lust at this time when the voters
~ the United States are being asked
70 ratify the administration OF Presi'
dent Taft and to return to congress
the representatives who voted for the
payne-Aldrich tariff monstrosity, the
financial report Of the government
shows an alarming deficit. The re-
publican experts had been hoping all
along that they could plan and scheme
and make showing that would at
least look like an even break for the
month just preceding the fall cleo
lions, but they have been unable to
do so.
Exclusive of the Panama canal al
lowances, the receipts for the month
we're 55,266.441 and the expenditures
we're $os,56O, 1923, which left deficit
in ordinary operations OF $3,393.SS2.
Add to that sum the months cost Of
the work on the canal and there Is 2
heavy balance on the wrong side OF
the ledger. The close Of September
had shown total surplus of more
than $4,000 and it was the first
time i'm the present fiscal year that
the government took in more than 1t
paid out.
The operations of last month
brought the total deficit for the year
up to 100000.

tary Macvcigh, Of the treasury depart

In some quarters II is considered
likely that deposits in the postal

revenue from this source depends on
the promptucss with which these pos

amount Of deposits made in them.
The condition of the treasury shows
the failure of the tariH law from a
business standpoint and II not only
robs the people but fails to provide

Young women in business had best

The cost Of living affects the preacher
al we'll as the business man. The
time il coming when people will know
that their pastor must be supported.
or else men will look out for other
ways Of living. A preacher must eat
and wear good clothes.
The church always resents worldly
criticism and always has done SO, but
has 1t anything to say or has the
great enlightened public anything to
say in reply to such charges as these?
Men have been punished by law for
failure to provide for their families
but here the church practically forces
men to either inadeQuately support
their wives and children or else leave
the Christian ministry. The case
mentioned here may be an isolated
one but it goes to show the low scale
Of compensation ministers are getting.
