The people OF the United States earn
estly desire peace. The last admin
istration, with an insistence that
would not consider any method of Sc,
curing the peaceful settlement of in
ternational disputes except the League
OF Nations, went out of power largely
because of that fact. The people saw
In that scheme an assurance of furth-
er wars rather than reasonable plan
for the discouragement and prevention
of wars.
The present administration with rare
wisdom undertook to secSe concrete
and definite international agreements
which would result in diminishing the
probability OF future wars by limiting
the armament Of those nations whose
competitive strife could only result in
future wars Accordingly, the Presi-
dent called a Conference to meet at
Washington TO consider the limitation
of armament and to make such settle
ments and agreements especially with
regard to the Pacific and adjoining
territory as would determine existing
disputes and remove causes of future
discord
Judged by practical results the
Washington Conference was the great

of peace ever accomplished 1t Sc

the nations parties TO the Conference,
We have made war more difficult and
less justifiable for all nations, and
have given new assurance to those
who desire and hope for the future
peace Of the world
The present administration has
given not only actual and practical
expression of its desire for peace. it
has gone to the extreme limit in the
reduction of its military establish
meut.
We are "scrapping" our Navy down
to the treaty standard, by which the
United States must limit its tonnage
to $4,000; Great Britain $4,000;
Japan $4,000; France $4,000; and
Italy, $4,000.
We have reduced our annual war ex-
penditures of over $1O,OOO,G 900 TO
about S60O,O0OOOO and are making
further reductions every year.
The last administration refused to
end the war with Germany for over
two years after the Armistice was
signed, except upon acceptance of the
Versailles treaty with the League Gov
enant. The present administration
made peace with Germany without de-
lay and without surrender of any right
the United States had acquired by its
participation in the war.
The United States will not be an
isolated nation under Republican ad-
miniStrations. But it will be the con-
tinued policy of the Republican party
to keep the United States to its tradi-
ttonal policy so as to prevent entan-
clement in the maZes of conflicting
interests territorial quarrels, religious
hatreds, and race jealousies which
have afflicted Europe for more than a
thousand years. The peace-loving peo-
pie of America will do well to main
tain that policy, and to support that
party which not only desires peace
but takes practical measures to OBJ
tain it; which is not afraid to propose
and effect reductions of our own Army,
Navy and armament in order to induce
other nations to do likewise; and
which will not be sweryed from its
policy and purpose by any chimerical
scheme, or by any ambitious or sordid
lust for power.

Budget REQUESTS.
@. s. REPRESENTATIVE WILL r. WOOD UNDI-
ANA, MEMBER OF HOUSE COMMITTEE
ON APPROPRIATIONS

President Harding took office on
March 4, 1921. The first complete
fiscal year of government business
under his administration began on
July l, 1921, and closed on June
30. 1922. The Budget Bureau was
created in June, 1921, practically
simultaneously with the commence
ment of the fiscal year. The esti-
mated expenditures tentatively sub
mitted by the various departments
for the fiscal year 1922 aggregated
S4,550, 900, 900. The operations of
that fiscal year have just closed. BY
the application of pressure by the
President, exerted through the
Budget Bureau and with the coopera-
ton Of the heads of departments and
other administrative officers, the or
binary expenditures for 1922 actual
ly amount to s3,795,OO0,0O0, a re-
Luction Of 1856, 100000 from the
figure submitted by the departments
at the beginning of the fiscal year.
The first budget submitted in De-
cember indicated a deficit for this
same fiscal year of $4,000, 900. How
successful the efforts of the admins
tratiOn have been in holding down
expenditures and conserving revenue
is attested by the fact that instead
Of a deficit there was a surplus for
the year of $314,0OO.OOO.
The total public debt of the United
States on June 30, 1921. one year
ago, was $23,977OOO,OO0. This sum
had been reduced on June 30, 1922.
to $22, 1863, 100000, a reduction Of
$1,O14,OOO,O0O.
The policy of the administration
has been a return to normal condi-
lions in public expenditures. How
well this has been accomplished is
amply reflected by glance at the ex-
penditure figures of preceding years.
The Republican party gained CON
troll of the Congress in the elections
of 1913 and came into power in Con
gress on March 4, 1919.
During the period the admiuisfra.
ton was Democratic and the Congress
was Republican, requests of the Demo.

ductiOns in appropriations and esti-
ton in the expenditures. The peak
OF ordinary expenditures was reached
in the fiscal year 1919, $18,514,0 00,-
900. The drop to the fiscal year 1920
is most extraordinary, the total for
that year being 100000. For
the fiscal year 1921 a further recess
sion brought the total down to 49,
lie, 927689. For the fiscal year
1922 the total, as heretofore stated,
came down to 100000. This
sum includes $422,000,O00 of public
debt retirements chargeable to ordi-
nary receipts and should be elimi-
mated from the $3,795, 900 in Or
der to obtain a figure comparable to
expenditure figures for the fiscal
years 1919, 1920 and 1921. The
1922 expenditures, therefore, exclu-
siye of public debt retirements, are
1892 SOY, 1893. The reduction of
1922 under 1920 is $3,030,O0O,O00
and the reduction of 1922 under 1921
is $1,743,319,7 89.
Evidence Of the value Of the cen
tralization of Congressional RESPONSE
bility in connection with the public
appropriations is furnished in the
fact that Congress appropriated for
1928 $312,172,292 less than the
Budget Bureau requested. In other
words, although frequently charged
with being the spendthrift branch of
the government, in point of fact the
Congress appropriated seven per cent.
less than the budget estimates asked
for.
The people of the United States
have just reason to be'proud of the
financial record of this administra-
ton. While other countries are
struggling with huge deficits in their
budgets and are burdened with enor-
nous taxes and staggering public
debt, the United States has shown a
surplus for the fiscal year just closed
and at the same time accomplished a
most gratifying reduction in its pub
lie debt.
