Here and There Editorial by ALEx H Washburn in Arkansas
R H Henry reports to the writer on W R Dyess federal relief funds in Arkansas and hints at possible resignations or federal replacement of state officials. He cites 25 percent overhead, suggests either incompetence or political ambition, and warns of draining Washington’s treasury while praising past aid to drought years. The piece argues for tighter accountability by state leaders and criticizes Arkansas’ large federal funding share.
