Story of the Faithless Trustee,

Can It Possibl

By JOAN

y Be Uncle Sam?

T. FLYNN

Times Special Writer NEW YORK, Nov. 22.-—This is the story of the Faithless Trustee.

Once upon a time there was a

could never save enough money to one day he said to the poor man: “I think it is high time you made some provision to care for your=self when you are too old to work. I therefore suggest to you that you come to me every month and give me 2 cents out of every dollar you earn. “Keep this up until you are 65 years old and then I will start paying vou a sum of money each month which at least partly will care for you.” This seemed to please the poor man. But there was one point on which he was not clear. “What,” he asked, “will you do do with the 2 cents I give you out of each dollar? Who will that belong to and how will you protect in» “Well,” said the Great Good Man, “that money will belong to you. Tt will all be put into my hands. We will call it a ‘reserve’ and it will be available for you when it is needed.” This satisfied the poor man and

? lhe proceeded to pay his money ers | each month faithfully. He kept it

up for 30 years. By that time the money with the interest agreed on, amounted to quite a few hundred dollars. Then the time came for the Great Good Man to pay some of this reserve to the poor man. But when the poor man called for his money the Great Man said he did not have it. “But what has become of it?” the poor man asked. His rich friend told him sorrowfully that he had spent it all; that he had borrowed it himself and used it to pay his own bills and that now it was all gone.

The poor man told the tale to the

poor worker whose hard lot excited

the sympathy of a Great and Good Man, He saw that the poor man

take care of him

in his old age. So

world and the world promptly branded the Great and Good Man as the Faithless Trustee. Now millions of poor men this year have handed their Great and

Good Friend, Uncle Sam, some 385 million dollars. It is supposed to be in a “reserve” against the day when the poor man may heed it for their old age. Uncle Sam has loaned the money. He has loaned it to himself and he has spent it already. It didn’t last long. If the poor men keep this up, in 40 years they will have handed to Uncle Sam the gigantic sum of 40 billion dollars. And Uncle Sam will have spent it all=every last eent of it. He will still call it a “reserve.” But it will be a reserve only in a Pickwickian sense. The money will be Lowy at kind of a trustee does that make Uncle Sam? Of course Uncle Sam may think he will never be broke and that he can always dig it up if he has to. But can he? Could he dig up two or three billion now in addition to all the other things he must dig up! And how would he dig it up? And out of whom? Forty years from now, when he owes the old age fund 40 billion which he has spent, the poor men will go to him for it. He will tell them not to worry. He hasn't got the money, but he can raise it. All he has to do is tax. “But whom will you tax?” the poor man will ask. But we need not record the answer as it is to funny.
