MASTERLY ECONOMY.

President Harding's accomplish
ments in the way Of reducing govern
ment eXpendit ure are beginning to
take a shape in which the figures
speak for themselves. Critics of the
administration have been saying that
much Of the reduction for which
credit has been given to Congress
was a reduction on paper only
meaning that cuts in the appropri-
alton bills would be offset later by
deficiency allowances. They would have
had to be offset this year to a con-
siderable extent, undoubtedly, but
for the Presidents determination to
restrain the spenders.
The estimates for 1922 were
prepared by the Wilson administra-
ton. There was no budget law in
effect then, and spendthrifts like Mr.
Baker and Mr. Daniels still had a
free hand. Secretary Houston asked
Congress for appropriations totalling
s., 259, 900, 600. Congress granted
much less, the appropriations made
amounting to a little more than S.
8OO,O0O,OO0.
But many hold-over obligations had
to be assumed by the Treasury along
with a few new obligations notably
charge Of Sl20,000,00O for the
better care Of the disabled veterans.
Secretary Mellon reported on August
5 last that the expenditures for 1921
% would run as high a. S4,554,000,
900.
AT this point Mr. Harding and Cen
eral Dawes stepped in. They told
the department and bureau chiefs
that operating costs must be scaled

That the National Guard in Yer
mont is flourishing and that it is
proving attractive, not only through
the reasons Of the younger men desir-
ing to do a service to their country
and State by serving in Wermont's
own regiment, but for financial rea-
sons combined with the above, is
evidenced by reports received from
the Acknowledgement, Brig-Gen. Her

shows that the federal government is
expanding large amount of money
for the maintenance of Vermont's
regiment. The payroll for the Ma
tional Guard of Vermont for armory
drills from January l to June 80,
1921, amounted to 21,22101. The
regiment was not fully organized
during this period and so the pay
roll from July l to December l will,
doubt, be much larger. The
federal government, under the pro-
visions of the National Defense Act,
is very generous to the National

ed that the government would find a
way to save S520,00O, 10000, bringing
the outlay for the year down to S4,-

estimates for 1922 recently the
President announced that further
saving of S94,OO0,OQO would be made,
reducing the 1922 total to $780,
100000. Since Congress appropriated
$780, 100000 and is now asked to

pendture for the year will be within
the appropriations.
