be tried by the Department of Labor
in the districts in which they were
arrested, and those ordered deported
will be sent to New York. Mr.. Can't
netti said that should necessity re-
quire the use of additional space at
New York or in the districts to house
the radicals awaiting deportation,
steps will be taken to secure camps or
other facilities from the war or other
departments that might have suitable
accommodations. He added, however,
that as additional stations would cause
extra expense he believed Congress
would grant the money for the re-
opening of Ellis Island station, in its
entirety so that all Of the aliens could
be housed there.

Reduce Appropriations to
Billion Below Estimate
10 Avoid Serious Finan-

Shows Way to Cut Prices
Republican Leader TO Fight
Pork Barrel Legislation
Vigorously in the House
Ns,r York Tribune
TaShina naton RuredM

WASHINGTON. Jan. 6.-Notice WAS
served on the House of Representatives
to-day by Republican Leader Mondell
that he will vigorously oppose pork
barrel" legislation at this session OF
Congress as we'll as any effort to ex-
seed. in the usual appropriation bills
for the fiscal year 1921, the estimates
submitted by the executive depart
ments.
The Republican leader specifically
named the river and harbor and pubic
buildings bills. two of the favorite
pork barrel measures, and came out
against increases in pay for the army,
navy and civil list He pointed out
that estimates of expenditures and OBJ
ligatiou of the government for 1921
nut the outgo at about $4,000, 100000,
while the income for the same period
is estimated at only $4,000, 100000. He
has suggested. he said, a cut in ap-
propriations below the estimates of a
81 .oo0. .ooO. 900 or better $3.50, 900, 900
Il the country "hopes to avoid serious
financial difficulties"
There are at least three compelling
reasons" said Mr.. Mondell, why we
must economic. why we must reduce
our appropriations in excess of a bill
ION below the estimates, and why, hav-
ing done that, We must refuse TO ap-
propriate for objects and purposes not
included in the estimates unless they
are absolutely imperative.
First, we cannot do otherwise with
out doing violence to a budget policy
which, as members OF the House, we
have approved; second, we cannot fol-
low any other course without nullify
ing all of our professions and our ef-
forts to reduce the high cost of living;
third. we must follow this course or
we face a deficit at least three times
as great as our yearly total OF ex-
penditures prior to the war. We can
not increase taxes; We should not issue
bonds; there is no course open to US
but to economic to the limit"
The real test of how far the House
viii be willing to support Mr.. Mondell's s
position will not come until one of
Ire big appropriation bills reaches the
door or a pork barrel" measure is
reported out of committee. Both the
viyers and harbors committees are
ausy with bills and evidently purpose
10 bring them before the House in
due time.
