SPIRITED CAMPAIGN
 FOR DELEGATES TO
 STATE LEGION MEET

Election of delegates to the Ameri- can Legion state convention at Pres colt will be held by the Frank Luke, Jr., post tomorrow night. Eleven dele gates will be elected which will give the local post representation equal to that of any in the state. This cleo tion has been prefaced by spirited campaign among members seeking to represent the local post and large attendance is expected tomorrow night.
 One of the topics which will be giv- en special attention at the convention will be the proposed soldier bonus bill. Selection of place for the 1922 state convention is expected to arouse some lively competition. Nogales and Douglas have already intimated they will make fight for the honor, while Morenci and Flagstaff are also re- garded as strong contenders.
 Plans will also be taken up at the state convention for getting an Ari- zona man before the national con- vention at Kansas City on October 31, for national commander.
 Arizona men now mentioned for the highest honor the American Legion offers, include the following:
 Dr. A. M. Tuthill, present state commander, who was Brigadier Gen eral on the line in France after hav- ing served as lieutenant colonel of the 158th Arizona Infantry on this side of the water;
 Col. J. c. Greenway of Bisbee, who served with the Engineers corps on this side and was later transferred to the fighting forces in France;
 Lieut.. Col. E. Power Conway of the Engineers, who held an important po- sition on the staff of the s. O. S., looking after the transportation of food, ammunition and supplies;
 Lieut.. Col. Alfred H. Gale of Pres colt, who was an artillery officer in France.
 Among those mentioned for state commander are: Capt. k. M. Robison of Flagstaff, Major Chas. McKean of Bisbee, c. c. Fares of Globe, H. c. Christy of Hayden, James Sellers of

 Deficiency Appropriations
 These figures do not include the $351 ,000, 0,O0O of deficiencies appropriat- ed for in the last two deficiency bills. These deficiencies have nothing what ever to do with the appropriations for 1922. They had little, if anything, to do with the activities of 1921; they were obligations created before by the preceding administration.
 It has been charged by the Demo- crats that we have been spending mon- ey at the rate of six billion dollars a year. Everybody knows that expen- ditures have nothing to do with the state of appropriations. It can we'll be that appropriations would not ex- ceed three billion dollars in a given year, and yet the expenditures might be six billion dollars. Why? There are obligations pending against ap- propriations made in past years which are still available, in connection with which expenditures must be made. The mere fact that expenditures are being made is no indication whatever of the obligation that is levied against the people by whom the tax must be paid is new.The thing against which a tax must be levied, are the obligations cre- ated in the appropriation bills, that is the expenses for the year with which we deal. It may be that for ten years gone by bills unsettled have been pending, the appropriations for which are still available, and when adjudi- cated and the accounting is made the Secretary of the Treasury draws his draft to meet the obligation.
 The probable expenditure for 1922 will be approximately $3,538,000,00 and if there is to be adjusted compen- sation allowed for soldiers, of course it will add whatever that amounts to. What it will amount to, do not know. It probably will amount in total to $1, 1,500,000,0O0 or $500,000,OO0 year for three years. In the statement made by the Secretary of the Treas ury short time since to the chair man of the Ways and Means com mittee, he indicated that the payments through the Treasury during the last

FACTS CONCERNING COV-
 ERNMENT EXPENDITURES

"The Republican party in the last campaign promised to reduce federal taxes. A Republican Congress has in- creased them, the appropriation bills carrying $6,000, ,000,00 for 1921 and a like amount for 1922 (which would be $7 $7,500,000,000 by the addition of bonuses.) This means that this admin istration will spend three times as much on an army in 1921 as was spent in 1916, and more than three times as much on a navy in 1921 as was spent in 1916, when nearly all of Flu rope was at war"
 picked up copy of Washington newspaper the other day and in it l found that the Democratic national committee had begun its campaign of vituperation. One of the things said in the first article issued by the com mittee was the foregoing.
 To nail the first misstatement 1 wish to say that the appropriations for 1921 amounted to $4,780, ,S29, ,5l0,- 35. Of this sum $186,492, 383.45 was for deficiencies for the fiscal year 1920 and prior years, with the conduct of the business of which the Republicans had nothing whatever to do.
 It also included $500, 100000 on &C., count of governmental management of railroads with which the Republi- cans had nothing whatever to do. Five hundred millions of this was on ac- count of the federal control and $300,- 100000 for new loans to the carriers. So that it will be seen at the outset that the appropriations for 1921, leav- ing out the extraordinary obligations created prior to the induction of the Republicans either into the control of Congress or the administrative side of the government, were $3,794, ,337,- 126.9O instead of $6,000, ,000, ,000, diff erence of $2,205, ,662 ,S73,10 between the statement printed by the Demo- cratic National committee and the cat ual fact.
 Fact as to 1922
 Now, what is the fact as to 1922 |? The total appropriations for 1922 amount to S3,53S, ,2O6, 6,61S.57, and are as follows
