Economist Warns Republicans on Tax Policy and Confidence
David Lawrence argues in Washington that abandoning sound money and cutting federal income taxes for up to 15.9 million people would erode public faith in the dollar, trigger panic, and repeat prewar Depression patterns. He cites 1923 Germany and 1930s New Deal as cautionary references while urging balanced budgets and selective tax reform to avoid recession and disorder.

Better To Pay For Foster Homes Than Training Schools
Dr. Louis Jacobs urged Frederick County listeners that funding foster homes and enhanced special education and psychiatric services could curb juvenile delinquency more effectively than expanding training schools. He cited that two thirds of delinquents come from inadequate homes and most have school adjustment issues, with about half emotionally disturbed. He argued training schools are not best for most youths and emphasized community efforts, visiting teachers, tutors, and mentorship to prevent delinquency while noting some youths require isolation. The talk was part of a series co-sponsored by the Frederick County Mental Health Association with Johns Hopkins experts to follow.
