WASHlNDTON. l7.-Aftcr hcar-
ing charges OF !litrcatment and i'm
proper housing o! disabled cS-soldIcrs.
10000 OF whom were reported TO h.,
suffering In state hospitals and POOR
houses. the liousc Committee on Pub
lie Buildings and Grounds voted TO-
day TO report favorsbly the biil an
thorizins the government 10 lease a

erected In New York city by the

Under the bin al approved. the gov
crnmcnt would pny the state an an

H. III. RacSc. OF tho national OK
ccutiyc committee OF tho American
Legion. who appeared before the com
nitt.c t. discuss the condition of
disabled service men in State and

tally disabled men farmcd out 10 It's

vice. In the debate which followed his
criticism of the estimates as wholly un-
justified. he said that tho army and navy
estimates. i'll particular, were so cxtrava-
CANT that they cannot be described, being
five and half times the highest since
peace-timc appropriations OF 1916. These
estimates. he said. might be further swol-
len indefinitely by deficiencies which re-
suited from what he described as the War
Departments policy of recruiting up to full
strength. contrary to the understanding
that II should not be increased above tho
total Of the 17S,0O0 men contemplated by
the appropriation made at the last session.
Under tho policy pursued by the depart
ments in creating deficiencies, he said. the
money of the people was being squandered
in fragrant violation OF law.
BY carrying out the plan of economy
which he proposes, Mr. Mondell feels sure
the appropriations for the next fiscal year
can be reduced from the minimum named
by the Secretary of the Treasury to around
three and Il quarter billions. AS one de-
tail of his plan for reducing the volume of
taxes, he would reject Secretary Houston's
proposal for retiring with current rcve-
nues more than S3.600,Q0o,O0O OF the coun-
trys floating and bonded war debt. includ-
ing 100000 600 Victory notes. by January
30 1873, as placing an unnecessary burden
upon the people and business. With A
per cent of the net cost Of the war, ex-
Guiding foreign loans. already paid. he OPP
posed keeping up war rates of taxation for
the purpose OF reducing the public debt at
Il rate greatly in excess of the sinking fund
rate applied to the entire debt. While ia
VGring repeal of the excess profits tax and
reduction of the higher income surtaXcs,
Mr.. Mondell thinks it unnecessary to con-
it.art ~
ing expected tariff changes.
What the public particularly likes about
Representative Mondell's statements is that
il indicates determination OH the part OF
the responsible Republican majority to re-
duce the burden Of taxation. and it proposes
To do this. first. by removing the inequalities
OF the present levios. and. second, by in
shutting rigid economics in governmental
expenditures.
