Still Spending and No Budget

This is the caption of an editorial in the Kan
sas City Times in which it attacks the present
system of making appropriations and pleads for
the establishment of budget system. Congress
under the present system makes appropriations
on a guess-work basis, knowing that the depart
n1ents, after they have spent the appropriation,
will come back for more, which in turn will be
taken care Of in the deficiency bill.
Senator Shoots, member of the senate ap-
preparations committee, describes the method:
mo matter how much money congress appro-
pirates for any department of this government,
all of it is spent and the heads of the depart
3lents see that it is spent If they cannot spend
it legitimately they will employ people enough
to require the expenditure of every dollar. They
think if they should happen to turn any unex-
pected balance back into the treasury, congress
would take that as an indication that the money
they had asked for was unnecessary. The de-
partments have now gotten into position where
they not only ask for the amounts they know
they have to have but they ask for all they
think they can get, with the idea that congress
is going to cut some of it out anyhow and they
will be on the safe side'
The Times amnlifies Senator Shoots des-
cription with commentary. Such a system has
Tot even common honesty to recommend it, to
say nothing Of economy" says the Times. THE
departments ask without knowing how much
they need, and congress gives without knowing
how much it has. Congress get more from
the people when it runs out, and the departments
can get more from congress when they run out.
The system Of deficiency bills is open invita-
ton to extravaganza. It simply encourages the
departments to spend money they haven't got.
It is now too late to expect any change this year.
The appropriations have been made up to June
so, 1920, both regular and deficiency, with prob
ably more deficiencies to come
Federal taxes will never be lowered so long
as congress adopts no budget for the handling
CT our finances Reckless and unscentific ex-
pendtures will continue, and the people will pay
the bill in increased taxation. Both parties gave
promise of budget reform. It is too late to make
4 change this year, but when the regular session
of congress assemblies in December the country
ought not to let the two parties forget their
promises. Reform in the appropriations of the
country is badly needed

No Real Hope for Dry Repeal

A great deal of protest has been voiced
against nationwide prohibition under the new
constitutional amendment, especially in the
larger cities. The metropolitan press of the
East has been very generally disposed to de-
nounce what it calls minority rule, and to say
that prohibition is coming next January against
the wishes of the people generally.
1t is a very significant fact that none of the
opponents of prohibition has made prediction
that the dry amendment will be repealed. Even
the most dlsconsolate owe great part Of their
gloom to a certainty of belief that prohibition
is coming to stay, that there will be no escape
from it.
Does this support the charge that the
jority Of the people against prohibition?
Hardly. Even the most disappointed probably
believe, deep inside of Them that public sent-
ment will never favor a return of the saloon. We
have been more or less dry since July /, and
nothing terrible has happened Men are manag-
finding other ways to use the old drink money,
without having to try very hard either. Even
the Gay White Way continues to glitter though
on short and secret rations. We hear talk of
cases where violent and unusual stinulants based
on mixtures of wood alcohol have done deadly
execution but we doubt whether such cases are
numerous. Neither do believe that we are
to become nation of drug addicts. In fact, we
getting along quite well, and even the irTecon-
cilable will in time become reconciled. They are
saving money.

Just because the stomach sours
with gassiness, heartburn. water brash
and such distrcsses alter eating, IS
not a good reason Tor depriving the
system of nourishment.
Instead Of ind!gestible and innu-
tritious bran and skim milk try the
better plan Of eating what you like
and follow your meals with Stuart's
Dyspepsia Tablets. They digest food,
they assist the stomach to secrete
juices that keep the stomach sweet,
active and with the alkaline effect,
just as when the stomach is in per-
feet health. Nor is it necessary to
discriminate. You may eat freely Of
onions. sausage, mince pie and baked
beans, or other dishes, such as the
average dyspeptic views with horror,
and suffer no distress if you follow
with Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets.
There is thus no need to fear any
kind Of food at any time or place, for
with these tablets. you may prevent
those distresses that formerly made
you pamper your stomach as if it were
a tender infant. You can get Stu
arts Dyspepsia Tablets in any drug
store at so cents a box.-Adv.
