Roosevelt Promises Drastic Cutback Under New Deal
Washington AP reports Franklin Delano Roosevelt will take office as the 32nd president with a pledge of wide retrenchment in federal spending to reach a balanced budget. He aims to cut ordinary government expenses by 25 percent, subject to congressional appropriations, and ties cabinet inclusion to loyalty to retrenchment. He outlines a New Deal blueprint with nine, eight, seven, and six point programs on securities, private loans abroad, utilities, railroads, and farm recovery, seeking to curb waste, expand national planning, and reform tax distribution while promoting negotiated tariffs and a cash surplus to fund veterans’ bonuses.
