PAPER WASTED
BY GOVERNMENT
Printing Bill Is Five Million Dollars
More Per Year Than
it Formerly
Was.

! WASHING TON. D. c., Sept. 49,
declaring that the administration is
IN the throes Of an epidemic of use
less publicity, Representative Walsh
republican, of Massachusetts sharp
~ assailed the waste of paper by
various branches of the government
while the newspapers of the country
are being forced to adopt the most
drastic measures of conservation.
| Mr.. Walsh said most of the depart
ments of the government seemed to
have an "unappeasable appetite for
pitiless publicity" and that the proper
way to describe the situation was to
paraphrase once popular song,
| Every Little Bureau Has Bulletin
OF Its own" One of the chief results
or the enormous additional expendi-
ture for government publicity. he
said, was to bring into regula' use
waste baskets heretofore permitted
to rspose Cndisturbed."
The increase in the governments
printing bill for this year, Mr.. Walsh
estimated at about $5,0O0,O0O. This
does not, of course, include the large
expenditure for the corps of publicity
experts, editors, special writers,
artists, and "other impedimenta," he
explained. THE taxpayers have to
my mind not received any benefit
commensurate with the cost.
Il doubt If many of the various
governmental departments have cur
tailed their output to any appreciable
degree. On the other hand, many
other departments have Increased
their issuance.
The United States government,
thrNIIOh ffo nio1s WI, fa
should set an example of economy
and conservation, but, alas, on the
contrary, we have deluge of bulle-
tins, reports, surveys, magazines. and
various other publications choking up
the government printing Office, clog
ging the mails, and cluttering up
many an Office Or accounting room in
business houses and numerous par
lors or sitting rooms in quiet, happy
homes.
"In some of these, psychological edi-
tors or editorial psychologists are
paid at space rates. At the gait we
are travelling, the recent expenditure
for airplanes we did not get will pale
into insignificance.
ut has been stated on good author
fty that 1t takes more than one pound
OF coal to supply power sufficient to
produce one pound of paper, but a
much less quantity of brains is suffi-
cfent to waste tons of the same print
paper after it has been produced.
"The joint committee on printing
last winter recommended certain
economies on the use of print paper
and effected saving of nearly a mil
lion dollars, but in spite of this the
mushroom growth of new journals
has wiped out the saving and run
throughout many Of the adj
departments. Taxing
children's toys and candies, as well
as women's hats and stockings, to
maintain some of these documents is
