That Gone Flat Phrase"
To just What Did GOldwin Smith
Refer?

To THE NEW YoaK HERALD: Arnold
Haultain of Toronto. the secretary and
biographer of Goldwin Smith. refers 20
n comment made by Professor Smith,
based upon his study or Abraham Lin
coins Gettysburg Address. Mr.. Haul
tain reports Professor Smith as saying
that this otherwise noble address Is
marred by zone fiat phrase"
In view of the command of the Eng
lish tongue OF which Professor Smith
was n master and his ability critically
to analyze the use Of the English Ian
guage in the orations or addresses of
men who We're esteemed great. having
wonderful acumen in recognizing the
shades of meaning in an English word
his statement that the Gettysburg Ad-
dress, otherwise a noble utterance, was
marred by zone fat phrase seems to
be worthy of serious consideration. Pro-
fessor Smith did not point out that fat
phrase. He said no more than that 1t
was obvious. Yet 1t has not been obvi-
Gus to anybody except him., have
asked many competent critics If there
could be found in that address any sem
tence or arrangement of words that
justified criticism.
1t may be that Professor Smith re-
ferred to this clause which was In the
address THAT that nation might live"
Perhaps he discovered tautology in the
repetition OF the word that. The NEW
YoRK HERALD will be giving service
to those who are careful students OF
the English tongue IL it calls attention
TO Professor Smiths criticism and asks
it's readers upon what that criticism
was based Perhaps to some 1t may
appear as it did to Professor Smith,

The Truth About State Savings.

In response to the urgings Of Gov
ernor MILLER the Senate Finance Com
mittee and other responsible leaders
IN the Legislature have found $75,-
100000 which can be sliced out Of the
1921 budget estimates of $205, 100000.
This is a good work. as far as it has
gone, and a big work in the amount
Of requested squander now marked
for slaughter. 1t is all to the credit
of Governor MILLER and his legisla-
tive associates. But two plain, honest
facts in connection with this budget
revision must be recognized. One is
that the economy chicks are not
dead sure thing until the eggs are
Matched. The other is that If the
whole Legislature sticks to the re-
duced estimates until they become
appropriations, and if the department
heads are compelled TO stay within
such appropriations, the States ex-
penses win not have been cut $75.000,-
600. AS a matter of fact the States
expenditures will only have been pre-
vented from going up. The avalanche
Of squander will have been stopped.
The tide will have been turned.
For the fiscal year which ended
June 80, 1920, the expenditures were
$94,000000. For the fiscal year which
will end June 80. 1921, the appropri-
ations were $142, 100000. Cutting the
new budget estimates therefore from
S205, 100000 to about S130000,000 will
not, even If the programme goes
through to the very end. get the spend
ings more than $12 100000 below those
of the present fiscal year 1t will not
get them within $35,000,00o of the
spendings of the past fiscal year.
Furthermore, the estimated reve-
nues for the new fiscal year are be-
low $124,000,0O0. So that even the
heavily reduced budget estimates for
the next fiscal year will have to be
met In part out of the estimated sur
plus of S1S,T50,000 which will be left
in the treasury on the 30th day of
next June.
All Of this Of course is no reflection
on the Governor and the present Leg
islature. On the contrary, they are
performing n heroic operation as
well as a splendid public service when
by main strength they force the
States spendlngs down to figures
within the States resources. They
do a very fine and very necessary
work when they cut between 1000 and
1900 useless names off the payrOlls,
when they block avoidable construc-
tion projects and trim the indispensa-
bic undertakings to the lowest posi-
BILE limit.
But the very fact that their grim
slaughter of $75,0OO,000 of estimates
demanded by the department spenders
gets the total down TO only the level
Of safety as measured by income and
surplus should serve to remind the
members Of the Legislature rs they
vote the appropriations that but for
the Governors unyielding stand and
the firm support Of him by the respon-
sible leaders this great State of New
York would now be n imminent dam
ger of going on the financial rocks.
And II should serve to prove to the
Governor and the Legislature that.
with all costs of labor materials and
supplies now coming down. the State
economizing which is Just beginning,
thanks to Mr.. MILLER and his support
ers in the Legislature. should he
pressed further and further until the
expenditures get down next year be-
low hundred million dollars.

A. B. & A. WAGE CUT
TOTALS $240, 900

ATLANTA. January IA reduc-
ton in wages of employees of the
Atlanta, Birmingham and Atlantic
railroad, effective Monday and repre-
senting so per cent of all increases
granted since 1917, will amount to
$24O,0OO per month, it was announced
by the road Thursday. Representa-
tives of the employees rejected the cut
IN joint session with the road heads
last month, and they will meet again
Monday to determine their final
course of action.
In railroad labor circles the Allan
ia, Birmingham and Atlantic wage re-
duction is universally views as the
entering wedge for general reduc-
ton throughout the railroad world,
according to statementsh made
Thursday.
Officials of the Atlanta, Birming-
ham and Atlantic state thot the cut
is necessary in view of the fact that
the ROAD cooperating at loss OF $780,
600 per month
Those in close touch with the stu
alton confidently predict that the en-
ployes will avail themselves fully of
whatever recourse there may be to
the federal board. On the other hand
officials anticipate no serious trouble.
In 1917 the Atlanta, Birmingham
and Atlantic monthly monthly pay
roll totalled approximately $141,OOO.
This was subsequently increased to
$245,OO0, then to $355,O00 and the last
Y increase granted by the government
Iplaced it at $38OOOO A large number
7of the cimpany's employees in the
shops have been discharged.
