Flinlsy Deception

DEMOCRATIC leaders announce that they in
~ tend to issue a statement comparing the appro-
priations made by this congress for the current fis-
cal year beginning July 1, with the appropriations
made by the Democratic congress for the fiscal
year of 1915, They propose to show by this that,
compared with the pre-war days of the wilson ad-
ministration, the present administration is not eco
nomizing.
If this report be true it conyicts the Democratic
party of attemptingea very flimsy deception. Every
person of intelligence knows it is impossible to re-
turn TO the basis of pre-war times insofar as our
public expenditures is concerned.
In 1915 the interest bearing public debt was $685.,
10000 and the annual interest charge was So, 0S4,-
636. Under the Wilson administration the public
debt was increased from the above sum to $2S, 00O,-
100000 and the annual interest charge from the
above sum to over $1,000, 100000. This increase in
the annual interest charge alone amounts to 1915.
100000 a year. 1t must be met and to meet it money
must be appropriated out of public revenues raised
by taxes.
The public debt itself must, be retired and a re-
tirement fund must be. created for that purpose.
Tho retirement fund in 1915 for the purposes of re-
ducing the public debt was only $60,000,000. Today
it is over 1868, 900, 900 a permanent increase of over
$300,000 900 a year.
In these two items alone there is a permanent
and fixed increase over 1915 of 81 ,275,0 100000, which
neither this administration nor a Democratic ad-
miristration could reduce, unless they repudiated
the public debt of the United States -and-defaulted
in its interest charges.
In 1915 there was no such an item as relief for
exoservice men, which under the heading of appro-
p%riations for the Veterans bureau today consti-
tutes an annual fixed charge of over $400, 900, 900.
The appropriations for the current fiscal year
include 500, 100000 for the shipping board. This
shipping board fiasco is a direct result of the Dem
ocratic administration and while in due time it will
be eliminated under the policies proposed by the
present administration any comparison of the ap-
preparations for the current year with the appro-
priations for 1915 must take into account this 500,
100000 and charge it up directly not to the Repub-
1ican administration which appropriates it but to
the Democratic administration which created the
necessity for the appropriation.
In thesesfour items there is an increase of 81, 7B-
100000 over 1915, which no administration, whether
it be Republican or Democratic, could avoid. Fur
thermore, none of these items enters into what, are
known as'the ordinary expenditures of the govern
ment, that is-e1pNSditures of the government
which might be reduced by measures of economy.
The only such items that could possibly come un-
der such a heading is the 800, 100000 for exservice
men. If the American people wish to r~epudiate

from the rUSo-ds made by such Democratic states
as mississippi represented in the United States

Georgia represented in the United States senate

y would do. were it in control Of the congress.
In mono of these three states has there been any
legislation even of the most trivial character for
ex'serviee men, Furthermore, not a single state in
the south has voted any relief of any character to
any ex-servioe man. Judged by this record, there
fore, IT Is not far-fetched to assume that in compar-
ing the appropriations of this congress with those
OF 1913 the Democrats will object to the $780,

United News Stan Correspondent.
BALTIMORE, MD. May 7.-'Pus-
syfooting" Is the unique, indeed. the
only Issue developed thus far in tho
Maryland political campaign this
year. From all Indications now the
man in both Republican and Demo-
cratic parties who shouts the loudest
that he Is wet" will win the nomina- :
tions, and whichever one OF these
convinces the people that he is the
"wettest" vii! win the election.
Every time n candidate for what
ever office sticks his head up in
Maryland to utter few plautudes
about things which don't interest
any one much. he Is banged over
the head with this question::
Mr.. arc you wet or arc
you 'dry'?"
This. says the Baltimore Evening
Sun, ''is the fundamental issue of
the day." and the people have q
right to know" where each candt-
date stands on it. As matter of
fact. there Is no other Issue that
amounts to anything, with the pos
sihle exception Of Senator. Frances
records on treaties and his favorable
attitude toward Soviet Russia.
A. corollary to the wet" or dry
issue is the issue OF the Anti-Saloon
