September or Octoâ€" SAYS GOVERNMENT COST IN U. S. LOW The American people aren‘t in such bad shape after all, so far as their cerned, David Lawrence, Washington observer, says. Writing in the Elks Magazine, Mr. Lawrence declares that ~the â€"annual cost of government in this country â€"local, state and federalâ€"is about $12,000,000,000 which is about 13 per cent of our national income of $90,â€" 000,000,000. "Over in Great Britain," he says, "the annual income is estimâ€" ated to be about $20,000,000,000, and taxation takes approximately 22 per cent â€"of â€"that total. â€"France exacts from her people 33 per cent of her national income for governmental exâ€" penses and obligations. © Expenses Not Large Compared With Those of European Nations, Claim "A huge amount of the annual cost of government abroad is payment of sider that Great Britain has a total debt of . approximately $37,000,000,â€" 000, while France has close to $19,â€" 000,000,000 to pay, the existing debt ‘of â€"$16,500,000,000 â€"of â€"â€"the United Slt_lstes is a relatively small item after all. * * > £ Reduce National Debt "But it wouldn‘t be $16,500,000,000 if we hadn‘t insited on curtailing it by huge slices every year. It came down from a total of $29,000,000,000 in war days. As av~consequence of that drastic curtailment, the Ameriâ€" can government has unexampled creâ€" dit not only with our own people but with the investors of the entire world. "And if this credit were not such as to command the lowest possible money rate when we borrow from the public, the whole structure of inâ€" terest rates in America would have been affected." > With the exercise of a reasonable amount of economy, and perhaps the addition here and there of a few inâ€" direct taxes in the next five years, the treasury will come out of the depression in almost as strong a poâ€" gition as it entered the present year, Mr, Lawrence says . Public Service Co. to Get Mammoth Forging The largest single forging ever made in the United States, a giant generator rotor, is at present underâ€" going rigid tests at the manufacturâ€" et‘s plant before being shipped to Waukegan to be used in the 115,000 kilowatt turboâ€"generating unit now under construction at the Public Servâ€" ice plant on the north flats, north of Waukegan. Theâ€"generator, of which the rotor is the rotating part, will be th:d largest single winding unit ever made. P * Thursday, July 16, 1981
