SHE LENT HER son

Over in Western Ohio is little town
that made remarkable record of en-
listment for overseas service. They
began early and continued right up to
the last call. And the boys made
doubly good over there.
Recently some of them came back.
Many of them had seen hot fighting.
Not all of them came out unmarked.
Some will bear honorable scars to
their graves. And any one of them
can tell a rafting good story.
This fact moved some of the pride
full townsfolk to arrange for the meet
ing at which these boys gave the stay
at-homes an idea of what fighting the
Hun on his own back lot really meant.
And it was some meeting,
1t was almost over before a little
woman arose over in one corner and
made her way to the front. Nearly
everyone recognized her. She had
sent her only son to the front early.
With heE-it was a matter of pure
patriotism. His father had served his
country before him. All knew the

bUsINEss.ukE METHODS
DEMANDED BY WARREN
Says Constitutional Government Will
Return With Proper Use Of
Peoples Money.
(By Smell SMITH


Washington. Senator Francis II.
Warren, OF Wyoming, the new Repub-
lican chairman of the Senate Commit
tee on Appropriations, will Insist upon
an early return to business methods
and constitutional government as a
remedy for the extravaganza and
waste of the present Administration.
"Unheard Of sums Of unheard OF
purposes have steadily been appro-
priated out Of the public treasury, with
the result that an immediate halt must
be called If the payers Of the country
are to be protected" he said to your
correspondent. "Often without ade-
quate reason and certainly without
proper check the money of the peo-
pie has been pourked into projects
which later events have proven entire
" unworthy. When the books are
opened by the new Congress before
the summer is over, an unsavory rec
ord will, | fear, be revealed-a record
of fayoritism in contracts and wan
ton waste in the completion of them
where they have not had to be aban-
doned altogether The country must
check up, and 1t should be thankful
that it has placed the task in the hands
of the party opposed to present execu-
tive methods. Otherwise, it is I'M
likely that much of the tale would
never be told. Yet the uncovering OF
waste is not enough. There must be
an institution of methods which will
prevent its recurrence. To this end
the appropriations committees OF the
House and Senate will see to 1t that
every item is scrutinized and all vag-
ue, idealistic and impractical projects
eliminated.
"a proper and economical expendi-
ture of the money of the people by the
branch of the government given pow
er to appropriate it will, in my judg-
ment, itself prove a palliative of the
evils of reconsideration Armed with
vast powers during the war and aided
and abetted by a supine Democratic
Congress, the President has gradually
permitted arbitrary methods on the
part of the executive departments
which have undermined proper re-
spect for the authority Of Congress
Therefore, a return by Congress tc
business methods of appropriation anf
audit will have the effect of impress
ing upon the executive branch that I
