The association has been asked both

is about $50 feet high and has a
circumference of about rs feet.

When Greek meets Greek there

Los Angeles, which boasts no less than
five one-time mademoiselles who chose
to follow their soldier husbands across
the a and a continent they had new
er seen before to a home in sunny
California.
Regular meetings are held by the
club at which, it is to be presumed,
the main topic of conversation is what

When the A. E. F. packed all Its

for home loaded down with German
helmets, it left behind in France 5000
little wal orphans which it had adopt

Now the A. e. F. is back home again
and hundreds of thousands have en-

Legion. Consequently, with the mem
cries of the letters of petite Jean AND
petite jeanette fresh in their minds,
the one-time godfathers of the expe-
dictionary forces are again adopting
the war orphans of France.
So far ten posts have adopted Or
phans, and a heavy enrolment on the
list of godfathers is expected. 1t costs
only $40 to maintain an orphan for a

BIG SAVING is
RESPITE BUDGET VETO

Washington, Sept.-In spite of the
veto by the President of the budget
bill at the close of the last session of
Congress, the House has provided for
a change in its own rules which will
effect a coordination in the system of
making expenditures which will have
a salutary effect in bringing about
governmental economy.
A resolution adopted by the Repub-
lican House makes three important
changes, as follows:
1t centers in one Committee on APP
preparations, composed of thirty-five
members, the authority to report all
appropriations and takes from the
Committee on Agriculture, Committee
on Foreign Affairs, Committee on In
dian Affairs, Committee on Military
Affairs, Committee or Naval Affairs,
Committee on Post Office and Post
Roads, and the Rivers and Harbors
Committee, the authority now vested
in those committees to report appro.
priations.
1t requires that any Senate amend
ment to a general appropriation bill
originating in the House shall be first
submitted to the House for a separate
vote before such amendment be agreed
to by the managers on the part of the
House.
It permits the raising of a point of
order at any time on any appropria-
ton item carried in any bill or joint

resolution reported by any committee
not having jurisdiction to report ap-
preparations.
1t is at once apparent that the prin-
cipal change in the rules of the House
IS the one c%entering all appropriations
in a single committee. This change was
strongly urged by practically every
person who appeared before the COM
mittee as being a very important and
necessary step, if in the future appro-
priations are to be made with intel
ligence and economy.
1t was the intention of the farmers
of the Constitution that Congress, and
Congress alone, should be responsible
for appropriations of public money.
The Constitution provides:
No money shall be drawn from the
Treasury but in consequence of appro-
p%riations made by law, and a regular
statement of the accounts on the re-
ceipts and expenditures of all public
money shall be published from time
to time.
Cart. l, sec. 9, par. y.
Under this plain mandate of the
fundamental law of the land, Congress
should be satisfied with the adoption of
nothing short of the very best plan
that can be devised for making appro-
p%riations out of the Treasury of the
United States. The rules of the House
governing it's procedure in this respect
have been changed from time to time.
The Committee on Ways and Means
of the House was created as a select
committee in 1889 with jurisdiction to
report revenue, appropriation, and
banking and currency measures. 1t
was made a standing committee in
1902 and continued with that juris-
diction over all revenue, a%ppropria.
ton, and banking and currency legis.
%lation.
All appropriations in the beginning
were reported in one bill The number
of the regular annual appropriation
bllls gradually increased until by 1886
it had reached the present number Of
thirteen regular appropriation bills anc
one or more deficiency appropriation
bills.
The jurisdiction of the Committed
on ways and means was divided il
1905. Up to that time, as has beer
stated, it had control over all revenue
appropriations, and banking and cur.
rency bills. In 1865 a Committee or
Appropriations and a Committee or
Banking and Currency was created. Tt
the Committee on Appropriations wa.
given jurisdiction to report the gen
eral appropriation bills and to thu
