We lack hospital space. both private and public. to take care of the sick and indigent. All of the foregoing is not attributable to the lack of civic pride or interest in the city of Chicago. by the people who inhabit it. but is definitely due to the lack of funds which cannot be procured by additional local taxation. If the proportionate share of the $3.000.000.000 that ECA collects from Chicago. and which will be given away to Europeans and Asiatics and every other Hottentot with his hand out. were retained in the United States. it would prevent the taking of about $50 from the pockets of every man. woman. and child in Chicago. and thus make available $100.000.000 to finance the projects which Chicago so badly needs right now. We are called upon to pay for the mistakes of world power politics and to finance the pet projects of internationalists. Communists.
