Nebraska Congressman Talks
at Aurora on Peace Treaty
and U. S. Waste
During War.

Aurora, Neb., Oct. 20.-(Special.) J
Congressman NJ. o. Mclaughlin
of the Fourth Nebraska district ad-
dressed large audience here on the
proposed peace treaty. and declared
his belief that, while fully two-thirds
Of the American people favored the
league of nations idea 10 months
ago, there has been a complete re-
vulsion of sentiment. He attributed
this change to the secretive manner
in which the peace conference was
conducted and the arbitrary action
of the president in attempting to
force his ideas upon congress.
While admitting that the ratihca-
ton of the treaty without amend
ments is likely. he insisted that the
three principal reservations should
be made. SIT
He declared that in his judgment
one of the principal purposes of the
proposed league is to strengthen
the control of certain European
powers over their colonies.
All of these propositions were
heartily applauded.
He called attention to the incon-
sistency of the administration in in
sisting upon an army of $4,000 men
if the league is to avert future war,
the sending of American troops to
Silesia and Siberia. and the recent
landing of United States marines in
Italy without authority of con-
gress.
Answering a question in regard
to what he knew personally con-
corning charges OF waste of war
materials, he told Of having seen
$4,000 Dodge cars exposed to the
weather and practically ruined at
Baltimore. and had been informed

ANDREWS FINDS
FLAWS IN BUDGET
SYSTEM PLANNED
Nebraska Takes Exception to
Appointment of Men to
Office for Life at
I $4,000 a Year.

Washington, Oct. 20.-(Special
Telegram. m.)-Agreeing with the
general provisions of the so-called
bulge: BILL" now before the house,
but taking exception to certain fea-
lures of the measure as to the ten
ure of Office of appointees, Con-
gresham w. Z. Andrews of the
Hastings district Monday held the
close attention of the members as
he discussed the budget system out
of an experience of nearly 20 years
as auditor of the treasury depart
flent.
Mr.. Andrews said he was not par
ticular y impressed with the advis-
ability of appointing men at $4,000
year for life, as provided in the
bill, when these same men are now
serving for $4,000 and less. He said
they were not likely to resign if the
salary was not increased. He paid
particular attention to the account
ing department, in the course of his
speech, in view of his long service
in the treasury department, calling
the attention of the committee OF
the whole to one of the sections of
the bill which provides that the six
auditors now serving under the ex-
listing law are to be transferred to
the new department at their present
salaries and thereby legislated into
permanent Office.
Mr.. Andrews wanted to know
who could yvouch for the efficiency
Of the men who are thus to be
placed permanently on the roll of
the government with salaries ag-
gregating $43,500 annually.
He commended the bill in provid-
ing that the comptroller general
should appoint, remove and fix the
compensation of such officers and
employees in the department as may
be provided by congress, and said
that under such a statute the ac-
counting system of the national
government would begin a new Ca
reer a~d government accounting
lifted from the plans of routine
clerical duties to the professional
standard that would challenge the
commendation Of all for efficiency
