Rankin Spoke
Here Saturday
speaking at a Republican rallv held
îriibbv Lturdav in Moose haU
Mr Rankin attacked at some
length what he termed the extra^
gant and wasteful ^pending of the
D^rnorratir^ufministratinn anHha^pH
ijemocraiic aamimstrauon ana based
his statements on figues he quoted
from an article in the October num
ber of Redbook Magazine, which
article consisted of an interview
given by Senator Harry F. Byrd
senator from Virginia and one of,
the outstanding Democratic sena
tors m the U. S. senate. Mr. Ran
kins address consisted largely of,
quotations from that interview
which appeared in the magazine
under the title, "What We Can Do
to End Waste in Government."
Millions Wasted
Rankin stressed the many mil-;
lions of dollars that arc boing
wasted annually by an expanding
bureaucracy and, again quoting
Senator Byrd, said that today there
are about three million federal em
ployees and "I would begin by dis
missing half of the civilian employ
ees on the Federal payrolls" said
Byrd. "This could be done without
undue impairment in the services to
the public. In 1935, there were 719,
440 federal pmnlnveee tndav there
are three mUhon includmg nearW
500.000 in foreign countnes In
1935, there were approximately 190

Quoting .he Virginia senator »ur- !
That the average working man
will spend nine years of his life
working for nothing was the some
what startling statement made by
William R. (Barney) Rankin while
ther, Mr. Rankin read: "In 1935, we 1
collected $2,672,000,000 in taxes; in
collect nea'rly 5 *14^illion^doli^rs'for
that purpose"
Senator^Bvrd pointed out as
quoted bv Mr Rankin how alî' this
tremendous spending of the present
administration must he raised h»
fhe pe?oleof the natfcn^Sd that
much of it comes out of the pockets I
and through the sweat of the labor
ing man.
Explains Nine Year Remark I
And in that connection was where
Byrd made his statement that the
average workingman of today would
work nine years for nothing to pay
present income and other taxes. Mr.
Rankin quoted the Virginia senator
further, as follows -
"Carrying the figures further it
means that he (the workingman)
works 312 hours each year without
' in his lifetime expectancy of 47
years of work (Government figures
show 47 years as the average life
time working expectancy), it means,
at the present rate of Government
spending, that the average work
ingman in an industry in this coun
try spends more than nine years
of his working lifetime—working to
support, among other things, 1,500,
000 civilian employees not needed
on Federal payrolls.
"There is something shocking ini
a tax program that compels a wage
earner to surrender the fruits of his
labor six hours each week for every;
week of his lifetime to support a
wasteful government," said Senator
Byrd, in the interview that was,
quoted by Rankin.
Mr. Rankin argued thit^bëôiüse
of the heavy tax burden a lifting)
of that burden should be made
just as soon as the federal budget
can be balanced, and that there'
should be an end to deficit spend
ing in order to lessen the dangers
of inflation.
When questioned about his stand
in respect to the Hungry Horse
dam. Mr. Rankin said inasmuch as
he is strongly in favor of the dc
velopmcnt of both the Columbia and
Missouri valleys and inasmuch as
the Hungry Horse project is a part

Refers to Opponent's Record
Mr. Rankin made reference to his
opponent's record in congress, and
showed by a reference to the offi
cial record that Congressman Mans
field had voted for every bill calling
for the expenditure of money asked
for by the Democratic administra
tion. Rankin quoted Mansfield's
voting record further wherein he
showed it to be quite erratic and
said that was due to Mansfield's
attempt to play politics with his
vote in an attempt to satisfy cer
tain backing of his.
During his remarks Mr. Rankin
discussed the Missouri Valley and
Columbia Valley projects and stated
he was strongly for them but they
should be developed under army
and reclamation bureau engineers.
He was strongly opposed to estab
lishing an "authority" that would
largely take away the independence
of the people of the state con
cerned. He said the proposed MVA
was one of the finest examples of
a Soyietized project he had ever

In the second half the Lions tigh

on even terms for a large portion

MAIL BOXES NOT TO
BE USED AS TARGETS
A number of complaints have
been received from patrons on the
Star Route regarding the shooting
of mail baxes.
This practice seems to show a
very poor training in the use of
firearms, the respect
property and is also a very dan-1
gerous habit. It would seem that
anyone old enough to carry and
shoot firearms should be old enough
to realize that this practice is an
offense punishable by law', and
sooner or later they will have to
pay the penalty.
For your own good and for the
safety of others do not use mail
boxes for targets.
