MIR. GOOD URGES BUDGET
PLAN.

Representative Good of Iowa,
Chairman Of the House Select
Committee and the Budget, said
that, if the United States is to pay
off It's big war debt within the
next fifty years, strict economy
will be necessary. He said further
that Government appropriations
should be kept down to not more
than $4,O0O,OOO,OOO per annum
and advocated the budget system
as an essential means Of holding
down public expenses.
Mr.. Goods speech was made
during discussion of the pending
bill for the establishment of a
budget and independent audit of
Government accounts, and it is
significant and gratifying to note
the fact that there seems to be
little disposition on the part OF
members Of the House to oppos.
the measure. In fact leaders Of
both sides spoke in favor of the
Legislation. The only part of the
bill which is expected to meet
with opposition is that which
provides for Comptroller Gen
eral Of the United States to be ap-
pointed by the President and to
hold office for life, subject to re-
moval only by a concurrent reso.
