Treasury Estimates It is not conceivable that Secretary of the Treasury Morgenthau would pad estimates of the deficit and the national publis debt in order to convince the senate that.

it ought to support the administration's tax bill, a measure calling for more than $800,000,000 in additional revenue. Instead, it would be much more reasonable to suspect that the cabinet officer's figures were too low rather than too high. So as Mr. Morganthau tells the senate finance committec that a deficit of nearly $6,000,000,000 is indicated and that the federal debt may go to $37,468,000,000 by June 30, when the current fiscal year closes, it taken that these figures are conservative, not exaggerated. For while the administration might go to extremes to get' the tax bill through congress and for the that it desperately needs the money, it could not be expected to create fanciful figures' on the debt and the deficit to make its argument convincing.

It happens that one of the compelling issues in the forthcoming campaign is the extravagance of the new deal administration. Critics of the administration constantly are emphasizing the menace of a mounting debt, long since at a record and the enormous deficits year by. year resulting from spending more money than was available in revenue. If, therefore, Mr. Morgenthau's figures were exaggerated, the treasury department would be putting new weapons into the hands of the administration's opponents, The new dedlers are far too astute as politicians to be caught making an error of that kind.

Not. even the desperate situation created by depletion of funds and the desire for more revenue could force that upon them. The tax measure, passed by the house, is grinding senators hard, 'especially the Democrats who 'are up. for Some members of the house, which passed the bill with an overwhelming majority, felt it, too. They know how the people back home feel about raising taxes in a campaign year.

But there seemed to be no way for the house: Democrats to turn. They were caught, and had to vote for the bill. national debt in excess of 000 after three years of the administration suggests that five years more of the new. deal would add many more billions to this obligation that ouly may be -paid, if, indeed, it ever is discharged, by taxpayers of the country, Carrying charges alone will run into billions every year, more, perhaps than the total cost of government. That is a picture for taxpayers and future 1axpayers to study.

Trade Balance In spite of the publicity which has poured forth as to how our export trade is. "growing" because of the reciprocal trade pacts entered into, the fact still remains that the imports from these reciprocal volume countries than has been increasing in greater, our exports to them. The' case of Cuba. is. a fair example.

Figures show that in our first year of lower tariff rates, with Cuba our imports from that country increased five times as fast as 0111' exports. At the same time, under the A. A. A. program our farmers were being paid out of the taxpayers' money to curtail the production of sugar beets, while trade arrangements, with Cuba brought in a great deal more foreign sugar.

In other words, the farmers were hired to produve less sugar so. that Cuban interests, supposedly controlled in part by wealthy New York financiers, could sell more sugar in the United States, There tis considerable discomfort, too, among Northwestern farmers because of the reciprocal arrangement with Canada which promises to penalize our grain and a linterests, who have already cut vi production, so that we can get more the Dominion, And it is either, that every nation posA favored nation agreement degree when we lower the in the rest of any one country. could benefit by any made with another nadoubtful when we the number of debt re already been re- ERE TO pudiated by our former associates in the World war. The fact that the reciprocal treaties bid fair to do 118 more harm than good is noW being generally recognized by those students of the forcign trade sitnation who are not already blinded by free trade theories, For example, George N. l'eck, once one of the administration's pillars and All 811- thority of agricultural matters and foreign trade, said recently in an address given in Philadelphia: "Foreigners have not paid debts nor have they increased their purchases of American goods.

Foreigners are putting 118 to work for them. "The United States is no longer feeding and clothing itself. We have taken American farmers out of forcign markets and put foreign farmers into American markets. "Under the present program agriculture has definitely lost ground in its fight for equality with industry. The loss of foreign markets has led to attempts at crop restriction at home while stimulating production abroad.

It is prolonging the farm crisis and the relief rolls." Maybe a little old-fashioned economic reasoning might be of some benefit in the present situation, A Menace To France French statesmen may not renlize it now, but the situation in Europe today constitutca a worse menace to Prance than to any other nation in the old world. Note. that Great Britain is drawing farther away from her former ally. That results directly from the. failure of the republie to join Britain in presenting a united front to the Fascist government of Italy for the curbing of the imperial designs of Signor Mussolini, The French wished to avoid trouble with Italy, fearing they might toss 11 Duce into the arins of Adolf Hitler, or vice versa.

Therefore they temporized as Great Britain and other nations insisted upon collective resistance to Italy's designs on Ethiopia. The power was available in the British and French navies and in their air squadrons. Strategic points were in the hands of Italy's opponents. Britain held Gibraltar and Malta, France and Britain together could have dominated the Mediterrunean, could have commanded the entire situation. The British are long headed, far seeing; the French are impulsive, short sighted.

The French are ambitious in a vague sort of way in the interest of world peace, which means primarily security for Franco. But they make errors that in time will cost far more than they now save, and the debt will be collected with interest compounded. Britain is drifting apart from. France. The French, following the World war, seized their opportunity to dominate continental polities.

It went to their heads. Not. for decades bad Franco occupied a towering position, But French statesmanship and diplomacy did not make the most of opporunities, which lay in cementing as a permanent thing the mutual interests of France and Great Britain. France never had an ally so powerful, so dependable as the one across the English channel. Sho may not be able to count on Britain again.

The British have long memories. And when the lid blows off again. in Europe and France finds herself beset by' powerful enemies, who certainly would not molest Great Britain, a neutral, she may look back to 1935-36 and see what the rest of the world sees now, that she made a mistake impossible to correct, The Cost Of Being Born Frank Albertson is A. motion picture actor. His age is not given in a news dispatch from Hollywood.

Yet the fact that he is alive in the fesh going about his screen duties is enough to establish that some time ago he definitely was ushered into the world, was, in short, born, All. the years Mr. Albertson has been pursuing the adventure of life the stork has not been paid, according to a Fergus Falls, physiciau, for its services on that important occasion of which, the actor knew nothing at the time and for which he never could have been in any senso responsible, But, now, well, the doetor just wondered if Mr. Albertson would care to settlo the bill, to pay the cost of being born, The good doctor never had sent the actor's parents a bill, and the stork, being, in the original meaning of the word, dumb, never said anything about it either. This may be unique in all history, Billions of babies have been born and billions more will be born.

It is doubted that any youngster ever paid for his own ticket at the time, or afterward, or even knew what his destination was. Verily, these are wonderful times. Something new every day. Children's Faces I see their childish faces Turned unto me each dayEager, wistful, poiguant, happy, Earnest, sad, or gay, Their searching eyes entreat me With a question undefned.

Be a child for just a day, I know that I could answer then Those burning eyes aglowIt is 80 long since I was young That I have ceased to know. -DOROTHEA CRANE From The Files Of The Bluefield Daily Telegraph FORTY TEARS AGO TODAY The Mercer County camp of Confederate Veterans was organized here. D. Kitts was moving his family from Richlands to Bluefield, A mass meeting was held at the corner of Princeton avenue and Tazewell street at which time the action of the elty council was endorsed in declaring the Emerson club and all similar institutions a nuisance.

THIRTY YEARS AGO TODAY The Great Council of Red Men of West Virginia were holding their annual convention in Bluefield. Charles Sealer, of Wilcoe and Mrs. Ella McD. Richardson, of Dorchester, were married at the Altamont hotel, this city. The Pocahontas Consolidated Coal company hadjust completed the largest block of coke ovens in the field.

TWENTY YEARS AGO TODAY The Ave-year-old son of Dr, and Mrs. H. Thompson was painfully injured when struck by an automobile. Fire damaged the plant of the Hines Lumber company in Princeton. The Bluefield Fair Grounds were leased to the Tri-State Fair association.

TEN YEARS AGO TODAY Mrs. W. D. Akers, well known Blueffeld resident, died at Mt Regis sanitorium. The Princeton Power company was granted authority by the Public Service commission to increase street car fares in Bluefield.

Mra. Wm. Sameth, formerly of Bluefield, died at the home of her daughter in New York, A Washington Bystander By HERBERT PLUMMER WASHINGTON WITH do Senators Barkley and Robinson picked a repeat performance at Philadelphia as keynoter and permanent chairman respectively, Senator Steiwer boning up for the keynoting Job at Cleveland, the senate certainly has a finger in the political ple this year, It had the same three to one statas on the house in '32. Dip deeper Into convention annals, and it develops that ever since popular election of senatore became a constitutional fact, senate prestige at convention time has been on the increase, Before that, when the senate's popular nicknume' was "the Millionaires' senators mostly did their convention 'stul off the platform. They were regarded as liability when either was working up quadrennial appeal to the "peepul." Looking at Robinson's convention record, that "permanent" chairman title seems peculiarly, fitting.

It will be his third shot at Beginning at San Franciaco, has been named for the Democratic convention pilot's task every other time' ever since. Between times, the late Senator Walsh of Montana took over. TINLESS a row breaks out over the two-thirds rule, there is no prospect of great combat at Philadelphia, Robinson, Barkley, too, for that matter, are apt to wait until after the Republicans have done their job at Cleveland to start actual draftlug of their. convention speeches. There is no hoed for hurry, President Roosevelt's speeches at Baltimore and New York that he also is deferring the blue-printing of affirmative campaign until the Republicans have made their issues at Cleveland.

That might account for the rather mild tone to be detected in those addresses. MR. launched ROOSEVELT said, re-election back at campaign the time in he a night message to congress, that there would be "110 retreat" on his part. He said much the same thing at Baltimore and New York. At New York particularly in his conclusion he talked "economic and social philosopby." None would quarrel with the objectives of that philosophy as the president stated them, probably, When it comes to translating philosophy.

into legislativo proposals, however, a 'ditferent situation presents itself. Implication of Mr. Roosevelt's campaign speeches to date is that he does. not propose 'to present his plans In detail, to say just how he will go about worktng out his "philosophy. of the 1936 America." until he has had a look at what his opposition has to say.

IN NEW YORK By GEORGE ROSS New York, May Nichols, the "Abie's. Irish Rose" lady who ran an Inter-racial 1'0- mance up into, a national institution, is back in town with another show and the wags are saying that we are in again for another Ave-year spell. Her new comedy is entitled "Pre-Honey-which de just about what Able and Rosie up to in the old and will not rock 'the world. So the critics who put "Able" the griddle when it originally arrived, crossed their fingers In "covering" this one and. implied that they were helpless in predicting a hasty end for any play in which Mias Nichols ie concerned.

They have reason to be cagey about this lady playwright who has earned five million dollars out -of plays that were coudemned by the haughtier cognoscenti. For on Broadway, Anne Nichols is known as one of the shrewdest operators of shows. She peddled "Able" to every theatrical producer in town and every manager promptly turned it down. So the. determined Miss Nichols put it on herself, hired the actors, handled the business details, Ared and re-hired, dodged the creditors until "Able's Irish Rose" caught That on.

WAS. fourteen years ago Robert Benchley, commenting upon, the Nichols' work In print, remarked, "America's Favorite Comedy -God Forbid." Immune to insults, Miss Nichols kept it going and as far as she knows, It is still running, after fourteen years, in. Brussels and Berlin. So it you find us mentioning "Pre-Honeymoon" 88 one of Broadway's stand-bys in 1945, you will understand that Anne Nichols is back in town. Doris Dudley got into the local news again the' other day when she shot herselt at Pulitzer Prize Winner Sidney Kingsley's apartment.

Take Spider Kelly's word for it that Jimmy Cromwell, of Doris Duke, kuows bow to handle his "dukes."

Jimmy Cromwell is one of them. It Jimmy had goue in for professional boxing, I think he could have fought his way to a championship in his weight division.

DECENTRALIZING: The state department did not similariy fall down on its publicity job announcing the ratification of the Canadian treaty.
