have the interested powers agreed
to accept without qualification Pres
idents Harding's invitation to con-
ference in Washington to discuss the
limitation of ornaments but they
have acquiesced in the proposition to
discuss also the related problems of
the Far East. This is another vic
tory for that candor of purpose, di-
rectness of speech and sincerity Of
action which is once more distin-
gushing American diplomacy and
characterizes this nations dealings
with other powers.
When President Harding issued his
call for the conference, he specifically
and clearly set forth the purposes to
be twofold-the limitation of arma-
ments and the discussion of those Far
East problems which are so intimate
~ related to the question of arma-
ments. Since then partisan critics
and those who are opposed to any
move in the direction of disarmament
have ondeavored to set up a public
sentiment that the president had un
dertaken to do too much-that hC
should have confined his call to tn
discussion of ornaments and moi

DEFICIENCY BILLS
MAY BE LEGISLATED
OUT OF EXISTENCE

Washington, Aug. 24.-One of the
results of the budget law and the
creation of the budget bureau will
probably be the enactment of supple
mentary legislation dealing with the
problem of deficiency appropriations.
Shortly after the enactment of the
budget law, Thomas R. Marshall, for
.iner vice president, seriously ques-
toned the efficacy of such a law be-
cause he sad department heads would
get around it by exceeding appropria-
tions allowed under the law and pre-
renting deficiency bills at the sue
ceeding session Of congress. Since
that time many democrats have taken
the same viewpoint in an effort to
d scrcdit the republican accomplish
ment Of putting the law on the books
Republicans in both legislative anC
executive branches are not inclined K
minimize the possibility Of the Law
being evaded n just such a manner
In fact the practice of department
and bureau heads spending more thar
their appropriations and then bein,
reimbursed by deficiency appropria

tiOns by a succeeding congress is one
which has been .indulged in by both
republicans and democrats alike for
fifty years. But its long indulgence
has proved its evil and administration
leaders are now considering the en-
actment Of q law to stop department.
and bureau heads from exceeding the
appropriations asked by them in the
budget bill and allowed by the con-
gress, except in cases of genuine
emergency.
This legislation will probably con-
sist Of two phases. First, an abso-
lutte inhibition against any executive
mourning a deficiency obligation by
spending more than the appropriation
allowed him; second, the creation Of
a board which shall pass upon emer-
gency propositions and shall be au-
thOrized to meet them by drawing
from a special fund to be specified
in the budget under that heading and
appropriated by the congress for that
specific purpose.
1t is pointed out that in Ohio, for
example, there is a board made up,
ex-officio, of the governor, state aud
itor, attorney general and the chair
men of the house and senate finance
committees. This is called an emer-
gency board and when any executive
department or bureau has an emer-
gency which makes demands upon it
in excess of the regular appropria-
tiOns, it appeals to the emergency
board for additional funds If the
case is a meritoriOus one the board
approves the request and the money
is transferred to the department from
an emergency fund which the legisla-
ture appropriates each year and
places in charge Of the emergency
board.
It is believed that the creation Of
a similar board in the federal govern
ment would be practical. 1t could be
an ex-officio board and need not in
cur any additional expense or set up
any new machinery. The existence
of such a board in connection with
the law prohibiting the head of any
department or bureau from exceed
; ing his appropriation would eliminate
all deficiency appropriation bills.
| Bureau or department heads having
: a real need for more money than
: their budget called for, could obtain
. the necessary funds from this board
E which would be financed from a spe-
: cial fund known as the emergency
: fund.- It is felt that most of the
= emergencies" which have arisen IL
d the past have really not be as serious
: as bureau heads represented ane
> that if bureau head knew he hat
: to show real cause for emergency as
e sistance, there would be very few
n instances where such requests woul,
o be made.

affecting the Orient and the Pacific
ocean.
Whatever its motive and source,
this propaganda has signally failed.
This country is even more sOlidly
and earnestly back Of the conference
than it was at the time it gave such
an enthusiastic reception to the pres
ident's call. The growth of approx
ing sentiment in this country is
matched only by the growth of a sim
liar sentiment in other countries, par
ticularly the countries in Guided in
the invitation. People have been
quick to see not only the wisdom,
but the sincerity, back of the pres
ident's linking the question of arn1a-
ments and Pacific problems. Any
discussion of the reduction of arma-
ments without some settlement Of the
problems of the Far East, would be
merely academic and therefore a
shma and pretense.
To discuss, however solemnly, the
reduction of ornaments without go
ing, back to the principles and dis
cuss:ng international differences
which make ornaments necessary
would be a futile and hypocritical
proceeding, productive of nothing
good or enduring and calculated only
to serve the ends of political expe-
diency. President Harding and Sec
rotary Hughes realized this wher
they included the discussion of the
causes of ornaments.
There is no doubt that both Of
them appreciated the difficulties Of
such a conference, because any con
ference which discusses seriously The
causes of international friction anC
attempts to remove them, goes to the
very roots of war and attempts tx
uproot them. 1t would have beer
much easier to have limited the con
ference to an academic and idealisti
discussion of universal peace and ad
journ without accomplishing anything
practical, but to have done so woul'
have been cheap political trick, de
signed to fool the American peopl
and the result of which certainl,
would have broken the hopes of al
peoples.
1t is because both the presiden
and his secretary of state, and all o
{ his advisors in the administration an

move causes of armament and there

sal peace, that the subject matter {

SPEEDING

II is q fair conclusion-though the
newspaper reports do not bring il out
that the tragic death Of Commander
Galbraith Of the American Legion, re-
suited when an automobile in which he
was a passenger failed to make q
street corner, was directly due to
speeding. A man who had led rough
and ready life, full Of danger, with a
fine fighting war record up on the line
where lead few, died in q vehicle
accident.
Day after day the same kind Of re-
ports come. Death unnecessarily en-
tailed by rushing 10 beat time, OF by
sheer carelessness, resulting common
ly from hurry. In New York city
alone more fatalities occur from au-

little Vermont scarcely a week passes
