Lincoln Day Dinner Crowd Hears Talk By Mrs. Robert Taft Men & women VIPs in formal dress shaking hands; Woman speaks “Day by day the mortgage on our children’s future is growing larger. The most taxed group in a much taxed country is our children. Every day the New Deal is piling up new bills against them. And every night when we tuck them into bed they owe 11 million dollars more than when they got up in the morning. We used to say enviously, ‘Ah youth the world is yours’, but now the New Deal says, ‘Oh No’, the world is ours. We’ll squeeze it dry and walk out on the next generation. They can pay the check.” Tuxedoes; Economics; 1940 Republican Presidential Campaign; Debts; Future Generations; Depression;
