WHAT CONGRESS
 HAS DONE FOR U. s.

This government is the biggest business organization in the world Congress is much like board of di- rectors. It cannot bring back good conditions all at once, because it can not perform miracles. The country is like man who has been on a drunk, and broken up the furniture. The day after he cannot wipe the cob webs from his eyes and say every thing is all right. He has had his spree, and he must have his headache. He must pay for the damage he has wrought. Some of our theorists say the way to recover, is to take another "shot," but like all private business, sound economic plans must be fol- lowed, and the building must be upon sound foundation.
 The first and greatest need is to reduce the extravagant expenses. Taxes must be reduced before we can return to normal, pre-war conditions, and make it possible for agriculture, labor and commerce to prosper. The republican congress is reducing gov ernmental costs to remarkable de- gree. When the democratic congress adjourned March 4, 1919, there were eight appropriation bills that had not been passed. The government could not function unless these bills were passed before the first of July, and so it became necessary for president Wilson to call the newly elected con- gress in special session. The amounts carried in these eight appropriation bills had been definitely decided upon by the democrats, and most of the bills had passed the house. The re- publican congress reviewed these eight bills and reduced the amount agreed 100000. The Wilson ad- ministration then presented estimates for the next year, and the republican congress reduced these estimates $1,- 474 100000 in the appropriation bills as passed. Again, year later, the democratic administration submitted to congress the amount it recommended as necessary for the government to appropriate and spend, and the repub- licans in congress, over democratic opposition, reduced the amount $1,- 500, 100000, making a total saving of $3, ,913, 100000, or more than the total amount that will be necessary to con- duct the government for the next fis- cal year.
 The Revenue Bill
 The revenue bill recently passed will reduce the present taxes approxi- mately 5000, 1000. If the reductions above referred to had not been made in the estimated expenses of the gov ernment as submitted by the Wilson administration, instead of revenue law reducing taxes by $500, 0,000, ,000. there would be need for an increase of $3.S0O 100000.

SOME INFORMATION ON
 PROPOSED AMENDMENTS

It will be impossible to place before our readers an entire report of what is proposed in the way of new legis- lation, before the present special ses- sion. There are many special bills which are of no particular interest to taxpayers, having nothing to do with the questions of taxation, expendi- lures of public money, nor appropria- tions. There are, however, several proposed measures which the Maga- zine deems of sufficient importance to give it's readers more than mere men, tion.
 Proposed Constitutional Amendments
 Senate bills IA, 15, 16, IT, IS, 19, and 20, each relate to and propose amendments to the present constitu- ton.
 The main feature of senate bill IA is found in language, added to what now appears as Article 10 of the Con- stitution, as follows:
 "In addition to the above limited power to contract debt, the state may incur further indebtedness in the man ner to be provided for by law, but the aggregate amount of such further in- debtedness shall never exceed a sum equal to four percent of the as- sessed value of the taxable property with in the state; such additional debts < shall not be incurred with out first obtaining the assent of a majority of the real property tax payers of the state, who must in all respects also be qualified electors of the state voting at an election to be held for that purpose"
 Senate bill 15 would so amend the constitution as to require a majority vote of all electors voting at an cleo tion, for the adoption of initiative and referendum measures, in place of a majority of voters upon each such measure.
 Senate bill 16 would substitute for the present provision relating to pri- mary election laws, provision leav- ing the question of how candidates for office shall be nominated for elective offices a purely legislative matter to
The Coconino sun., 1922-03-24
be controlled by laws enacted by the

be controlled by laws enacted by the legislature.
 Senate bill IF would pave the way for giving effect to other proposed amendments relating to four-year terms of state and county officers, by providing for biennial elections of representatives in congress.
 Senate bill IS refers to the officers of counties, names them as now, and provides for four-year terms in place of two-year terms as at present.
 Senate bill 19 names the elective officers of the executive department of state as now and provides for four year terms instead of two.
 Senate bill 20 proposes four-year terms for members of the legislature, instead of two years as at present.
 If the foregoing measures are passed, they do not become effective until voted upon by the people at the coming general election, or at a spec ial election if the legislature so pro vides. Consequently, further discus sion of each can be reserved for the future.
 House bill 5 relates to an annual tax of one mill per dollar for univer- sity purposes. If this bill passes, it will take effect at once and repeal the provisions of the 1921 law, which re- lated particularly to the tax levy of one and three-tenths mills for univer- sity for fiscal year commencing June 30, 1922. This will reduce state taxes for that particular year by approxi- mately $250,000.00. Taxpayers Magazine.

MAKING HIMSELF CLEAR

A subscriber writes to the Anthony Republican as follows: Don't send us your paper any more. We ain't taking any papers now or we would take yours. But we don't want none at the present time. The Republican is an awful good paper but We can't take no paper now, so please stop your paper. We'll take your paper again when we can take a paper. Don't send it no more"
 The substance Toronto Kelly makes out of the foregoing is that the man evidently wants his paper discon- tinued.

congress the total expenditures was in round figures, 19 billions of dollars, which included the the great war costs that fall due. The next year the ex- penditures were reduced to 71a billions the following year to 61a billions this year ending June 30, 1922, the costs will be reduced to four billions, and appropriations for next year will be cut to three and one-half billions bill lions.
 Extravaganza has been stopped. The budget law recently enacted by congress is working well in eliminat- ing waste and duplication. Unneces- sary employees are being separated from the payroll. In 1918 there were 118,000 government employees at Washington, and over 900000 the country over. Today at Washington the number has been reduced to TO- 900, and over the country the number is reduced to below 500,000, and fur ther reductions are being made every day.
 Result of the War
 These fixed charges handed down as direct result of the war: Interest, $975, 100000; sinking fund, $381, ,000,- 900; compensation, disqualification, in- surance and payments to dependents of the dead or wounded soldiers, $489,- 000,000, making a total of $1, ,S45, ,000,- 900, no part of which existed before the war. Outside these war charges, billion and half will cover our ex- penses next year, as compared with a billion and a quarter before the war; Congress is right now considering the appropriation bills for next year and is continuing to reduce in every pos sible place.
 This record of saving by the repub- lican congress will be even more ap- preciated when it is known that ours is the only great nation that since the war has reduced expenses year by year, has all the time kept the outgo inside the income, has been able to re- duce the national debt, while other na- tions are increasing their debts, and has passed revenue law, reducing taxes nearly a billion dollars year.

CRAZY AS A FOX

At a. m., of a dark night the door-bell of well-known sanatorium rang furiously. The sleepy porter awoke and shuffled drowsily to the door.
 "Who's there?" he inquired.
 "It's MT. Jones; I've gone insane and 1 want treatment"
 What! At midnight? You must be crazy" And, turning off the light, he crawled wearily back to bed.
 Almost any man can be terror in his own home, but it's different up- town.
