WASHINGTON, Dec. THE fun text
Of President Wilson'S message to the
joint session OF the senate and house
OF the Sixty-Sixth congress today fol-
lows:
ITO the Senate and House Of Repre-
sentatives;
II sincerely regret that cannot be
present at the opening Of this session
Of the congress. l am thus prevented
from presenting in as direct way as
| could wish the many questions that
are pressing for solution at this time.
Happily, | have had the advantage Of
the advice OF the heads of the several
executive departments who have kept
in close touch with affairs In their de-
tail and whose thoughtful recommends
tons I earnestly second,
In the matter Of the railroads and
tho readjustment of their affairs grow
ing out OF federal control, | shall take
the liberty at later date Of addressing
you,
II hope that congress will bring to a
conclusion at this session legislation
system That there should be one sin
gle authority responsible for the making
OF all appropriations and that appropri-
atoms should be made not independent
ly Of each other, but with reference to
one single comprehensive plan OF ex-
renditure properly related to the ma
tlons income, there can be no doubt.
| believe the burden OF preparing the
budget must, In the nature of the case
II the work Is to be properly done and
responsibility concentrated instead OF
divided, rest upon the executive, The
budget so prepared should be submitted
to and approved or amended by n SIN
gle committee OF each house OF con-
gress and no single appropriation should
be made by the congress, except such
as may have been included In the
budget prepared by the executive or
added by the particular committee of
congress charged with the budget Leg
islation
Another and not less important as
! poet OF the problem Is the ascertain
mcnt OF the economy and efficiency
with which the moneys appropriated
are expended, Under existing law the
only audit Is for the purpose OF Ascer-
| tanning whether expenditures have been
made within the appropriations, NJ

its immediate consideration to the
problem OF future taxation, Simplifi-
cation Of the income and profits taxes

most Importance that In dealing with
this matter the present law should not
be disturbed so far as regards taxes for

times be effectively productive OF rev.

A Hitch in Hell

I'm sitting her and thinking
OF the things I've left behind,
And I'd hate to see on paper
Just what's running through my
mind.
We've dug a million trenches
And cleared ten miles of ground
And a meaner place this side of He'll
know is still unbound.
But there's still one consolation,
Gather closely while I tell,
when we die we're bound for Heaven.
Cause we've done our hitch in Hell. ="
We've built million cook shacks
For the cooks to cook our beans,
We've stood a hundred guardmounts
And cleaned the magazines,
We've washed million mess kits
And peeled a million spuds,
We've strapped a million blanket rolls
And washed a million duds;
The number of parades we've stood
Is very hard to tell,
But we'll not parade in Heaven
For we've done our hitch in He'll
We've killed million rattlesnakes
That tried to take our cots,
We've shaken a million centipedes
From out our army socks.
We've walked a hundred thousand
miles,
And made a million camps.
We picked million cactus thorns
From out our army pants;
But when our work Is done
Our friends behind will tell.
When they died they went to Heaven
Cause they served their hitch in
He'll"
But when the final taps are sounded
And We lay aside our cares
And we do that very last parade
Right up that shiny golden stairs.
When the angels bid US welcome
And the bands begin to play,
Well draw a million canteen checks
And spend them in a day;
It's then old st. Peter will tell US,
Loudly and with a yell.
Just take a front seat, Devil Dog.
For you've done your hitch in He'll"

Gentlemen:
l am writing to you 80 can tell
you OF the pleasure have had in read
ing your papers down here in the
tropics. My mother sent me a few
OF your papers and was very glad
to get them. They brought back mem
ories OF the days when l was a resi-
dent OF the good old town. / think
this is the first time that the Chronicle
has been in this section of Cuba. I
have read some of the boys letters
from France saying that they found
the Chronicle there, and think you
will find that it has travelled all over
the world. It does a fellow good to hear
how the old town is and how it is i'm
proving. although there are a great
many of the boys in France and some
have been in great danger. But have
read about some OF my best friends
passing away who never reached
France and it makes a fellow feel
thankful to know he has been in this
great war and has come out safe.
guess you will remember when l was
a member Of old Co. B, now in France.
Well, l want TO give them a lot Of
praise. When l came into this outfit
was not like the rest Of the fellows.

because had been trained before. and
shall always stand up for Co. B of

This country down here is very
pretty but is very rocky. 1t is just
like summer down here. We do not
have much rain but it nearly blows
our tents down at times when a storm
comes up We have a few Delaware
boys with us but most all Of them are
from the western States. We have
the largest rife range in the world
here and I have already shot on it
and made sharpshooter's mark.
We are fed pretty good and have
plenty OF drilling to keep US in shape.
We expect to get back in Philadelphia
soon and will be mustered out.

I wish you would publish and II pos
sible send me a paper with II in it so
I can show the boys.
Hoping to receive your paper soon,
I am,
