Prince Georges Sheriff Not Respon'
sible.
To the Editor Of The Star:

To the Editor of The Star:
Acting on behalf of Mr.. A. B. Suit,
sheriff of Prince Georges county. Md, l
will appreciate it if YOU will correct the
misstatement published in your paper, es-
pec.ally last Saturday. which charges that
the sheriff and his deputies have unlaw-
fully and oppressively interfered with au-
tomobile traffic in Prince Georges county.
l may say from personal knowH dge that
the matter complained of has been oc-
casioned by the local officers of Hyatts-
Vile and Laurel and certain constables
of the county, who are not under the
jurisdiction nor control of the sheriff. 1t
seems appropriate in this connection to
say also that there has been grave
misunderstanding and an injustice done
some of the officers of the county in this
matter, for l know of my personal knowl-
edge that the average automobile driver
is very Indifferent to the rights of any
body on the highways traversed by him.
1t has been common practice to run
machines on these roads at the speed OF
thirty or forty miles an hour, and while
occasionally just ground of complaint
may exist that the automobile driver is
unnecessarily interfered with on the
highways Of Maryland, and sometimes
eral rule he is guilty of the matter
charged against him. There seems to be
a tendency to take but one view of this
matter, with total disregard of the fact
that the statute law of Maryland and the
administration Of justice is superior to the
desires or grievances. real or imagined, of
the automobile owners, for these statutes
are made for the protection of human
life and should be enforced.

Four million ducks and allied water

Offices Outside of Washington.

at is further to be noted" continues
the President, that the offices which
have been reported on are those which
have been frequently under scrutiny.
From what is known of the offices outside
of Washington it is thought that it is in
this field that the largest opportunities
for economy will be found-partly due TO
the fact that these offices have not been
under scrutiny, and partly due to the fact
that large number of them are doml-
mated by political appointees
LAS illustrating the relative Importance
of service outside of Washington, it is of
interest to note that the cost of clerk hire
at the New York post office alone is more
than that incurred in the departments OF
War, Navy. State, Justice and commerce
and Labor at Washington; that in the
custom house at New York the cost of
clerk hire is greater than in any one de-
partment at Washington

Saving of Millions.

I'm my opinion says the President.
this is not a matter in which the Con-
gress should assume that public money
will be unwisely spent. AT a total cost
of about $230.G00 during the twenty-one
months covered by the work of the COM
mission facts have been developed and
recommendations have been made that,
If followed up. will result i'm savings of
millions of dollars each year. This has
been done under the handicap of made
quate funds and uncertainty of continual
ton, which interfered with the making
of plans which could not be completely
executed within a few months. 1t would
be very much to the advantage of the
administration If the President were au-
thorized to spend whatever amount he
may deem to be necessary within the
next two years. the only condition at
tached being that he render an account
of expenditures.
Referring to the fact that it has not
been possible for the commission to make
final detailed reports on more than lew
of the hundreds of offices in Washington.
and in only one office outside of WASH
ington has work of this character been

ports submitted will serve to illustrate

coo for continuing the investigation of
the commission on economy and eff
cheney into the executive departments of
the government in a special message to-
day by President Taft. transmitting to
that body the report of the commission.
In his message the President points out
that there is no greater service that
can be rendered to the country than that
of the continuance of the work of the
commission until some form of .organiZa-
ton is provided for continuously doing
this kind of work under the executive.
The President expresses the opinion
that the technique and procedure of
every branch and Office of the govern
ment should be submitted to the same
painstaking examination as that given
those on which reports have been made.
To do this. however, President Taft says
that ample funds must be provided, and
he asks that Congress make the So5DUJ
available by March 4, for the incoming
President.
