DEMOCRATIC LEADERS THINK

AS INTENDED.

DEMOCRATS HAVE WHIP

OMIT APPROPRIATION

WASHINGTON. March 3-House
Democratic leaders have made up
their minds To strike out the appro-
priation for the travelling expenses
Of the President. They propose to
lop off the $4,000 which the Presi-
dent is now allowed by law to en-
able him to travel about the country.
The Democrats will do this on the
ground that the appropriation was
allowed by Congress to enable the
President To get In touch with the
people, but that 1t was not the pur-
pose OF Congress to give the Presi-
dent money whereby he could pro-
mote the purposes of his own re-
nomination.
In other words. the Democratic
leaders have come to the conclusion
that the President Is utilizing the
$4,000 annual allowance OF public
funds to promote the private purpose
Of getting himself renonninatctf.
They thtIik~hfs travels arc devoted
largely TO that end.
Omit Appropriation.
The Democrats propose when the
question OF appropriating the usual
sum comes up simply to omit to
make that appropriation. 1t Is likely
there will be sharp night over the
question. but. as a matter OF fact,
the Democrats have the whip hand.
II they insist on the sum being lef,
out. 1t doubtless will pc left out,
Moreover, it will not be easy to re,
the majority OF the Senate to vote to
restore the item, in view Of the feel
ing of many OF the Senate Republi-
cans toward the administration.
one OF the reasons why the Demo
Gratis in the House are not eager to
make the appropriation for the trav-
cling expenses Of the President "a
that II the money Is allowed for the
next fiscal year It can be used in the
coming prediction campaign.
or course It II more or less trou-
blesome for Speaker Champ Clark
TO refuse to make the appropriation
The Speaker has the utmost conf
dence that he is destined for the
White House. and 1t would be right
embarrassing to land there just when
the appropriation for travelling ex-
pense was cut of. Still, 1t would be
possible to scut the allowance out
for the coming fiscal year, and Their
renew 1t next winter.
President Well Paid, Anyway.
In any event. the President 1.
much better paid than a Few years
ago. The salary has been increased
from $4,000 to $4,000. and this
plus the allowance for travelling ex.
penses. makes tho pay 100000 .

amount spent b. the government e
