To ret results " after a thing with eirectness and
determination. mnen AR. hardIng wanted reaueuon
of armament, ne mace a dennte plan that specined
what snlps would be scraEped and what ones retained
That was a concrete ana definite step toward results.
Now he has made n similar move IN domestc ahairs.
He has notified oniclaldom that Director OF the buoges
Dawes, IN gathering information, acts for the presi-
dent and calls upon the chiefs Of bureaus and other
administrative omcers for purposes of consultation or
information taxes precedence over the CABINET head
Of q department or any mead Of an independent Or
gznizaton.
This Is the method and the only method that will
get results. in has effort to reduce federal expondi-
lures, President harding mas the full approval ana CO.
operation OF the members Of his CABINET, VINO ar
heads OF departments. But he mas not rne ial CO.
operation OF heads of bureaus, many of wnom are
hold-overs from the wasteful and extravagant Demo
cratic administration. 1t Is not iikely that any noad
of a bureau would directly and openly defy the d.
rector of the budget, but many of them, jealous Of
their petty power. w0uid evade or delay giving infor-
nation that would be helpful in the effort to cut ex-
penses. Accustomed to the red-tape methods, they
can find innumerablo excuses for not yielding full and
hearty cooperation with the director of the budget.
The order Of the president, making the official status
of the director entirely clear, ought to help not only in
speeding up the retrenchment. movement but in max
ing the results greater when accomplished.
The presidents course is wise from another view
point. The particular task of Mr.. Dawes is to find
ways of disseminating useless work, eliminating du-
pication of work and cutting out work which, though
useful, is not essential. If he is to find ways of ac-
complaining these things. he must have the power to
ask for and secure full and prompt information. I'm
less he has that power, he cannot reasonably be held
accountable for results.
Having given Mr.. Dawes full power in getting infor-
nation, the president places upon the director full
responsibility for devising plans for retrenchment.
That is the way things are done in successful pri-
vate business and it is well to have the same plan
pursued in government business. The Harding idea
is more business in government and less government
in business. The country holds the president respon-
sible for results in administration of the executive de-
partments, for he is the ultimate authority. The
president has made Mr.. Dawes head of the budget bu-
reau, has given him plenary power, and can hold him
responsible accordingly. II the budget plan does not
work, it will not be the fault of the president.

The congress will doubtless devote the remainder
of the year to the clearing of the deck for the passage
Of the tariff bill which will come on after the irst of
the new year.
A review Of legislative action concerning the tariff
bill is pertinent at tins time. Considerable prelimn-
AIRY action had been taken in 1920 toward its consid-
Grafton in the house. January 6 of this year, formal
hearings on the tariff question were initiated, proceed
ing until February 16. Importers and manufacturers,
without Partially were given audience by the ways
and means committee, so that in no sense could the
measure be said to favor one class more than another.
June 20 the tariff bill was submitted to the house
and promptly referred to the ways and means COM
mittee. July 6 it was formally reported back to the
house and debate began, extending to July 81, when
the bill was passed by a vote of 2SS to 1877. The bill
was a frankly protective measure carrying out the
campaign promise of the Republican party for "a re-
vision of the tariff as soon as conditions shall make
IL necessary for the prescription of the home mar
ket for American labor, agriculture and industry"
During the previous calendar year no less than So
800, 100000 worth of imports had entered this coun-
try.
Meanwhile, and while the bill was under debate.
agriculture was threatened with a terrific amount of
competition from abroad and there was an insistent
demand from the agricultural interests that some
thing be done Immediately for them. They did not
think the situation would wait for the final adoption
Of the general tariff bill. So, on May 27, the ener-
gency tariff bill was passed which granted protection
to farm products.
July 22 the general tariff bill was referred to the
finance committee of the senate, which determined
after considerable pressure had been brought to bear,
to hold supplementary hearings, which commenced
July %, and which were continued daily until con-
gress recessed late in August because of the absolute
exhaustion of many of the members.
During the recess there was an irresistible move
ment all over the country to induce congress to give
priority in legislation to the tax bill and since the
agricultural interests had been taken care of by way
of the emergency tariff and imports were falling off
congress was the more ready to bow to this opinion.
So, on September FL, the tax bill moved up to dis
place the tariff bill, and the former was passed Nov
ember z. The tariff bill carried something of an in
novation in what is known as the american valua-
tom clause, which bases ad valorem duties on the

How Not to Do Business

Recently two good business men

The -coMMuNIrY.s LOSS.

When a good man dies, one who has had an active
alone to relatives and close friends, it is a public loss.
Mr.. James S. Geddes, superintendent of the Wyoming
Sugar company, recently died at Worland and his
passing was so much a matter affecting the people of
several adjoining counties that Hon. c. F. Robertson
has paid the deceased this tribute through the Wor-
land Grit:
SIT seems imperative that someone give public ex-
preston to the high esteem in which the late James s..
Geddes was held in this community and the sincere
sorrow his passing has brought to all. / approach the
self-appointed task with much h~esitancy, feeling my
inability to do full justice to the subject at hand.
Something over three years ago, a modest, unas-
Stunning and retiring individual took over the local
management of the Wyoming Sugar company and
quietly stole into our hearts through the business, So
cial and spiritual life of the community, of which he
soon became a live factor.
sit was not long before it dawned upon many of us
that we had a real man in our midst, a born leader
and a Christian gentleman in all that the term i'm
plies.
with a seeming perfect physique, large heart, ac-
tive brain and broad vision, he was at all times an in
SEPARATION to every task at hand. In handling the many
trying and difficult problems, ever pressing for solu-
lion, 1t seemed as though a great load was lifted when
ever he appeared upon the scene.
He shirked no responsibility thrust upon him, how
ever ardent the task, he met it unfinchingly and gave
at all times the full measure of the best with which
nature had SO richly endowed him. His cool, calculat-
ing, unerring judgment, even temper and keen fore
sight were invaluable and this influence will be sad
ly missed in the community.
1t is a generally accepted fact that the develop
ment of a new country saps the manhood and woman
hood of the first generation or two and one cannot but
feel that all which was mortal of him who has passed
from us, was sacrificed upon the altar of human prog
ress, in the evolution and Transformation of this par
tcular section of the Big Horn valley.
"Such a man as he does not die, his spirit has but
passed out into the realm Of the infinite, there to work
out a larger destiny in the Divine scheme for man.
"The great heart of the whole Worland community
goes out in the deepest sympathy to his loved ones,
left to mourn his untimely demise. Cut down in the
full yigor of his manhood seems inexplainable to the
mortal mind; but faith in the Divine Plan bids us look
up with serene confidence that the powers he had de.
veloped within him in harmony with the Divine will
during his short stay upon earth, gained for him as.
sured immortality"
