SENATE AIMS TO
FULLY CONSIDER
BUDGET SYSTEM


SPECIAL CORRESPONDENCE TO MORNING JOURNAL
Washington, July I'm considering
the sundry civil bill the senate adopt
ed an amendment providing for the
appointment of a joint commission to
report to congress by December l Of
this year rlan for a budget system.
Tho establishment of such system
was STRONGLY advocated ny Senator
Kenyon of Iowa and Senator FdPe ~
New Jersey. Senator GrOnna OF North
Dakota expressed himself fearful Of
any plan to take away from congress
the power over aupronriaticns and to
put more power into the hands of the
executive officials
PROPOSED Commission.
The proposed commission is 10 CON
sist of five members of the senate and
five of the house and another five to
he named by the president and con-
firmed by the senate. II IS TO serve
without compensation but there Is an
appropriation for ne"e"sarv expenses.
In case the sundry civil bill as fin
ally passed carries this provision for
n commiss on to look into the budget
system it is assumed the inquiry will
he begun with the least possible DELAY
Many members feel that the budget
system should he established without
waiting for an investigation IN any
event the trend Of things seems to be
toward the establishment of a budget
system before many months has
elapsed.
Practical Difficulties.
Although in theory there Is every
thing to be said for a well cO-ordi-
mated budget system the practical diff
ficulties of working one out are fully
appreciated by members who have
given the fullest study to appropria-
tons and to fiscal affairs of the gov
eminent. The extravaganza of high
government officials IS well known.
Seemingly there is almost no limit to
their demands for appropriations. 1t
is obvious that any budget which rep
resents simply the demands of the
executive officials of the government
would tend to increase expenditures
rather than reduce them. Leaders in
congress as a rule take the view that
in making up any budget system
which would be of practical benefit TO
the country careful regarc must be
had for the constitutional authority
of congress in the last analysis to con-
troll the purse strings.
The conferees eliminated the pro-
vision for a budget system, but it will,
undoubtedly, be restored.

George took off his dressing-gown
and put on a collar and tie. his fingers
shaking so that the tie was not his
usual success; then he picked up his
coat and waistcOat, and left the room
while still in process OF donning them,
fastening the buttons as he ran down
the front stairs to the door. II was
not until he reached the middle Of the
street that he realized that he had for
gotten his hat; and he paused for an
irresolute moment then he decided
that he needed no hat for the sort OF
call he Intended to make. and went
forward hurriedly. Mrs. Johnson
was at home. the Irish girl who came
to the door informed him. and he was
left to await the lady, in a room like
