POOR SANS ALMANAC BUILT

There is no winter of discomfort
for he who puts his savings into war
savings stamps.
The morale of a family in which
green rows of thrift stamps and blue
row of war savings stamps are cult
waited is always high.

Gle Sam is ready to aid you. Invest
in his war savings stamps. Make
that a habit.
Don't bury your savings. Plant
them in war savings stamps. They
will grow. Your harvest of interest
is sure, besides the original plant is
always there ready to be used when
necessity calls.
Your dimes and quarters have
wings. Don't let them fly away. Clip
their wings by putting them in wal
savings stamps and later you will be
clipping coupons.
While on the easy pathway, start
the little streams of interest your
way. Remember big rivers grow from
tiny brooklets. Every Var savings
stamp you own starts an interest
stream flowing your way.

is a government bureau, operated

THE RI7DGET SYSTEM AND THE
RESPONSIBILITY OF THE
REPUBLICAN PARTY.

The recent elections placed upon
the republican party of the nation and
of Montana a great opportunity and a
great responsibility. The war has
placed upon our people burdens of tax
alton more onerous than any genera
ton of Americans have known-bur-
dens, the complete reduction Of which
will require, even under the most fru-
gal and economical management,
many, many years. The public bust
ness must be conducted with that eff
ficiency, and public property and in
situations must be maintained at that
high level of good order and condl-
ton exemplified in the conduct of ones
private affairs by sensible, competent
and honest men; to secure such re-
suits and to reduce the public debt
will require the utmost effort.
The republican party is responsible
for such action or non-action as shall
be initiated in Montana during the en-
suing two years. If the republican
legislature fails to measure up to its
duties and opportunities it may be
som time before it will get another
opportunity; civic progress in this
state will be delayed.
The budget system is before the
legislature! it is before the congress
of the United States; the best ele-
ments of all parties are in favor of it;
it Is conceded on all sides that this
system put in vogue in the national
government would save many millions
of dollars annually; the same is true
of the state Of Montana; there is no
rational systematic, scientific system
of administration of the state finances
at the present time.
Each department Of the state gov
eminent goes before the appropria-
lions committee Of the houses Of the
legislature amidst the rush and con'
fusion of a short session and gives
the estimate of that departments cash
required under conditions that affore
no opportunity of investigation, o.
thorough examination. The result il
that there is unnecessary and careles!
expenditure in all departments. Thu
budget system is operated by means
of a board of control; all department
of the state government have to pre-
sent their estimates to this board
sufficient length of time before tn
legislature meets to enable the boar
to make investigation and repor
thereon to the legislature. All claim
against the state, and they are usual
ly ~innumerable, have to be %presente
to this board several months befor
the legislative session in order tina
each claim may be thoroughly invest
igated; the board of control goes be
fore the appropriations committee t
combat excessive claims, demands {
estimates with first hand informatio
and accurate knowledge. The boar
of control also makes constant su
veys of the numerous departments ar
institutions of the state in al e

THE RIGHT SPIRIT.

Secretary L. E. Jones of the Cham
Der of Commerce is at work on a plan
to rent a large and equip it
with writing tables, reading matter,
s%ettees, ETC., for the use Of soldier
boys returning from service, where the
boys will be made welcome and en-
tertained until such time as they can
find employment and get re-instated
in everyday life. This move is a most
laudable one and should receive the
hearty support of every business man
in the city.
The Anaconda Copper company at
Butte are showing the same brand of
patriotism and has opened a large res
taurant and lodging house and has an
nounced that it will lodge and feed all
discharged soldiers who are without
means until such time as they a OBJ

Commenting on the situation gen.
eral the Record Herald of Helena has
the following:
"The governments policy of demob-
ilizing the army of two million men
as fast as possible, and without any
adequate provision for the return Of
the soldiers to civil industry will throw
a greater and greater burden upo1
every community in the United States
and particularly upon those places
where there are large industrial en-
terprises such as the copper city
i, where the soldiers naturally will gath
er in large numbers seeking employ
ment.
!, "For over two months, ever sine
the armistice, the government has bee
warned day after day that the so
diers would surely form an army c
unemployed in this country unless tn
administration took some practices
steps to prevent that. However, b
yond an address by President Wilso
on the subject and a lot of talk b
governmental understudies, nothin
has been done. No plan has been p'
in practice to meet the situation.
"To make matters worse the go
eminent has been ~discharging soldie:
