UTMOST ECONOMY

Secretary Mellon Says Ex-
travagance and New Ex-
penditures Must End.

In connection with the announce
ment of new issue of Treasury GER
tificates of Indebtedness under date Of
March Is. Secretary Mellon of the
Treasury Department has addressed
letter to the banking institutions
of the country setting forth the con-
dition of the national Treasury. and
adding that the people generally
| must become more Interested in saw
ing the governments money than
in spending it"
The progress to be made during
the balance of the current year in the
retirement of gross debt and float
ing debt will depend, of course, upon
the extent of the demands made upon
the Treasury and upon the volume of
It's receipts from taxes and salvage"
wrote the Secretary. This process
is likely to be seriously limited by
reason of the heavy railroad payments
TO he expected during the next two
or three months.
Figures of Public Debt.
These figures as to the public debt
and the current operations of the
Treasury show that the country's
finances are sound. but that the situa-
ton calls for the utmost economy
ne nation cannot AFFORD eXtraVa-
gance, and, 50 far as possible. it must
avoid entering upon new fields of ex-
penditure. A thorouggoing national
budget system must be eSta blished
and the governments expenses
brought into relation to it's income"
The Secretary pointed out in his
letter that March -. next, about
$500. 100000 of Treasury certificates of
indebtedness will mature and the

ing and sculpture have been brought

has always been trouble in finding a
Suitable exhibition place. The only
available place at present is Boswell
hall, Washburn college. The fact
has, on every occasion, been willing
to make a long journey to the south
western suburbs to entirely defray
the expenses of every one of these ex-
hibitions speaks volumes for the i'm
portance of art in the minds of To-

The present library building is ad-
mirably suited to the use proposed
for it. In fact, its builders planned
the upper floor for just such a pur-
pose and it was so used until the IL
brary on the lower floor outgrew its
quarters. Perhaps some alterations
and repairs will be needed but these
would be comparatively inexpensive
and trivial.
