PLEA FOR ECONOMY AND BUDGET SYSTEM
 IS MADE BY MELLON
Nation Cannot Afford To Be Extravagant, Says New Secretary Of Treasury;
 Asserts U. s. Finances Sound

WASHINGTON. March S.-Secre- tary Mellon of the treasury. in his first official statement, made public tonight in the form of letter to bankers. appealed to the people gen erally'' to stand for rigid economy in governmental expenditures and urged immediate establishment of a nation al budget system At
 He discussed the nations financial condition. declaring that the showing made in the last eight months had been particularly encouraging" |" There are. however. heavy drains to come on the treasury thIs monyu ana next, he said, and these require more short term certificates of indebted ness, announcement of which he made coincident with the letter
 Should Avoid New Expenses
 "The nation cannot afford extrava- gance," he asserted. "and So far as possible it must avoid entering new fields of expenditures. Figures on cur rent operations of the government show that the countrys finances are sound. but that the situation calls for utmost economy.
 -The heavy requirements of the government on account oI necessary expenditures. including interest and sinking fund on the public debt and the maturity of $7,500 900. 900 in short dated debt in two years or thereabouts make it imperative that the greatest care and economy be exercised in matters affecting government expendi- lures.
 '-The people generally must become more interested in saving the govern ment's money than in spending 1t. A thorough going national budgesssystem must be established and the govern ment's expenses brought into relation with it's income"
 Surplus For War Debt
 He expressed the belief. however, that the first nine months Of the ifs cal year. or 10 March 31. would show that the treasury had made ends meet with a slight surplus to use against the great war debt. Payments on the war debt must be slow, he said, ex- blaming that the heavy payments to the railroads would hamper previous plans to lower the dept.
 Issues Of certificates announced will aggregate S400.O00,000 and will pear interest at o12 per cent, halt having a maturity date, Of one year and tke remainder for six months. Both issues will be accepted in pay ment of income and profits taxes.
 In notifying bankers, Mir. AMellor said he felt it his duty to inform them of the probable requirements of the government and to say something concerning its financiar s--=sram. He said $500. 1000 in certificates must oe paid off March 15 ana an addI- tiOnal S11S.000.00O a month later Be sides. there is to be paids the semi Annual interest of about s75.000 GOO on Liberty bonds March IS.

BERLIN, March S.-(By the Asso- ciated Press)-Newspape today dis cuss quietly the breaking off of the separations negotiations. They are virtually lEau:mCu us in describing the enforcement of the penalties as a vio- lation of the peace treaty They ad- wise the populace to meet events with compOsure.
 The Deutsche Allgemeine Zeitung. organ Of Hugo Shines, the capitalist says:
 "GermanY's proposals were rejected with cold scorn before the allies ex- amined them in detail. The French have the opportunity, under pretext of enforcing the penalties of taxing pos. session of Germany's coal and taking the first steps in their plans of des- truction- But they soon will learn these measures are of as little use to them as to the rest of civilization. Germany can confidently await the tide of events"
 Germania says:
 Says Germany pefenseless
 'The conference places the true sentiments of the entente in the right light, and this led to most ruthless violation of defenseless Germany for mere nothing"
 Xorwaerts and Die Freiheit, both Socialist organs, see in the breaking of negotiations "a victory for the cap- italists over reason" and consider the coereive measures the limit of the allies economic and political impo- tence and perplexity. The Volks Zeitung expresses the opinion that the answer of Premier Lloyd George to the German proposals implies that he would like to negotiate further while Germany is under the pressure of the penalties.
 Chancellor Fehrenbach at the reas- sembling of the reichstag today an nounced the breaking off of negotia- tions at London. He said:
 Penalties Secured By Force"
 The allies have begun to put the penalties into effect This means an act of violence. for penalties have nothing to do with the usual princi- ples of right. The conditions imposed on us are to be secured by force. This rupture can neither be disguised nor justified by legal deceptions.'
 Open discussion cannot begin. it was announced, until the return of Dr. Simons. the foreign minister
 Chancellor Fehrenbach declared the allies admitted that the impossible was expected of Germany in the Paris conference. If they persist" he said the evil can only be enhanced. The
