Budget-Balancer No. 1
—The Housewife
By RAYMOND PITCAIRN
National Chairman
Sentinels of the Republic —...
If our political spendthrifts really
want to learn how to balance their
budgets let them turn to the average
American housewife.
She’s Budget-Balancer No. 1.
She has to be. Unlike the newer
economists in public office she cannot
spend two dollars for every dollar she
takes in, and blandly load the differ
ence on the public. She has to cut her
expenditures to fit whatever income a
pay envelope may afford.
Thais why those “indirect" taxes
which boost the family food bill, the
family rent bill, the family bills for
clothing and for everything else she
buys, mean so much to her. No matter
on whom the tax-creators anil tax
eaters attempt to load the cost, the bill
is finally staid oat at her thin purse.
How deeply do th* billions squandered
by office- holders during recent years
cut into ths average housewife's oper
ating funds?
Well, resshreh workers have estimated
that the majority of taxes collected by
government are passed on to the public
in the form of Increased prices—and
that, so disguised, they consume one
dollar out of every five which finely its
way into the family pocketbook, yy
Actually, then, the average housefly
faces a dual responsibility—first^^
conserve the contents of the family
purse, and, second, to demand that
politicians cease the reckless squander
ing and piling on of taxes which rob
her of the benefits of her sacrifices
and economies.
In the overwhelming majority of
American families she has succeeded
tn balancing her own budget. Now she
is insisting that the politicians co
operate by learning to balance theirs.

Know Your Language

THE combination “equally as"
■ frequently crops up in present
day writing and conversation. It is
never good English. Do not say,
“Their suggestion seems equally as
good as yours.” Say, “Their sug

“Their suggestion and yours seem
equally good.”

Our word “supercilious,” mean
ing haughtily contemptuous or dis
dainful, comes down to us from
“superciliosus”, a Latin word mean
ing, literally, “eyebrowish.” The
Romans recognized that raising the
eyebrows was a characteristic habit
of the haughty, arrogant man; so
they- combined their words “super”
(over) and "cilium” (eyebrow) to
form “supercilium.” meaning
"pride," and "supercUiMus,” mean,
