Inauguration Days, As Rule,

at hitching post meanwhile, then set off for his Virginia home at Monticello <~ ADAMS LEAVES TOWN
 It also appears that Jefferson had planned a more elaborate inauguration ceremony than actually was held. He was escorted into the city by troop Of cavalry the day before taking lodgings at Conrad & McKunn's," on New Jersey avenue, 200 steps from the capitol, where he was to take the oath. A coach and four was en route from his home to carry him to the steps of the capitol next day, but failure of "Jacky Eppes. to get through with it in time because of muddy roads, left MT. Jefferson afoot, and he walked with friends from his lodging next day to his inauguration.
 Jefferson was accompanied by his predecessor John Adams. In protest against this action of the House in set ting a tie by election of Jefferson, Pres
 dent Adams left the city at daybreak inauguration day
 President Monroe was the first execu- tive to take the oath of office on the east portico of the capitol. controversy as to whether the Senate or House chamber should witness the proceedings was settled by this decision to beg the
 issue, and President Harding, weather permitting, will take his oath in the same place. Otherwise, he will be conducted to the Senate chamber, for the House will not be in session.
 JOHNSON TURNOUT Aside from Jefferson's coach and four. which failed to arrive for his inaugura- tion, several Presidents have used con veyances in riding to the capitol. Jack son rode to the ceremony in a four horse phaeton fashioned from the tim bers of the old frigate Constitution, and with a picture of ship under full sail painted on the panels.
 "'A1together it would be a very cred itable turnout for Long Acre. said one contemporary writer. The phaeton was also used at Van Buren's inauguration to succeed Jackson, though the same writer notes that during his incumbency Jackson drove much behind "a high stepping. bony, old iron-gray steed," at- tached to a sulky presented by some ec- centric mechanic" which was made en- tirely out of "rough-cut hickory with the bark on." and had very much the look of Old Hickory himself'
 ! General Harrison, though he rode his horse to the capitol, returned to the White House in coach presented to him by "the whigs of Baltimore"

SYSTEM |S' SHOWING STRONGER
 HOUSE IS ANXIOUS.
Lower Branch, Over Obstacles, Attempting to Adopt "Ideal" Plan and Consider Ex-
 penses as Unit
By HUGH W. RonERTs Washington Bureau The Age-Herald
 5O0 navidsND RuiIziing


 Washington, February 27.--tSpeelal.)- The House is attempting, over great oo- stacles, to adopt the budget system to guide appropriation legislation.
 The institute for government research, on request of the correspondent of this paper, has prepared an analysis of what is termed the 'ideap' budget plan. It is briefly put as follows:
 That the financial affairs of the gov ernment shall be considered as a unit ta) The definite obligation shall be rlaced upon the chief executive, as head of the administration, of laying before the legislature each year a complete statement of the condition of the treas ury, the revenues and expenditures Of the government during the past and his estimate of the provision that should be made for the revenue and expenditure needs of the government for the year to come
 tb) This statement shall be considered in it's entirety by the legislature to the end that the two sides of the account, revenues and expenditures, may be con sidered in their relations to each other and to the state of the treasury, actual and prospective.
 That to this end the detailed exami- nation of the budgetary proposal shall be submitted to a single committee ana its conclusion embodied in single ap- propriation bill That adequate lmita- tions shall be placed upon the power or individual members of the legislature to modify proposals of the budget commit tee; and that provision shall be made for a controller and auditor general, who shall be independent of the administra- tive branch, whose duty it would be to examine critically the accounts of all re- ceipts and disbursements and render 10 the legislature report giving the re- suits of his findings and such recom- mendations as he may deem pertinent.
 These three features are absolutely necessary to secure a balanced budget. The adoption of any one of them, with out including the other two. while it wiii make for efficiency and prevent the waste of government funds, cannot pos siby achieve the best results.
