For the year ending June 80, 1919
appropriations had jumped to the
enormous figure of $27,065, 148, 690.T5.
The armistice was signed in Novem
Der, 1913, and a Republican congress
assumed control in 1919 The frs
step in reconstruction is to curtai
needless expenditure of public money
Economy consists not alone in refus
liz to make large appropriations but
in stopping Immediately the waste o.
money already appropriated, so The
first thing the Republican congress-
did was to appeal war appropriations
to the amount of s8,000,000, 900.
The record of appropriations made
by the Republican administration i!
as follows:
For fiscal year ending June 80, 1920

The revenue bill is not perfect tax

Met Situation
Tax laws are never popular, but the
taxpayers should remember that con-
gress has had many conflicting ele-
ments to contend with; that had the
debts caused by wastefulness and ex-
travagance during the war, for which
the present administration Is not
chargeable, been eliminated, the task
Of reducing taxes would have been
much lighter; that this congress had
to meet the situation as 1t found it
and that under these circumstances
they should realize that congress has
passed the best law possible.

to s5,337 1896, 1928, but in carrying
out it's program of economy congress
cut this down to $3.909, 1882, 209.46,
thereby effecting a saving for the cur
rent year alone Of 81 ,428, 714,513.77.
The cost of government, like every
thing else, has increased as a result
of the war and we now have, among
other smaller items, these additional
burdens to carry:
Interest charges, $975,000,00 Sink
ing fund charges, 1891 ,000,00 ex-
penses connected with the payment of
compensation, vocational training, hos
pitaliZation, insurance and compensa-
ton to dependents of dead and wound
ed soldiers of the late war, amounting
to S4S9 100000; making a total of
S1,845, 100000
Approach Pre-War Basis.
Subtract the added cost of govern
ment occasioned by the war. and you
will find we are coming fast to the pre-
war basis.
During the year ending July 81, 1871
1856 persons were dismissed from
the government service, and this &C
counts in part for the reduction il
appropriations. Since the arnisticc

Daylight Saving.

To the Editor. The Washington Herald:
There Is well authenticated
story Of an old lady who was
taken to see a stained glass win
dow that had recently been placed
in a local church. After gazing al
4 intently for a few moments she
turned to her companion and said:
Yes. it's very beautiful. but Ia
rather have glass as God made it
| am reminded Of this story by the
tional legislators that he wondered
why people are not content with
the clocks God has given US.
Now while Washington undoubt-
edly contains its due proportion OF
people who are controlled by this
and similar prejudices. I would not
admit for a moment that in gen.
eral enlightenment the residents of
the District compare unfavorably
with those of the 500 towns and
cities in the Eastern States who
have adopted daylight saving and
find il works most satisfactorily.
Why then should our own local
sentiment appear to he against IL?
For two reasons. First. because
the government employees who have
voted on the question are afraid
that IL will he made the occasion
of a lengthening of the hours of
work, and second, because the
community at large is so dissatis-
fed with the hybrid substitute the

Disillusioned.

@ INCLAIR LEWIS, cynical scoffer at Ameri-
- can culture has returned from Europe more
less disusoned.
His pictures Of the average provincial town in
the United States may be true enough. Its people
are shallow. They have scant appreciation of the
best in art. music poetry. They are selfish
They scandamongers.
But Mr. Lewis has had the opportunity to learn
that, in all these respects, his fellow countrymen
are not so bad the good citizens of Andelot
France, Berncastle, Germany. Americans may
attach undue Importance to display and fail to rec
ognize reality. They may be money mad. In fact
they may be everything evil which attaches to the
term. "A nation of shopkeepers"
The fact remains that they are more intelligent
and more appreciative, considered as whole than
Englishmen, Germans, Frenchmen or Swedes
They are less selfish They look upon life with a
broader philosophy
MI Lewis doubtless was sincere in his ar
raignment OF the United States, as it appears in
the rural community He believed there was crying
| need OF reform but he prospect of such re-
form. The trouble that he looked upon his
| surroundings through the coored spectacles of
Greenwich Village.
No finer object lesson could have been given

more calculated to change his opinions and give
him saner outlook upon life than the grasping
pettiness of French and German shopkeepers the

mad tendency of all the people with whom he came
in contact.
The American country town is, after ALL the
finest place in the world to live. The average Viz
ginia or Maryland village contains far fewer ignor-
ant people in proportion to its population than the
average French village. The opportunity its gives
| its young men and women are greater. Its whole
atmosphere affords finer inspiration for work and
accomplishment.
Not everyone has the opportunity to travel
abroad to discover the obvious fact that Americans
are blessed beyond all hopes of the people of other
lands. Mr. Lewis evidently is honest man. He
came home full of praise for his native land and
with little to say in favor of the others. His has
been the common experience of Yankees abroad
His example can well be taken to heart by hun
dreds OF other well-intentoned Americans who take

Must Have Laws.

To the Editor. The Washington Herald:
Those who say daylight saving Is
all right il you pass a law to set
the clocks remind me OF those who
favor compulsory vaccination by
law. They say they have formed
the habit of going to bed at a GER
tain time by the clock and they
cannot retire earlier unless you
force them by. act of Congress TO
fool themselves by setting the
clocks one hour ahead Of the cor
rect time. why do they not set
their own clocks one hour fast and
fool themselves. and let others
alone? They do not go out and
look at the clocks all over the city
to see IL II is time to go to bed.
Let them set their own clocks to
their hearts content. without de-
manding that Congress interfere
with the sacred liberties OF other
people. Changing the clocks does
your clock changed. why not change
IL to suit your own tastes? You
can then go to work at o'clock.
quit at 4:3o, and retire at your
regular hour by your own clock.
without interfering with anybody
else and his clock. All this howl
about the clock is ridiculous when
coming from those who really want
to go to work an hour earlier in
the summer. and / note that much
of the fuss is made by this class.
