I called upon to make provision 70
meet these over-drafts out Of the
Contingent Fund Shortly after as
Stunning the Office Of Chief Executive
invited the heads Of departments
to conference and impressed upon
them the fact that the Legislature,
not the Governor and Council, was
the appropriating body, and ex-
planned that hereafter each depart
mert must plan to live within the in
come provided for 1t by the Legis-
lature. The Governor and Council
cannot assume the responsibility Of
enlarging legislative appropriations
and the Contingent Fund should be
drawn upon in case of real emergen-
cy only.
The amount of cash ON hand March
LIST in the State Treasury was 49,.
937 ,223 PC. This money is deposited
in the various banks and trust COM
panies of the State and the State re-
ceives interest on it's daily balances.
If the affairs OF this State are con-
Quoted upon the somewhat reduced
appropriations OF the accompanying
schedule the estimated income to the
State, less these appropriations will
produce a balance of $1S2.S26.64 for
the period ending June 1922. and
S79.991.49 for the period ending June
1928. Such a balarce is not in ex-
cess of what is required as a safe
margin for the states bus ness at
fairs Out of this balance will come
certain appropriations which have al
ready been passed by you, such as
the $4,000 appropriation for the wild
ow of our late Governor, but you
will need to exercise great care in
passing other appropriations for once
the door is opened there will be a
food of resolves pouring in upon you.
If this Legislature makes appropria-
tons in excess of $19,358 ,600.3S or if
it passes laws whereby the States
income is less than $40 ,621,41S.5 the
State tax rate must be raised to meet
this increase in expense or decrease
in income. Contingencies may arise
and there should at all times be
maintained in the State Treasury a
working balance so that the States
affairs be not hampered. If this Leg
islature will present to the people OF
the State financial program along
the lines suggested in this message
you will save $1,275, 506.42 from the
Budget figures and I believe that the
people of the State will approve your
work and will understand that you
have made an honest effort to in
augurate a period of reasonable re-
trenchment and true economy.
The details of the financial pro-
gram are submitted herewith and
when printed will enable you to I'M
derstand each item of income and ex-
pense. In closing | wish to express
my appreciation Of the work of the
Budget Committee of which State
Aud tor Roy l.. Wardwell and Repre-
sentative Frank H. Holley are the
only members connected with the
State government. This work has
been done with unfailing tact and
has proved of real service to this
Legislature.

| gift to the State of a certain amount
| of land in Mt Katahdin township. In
solar as have heard this suggestion
was indefinite, having been brought
to my attention through the newspa-
per accounts Of the hearing. This
paper company owns an undivided
3/8 interest in Mt. Katahdin town
ship, and II it should seriously consi-
der giving portion of this 3/8 in
terest to the State such portions Of
the township as contain timber or
pulpwood would probably be reserved
from the gift. 1t is to be regretted
that this great company, which it
self has been given rights of untold
value in the water resources of Maine
should oppose this park. 1t is gen
orally understood that this opposi-
ton does not come from a desire on
the part of this company to save the
State of Maine from the expense of
park, but that it seeks to prevent
the State from exercising its SOW
ereig1 right of Eminent Domain. The
legislative agents of this company
have decreed that this Legislature
shall not establish a park, for to do
so the State must use it's power to
take land for public purposes. 1t
should be remembered. however, that
the very company which opposes this
bill has repeatedly been given by
the State rights of Eminent Domain
which have been exercised by that
company for private gain and not for
public uses, and it is unfortunate
that an attempt to dominate the
Maine Legislature should be made by
the representatives Of this powerful
corporation. | have often thought
that perhaps these legislative agents
do not always represent to their prin-
cipals the true situation on this and
similar public matters. | respect
those individuals who honestly be-
lieve it inexpedient that this park
be established at the present time,
but no one should be allowed to deny
the States right of Eminent Domain,
and least of all those who have to
their own great profit been given this
right by the State itself
The Budget has divided the com
ing period of 212 years into one of
months, and periods of one year
each. believe it will be more con-
venient if the 21s years are divided
into two periods, the first for 10
months and the second for II months,
and the summary of income and ex-
penses submitted herewith are in this
form.
All departments of State except
that of Adjutant General and State
Land Agent and Forest Commissioner
are under the supervision Of the Gov
ernor and Council, and their accounts
pass through the Auditors office. In
my opinion it would be for the in
terest of the State if these depart
ments were brought in line with the
others.
In looking over the appropriations
and actual expenses of the various
State departments for the years 1919
and 1920 it appears that over drafts
were made amounting to $1,517 1927 80,
and the Governor and Council were

ADMIRAL SIMS REPLY
Letter Written by American Sailor to

Now Famous Speeches Abroad.

Belfast, Aug S.-A letter from Rear
Admiral William S. Sims, acknow-
Lodging receipt of congratulations
from the Belfast comrades of the
great war on his recent speech be-
fore the English speaking union in
ties of Sim Fein sympathizers in the
United States was made public here
today.
The letter dated July II reads as
follows:
II can assure you 1t is matter of
great qualification to me to find that
the loyal men of Ulster hold the same
opinions as I do as 90 the English

concerned. 1t would seem as though
the incident were about to be trans
formed into an issue. At all events,
it will apparently have considerable
effect on the future. 1t is my hope
that it will exercise a very consider

CHILDERS DENIES REPORT
Will Not Be Necessary to Wait for
Release to MckeoWn Before Irish
Republican Parliament Can Meet.

Dublin, Aug. Soy the Associat-
ed Press)-Eamon De Valera, the re-
publican leader discussing with news
papermen today the case Of John j.
McKeown, declared he did not believe
the refusal to release McKeown with
the other imprisoned members of the
Irish republican parliament represent
ed the considered decision - of the
British government. It was done, he
thought by subordinates who based
| their action on technicalities
Erskne Childers, who is associated
| with the Sim Fein leader declared to-
! day the statement that no melting Of
| the Irish republican parliament could
be held until McKeown was released
was wholly unfounded. Such a state
ment was published this morning as
an official Sim Fein pronouncement.
The expectation prevails in official
circles that the reply of Permier Lloyd
George from Paris regarding Nc
keown's case will be prompt and ia
vorabe.
