A National Ceremony.

Congress is divided over the character of the
coming inaugural ceremonies. There is no little
opposition to having them overelaborate and ex-
pensive. There is feeling that the present plans
are rather flamboyant.
The attitude of opposition to this is natural un-
der present conditions, and is worthy This is a
time of readjustment, of liquidation and of more or

Representative Wood, Of Indiana,
wants Congress to set up a central
purchasing agency to do all the

puts such an Institution into exIs-

as successfully as such organizations
function for successful corporations
