Overhead Great Evil.

The members of the committee on
reorganization believe the matter OF
overhead is one of the essential evils
I'm the present system. 1t comes about
from the fact that there Is at present
A lack OF proper cooperation among
the departments, looking to the eco
nomical utilization Of such Office space
as is available.
THE Government, Of course. does
not pay taxes on its own property. al
though II has to pay taxes-indirectiy
ON such property as is rented. The
taxes are included In the rent. We
all want to do away with payments
of high rents.
There are many other ways In
which the centring of the Govern
ment activities will work for economy.
To have the Offices grouped for IN
stance. will save much time and trouble
in such interdepartmental communi-
cation as is required.
"The Congressional joint committee on
reorganization Is aiming TO work out the
realignment along impartial lines. We
are trying n look at the thing IN tho
brosdes possible way without favoritisrn.
II II seems right TO do certain thing
we want to do that thing-sorry, OF
course. II the ambitions Of some ind-
vidual go by the boards. but the Govern
ment comes first

Specdl Despatch TO THE NEW YogK HEaArc.
New York Herald Bureau,
Washington, u. C., June 10. {
Not less than s1.Oo0,000 day will
be saved to taxpayers of the United
States when the executive depart
ments are put on basis Of greater
efficiency" Walter F. Brown, chair
man Of the Congressional Joint Com
mittee on Reorganization, declared
to-day In an exclusive interview
given to THE NEW York HERALD.
THAT would be a minimum Of
s300,000.000 year-working days
considered--but It is the aim of the
committee in charge Of the work TO
exceed that figure If possible.
This is to be accomplished with
out any curtailment of the present
Government activities. Everything
the Government now is doing will be
continued. although perhaps not
through the same medium. II any
thins. it is the hope of the committee
to improve the service. which, it
should be obvious, will not be dim
cult.
Most OF this saving will be accom-
plished In the matter Of overhead
expenses. The preliminary survey
made by this committee shows that
stupendous waste is resulting from
the present clumsy organization,
which seems to have Just developed
without rhyme or reason.
Take for example the matter Of
rentals. All over the country the
Government is renting buildings and
Offices. In Washington the amount
paid out for rent each year is stagger-
ing, but in many other cities it also
is the cage, and this while much Gov
ernment building space is going to
waste.

announcement today by the Michigan

body is taken here to forecast wide
changes in the clothing industry in
this section. The bureau leased a
mill and started manufacture a year
ago as temporary eXpedient to pro-
vide an outlet for unstable wool of
Michigan farmers. The enterprise
has proved profitable to the wool
growers and has resulted in lower
priced clothing to consumers. All
wool overcoats made by the board are
sold for S2s each. while woolen suits
retail at $50. The farmer has been
getting "A better price for his raw
wool and cheaper clothing. The agri-
cultural officials state that the state
has pasture room for million and q
half additional sheep.
Retail clothiers say growth of the
enterprise is bound to affect both re-
failing and manufacturing. but they
predict that the farm bureau will find
difficulty in obtaining city trade. as
the city dwellers demand "A wider

UNSPEAKABLE
GIFT TO man
Sermon Delivered at the Methodist
Church, Sunday, December
Is, 1921.
By the Rev. John A. Hoffman,.

when the fullness of time came,
God sent forth His Son, born of a
woman. born under the law, that he
might redeem them that were under
the law" (Gal. A: 45).
The question has often been asked,
If God purpcsed to effect mans re-
demption. why did he not send his
Son into the world sooner and thus
expedite the process? The answer
is given in the text. The fulness Of
time must come first There is a
sense in which mans limitations
are also Gods limitations. Man has
a part in the process Of redemption.
What is that part?
l. Man Must Feel Need of a
Savior.
Where the fact of disease is not
recognized by the patient, the ply
stefan labors in vain. The world
must be conscious OF the disease Of
sin before the Great Physician could
operate. At no time in history was
the scourge of wickedress SO keenly
felt as when Jesus was born. Rome
was the dominant nation of the
world. Her slaves outnumbered her
free people in a ratio of three to
one. Slavery was a universal curse.
Its attendant evils beggar descrip-
ton. The masters, being so over
whelmingly outnumbered, feared a
daily outbreak from the slaves. The
slaves, while clamoring for free
dom, feared the conquering power
of the rulers. immortality and crime
were stencil to human nostrils.
The fullness of sin ushered in the
fuilness OF time. The cry for a ply
scian had become universal one
The worlds redeemer must arrive.
II. Some Factors in the Worlds
Preparation.
ta) Highways. Rome. to es-
Gbiish her dominant position among
the nations, made numerous con-
quests. These conquests required
the construction of military roads.
Her sovereignty established, she
used these highways for CONNER
cial purposes In the course of
time these roads. built for war. be-
came avenues for the establishment
OF peace. The early disciples used
them in travelling as preachers of
righteousness.
OBJ. Law Jesus came to re-
Deem the world. To reach the world.
there must be, in addition to roads,
laws for the physical protection OF
the disciples in their travels be-
tween Countries. Paul took advant-
age OF these laws when, to escape
the fury of the mob at Jerusalem,
he appealed to Rome.
(c) Language. In order to
preach the Gospel to all the world,
the disciples needed the means OF
communication. Rome, in giving to

form of infidelity. 1t reached us
climax during the Napeleonic wars
when it lost its power because OF
its essential immortality. Its pro-
tagonists were wicked men. Even
that ghoul, Frederick the Great,
could not endure the vile converse
lions of Voltaire, and that great
French liberal was sent back to the
land of his birth.
Christ is the remedy for the
worlds ills. To the slave and TO
all that are weary he says; come
unto me, all ye that labor and are
heavy-la laden, and / will give you
rest" Therefore we confess with
the disciples of old: Master, TO
whom shall we go? Thou hast the
words of eternal life"
