"The money was all appropriated for the top in hopes that it would trickle down to the needy.
Mr. Hoover didn't know that the money trickled up.
Give it to the people at the bottom and the people at the top will have it before night, anyhow.
Bit it will at least have passed through the poor fellow's hand."
