Shows What War
Cost U. S. People
1NEFFICIENCY OF WAR AND
NAVY DEPARTMENTS ARE
SHOWN BY FIGURES

Washington, March 25.-1t is
possible now very closely to arrive
at what the war has cost tn people
of the United States in money, how
1t was spent and what it was spent
for. The vast sum of S54,948,O63,-
S92.O3 was appropriated to carry it
on.
Since the war ended cong ress has
passed under the control of the re
publican party. Committees ON war
ed. These committees are nearing
the end of thorough and widespread
investigation. And when their
Investigations are completed" said
Representative Edward E. Denison
of Illinois. in an exhaustive presen-
tation to the house of the facts so
far as learned, ''and the results are
fully disclosed to the American
people, there will be political, if
not an actual revolution. There
has been an orgy Of waste. extrav-
agance. Of dishonesty, of fraud in
the disbursement of these billions
taken by taxes and borrowed from
the people that not only surpasses
everything ever recorded in connec-
tion with any government. but ex-
ceeds the widest imagination"
Proven Expenditures
Boiled down the statements of
proven expenditures made by Mr.
Denison were as follows:
1. The treasury department re-
ports that it paid out between April
6, 1917. and February %, 1920. on
warrants of the various executive
departments, the sum of S36,91Y,-
! 100000. When from this amount
is taken the normal cost of con-
ducting the government eighty
three and one-third million dollars
a month"; the war cost to dGte has
been approximately $34.000,0O0 900
2. So far as made reports of
chairman of investigating commit
tees show that of the $500 ,O00,-
900 expended by the war fepart-
ment alone, practically $4,000, 900
900 has been wasted, lost or spent
on projects that were foolish, are
wholly useless now and were total
ly ineffective in prosecuting the
war.
3, There was spent at Charles
ton, Norfolk, Boston and other
places 100000 for port termi-
nails from which no ship during the
war ever sailed.
A. A port terminal was begun
in bog and swamp 10 miles up
the river from Charleston. and after
100000 had been spent in con-
struction it was found that ships
could not reach the terminal until
the river had been dredged for the
purpose.
5. For powder plants $160,O0O-
900 was spent and not a pound
was made in them. The one at
Nitro. West Virginia, cost $40, ,000,-
900 and was sold recently for
$4,000, 700, with the prospect that

Reputed to Be Miser With Vast
 Hoard Hidden in Her xA@ House.
WAS LOCAL TRADITION
Severa! Persons Arrested on Sus. pieon, Including Victims Son-in- Law, Said to Have Been Last
 :. to See Her Alive.

Hoopeston, 1ll.-Although they lived within few blocks of each other on the outskirts of this town, Mrs. Mary Buhler visited, her mother, Mrs. Sa- blna Cummings, only once a week-on Sunday, after church.
 Mrs. Cummings was noted in the section for her desire for solitude, which even her daughter could not invade.
 When the daughter called at noon one day recently she found the front door open. This had not occurred in the eight years since her fathers death. She saw also a light in the sitting room.
 She entered and found the body of her mother lying on a lounge. The old woman was dead. The body was covered with blood. The head had been caved in by a heavy blow. The room was in great disorder. Thought to Have Hoard.
 Mrs. Cummings, who was eighty two, was reputed to be the miser of Hoopeston, and her little twO-story frame house, which she owned, was known as the golden house." Natives frequently pointed it out to visitors with the remark:
 "The old lady has got thousands and thousands of dollars hidden there." It became a town tradition.
 When the husband of the aged wom- an died eight years ago a search of the house was made. In 1.-the way places more than $1S,OOO in cash was found.
 Subsequently the rumor spread that this was but a tithe of the wealth of 1 Mrs. Cummings. Not even her daugh- 1 ter could tell how much money was 1 in the house.
 The authorities had warned Mrs. l Cummings to put her money in bank. They told her the rather isolated sitll-

ESKIMO PAYS NO TAX
 BUT WHO'D BE AN ESKIMO?

"The Eskimo does not have to pay an income tax, but who wants to be an Eskimo?" asks the internal rev. enue bureau.
 However, though not wishin gto ex- change places with the Eskimo, the average American taxpayer has no hankering to pay Uncle Sam more than is due him.
 To these it will be of interest to learn that there are several exemp- tions and many deductible items on which income tax does not have to be paid. Expert advice may be needed on this matter. If you need such ad- vice come to the Tribune's income tax bureau, where assistance is freely at your service.
 During the first three weeks of the filing period, which ended last Satur- day, the Tribune's bureau gave out about 24,0O0 schedules. The bureau will be open at g o'clock this morning and the experts will be glad to answer all questions and help you file your return.
 All returns must be filed before 1 March 15, and it is advisable to get yours in as early as possible, as the final rush is bound to be great. The bureau closes at o'clock every week day except Saturday, when it closes at noon.-Chicago Tribune

 She refused all counsel and asked to be let alone. Last Seen by Son-in-Law.
 She was seen alive last at 5 80 on Saturday afternoon by her son-in-law, Fred Buhler.
 That night, between eight and ten o'clock, neighbors tell of seeing two men cross the fields and make for the house. In the course of the evening the same two men were seen to drive away in an automobile. Nobody saw them enter the house. The place was found to be thor oughly ransacked Not an article of furniture had been left untouched Tin boxes had been found opened and l their contents strewn about the rooms. Papers were thrown about, pictures smashed in an effort to locate money behind them.

Chicago.-The knightly and roman t1c crook stealing hearts as easily as he steals the family jewels abounds in fiction and upon the moving picture screen.
 But little is seen of him in real life. Veteran police reporters have long sought him in vain.
 But-at last an unusual type appears in the police records. Earl Winfield Loveday is his name. In vague way he suggests the Rallies" and "Arsene Lupin" of fiction. Although only tWen- ty-six years of age, he has lived sev- eral existences. To his friends in the upper stratum he is known as Earl Loveday, formerly popular mem- Der of Kenwood's younger set.
 To the police he is known as ''Win- nie" Loveday, "the greatest safeblower that has appeared in the underworld for twenty years," He Is in custody to-day after a seven months search on charges of being the leader of the bAnd of three men who blew the powerful vault oI t1e AlutliCitl1 IoI tSS company in Kenosha, stole S3O,OOO in cash and Liberty bonds and shot to death Policeman Tony Singapore in the ''get-away."

 The story was gathered from Billy Pinkerton, chief of the PinkertOn Ma tional Detective agency.
 "Loveday is one of the most remark. able criminals I have met" said the veteran Pinkerton. His technical ability would have won him a reputa- tion and money in legitimate business His uncanny mastery of safes and vaults is startling.

 "Then Carrie O'Neal, school teach CT and daughter of neighboring farm CT, came into his life. Immediately Loveday fell He wrote his friends that Earl Loveday was dead. That henceforth he was George R. Scott, farmer. All Clearwater folks attend ed the wedding in St. Petersburg, and beamed their happiness.
 "Then Loveday started to take his wife for trip to California. But we were closing in on him. At Hot Springs, where Loveday stopped to his old friends, we caught up with him. J. c.

R. R. RATES MUST
Be ADJUSTED
Dean of the Wharton School of
Finance on the Need of Good
Railroad Credit.
TO MAKE INVESTMENT SAFE
p~ortation Says Roads Must Be
Self-Supporting or Become
Bankrupt.

In an address on "The Railroad Puz
zle," delivered in Philadelphia, Janu-
airy 3, DIR. Emory r. Johnson, dean of
the Wharton School of Finance, and
one of the nations leading authorities
on railroad transportation, declared
that "after the first of March the com
panies must be self-supporting or be.
come bankrupt" Continuing, he said
"Can the railroads be successfully
financed and operated when they are
returned to their owners? For two
years the government has drawn upon
the public treasury to sustain the
credit of carriers.
"If the carriers avoid failure their
income must ove operating expenses,
maintenance and capital charges; if
the companies succeed to the extent
that is demanded in public interest,
they must o only be able to meet un-
%avoidable expenses, they must have
some surplus
If there is no income to be used in
part for betterments and in part for
building up a surplus or reserve fund,
the public will moi invest in the rail-
roads, their credit cannot be re~-estab-
lished and maintained and corporate
ownership and operation of the rail-
ways will fail.
"The income of the carriers is deter
mined by public regulation, and prop
erly so; but from this 1t follows that
the country must decide between a
policy of adequate to the
railroad corporations Of the future and
a policy of government ownership.
"The government is entitled to credit
for having given greater unity to rail
Eroad operation, both line and terminal.
1T has done much that the carriers
were Prohibited from doing. The pub
lie now realize that Cooperation of
