LONDON, THURSDAY. MARCH 8.

Air impression that the audit of the national
accounts is not conducted in the best possible
manner is shown by members of Parliament
in different ways. Those who follow the
traditions of Joaara Hums betray this feel-
ing by an annual motion for a Finance Com-
mittee. Mr. Warm recently advocated this mode
of sorutinising cur public expenditure. The majo-
rity of the members, however, adopt a simpler
means to show their disapproval of the present
system—they stay away from the Committee of
Supply. As soon as the preliminary debates that
herald this proceeding are over, but few members
remain in the House. It is not unnatural that the
Commons should be tempted to withdraw from a
proceeding which, from slackening vitality of action,
approximates to a ceremony, but which is still at- THE ADOUTIOI or CHOICE EMS.
