END EXTRAVAGANCE, PRESIDENT ORDERS
 HIS SECRETARIES
Must Stop Living Beyond AL IoWances and Then Calling on Congress to Make Up
 the Deficit
By Associated Press

Washington, May 3-ConfSonting deficiency estimates of upwards of a half billion dollars, President Harding informed the executive departments of the government today that they must put an end to the habit of liv- ing beyond their allowances and then calling on Congress to make up the deficit.
 In a letter to each of his secretaries and in an extended discussion at the cabinet meeting, the President laid it down as a policy of his administration that only grave emergencies should war rant the expenditure of public funds prior Go their appropriation by Congress- He emphasized his belief that the long standing practice of making such eXpen- sdltures without congressional authority was one of the most dangerous tenden- cies' of administrative government and one of the greatest barriers to national pconomN

NEGOTIATIONS WILL LIKELY BEGIN ANEW
 IN MARINE DISPUTE
Committee of ShipoWners on Way to Washington and Conference Will Probably
 Begin In Day or So
By Associated Press

Washington, May 3.-Reopening of negotiations between the shipping board, steamship owners and marine workers in an effort to settle the wage dispute which threatens to tie up American shipping, was indicated as probable today by Chairman Benson, who announced that a conference of all the parties of the controversy might be held here tomorrow.
 Negotiations to draft an agreement covering wages and working conditions came to an abrupt end last Friday with the refusal of the men so accept a I5 per cent wage cut. later made effective by the board. The men carried their case to President Harding. who turned the matter over to Secretaries Davis and Hoover. The latter since have held conferences with union leaders in an at tempt to bring about an agreement by concilaton.
 Since yesterday, Chairman Benson said the whole problem has been directly in the hands of Secretary Davis. He added that the situation looked very hopeful Discussing the possibility of conference tomorrow he said a committee of ship owners was on it's way here but all the parties to such a conference might not be here by tomorrow. What would be the scope of the conference he said he df1 pnt

WILL FORGE BENSON

While Secretary DavIs declined to say whether efforts would be made to pep-- suade Admiral Benson to recede from his announced stand for 15 per cent wage reduction, representatives of the marine engineers declared after a con- ference with the labor secretary 'fpres- sure by government officials would force Benson to listen to reason
 Working rules proposed by Secretary Davis were said to have met the ap- proval of union officials who, headed by Thomas B.. Healy, representing the ma rine engineers of the Atlantic and Pd- cific coasts. conferred with him today The union heads will meet again with Secretary Davis tomorrow. At the cab met meeting today the secretary is un- derstood to have said the situation looked hopeful
 Possible use of naval reserves to man shipping board vessels was said by rep resentatives of the engineers to be highly satisfactory to them as most of them are naval reservist. If the men who now decline to sign up for reduced wages can go to sea under naval re- serve compensat tion, which is higher than the pay offered by Admiral Benson and the ship owners to civilian employees, our unemployment problem for marine workers will have been solved" MT.

PENS TRIBUTE TO
WOMEN OF LODGE

The following was contributed by
a member of the Pride of Delaware
Ladies Loyal Orange Lodge, No. 2O2:
A reception was given at the p. o.
S. of A, by the Orange lassies and
laddies so gay. All dressed up they
looked so fine. with hearts so happy
to have a good time.
There was dancing and singing.
and everything gay. Sister Hanlin in
dancing, we'll she took the sway.
Sister Andrews was next on the
floor so fine; made me wish that
some fiddler owned this heart of
mine.
Brother Gillen got up and to let
them all see the step he had learned
in the old country; for a jig, or
reel, he can do it up fine, made the
girls all sigh gently. / wish he were
mine.
Brother Mcdowell looked sweet
with his pleasant smile. He danced
a quadrille for pleasure awhile. He
swung round his helpmate so gentle
and free, he thought of the time
when she was twenty-three.
Brother "Bnl" Mcdowell, he sat
by the wall watching the floor in
case Of fail. His wife being doc
tor, in case of sprain. would battle
it so gently and not leave pain.
The next we will speak of is
brother George Brown, the best little
Orangeman anywhere around. His
wife, a past mistress, as some of us
| know-we hope they will stay with
us wherever we go.
Then floor manager Hanlin, as we
very well know, is an up-to-date
dancer from the word go. He danced
the quadrille half way round and
was a credit to any of the masters
in town.
To the fiddler. Starrett, the best
man of all and his helper, MacKin-
ley, your attention 1 call. He played
for the dance for your pleasure you
see, for your good and others as
well as for me.
There are two other brothers who
can't be forgotten. Brothers Brad
din and Brownie. the best of the
lot. They can entertain ladies from
the word go. You can ask Mrs
Baird il you think it not so.
