NATIONAL APPROPRIATIONS

cratic Deficiencies Figure Largely-An
Analysis Of the Appropriations

Before Congress adjourned Democrats in
that body gave out that the Fifty-irst
Congress had appropriated over billion of
money, and Mr.. Sayers. of Texas. made
figures TO sustain the charge. Both Sena-
tor Allison, chairman of the Senate appro-
priations committee, and Mr.. Cannon,
chairman of the same committee In the
House. asserted that the figures were
wrong. and both agreed that the total ap
propriations would aggregate about $685..
100000 Since the adjournment of Congress.
Mr.. Allison has given the press a semi-ofi-
cial statement sustaining his former esti-
mate and now Mr.. Cannon has prepared
with great care an exhaustive statement of
the appropriations in comparison with
those of the Flftieth Congress. No man is
better qualified to make such statement,
because no man. except Senator Allison.
mas had 50 much experience with the appro-
priation bills of Congress. The Democratic
and assistant Democratic papers have
raised the cry of "a billion-dollar Con gress"
without entering into any explanation. 1t
ia not ex xpected that such papers will pub
Esh Mr. Cannon's statement, but many
people would like the facts. and they are
important, because the Democrats are pre-
pairing TO make howl over the extrava-
gance of the Republican Congress. The

ment, gives the appropriations of the Eff
