$40, OOO, 900 SAVED
Secretary Weeks Introduces Business
Methods and Reduces
Payroll

WASHINGTON. Sept. -. - The
War Department has withdrawn over
$4,000, 900 from its appropriations
for the current year which 1t intends
to return to the United States Treas
ury as Il result Of measures OF
economy with Secretary Of War
Weeks has put into practice in his
department.
In addition to the $40 1925 90
which Secretary Weeks has with
drawn from his appropriations for
the current year. he turned back
INTO the Treasury $13,451,54O.OO
which had been appropriated for the
fiscal year ending June Goth. This
was done In face Of the fact that
after the beginning OF Secretary
Weeks administration. an estimate
based on expenditures Of that fiscal
wear up to March 4th was made and
it showed that the then rate of ex-
penditure there would be a deficit of
$4,000. 100000 by June 3Oth..
Economy measures were promptly
taken so that no deficit would exist
on June 30th and so effective we're
they. that not only vas a deficit
welded, but the War Department
was enabled to turn into the Treas
IVY n unexpended balance of
$13.451.440.OO.
Among the measures of economy
which Secretary of War Weeks has
put into practice are the abandon
meht OF many army can.onments:
movement OF troops by marching in
stead of by rail transportation: the
REIMBURSEMENT Of real estate In ex-
cess OF army needs; the declaration
a vast amount OF material as sur
plus and its sale; restrictions upon
transportation Of personnel and sup
pies; a new system of storage Of
peace time reserves and current sup
plies whereby many war depots are :

railroads from the necessity Of meet
ing these obligations from current
revenues but bring funds into the
treasury which could be used in
nesting. other government obliga
tons.
From the railroads standpoint the
Operations under the act would 90
far toward creating q condition
under which the roads might be able
to weather the inevitable brief period
OF reduced returns under lower rates.
Mr.. Mondell also called attention
to the emphasis which the present
Nigh rates have placed on the In
lA0ualities and injustices worked by
lthe so-called long and short haul
rates He announced his purpose OF
labOrinS for not only a general
freight rate reduction. but for q fur
Their modification Of the system un-
der which the Intermountafn coun-
try pays unreasonable rates as COM
pared with through or trans-conti-
mental rates. In his interview on
the subject Mr.. Mondell said:
"Of cours 1t is impossible for
anyone to determine in advance just
: how quickly freight business viii! In
crease under reduced rates and
through such increase fucniAh the
railroads with necessary revenues.
But n thing SEEM to be quite GER
tain business Is not reysving uuder
present rates and can scarcely be
expected under the handitaps that
these rates present. 1t is probable
that the roads are not At this mo-
ment in position to stand the reduced
revenues which would come from a
general reduction OF rates. but
everything that can be done should
be done both in a business and a
legislative way to bring about condi-
tons under which lower rates can
be weathered until they develop an
increased volume Of business. II is
very certain that productive enter
prises-agricultural and Industrial
cannot develop and yield fair returns
under present high rates"

REDUCTION IN FREIGHT RATES

Eastern newspapers have devoted
considerable space to the statement
OF Floor Leader Mondell to the eff
iect that there must be a general re-
duction in freight rates before the
country can return to a normal con
dition of business activity
While %stressing the necessity. for a
rate reduction. Mr.. Mondell said
that 1t must be admitted that, with
a few exceptions, the roads we're not
making fair returns On present rates
and In many cases were barely max
ing running expenses. and that there
fore a general freight reduction must
be preceded by the establishment of
conditions sufficiently favorable from
a financial standpoint to enable the
roads to weather the Inevitable
period Of a still further reduction in
revenues following rate reductions
and continuing through the indefi-
mite period required for q sufficient
Increase Of business under the new
rates to put the roads on q paying
basis.
MI. Mondell expressed the opinion
that the railroad bill, which Just
passed the House, authorizing the
Wal Finance Corporation to, market
upwards of four hundred million dol
lars OF securities, which the Wilson
administration took from the rail-
roads in lieu Of cash in refindinR
operations. would. when. 1t passed the
Senate and became law, have a very.
helpful influence. Under this law
the War Finance Corporation could
offer to the investing public the Sc
curities already in the treasury as the
result of refunding operations with
the railroads and other securities re-
ceiged from like transactions author

and also In the release of a great
deal OF real estate owned by the War
Department. 1t Is now possible to
declare this real estate surplus and
order its sale. At present there are
81 such pieces of real estate which
can be sold.
There has beer s general reduc-

de atatea ]acuste venetice, jalea

''De la Hotin 81 pan la Mare.
De la Soroca pana la 1asi."
zidurile batrane 81 inegrite de
veacuri ale cetatilor lui Stefan

Oar sunt presarate in aceste
stihuri frumoase numai lacrimi, 81
suspine care orr cat de sincere, de
lduiosse ar fl, tot dovada a nepu,
tintei, desnadejdii raman.
Moruzi este coboritor din nea-

'Nici sa finn robi nu mai voim +!
Mai bine-o moarte- n nemurire

Ca puritan acelasi dor,
Ca destul suntem pc lume =
De un sange, de-un hume.
Ca e timp sa ne unim.
