BIG BUDGETS CUT HARD

Congress has set the stage for the
first wholesale decapitation of war
workers from the Federal payrolls
and the report of the House Appro-
priations Committee on the sundry
civil bill tomorrow is expected to
produce the first of a series of shocks.
BY the simple expediency of declin-
ing to appropriate funds for various
government activities Congress will
force these agencies to suspend their
functions.
Branches of the Department Of La
Dor. the Council of National Defense
and other departmental agencies
which sprung into being to meet the
emergencies created by the war have
had their appropriations pruned to a
bare tithe of what they thought nee
essary to continue their programs.
Knife Used Vigorously.
A subcommittee of the House Com
mittee on appropriations has con-
sidered all of these estimates care
fully and the pruning knife has been
welded vigorously.
When the bill is reported to the
House within the next few days. it
will be found that the committee has
so reduced the amounts desired by
various bureaus that unless amend
ments are made they will be forced
to suspend.
Lack of funds will mean that thou
sands of war workers in these vari-
Gus bureaus will be automatically
dropped, when the existing appropfla-
tions have been exhausted.
While no official statement is forth
coming from the committee, it is I'M
= IL.
government departments upon a
normal basis as rapidly as possible,
and that the reduced appropriations
for the activities in question is the
first concerted step in this G/ection.
The bureaus affected are those which
have been operating upon conditions
created solely by the war and the
committee is said to take the position
that their functions can be properly
integrated by the regular government
departments, and that others can en-
tirely cease to function without any
handicap to the governments after
war program.
May be Opposition.
There will not be an unanimity
of opinion in the House as to the
necessities of practicing these
economies and healthy opposition is
expected when the sundry civil bill
is debated upon the floor.
Department heads have had an
inklinG that some radical slashing
OF appropriations was imminent, al
though the Appropriations Commit
tee has been proceeding with the
hearings on the bill in executive
sessions.
Should the House accept the
recommendations of the committee
without material anne endment. it is
certain that the departments will
make a fight in the Senate to have
the amounts restored in order that
the bureaus affected can continue
their operations for another year at
least.

EaGB vlDGlSsbGSS NBala Headaches Caused by Acid-StolllacIl

There is 6 much closer connection between the stomach and brain than most people imagine. It is because of this close connection that indigestion, oelching, sour, gassy stomach and are sure signs of acid stomach-are so often followed by ievera attacks of binding, splitting headaches.
 Nervousness, sleeplessness, irritabil- ity ,mentaldepregsion, ,relancholia and many other disorders which affect the brain can also nearly always be traced to the same acid-stomach.
 So often you hear people say "I am 80 nervous l think I'll fly to pieces" or "Itseems 1 never get good nights sleep any more, my nerves are all on edge" Little do they dream that acid stomach is the direct cause of their troubles because very often there are no pains in the stomach at all. So you zee, you can't always judge an acid stomach condition by the way your -eomach, itself, feels.
 If you are weak, nervous, unft-if you are not up to your old time form if you lack your accustomed enthu- siasm, energy and pep-make this test and see if it isn't acid-stomach that is holding yoo back - robbing you of your health, strength and vigor. Get | big box of EATONIC-the wonder full modern medicine that so quickly puts an acid stomach to rights. It is in the form of pleasant tasting tablets that you eat like bit of candy.
