That is one side of the picture and it fa a lark one. Hava government officials today the same lack or all sense of responsibility to the thrifty people who buy front them the paper promises of government? There is ne national debt, they say.

But there is another side. I received this wsek a letter from man known throughout America for his unflinching courage. Speaking with the authority ot high position in the life insurance world he said. The moral responsibility of insurance officials is staggering." I am certain that he is sot going to wash his hands and play golf in Bermuda and say it is none of his business if insurance policies are paid in cigar coupons. I believe he will be heard and listened to when he says government debt and a balanced budget is his business and his company's business.

I HAVE little doubt that the government still has sufficient resources to pay the present debt in honest dollars But I know that every billion now added to that debt makes all previous billions less safe, and your deposits and your insurance policy less safe. President Roosevelt said this very thing not so long ago. And if we fight in Europe again, the cost of that war, added to our present debt, will probably wipe out everything. But whether actual inflation comes in the form of rapidly rising commodity prices or not. it has already come to thrifty people.

When deposits which formerly paid 4 per cent now pay only 2 or 1 per cent due to "cheap money" policies and an unbalanced budget, that depositor. In terms of his savings, has seen the cost of his living double or quadruple. At 1 per cent it now takes the Income of $400 to buy a $4 pair of shoes which he formerly bought with the income of $100. The same is true with respect to life Insurance paid his widow. When she Invests it, what does she get? It Is high time for insurance directors, bank officers, as well as high officials In Washington to reread the parable of the faithless steward: To whomsoever much is given, of him shall be much Copyright, 1939.

PETTENG1LL 'The Gentleman from Indiana IF TOUR bank some day paid off your deposit with cigar coupons would you think its directors had discharged their responsibility to you? I am led to ask this because some bankers appear to consider that to be the yardstick of their responsibility, financial and moral. I recently talked with the president ef one of the largest banks in this country- I Mid, -How long can the Federal government go on increasing its debt?" This was i answer: "No one knows when the breaking point of government credit will be reached.

But there is nothing we can do about it. We are helpless. The government issues and controls the money with which it will pay its bonds when they mature. It also makes that money a legal tender with which all other debts are paid. Government bonds will be paid with some kind of money.

If that money is cigar coupons we will use thoue same cigar coupons to pay our depositors. A little later I received a letter from a woman who had gone to her local bank before the crash with $3,500, the savings of years. The bank recommended, this and that. She bought them. They went sour.

This woman has nothing more to lose. It dees no good to tell her that the bank did not guarantee her investments. Nor that she might have looked into the responsibility of the issuers of the bonds herself. Nor that the bank lost, too, on the same issues. All these are technicalities to her.

She knows one thing only. Her savings are gone, her youth is gone. She had received cigar coupons. My mind went back to the big banker In the big city. Will his depositors be satisfied with cigar coupons? I think not.

I BELIEVE it was Justice Stone of the Supreme Court of the United States who pointed out a few years ago that the thing really rotten in American life Is the death of a sense of moral responsibility.

George Bittner, 142 K.

High St Bound Brook, made the charge claiming he paid Maura $140 to pay off a finance company. In the testimony it was revealed Bittner purchased a used car in April paying $35 down and being allowed $50 on a trade In. Balance was $140 plus $40 carrying charges for one year. A few days later. Bittner paid Maura $149 to pay the finance company, agreeing to pay any cancellation fee that might be necessary.

Bittner testified he received on June 30 a notice from the finance company asking for second payment. He then investigated and was told the contract had not been cancelled. Maura, represented by Warren J. Lynch, claimed the company wanted $30 to cancel the contract and that he had argued until charge had been reduced to $15. He hadn't paid the $140, he claimed, because it would make Bittner liable for the full $180.

Judge DeMesa postponed the case until Saturday suggesting the parties try to come to an agreement in the meantime.
