The last year Of Wilson's admin
istration the actual cost of running
the government was $5,53S, 900, 900. The
actual cost drumming the government
for the fiscal year just ended June
80 was $3,795, 100000. This is an an
nual saving of $1,743, 100000 which the
Republican administration has made
in the routine expenditures OF the gov
eminent. This was possible because
the Republican Congress early in its
special session re-enacted budget law
which the previous Republican Con-
Igress had passed only to have Dem
ocratie President veto it. 1t was east
ly the most important piece OF busi-
ness legislation which has been en-
acted within this generation. After
it's enactment It was sensibly applied
by the executive officers of the Re
publican administration. -.

ministrative policies and the introduc-
