prosperous year for this country since 1930. He failed to mention that imports in 1929, the peak year for American prosperity, were $4,399,361,000, also a peak for imports. Nor did he reveal that in 1932, when economic activity in this country was close to a standstill, imports were at the lowest level, $1,300,000,000. When politicians foster economic ignorance they endanger the very foundations of democracy. $ Today's Thoug^ ^ High wages with low prices lead to greater prosperity. -- Lammont du Pont. Mrs. F. J.

CITY COUNCIL OF McHENRY. • 24 Sabscribs tor Tb» 1 VOTE DEMOCRATIC THE TRUTH ' • About v>'•*'• Old Age Pensions - T In Illinois The Republican Organization in McHenry County has caused to be published in the newspapers of the county a political advertisement which reads in part as follows: - "linger the present Oeotncratlc Horner Administration in Illinois it costs 25% for the job holders who administer the old age pension law. !'2B% of the money paid by the people of Illinois - - - • for -old age pensions goes to the payrollers." The above charges are such deliberate- falsehoods thait they can not go unchallenged or unanswered. The truth is that instead of costing 25% to administer the Old Age Pension Act, the actual cost is only 5.31%. ^ The following letter from Mr. John C. Weigel, Acting Superintendent of Old Age Assistance, to Representative Thos. A. Bolger thoroughly disproves the false charges that have been made regarding the cost of Old Age Pension Administration: ^ • October «, im Hon. Thomas A. Bolger State Representative McHenry, Illinois . Dear Representative Bolger: Following up your telephone conversation; ! am giving you herewith the data on expenditures made by the Division of old Age Assistance for the entire fiscal year beginning July 1, 1937 through June 30, 1938. " The total of expenditures made^ from State and Fe eral funds for the fiscal year was $26,246,592.52. This total expenditure covers all assistance paid, .all payments made , on burial clalmB and all items of administration. The break-down of this large sum is as follows: " , : :a) Administrative expense $1,393,238.38 b) Burial payments, c) Assistance payments Grand Total Expenditures ..... 135.626.14 24,717,728.00 & $26,246,592.62 ' .*f The administrative expense, which includes all salaries, office expenses, travel, operation, repairs and equipment, totalled $1,393,238.38, which is 5.31% of the ; » total sum expended during the entire year of $26,246,592.52. The administrative expense total $1,393,238.38 covers : the entire cost of operating the Central office in Spring- . •field, the cost of operating the Central office in Ppringpartments of Public Welfare and the cost of operating the Old Age AssisUace Service in Cook County. Very truly yours, . 'JOHN C. WEIGEL Administrative Assistant Acting Superintendent. It will be noted from Mr. Weigel's letter that the total administrative expense (5.31%), covers not only the cost of operating the Central Office in Springfield, but also the cost of operating all the County Departments of Public Welfare in the State including McHenry County. Certainly it cannot be charged that the County Superintendent of Public Welfare in this county and her staff are "payrollers" of the Democratic Horner Administration. The Republican high command must, indeed, be desperatie when they will resort to such deliberate falsehoods in order to deceive the voters. Their false charges about the Old Age Pension administration are only typical of the methods they are using and the statements they are making on the other issues of the campaign. All fair, open minded voters, regardless of party affiliations, resent such campaign tactics and will further Show their resentment by rebuking those responsible at the election, November 8th. They will teach them the lesson that it is better politics to tell the truth---even in a political campaign. v Political Advertisement SCOTT W.
