What II Means.

- VERYONE wants budget law. The average
l. man is as enthusiastic the specialist, but
he naturally has rather hazy notion Of lust what
the budget law is and how it will save federal ex-
penditures which will reflect a saving to him.
William H. Allen director of the Institute for Pub
lie Service, New York. in recent interview, gave
clear statement OF the working Of the law
If provides as he says, for three agencies which
not only check appropriations expenditures and
waste, but indirectly check each other 1t will not
merely provide budget, but a continuous audit Of
plans forspending, methods OF spending and results
of spending. There will be the budget director to
investigate needs before making recommendations
for appropriations; the comptroller general who will
compare work needed with work done and report
waste. and the bureau of efficiency to report ways
of improving service get better results for the
money expended.
The budget director will be under and answer
able to the executive authority; the comptroller gen.
eral will be responsible to congress and to the ex-
ecutve and the bureau of efficiency will be an agency
under control of the house. Mr. Allen urges also
that the comptroller general comptroller is al
ways classed with the watchdog-must be some
thing more than a 100 per cent accountant, some
thing more than bookkeeper who balances with
out question expenditure against revenues Make
him an operation auditor responsible for comparing
work needed with work done. He must discover
vestigates all accounts before making payments"
If he does not do this, he will be a comptroller
only in name.
1t is remarkable that the house appropriations
committee in its enormous work. has never had any
auditing or accounting agency of its to form
ulate, check. countercheck and compare department
estimates. 1t has had to go more less bndly
Deficiency appropriation demands have piled up and
there has been no agency to refuse overpayments,
to halt expenditures, to requests with cash
balances or even to show the appropriations COM
mittees just how deficiencies occurred and just who
responsible.
The budget law will provide all of this and
more. The real hub of its completely resultfu op-
Grafton must, Mr.. Allen points out, rest in the
comptroller, who being independent of all executive
control, rest secure in exact service to the
people who pay the money, through congress which
appropriates it. To do this fully he have the
powers outlined and be supported from executive
attack in their complete fulhllment.

1t is high time that the Amer
lean people should know that the
policy We have been following is
not only detrimental TO the Chinese
people, but to our own best inter
ests as well. In other words, we
are officially supporting a crowd of
reactionary military officials in the
far east, who are being used by
the Japanese against US. The en-
forced designations OF the liberal
members of the present Peking cab

brought about by three military
leaders-Chang Tso-ling, a former

Japanese in their operations in
Manchuria during the Russo-Japa-

This has the following bearing
upon the international banking
consortium which our government
is supporting: Up to the present
the consortium has refused to ad-
vance any money to China on the
laudable grounds that such money
would not be used for constructive
work, but would be used to line the
pockets OF the military chieftains

the liberal elements have been
completely kicked out, that the re-
dictionaries will begin a new drive
for Japanese industrial" loans
similar to what WAS done during
the war.
1t is unfortunate that our gov
ernment has not yet been able 10
evolve a definite and continuing
policy toward China that would en-
courage the Chinese people. who
are our friends, to establish a sound
representative government that
would replace the present farces at
both Peking and Canton. The
prese tnoverturn in Peking simply
means that there will be more trou-
BILE in China and possibly fighting
this summer. The Chinese people
will not stand for this crowd and
we shall probably be hearing Of a
renewal of the boycott before long,

SPIRAL NEBULAE MAY NOT
BE OTHER UNINERsEs.

That the spiral nebulae are not
other "universes" similar to our own
galaxy of stars is the most natural
explanation to be given to 3 highly
important observation received at
the Harvard observatory in a tele-
gram from the Lowell observatory
at Flagstaff, Ariz-. says experts at
Cambridge. Distinct changes in the
structure and form Of the nucleus
cf the well-known spiral Messier 90
are recorded by DR.. Lampland at the
Lowell observatory.
The nebulae Of the so-called spiral
family are very numerous through
out the depths Of space. but scien-
lists have not as yet been able to
determine their size. distance. and
composition. or discover what laws
govern their motions. or how they
are related to the stars and planets.
Many astronomers have maintained
that the spirals are stellar systems.
so distant from the earth that the
individual stars appear to blend to-
gether in hszy nebulous pattern
of luminous matter. That view Of
the spiral nebulae constitutes the
long-standing and fascinating

would make our own galaxy Of stars
but one Of many hundred thousand
stellar systems. all appearing 20 be

Other astronomers have contested

basis of much recent work done Al

The new observation by Lamp

island universe" theory. and II sup

The nebuls Messier 90, also known
