WILSON ADMINISTRATION
STILL MONEY MAD

Special to State Record:
Washington. d. {. December It
The Democratic Administration il
exposing one more of it's efforts al
deception. All through the eight
years of the Democratic regime pro-
misses and pretenses of economy have
been followed by the utmost extra
yagance. When the Republicans fin
ally came into control of Congress in
1919 they proceeded to cut down the
demands for appropriate tions on the
part OF the Democratic Adminstra-
ton and succeeded in eliminating
Items aggregating 2,5O0,0O0,OOO, The
Democrats denied that this accom-
plishment had been attained and in
the National platform adopted at San
Francisco asserted:
Claiming to have effected great
economies in Government expendi-
lures the Republican party can not
show the reduction OF one dollar in
taxation as corollary OF this false
pietense."
Now the Democratic Administration
i once more asking for appropria-
tons, and in the estimates recently
submitted making recommendations
Tor the legislative, executive and ju-
dicial branches of the Government,
comprising practically all Of the ad-
ministrati9e departments at the Ma
tional Capital the total appropria-
tons asked for next year are $50
UO,Oo0 IN excess OF the cost for the
present year.
In other words, when all the coun-
try is demanding economy the Will
sor Administration is asking for in
creased appropriation After the
Republicans had cut two and one
half billion dollars out of the dem
ands during the past two years and
the Democrats had denied that any
saving had been accomplished, the
Departments are now asking for the
ordinary routine administrative work
of the Government $30,000,0O0 more
than was appropriated last year
II viii DO remembered that the
Republicans IN their National plat
form iaade no promise oil immediate
r1 ductior IN taxes They did pro-
mise economy in expenditures, but
they called attention to the fact that
the extensive bureaucratic Sy
he Democratic administration had
/ udl up and he interest bearing debt
V vhich had been incurred would re-
quirt appropriations which could not
be Immediately reduced. neceSsitst
jnS. therefore, temporary continu-
ltiol % the high rate OF taxation.
The Republicans were perfectly
frank with the voters OF the coun-
Try. declaring this state OF affairs
before the votes were cast The
Democrats eudeavorcd to deceive and
made 3 pretense Of trying TO save
pablic funds at the same time tha+
they were engaged in cxlrayagauce
and waste
Once more the Republicans IN Con-
81 ess are confronted by the task Of
studying minutely all Of the various
items in the requests for appropria-
tions in order to determine where
reductions may be made without i'm
psirmeut of the public service The
coming session OF Congress will be
2 short one and there will be little
time 20 give TO extensive work of
tits sort.
