 OF BUDGET

, Governor Scott C. Bone as mem Der of the National Budget Committee and honorary chairman of that body for Alaska today gave to the press the following statement:
 "The Budget Bureau of the natoinal government under the capable direc tion of General Charles G. Dawes has succeeded in effecting a saving in current expenditures of approximate ly half billion dillars and in formu- lating a budget for 1922-23 which further reduces proposed expenditures. Now the test of the Budget System comes in Congress and the support of this reform on the part o. the public becomes most imperative
 Business depression. unemployment and kindred national ailments are the cumulative effects of wars aftermath and have rendered Federal taxation an onerous burden. It is obvious that there can be no reduction of taxation until there is reduction of public ex- penditures.
 For the first time in the history of the United States government, there is in operation National Budget System through which Federal fiscal affairs are regulated according to sound business principles.
 "No reform in governmental meth ods however sound or however essen tial, can succeed unless supported by substantial citizenship of the nation. Therefore, the National Budget Com mittee, non-partisan organization of tax payers. is conducting a nation wide movement to enroll every citizen who feels the burden of taxation in support of the Budget System in order to register the greatest possible num- Der of adherents of national economy and efficiency.
 q commend to the tax payers of Alaska this plan of countrywide CO., operation and urge upon the civic spir- ited citizens of this Territory that for their individual and collective welfare, as well as for the general public veal. they give this great cause their whole hearted support to the end that there may be permanently committed to the policy of retrenchment and economy large and influential representation of our body polite.
 Support of the Budget System will insure reduction of taxation and a speedier return to prosperity and nor mai conditions" &
