sion OF the congress adjourned. Repre-
sentative MOndell Of Wyoming. the Re.

the session said this:
1--WE cannot expect immediate reduc-
tions in the expenditures on behalf of
the soldiers of the great war, their
widows and dependents or those pen
sions for the soldiers OF other wars.
We cannot look forward TO a reduction
In the interest charge on the national
debt. :. The appropriations for the
sinking fund must continue"
In that same speech the Republican
leader also said:
"Our appropriations for the civil and
constructive activities of the govern.
ment will somewhat increase rather
than decrease"
Mr. Mondell was undoubtedly cor
rect. The appropriations for the next
fiscal year on account Of past wars will
be Just as large as they are this year,
