BIG GOVERNMENT SAVING
INDICATES LOWER TAXES
However Should the Soldier Bonus
Become a Reality Soon, All
Savings May Vanish.

J AS a result of the economy program
which the present administration in
augurated and has consistently en-.
forced, President Harding has JUS
informed the congress, through let.
ter to speaker Gillett, that the tsti
mated expenditures for the current
year will be 100000 less than ar
estimate submitted to the Congress
on August 4th, last, by secretary Mel
lon.
Upon that date Secretary Melon
appeared before the Ways and Means
committee and informed them that
according to latest advices received
from the spending departments, and
after taking into account all estimat-
ed reductions in expenditure reported
to date, the Treasury estimates that
the total expenditure for the fiscal
year for which provision should be
made out of the current revenues of
the government will be about $4,55o,-
ooo,ooo."
Within a week after Secretary
Mellon had presented this estimate
to the Committee on Ways and Means
and after the Secretary had had sew
eral conferences with the Ways and
Means committee, this estimate was
revised downward by $4,000, 900,
leaving the estimated total expendi-
ture for the current fiscal year about
S4,o34ooo,ooo
That was the estimate of 90 days
ago. President Harding, in his letter
to Speaker Gillette, says: "At the
time this statement was made the re-
suits of the imposition of executive
pressure upon the spending depart
ments, inaugurated at the meeting
called by the President of the body
of the business organization of the
government, had not been fully de-
yeloped." Within the last 90 days
the results OF this pressure in the
direction of economy have been very
tangible and consequently the Pres
ident announces the administration
will be able to clip $o4,ooo, 900 more
from the estimated expenditure of the
current fiscal year. This will make
total cut of $6I4ooo, 600 from the orig
i1al amount which i, was estimated
ernment during the current year. The
total expenditures, according to this
revised estimate communicated to
the Congress by the President, will
be $3,o4o,ooo,ooo.
If the present armament reduction
conference should come to a close by
as expected, and our naval
program of ship building should sud-
denly cease, as proposed by Secretary
many millions more would be
saved within the next six months fol-
owing adjournment of the conference.
1t does really begin to look as tho
government taxes will soon be re-
iuced to something near reasonable
'asis in spite of the tremendous war
1ebt that is with US and must be paid.
Again, there is that soldier bonus
natter that may cost the country sew
,ral billions within the next few years.

THE BONUS

The opinion of the country on the
bonus for the ex-service men has been
pretty well collected and boiled down
by the Literary Digest. which says in
its latest issue:
The loud protests reaching this Of
fee in various papers against rebury-
ing the soldiers bonus in. the files of
Senate committee give strength to
the belief of Secretary Hoover's
Washington Herald that the matter is
merely postponed, not defeated, and
ais as assured as if already acted
upon" Thus we find western editor

out of its vaster resources do for its
soldiers what Great Britain. Canada,

gium and Italy have done for theirs;
which will not compensate the men
who fought and suffered and bled for
81 day while shirkers at home were
getting SO day and the profits of
wartime business were making 3d.
900 new multimillionaires! This cry is
echoed by other papers and is taken
up by individuals, journals and organ
izations speaking for the veterans of
the war. 1t is true that President
Harding's insistence upon postpone
ment of the bonus bill on the ground
that it would wreck the nations fl
nances quickly persuaded majority
of the Senate, and the postponement
seems to be heavily Endorsed by the
prevailing newspaper sentiment OF
the country, irrespective of party
lines and sectional prejudices. Yet
it must be recorded that many refuse
to accept this disposal of it as logi.

That story about Haytian negroes
coming to the aid of the Americans
in the revolution is thin stuff. All

think it is a lie anyhow. Never saw
any mention of it in history.

The warning sent out by the United
States public health service, in regard
to pellagra seems to have aroused re-
sentiment in. some of the southern
states. We can see no reason for that.
The government health service is eff
ficient and faithful, and we do not
think it is swayed by political rea-
sons, as some southern papers init
mate, and as considerable part of
its personnel is well known to be good
men, and live in the section referred
to, it is not wise to take its advice
lightly The government health serv-
ice is not so well posted on local con-
ditions as different state medical as
sociations, of course; but we haven't
heard from all the local practitioners
yet. Several people have died of pei
lagra in Ocala and vicinity in the last
score of years. and some of them were
not exposed to the conditions general
ly supposed to cause the disease. 1t
is possible that pellagra is one of the
diseases that has existed a long time
but has not been classified until adj
vancing science separated it from
other forms of sickness and gave it a
name. Forty years ago, nobody had
heard of appendicitis and separate
treatment of it from other infiamma-
tions of the stomach and bowels had
not been attempted, except perhaps by
some surgeons in advance of their
day. No need to be excited about
pellagra, but it is just as well not to
scoff at it.
