MOVING PICTURES,
Alice Joyce as a Flirt.

The science OF Irritation with It's
sharps and flats, It's lifting or left
eyebrows, its coy chances, its demure,
shrinking and sidewise glances, is all

theme at last on the screen. Vita

This production is entitled 1.-THE

Beatrice, using all the arts and arti,

u. 5. Forced Into World
Leadership, Says Lansing

- WASHINGTON, Jan. 2S.-The United
states, Secretary Lansing declared to-
day IN report to the senate. has come
as a result Of the war and through no
self-effort "into q position Of economic
preponderancc quite comparable to that
winch was coveted bv Germany and
winch she sought to attain by means
OF aggression and force"
The report, which was in response to
Senate resolution inquiring Of the
heads Of the several departments The
steps taken to promote the foreign
trade OF the United States. expressed
the belief Of Mr.. Lansing that ths
State department. especially that por-
non devoted to trade problems, must
be completely reorganizod.
One OF the principal recommenda-
ttionss made to the Senate in the report
is that the diplomatic ard consular
services be brought closer together
and given an interchangeable charac
ter. Another is that means be pro-
vlded for promotion Of consuls general
and diplomatic secretaries to the grade
OF minister. thereby obtaining the
services of trained men.

LEGISLATORS Seek
TO Shed More Light
On Budget Making
Amendment to City Charter
Introduced Providing for
Early Publication of Es-
Inmates for Departments
Stat Correspondence

Dt0U correspondence
ALBANY, Jan. 2s.-To bring out into
the open the various stages of budget
making in New York City an amend
ment to the city charter was introduced
to-day by Senator James J. Walker,
Democratic leader. and Assemblyman
w. [. Simpson, of Brooklyn. Walter T.
Arndt, secretary of the Citizens Union,
which is backing the bill, said that it
would insure the publication of the
budget in such form AS to make read
lily available the information it CON
tans.
The bill provides that departmental
estimates, representing requests for
appropriations By departmental heads.
shall he published in "The City Rec
ord" not later than September 20. In
the past, while such estimates have
been published in "The City Record" it
was frequently too late to be of any use
to the public. The early publication, it
was contended, would afford the public
bertcr opportunity to acquire timely
information as a basis for requesting
appropriations omitted by department
amounts.
The bill said Mr.. Arndt, "makes
important changes in the form in which
the budget is presented to the public in
order that all information as to pro-
posed changes may be easily available
for comparison and information as the
budget making proceeds. Heretofore
each form of the budget has been pub
lished separately without reference to
changes, making necessary tedious
and slow line to line comparison with
preceding publications if any inforraa-
tlon as to changes is to be obtained.
At present the obvious purpose OF
ubilcations-t the budget may be
matter of accessible record and that
the public may be apprised of changes
as the budget making proceeds--is not
carried out. The several publications
become, therefore, instead of an aid to
informaton rather a means Of conceal
ing changes buried in mass of figures.
Under. the proposed amendment the
tentative budget would show as to each
line or item not only the appropriation
or the previous years and the amount
asked for in departmental estimates,
but it would also show every addition
or omission"
