EXPECT BUDGET BILL
WILL Be INTRODUCED
EARLY IN DECEMBER
PALLADIUM NEWS BUREAU

WASHINGTON, Oct. 15.-Congress
is soon to consider the first budget
bill in the countrys history in COM
pliance with the budget law which was
enacted a few months ago. The bill
will be introduced probably early in
December soon after the regular ses-
sion of congress begins.
A series of conferences have been
held between the house committee on
appropriations and Director Dawes of
the budget bureau, as a result of which
the work of the appropriations COM
mittee-will be reorganized to facilitate
the consideration of the budget
measure.
The act establishing a budget sys-
TEN provides for the submission OF
two budgets, one to follow the outline
of the old book of estimates and old
appropriation bills, the other to be
framed according to such arrangement
as the director of the budget, with the
approval of the president, may pre-
scribe.
Heretofore the committee on appro
priations has been subdivided into
thirteen subcommittee, one for each
! Of the II regular appropriation bills
and one for all deficiency appropria
| tion bills. As a rule such bills were
or logical lines.
| Old Arrangement Confusing
Most departments and bureaus got
part of their appropriations in one bill
| and part in others 1t was impossible
! - tai ha +44a 81 lot fr,y,c
| for any department or bureau without
| consulting two or more of the appro
! priation bills. 1t is needless to state
| that such an arrangement was imprac
teal, confusing to the department:
and to congress and incomprehensible
| to the public.
The appropriation bills for the de
partments of agriculture, navy anC
postoffice will remain substantially il
their old forms. Appropriations fol
the other departments. however, will
be considerably modified in form. Un
der these new forms some depart
lments will show an apparent increase
in appropriations as, for example, tn
interior department.
The pension bureau and bureau o
Indian affairs are under the interio
department but heretofore appropria
tions for these bureaus have beel
made in other bills. Now their ap
preparations will be included in tn,
department of the interior appropria
tion bill.
One new feature in the considera
tion OF the appropriations is the crea
tion of a subcommittee for the con
sideration of appropriations for al
executive agencies not connected wit
any particular department, known a
independent agencies.

LONDON, Oct 15.-Discussions of
the relations subsisting between the
United States and Great Britain flied
much space in today's papers
Aside from references to the prob
able visit of Prime Minister Lloyd
George to Washington and arrange.
ments for Mondays ceremony in West
minister Abbey, there was printed a
long appeal from prominent persons
interested in the Sulgrave institution
asking the public Immediately to raise
$4,000
This institution has been working to
bring about closer relations between
America and Great Britain and spon
sored the work of restoring the ances
toral home of George Washington
which was recently rededicated
The sum asked for by the institu
ton is desired as "a prelude to Amer
ican armistice day, and as a practica
movement toward better understand
ing. Commenting upon the appeal
the London Times remarked:
Though the moment may seem in
opportune for an attempt to raise
money the Importance of the objec
of the appeal forbids the withholding
of support for the great work the in
stitution is doing-a work worthy O
the fullest support which the patriot,
munificence of both countries cal
give"
Recommend Appeal
The Morning Post also warmly rec
commended the appeal, saying: "W,
lay the institutions request before al
who are concerned in averting tn,
possibility of estrangement, which il
these days of vague drifting may s,
ca silly arise"
Prime Minister Lloyd Georges pro
posed visit to America was comment
ed upon by the Daily Chronicle, whicl
remarked his departure would be de
pendent upon the Irish conference
i and expressed confidence that if tn
: prime minister arrived after the oper
ing of the Washington meeting, Amer
leans would attribute his tardiness t
a good cause. 1t added:
! THE Irish question is the kew t
all politics, in the sense that if it i
susceptible of solution so are all othe
problems. We can imagine no bette
overture to the Washington confer
ence than good news about Ireland.
