so keen that the maneuvers Of those

lead to an aggravation Of the other

Possibly it may he necessary to set a
limit to the number Of licenses issued
to those who would seek casual public

taxicab companies that receive orders
at fixed places. The chief object OF
licensing such vehicles is to afford the
public service in motor cars. Com.
petition may make for lower costs to
the vehicle users. but the prevailing

Of such effect. The Commissioners

The District Budget.

Designation of Auditor Donovan as
the budget officer Of the District of
Columbia under the new federal bud
get law is logical and gratifying. Mr..
Donovan is perfectly familiar with the
fiscal requirements Of the District,
through his long service as secretary
Of the board Of Commissioners and
later as auditor. He is In a position
to systematic the District estimates
in accordance with the national budget
scheme.
Under the new law all the depart
ments. including the District govern.
mates to the newly created budget
bureau before the 18th Of September.
which Is a month earlier than has
been hitherto the date Of submission.
Consequently the heads of the munic-
ipai departments have been directed
to prepare their statements Of their
financial requirements before the 1st
Of August, which would give six weeks
for the Commissioners to consider and
the budget ofYicer to prepare the fig
ures proposed for final report to the
budget bureau.
1t remains to be seen whether the
District will fare better than hereto
fore in the matter Of appropriations
under the new system. A material
advantage Of the budget plan IL to
make for greater certainty Of action.
The Districts estimates have been
uniformly in the past cut severely in
the House Of Representatives. leaving
the Senate to bring the appropriation
up to a closer approximation to the
real requirements Of the National
Capital. The hope is that under the
budget plan the actual needs, con-
servatively stated by the Commission.
ers. will be met without recourse to
this process Of cutting and pruning
and restoration and compromise that
heretofore has prevailed. 4 process
which leaves always a heavy arrears
Of urgent local needs to be met in
