using it most profitably had to be
settled. AS it was found impracti-
cable to supply every one of the
hundred public schools of the city
with separate museum, it was de
cided that there should be one mu-
scum for all the schools and that by
means of an automobile truck the
museum material should be sent to
the various schools.
The museum is arranged in close
connection with the course of study
followed in the schools. Among the
groups of exhibits are: Food pro-
ducts, material for clothing, mounted
animals, the life and occupations of
different peoples of the world; charts
and colored pictures illustrating his
tory minerals and ores, and charts
illustrating geography, astronomy and
physiology" The museum reports
show that in point of popularity the

Why has the war department been
paying the ring $3.50 for a 3.S-inch
common shrapnel when it can man
ufacture and is manufacturing the
identical article at Frankford for
1894? Seventeen dollars and fifteen
cents is more than twice 1874. The
government could manufacture two
shrapnels for the price it has been
paying the private manufacturers for
one and have $162 remaining to the
peoples credit on each transaction.
Is it any wonder we do not have
as much ammunition as we should
have for the money that has been
expended? 1t is the public funds
that are being spent here, and the
people have a right to have these
questions answered.
We are manufacturing a 31-second

saving approximately $1,00O,OO0 on
a $4,000 600 order as compared with
what it would have cost had the con-
tract been awarded the ammunition
ring.
In a recent speech before congress
President Wilson stated that like
good stewards, We should so account
for every dollar of our appropriations
as to make it perfectly evident what
it was spent for and in what way it
was spent" Surely no such thought
was in the minds of the army and
navy officials who have been doing
the purchasing for these depart
ments.

only secretary OF the navy that

of the ring. | am not referring now
to armor, because the secretary has
not been able to obtain armor abroad.
Recently the secretary awarded a
contract for building 100 torpedo
TASKS, including heads. He induced
new firm to slip in with bid,
and was able to purchase for S5S,246
materials which under normal cond
tons would have cost $1l5,075. The
bids of the Bethlehem and Midvale
companies, under real competitive
bidding, showed a reduction of A
per cent as compared with bids for
similar forgings submitted by these
companies only four months pre-
vious.
Personally, believe that these Of
ticers who, in the expenditure of the
peoples money, have been paying
$1l5,O75 for supplies which could
have been obtained for $5S,246
should, somewhere or in some man
ner, be required to make a public
accounting for their acts. The thing
that rifles the blood concerning the
manner in which the millions have
been squandered by our army and
navy officers is that this money did
not come from the pockets of the
rich, but that it was wrung from
the poorest of the poor. All of these
wasted millions have been collected
by a tax on the things that the
people eat, wear, and use, none OF
it having been collected by direct
taxation, but every cent of it having
come through the custom houses and
internal revenue offices, which means
that the people have been paying
the cost of militarism in the form
of increased cost of living.
