Blanton Attacks Pennsylvanian Spending in Congress
Congressman Blanton rebukes the idea of spending public money to boost Washington’s fortunes while praising local Texas philanthropy. He contrasts state attitudes toward spending with Pennsylvania’s alleged willingness to spend public funds, citing personal donations to schools and colleges as examples of using private money. He notes the district’s own Caldwell donated 100000 cash for a local school. He ends by questioning why Pennsylvania should boast about unlimited spending while taxpayers bear the cost.
