NEARLY THREE TIMES AS MUCH MONEY
EXPENDED ON LUXURIES AS ON EDUC ALTON

Seven hundred and siXty-three mil
lion dollars was expended on public
school education. As there We're 20
Sj3,6O0,516 children in the public
schools this means that only $36.6O
was expended on the education Of each
child in public schools. ON tho other
hand, the total estimated expenditures
for luXuries was $22,700, 100000, ac-
cording to a statement Of the secre-
tary of the treasury in an open let
ter on Estimated Expenditures for
LuXuries," dater June II, 1920. The
people spent twice as much for au-
tomobiles as for education; practi-
cally three times as much was spent
on cigarettes, cigars and tobacco; ST.
000, 900 was spent on candy alone
as compared with s76S 900 on edu-
cation: while an additional S350,OOO,-
600 for soft drinks brought the total
of these items up to nearly twice as
much as the total for education. The
amount for luxurious foods" $1,000

100000 together with luxurious serv-
ices" $4,000, 900, 900, comes to sS,0O0,'
100000, or 10 times as much as eX-
pended for the education of children
ia the public schools. The amount
on luxurious food alone is six
times as great as the total budget
for education"
The secretary Of the treasury, in
his open letter of June II, 1920, says;
Opinion will differ as to whether
many of these articles should be class
ed as luxurious, and whether ex-
penditure for them is unwise or ex-
travagant Expenditure in reason
able measure on many of the articles
would not be regarded as luxurious
or wasteful, but expenditure in such
volume on any Of them and the ag-
gregate expenditure for such things
and services would, / imagine be re-
garded as unreasonable and extra
VACANT especially in view of the pres
