THE fact that MaiIBurke, Loui

THE fact that MAJ. Burke, Louisi'
ana's bond-scandal suspect, prefers
remaining in London to coming
home and facing his sccusers,
makes it look decidedly unfavorable
for the ex- treasurer. II he expects
the public to much longer believe
his professions of innocence some

The Philadelphia Times makes
the following estimate of the expense
of Tanner to the government: "Of the
increase in government expenditures
for the quarter ending Sept. 80 it
appears that sl0,56s,o00 was due to
increased outlay for the pension
bureau. At this rate the increase
for pensions alone for the fiscal year
would have been s42, 900, 900 and up
wards, or more than 80 per cent
more than in any former year. In
other words, to the $50, 100000 ex-
pended for pensions last year would
have been added $4,000 more,
making total of 1922, O00,o 600. This
sum is s30,O00,Ooo greater than is
expended for the maintenance of
Germany's enormous standing army,
sIl, 100000 more than the annual
war outlay of France and $50, 600, 900
more than that OF England"
