ROOSEVELT'S METHODS
' MERE POLITICAL BAIT ; JUST A SQUANDERER (Special to the "Evening Post.") ! DUNEDIN, June 27. I In a letter to a Dunedin friend, a • resident of Pittsburgh, U.S.A., refers to i the uncertainty of the labour market and trade in the United States and squandering of billions of dollars by the Government. , "President Roosevelt," he says, "has Always been a squanderer, and even when he was Governor of New York State left in that State a debt never before heard of. Roosevelt's t pouring of Government funds into a pumppriming method to bring back prosperity and his handing out of millions of dollars to the rank and file in a system which is worse than the dole system isf purely a political campaigning method of the cheapest character. All these large appropriations are finally coming out of the taxpayer and people can always spend other folks' money more readily than their own. It is disgusting to Arid daily cheap politicians feathering their own nests."
