WHAT WOULD YOU EXPECT.

Senator Burton has in the esteemed Saturday Even ing Post long article about national extravaganza ferrng. of to government expenses which are always large and always growing larger.
 In that article he talks about causes, but like most other commentators this subject, he overooks the only real underlying worth thinking about.
 And this cause. which is behind state and local travagance. we'll national extrayagance is that public is paymaser and because of it's indifference its lack of organized protest has practically de- fenseless
 What would you expect where the situation existed of men spending other peoples money, taking it out of their pockets largely will. rendering only formal counting and with the of the pockets taking only mild interest in what is going on. and propos ing to do nothing whatever about 1t?
 When you employ caretaker you allow lin for K penses what you think is necessary and what you afford.
 What would you expect but extravaganza if you had
 lot of caretakers who free to spend much as they chose and if you paid little attention to how much they took how they spent it?
 That's so closely analogous to the situation between the taxpayer and the axspender that n isn't necessar, to look furthcY for causes of public extravaganza.

 That pedantry which delights in using the rare and obsolete is Just reprehensibe as that ragsins in speech which consists in coinins useless words.
 But the real danger with slang phrases is that the user ceases to think out the which he should express certain vugarIsm leaps to the lips every occasion and there is resulting mental azness. which is the greatest of crimes Language is instrument of thought and convenient forms economize intellectual force, but there comes time when economize to the point of atrophy of the reasoning processes.

 As for the British attempt to revert to the speech of Dr. Johnson it will be well if the distinction is made between English spoken and written by the great lexcagrapher. Johnson often spoke like a human being sometimes he wrote like an angel-but too often he adopted style far suited and verbose for this age of rapid transit His long words and long sentences might have been suited to beguing stage coach jour- ney but they would be decidedly nconvenent for street conversation.
