QUIZ ON u. S. AUTOS.
Senate to Probe 10y Riding" al
Mr.. Bristow's Request.

If there is any 10y riding" in motor
cars at the expense of the Federal gov
eminent, Senator Bristow intends to find
it out. Yesterday he offered, and the
Senate agreed to, a general dragnet
resolution, calling upon the heads of all
executive departments, the commits
sioners of the District, the government
printing Office, the Smithsonian Institu-
ton, and the civil service commission to
submit to the Senate information rela-
tive to the vehicles used by them.
This resolution directs each of these
departments and bureaus "to furnish
the Senate detailed statement of the
number of carriages, motorcycles,
motor vehicles, and automobiles now
owned by the government or maintained
at government expense"
The resolution also asks for data on
''the purpose for which each individual
carriage or vehicle is used and the make
of the car, if a motor car; also to re-
port to the Senate the number of gov
eminent employees who are employed or
detailed as chauffeurs, drivers, or foot
men for such carriages and automobiles,
and how much of the time of these
respective government employees is de-
voted to that particular work; also to
report to whom each such carriage or
automobile is assigned.
"There is an effort, or has been in
years past, on the part of number of
District officials to secure automobiles, :"
said Senator Bristow, referring to the
expenditures for the District. "Of
course" he continued, "they are to be
used, l suppose, in way for their official
business, and also very largely for per-
sonal comfort. know l frequently see
these officials enjoying the cool of the
evening in government automobiles at
public expense.
"A horse and buggy will carry only
two, and sometimes, when there are nu-
merous members of the family, they
prefer the five-passenger machine. The
town is full of them, in my judgment,
and sometimes on the streets it is hard
work for those of us who plod around
as best we can to keep from being run
over by these government automobiles
in the hands of city officials, presumably
on official ENTHUSIASTICALLY.
81 do not want to object to an auto
mobile where it is used for official bust
ness and is a matter of economy, but
do object to the government providing
these subordinate officials here not only
with very competent salaries, but also
with all the luxuries of automobiles that
cost some thousand and fifteen hundred
dollars year to maintain"
Senator Bristow said that he believed
the information would open the eyes of
Congress when it discovered how large
is the number of vehicles that are being
used by the various departments of the
government. Some years ago an effort
was made to minimize private use, the
senator explained, by directing the
painting of the name of the department
upon all vehicles. This was evaded, he
said, by painting the name in letters so
small that carriages continue to be
utilized by the families of bureau chiefs.
Senator Bristow made it plain that he
is not opposed to proper vehicles for

any department where the public bust
ness requires it.
When the District appropriation bill
was under consideration in the Senate
Mr.. Bristow criticised the practice of
supplying government departments with
automobiles, and declared they were
used largely by the families of officials,
and operated at the expense of the gov
eminent, although the law intended that
these public vehicles should be used
only in the transaction of the public
business. Washington Post.

Mr.. SAINT Kirkpatrick,
Dear Sir: .. ..
l have looked through the Ottumwa
directory and other directories and
have failed to find your address in the
sixth district, so will address an open
letter to you. l notice that you have
been living in North Carolina for over
twenty years; | wondered where you
lived, as ! have been here long time
and knew you did not live in Ottumwa,
or in Iowa. What / want to know Is:
Why should l, an Iowa voter, support
you for representative, when you are
not q resident Of this/state? II you
should be elected. then, II I or any other
citizen of Iowa should wish to see you,
we would be obliged to travel to North
Carolina to have talk with you. This
doesn't seem right to me. If you prefer
North Carolina as a home and as a
place to invest your money, why don't
YOU have them elect you to congress
instead of coming to Iowa and posing
as an Iowa man? You have no interests
here and haven't been here for so long
that you do not represent Iowa
thought or Iowa ideas. Your whole in
terests are in the south and you repre-
sent southern thought and southern
ideas. for one am not willing that
Iowa should be classed as an adjunct
to North Carolina. l believe in Iowa
men for Iowa offices.
Very truly
A Voter
