washington, Jan. 6.-Declaring thai
the new year should bring to the gov
ernment's finances a program of the
strictest economy, Joshua w. Alex
ander, who was recently appointed
secretary of commerce by President
Wilson to succeed William C. Red
field. resigned, today gave out a state
ment endorsing a national budget sys-
tenn. AS a member of the Sixty-siX, h
congress Mr.. Alexander gave his hear
ty support to the budget bill, which
was passed at the extra session.
The statement follows:
In view of the tremendous in
crcases in our national expenditures
every effort should be made TO secure
economy in expendi .ures and to elimi-
nate unnecessary bureaus and dupli-
cation of service. To my mind only the
establishment of national budget
system will introduce economy and
efficiency in the government
With expenditures for the coming
fiscal year running into six billions,
there is no other way out but to econ
omize without limitation. The coun-
Try faces financial problems as seri-
Gus as during the war As for dupli-
cation of service, | find that there
are for example, ten bureaus collect
ing information on the consumption of
coal; six on the export of coal, and
six on the import of coal,
"The Good budget bill, for the
greater part embodies my views as re-
CARDS the necessary legislation to Gre
ate the system, and / sincerely hope
this bill or one including it's general
features will become a law before the
end of the present congress.
THE Good bill provides for sweer>
ing changes in the existing system of
making federal appropriations and is
calculated to reduce the cost of op

cheney.
Before the congress finally passes
a bill for the budget, l believe some
provision should be made eliminat-
ing legislative riders from money
bills, except in clearly defined cases,
and to meet emergencies.
The time has come when every
legislator must realize that the budget
matter is a national issue. There has
long been agreement on some form of
a budget. 1t is now time to effect the
speedy passage of a measure that will
be comprehensive in its provisions 1t
is a good thought for the New Year
to plan a program of real, far-sighted
economy

While members OF congress were

Grafton from the temporary head

ing, there was issued a written state
ment by S. Nurotva, who said he was
secretary to L. c. A. X. Martens, self
styled Russian ambassador, setting
forth general charges against depart
ment of justice agents. These charges
were that department agents had "ac-

now form the basis of the persecu-

for Martens, carefully read the Nuro-

to discuss 1t officially, said privately
that the situation to them was "hum-

The department of labor's request
for additional funds was based on a
recommendation of Anthony Caminet-

Justice had amassed such quantities of
evidence against the radicals taken in
the raids as mean at least two months
