WHITE HOUSE TALK
ONBUDGETPLANNED
Representative SherIey Calls
on President to Arrange
for Conference.

Representative Sherley. chairman of
the special budget committee of the
House. now holding sessions here, was
at the White House today to arrange
for a conference of the committee with
President Wilson and such cabinet Of
fcers as are interested in the PROPOSE
ton to substitute budget each year
for the old methods of dealing with
receipts and disbursements. The pur-
pose of the committee Is to report pro-
vision for a budget at the democratic
caucus to be held just before the be-
ginning OF Congress. @
1t Is feared that the caucus will be
somewhat slow to adopt the new
scheme, and there are intimations that
President Wilson may be appealed to
for aid in having the caucus adopt
budget plan b."
Mr.. Sherley today indicated his conf
dence that Congress will early in the
coming session provide for q budget
scheme and believes that it will be pos
sible to initiate the scheme at the coming
session in the handling Of appropriations.
Mr.. Sherley's idea is that there should
be a permanent budget committee in the
House which would each year decide upon
the amount of money the government
would spend in the ensuing fiscal year. the
details of these expenditures to be re
ferred to the appropriations committee
for action. The budget committee would
also estimate the income of the govern
ment for the same year. and in the event
the estimated income did not reach the
estimated expenditures the ways and
means committee would be called upon to
provide method for raising more
revenues
Plan Similar to English Method.
Mr.. Sherley's idea is that when the
budget committee had agreed upon the
totals for the fiscal year in question It
would submit It's report to the whole
House, where discussion would ensue,
as in the English parliament. and If
the budget figures were sustained they
would so to the appropriation commit
tee for action. In this way the appro-
priation committee would become a
mere piece Of machinery for carrying
out the Views of the House and the
budget committee.
Mr.. Sherley thinks that the whole
country should know each year just
how much money the government pro-
poses to spend on each branch, including
War Navy and other departments and
how 1t Is proposed to raise this money.
He believes Congress and the country
will prefer this to the long-existing
method of making appropriations re-
gardless Of the income of the govern
ment and OF making them without the
country having any definite Idea Of
why they are made.
