WASHINGTON. May 1s.-ln HE De-
cember message the President expressed
his satisfaction With the organization
In the Senate Of the Committee on
Public Expenditures. a committee spe-
cially created In March. loOo, for the
purpose Of investigating possible econo-
mics in the public servios. The result
Of investigation by a sub-cOmmittse
was a bill. approved on February q, Tor
the creation 81 a Government Business
Methods Commission TO be composed
Of not exceeding nine members, 10 BE-
appointed by the President of the United
StatPa.' On March I the bill was referred
10 the senats COMMITTEES on ApprOpri-
atoms. The matter viii probably re-
appear in the form Of a call for $1,000
in one Of the appropriation bills.
In a Washington letter printed in THE
SUN Of March reference was made 20
this matter with a comment on the per
ooDtible subsistence Of last years enthu-
siasm for economy In appropriation. :
In the ten weeks that have paGssd since
that comment was made there has not been
a sign Of any rCvival Of the enthusiasm,
nor has there been any strenuous attompt
10 reduce the national expenditures. Il
ls now practically certain that the appro-
priations II the present session will exceed
those Of the last session. and II IL possible
that the increase will reach $50. 000 !OOO.
The experience of the various appropria-
tion bills in the present session has
differed little or not AZ all from the exps-
riencs Of their predecessors. Thers has
been individual attack on particular items
and there has been the usual effort 70 make
party capital by general charges Of indie
fensible extravaEAnce. Under pressure
from the White HOUSE the calls made by
the departments we're doubtless trimmed

present conditions. but tho total when Il
h made up will indicate restraint rather
than any real economy.

own fault.
Under tho system Of abuse and ter
rOism wh.~h for years characterized
the police many outrageous assaults
were made on citizens who had no re-
dress. The patrolmen came TO depend
on illegal and uni'lstihable methods 10 a
degree that may have caused them TO
become ihezpert in the expedients Tor
self-protectiOn on which they should
rely. But theSs are not 20 difficult 10
acquire that their disuse for even a long
period should make the policeman in
capable Of adopting them.
In the meantime it il 10 be horne In
mind that not few men on the force are
longing Ia secure the reversal Of Mayor
GATNOR's policy and that the tales Of
assaults on helpless and defenceless
patrolmen are among the most elIec-
tive means Of creating public opinion
favorable 10 their wishes. For this
reason the well advertised attacks on
policemen that now form a part Of the
news Of every day should he read II not
