The big tents of the Lowden
Presidential camp here were struck
last night and moved toward the
impending Indiana primary fight.
A brief stop will be made at Spring
field before proceeding % the State

Il do not want to leave Washing

appreciate the recent action of the
Republicans of Virginia in endors-
ing my candidacy, and the express
sions of friendship received on ev-
cry hand in Washington" said Gov.
Lowden, upon his departure last
night.
Il am extremely gratiied with
the determination expressed to me
by leading Republicans of all
shades of opinion that they will
permit nothing to transpire which
Will jeopardize our success in the
fall elections. Every step in NV
own campaign has been taken, not
so much with reference to primary
results as with reference to the ef.
feet 1t might have during the cam

To find himself a German, after

day gave him an insight into his
rating as a citizen.
Lehman was born in a room in
the German Embassy Building. His
parents were informed that IL an
American flag was in the room, the
son was an American. The flag was
in the room at his birth, and he
had always believed. as had his
parents. that he was a real Yank.
Nevertheless. to make sure, Leh-

Chicago, Ill, April ga leading
newspaper, or rather the leading
newspaper here. has a daily feature
called The Inquiring Reporter"
wherein five persons. picked out at
random on the streets, are asked a
question. This is aimed to reflect
a segment of local public opinion.
The questions are invariably harm
less, such as How many married
couples are happy?' or What are
you going to do on your vacation?'
Ten Languages Are Spoken.
II. Chicago's entire assoc, 900 popu-
lation were paraded and polled for
the beneft of this reporter. he
would have to speak at least ten
languages. He would find that ev-
man birth, every tenth Polish, ev-
cry fourteenth Russian. every six
teenth Irish, every twentieth negro,
every twenty-first Swedish, every
twenty-fifth Czecho-Slovakian, ev-
tieth Norwegian. every fiftieth Aus
trian. every fifty-second Hungarian.
every sixtieth Lithuanian. and a
scattering of Canadian, Danish.

The remainder would be Americans

Sen. King Scores Failure
To Take Over Efficiency
Bureau.
BIG PAY BILL PASSED
Service Appropriations Of
$122,242, ,849 Voted on
Conferees' Report.

Senator King. of Utah. yesterday
scored the action of the Senate in
dropping an amendment to the
executive and judicial
bill which would
have put the Efficiency Bureau i'm
mediately under the authority of
Congress. The Senate approved the
bill as reported from conference,
with, items totaling S122.242.S4s.
'Understrappers in government
departments, believing they are a
law unto themselves, absolutely
defy Congress" he declared. They
are building up a bureaucracy as
autocratic and inefficient as has
ever been known in the history Of
our own or other lands.
Some organization with author
ity to go into government depart
ments and discover ineficiency,
duplication and extravaganza
wherever it exists. and report their
findings to Congress so that we
may proceed to weed out the bar
nacles intelligently. is one of the
most pressing of our governmental
needs.
This bill, instead of providing
salaries for a bloated list of petty
office holders. ought without hesi-
tation to drop from $4,000 to 10000
of them from the payrolls. Not
only ought many to be dropped. but
those who remain should in some
way be made to do a full days
work.
Our country stands alone in the
civilized world today in its con-
stantly growing tendency for the
executive department to arrogate
to itself more power. while the
power of the legislative branch
steadily shrinks. The executive die
tates to US at will, extravaganza
fiourishes in all government depart
ments. and apparently we are help
less or unwilling to do anything
about it.
The Federal Employees Union. of
course, has opposed this measure.
as II has every other plan to Sc
cure more efficiency in government
departments. But the time has
come when it should be ignored
in the interest of efficiency and
economy"
