The gray OF evening descends, my

one man is built to be a beau, his

it's time to go to rest, the evening

the fruits they've won; unless we've
tried to do our best we've failed, how

Checking Public Expenditures

For half a century it has been customary for
the various executive departments to expend the
annual appropriations allotted them by congress
then run up deficiencies and ask congress to
legalize them by making additional appropria-
tions. It has been that practice which has caused
the taxpayers of the country to realize the i'm
portance of establishing sound budget system.
Such system will shortly be provided, for the
senate passed the budget bill few days ago, and
similar measure will go through the house be-
fore the close of the week.
In 1870 congress passed a law which pro-
vided that it would be unlawful for any depart
ment of the government to expend in any one
fiscal year any sum in excess of appropriations
made by congress for that fiscal year or to in
volve the government in any contract for the
future payment of money in excess of such ap-
preparations.
81 To indicate how that law was observed, the
records show that between 1870 and 1905 when
the law was amended in an effort to put some
teeth in it, $500 1000, 900 had to be appropriated
by congress to make up for deficiencies.
d In 1905 the law was changed to provide that
each executive department shall divide it's annual
appropriations into IL equal parts and spend only
one-twelvfth of such appropriations each month.
The law was further amended at that time to
make it criminal offense for the violation of
any provisions of the law. Notwithstanding the
determined effort made by congress in 1905 to

priations, deficiencies were incurred by the var
Gus departments amounting to over $500, 900 900
between 1906 and 1917.
Representative Fred Purnell of Indiana, one
of the members of the select committee which
framed the budget bill, has called attention to
the fact that the definitely fixes respon-
sibility for the expenditure of the public funds.
THAT, to my mind, is all-important," said
Representative PurneIl. Cup to this time there
has been sort of vague impression over the
country that congress is the profigate branch of
the government. l was agreeably surprised
when it was developed in the hearings before our
committee that over period of 20 years. with
but two exceptions, and one of those doubtful,
congress has reduced rather than increased the
estimates submitted to it by the executive"
There is a genuine doubt in the minds of
the people," he continued, "as to just who is
responsible for the demands made upon them
for money. This bill, if enacted into law, will
absolutely fix that responsibility. When the
president presents to congress at the beginning
of each regular session, is provided in the BILL
a definite, concise statement of the financial
needs for the next fiscal year, the people will
know that the amount requested is the result of
careful calculation rather than haphazard guess
work by ambitious bureau heads. The people
will also know that the president is ready to
stand or fall by those estimates When the
budget is handed to congress the responsibility
shifts from the executive to congress, and again
the people will know where the responsibility
lies. If congress increases decreases the
amount asked for the people will pass upon the
wisdom or folly of the action taken"
Secretary of Treasury Mellon, in his recent
communication to congress, has placed his finger
of soyf,oxy
namely appropriations of unexpended bal
ances, revolving fund appropriations, appropria-
tons of receipts, and other indefinite authorize
tons of expenditures.

Answers to Questions

Miss B. K-For the benefit OF
reader will you print short account
OF the London Bridge, of which so
much is written?-The present Lon
don Bridge was opened by King
William ", Aug. /, 1881. The lamp
posts Of the bridge were cast from the
metal of the French cannon captured
in the Peninsular War. London Bridge
is one Of the fourteen bridges in the
county Of London. 1t connects the city
of London with Southwark and Ber-
| monrsey. The old bridge stands first
in historical interest and has been
famous for many generations. Bear
ing it's rows of houses and it's chapel
in the center, it was completed early
in the Thirteenth Century. 1t was
| sos yards long and had 20 narrow
aches. 1t stood just below the present
bridge, which was built of granite by
John Rennie, and completed in 1881.
A widening of the bridge was found
necessary to accommodate the growth
of traffic. This project was discussed
| for many years, and in 1904 was com.
lpleted by means of corbels projecting
Oh either side. The work was done
without arresting traffic.
Curious-What is the origin Of the
saying, THE sport is not worth the
candle?"-"1t is a poor sport that is
not worth the candle" is from George
Herbert's "Jacula Prudentum." a col
lection of proverbs dates 1851, which
has appeared in a shorter form as
