ON APPROPRIATIONS

President Harding took ONCE on
March 4. 1921. The first complete
fiscal year OF government business
under his administration began on
July !. 1921, and closed on June
80, 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
1880, 100000. 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. 600, 200, a re-
duction OF s755,O00,0 900 from the
hgure 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
Ola deficit there was surplus for
the year of $4,000, 900.
The total public debt OF the United
States on June 80, 1921, one year
ago. was s23.977. 200, 900. This sum
had been reduced on June 80, 1922.
to s22,963,000.000, a reduction of
$1.o14,000,oo0.
The policy Of the administration
has been a return to normal condi-
tons in public expenditures. How
we'll this has been accomplished is
amply reflected by a glance at the ex-
penditure figures OF preceding years.
The Republican party gained con-
troll OF the Congress in the elections
OF 1918 and came into power in Con-
gress on March 4, 1919.
During the period the administra.
ton was Democratic and the Congress
was Republican. requests OF the Demo
cratic executives for appropriations
were reduced by the Republican Con-
gress by nearly $4,000 .0OO, 900.

Tins of stomach trouble is sounded
by VIM. ]. Mulhall, 1850 w. 91st ST.,
Cleveland, Ohio. Mr.. Mulhall was
victim of stomach trouble in its
worst form but completely restored
his health by taking Tanlac. He
says:
my stomach went wrong ten years
ago. and ! got to the point where l
could hardly eat anything. My nerves
were in bad shape and had rheu-
matism in my right shoulder which
ached and panied me for two years
A friend of mine finally put me on
to Tanlac. and now feel Just like
a brand new man."
Undigested food ferments in the
stomach and soon the entire system
is filled with poisons. Tanlac was
designed to restore the stomach TO
a healthy condition and build up the
whole body. Millions everywhere
have acclaimed its wonderful power.

mates made a most gratifying reduc-
ton In the expenditures. The peak
OF ordinary expenditures was reached
In the fiscal year 1919, s1S,514,000,-

Is most extraordinary, the total for
that year being s6.403. 600. 900. For
sion brought the total down to S.
115.927.6S9. For the fiscal year
1922 the total, as heretofore stated.
came down to 100000. This
sum includes s422, 900, 900 OF public
debt retirements chargeable to ordi-
nary receipts and should be elimi-
mated from the 5000, 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-
sive OF public debt retirements. are
s3,372. 607,s99. The reduction OF
1922 under 1920 is 5000, 900 900
and the reduction OF 1922 under 1921
is 3l,743,3ly,1Sy.
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
1929 s312,172.2s2 less than the
Budget Bureau requested. In other
words. although frequently charged
with being the spendthrifts 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.

well-bred and well-fitted animals.
In encouraging farmers to take ad-
vantage of the opportunities which
fairs and livestock exhibits give for
observing improved livestock and
poultry the Department of Agricul-
ture places emphasis on the following
points: Livestock displays afford an
opportunity to study breeds and
types and to see a large number OF
good animals. In the case Of meat
animals the size. conformation, and
uniformity are worthy of special stu
dy in view of increasing tendency to
raise purebred and high-grade stock

breeding.
Farmers attending livestock dis
plays obtain useful information by
meeting others who are interested in
superior breeding and feeding meth

MAN is SEEKER
:. OF KNOWLEDGE
Men Can Outthink Women, Accord
ing TO Figures OF Chicago
3. Public Library.
BY A. j. Lorcnz.

Chicago, Sept. 10.-Men are more
studious than women. Reading the
morning paper at breakfast is not in
territorial rudeness on the part of the
American "pater familias." It's his
hunger for brain food being given a
stimulus in the form of a news APP
petizer.
With such weighty arguments and
apologies does the Chicago Public
Library defend the American man.
In the reference room, where most
of the heavy reading" is done, men
outnumber the women three TO one,
according to the librarians report
for the past month. The reference
room figures show that 7,139 men
requestioned books, while only 2,767
women took advantage of the priv
ilege.
These figures are taken to be au-
lucrative, as summertime is a severe
test. Only few of the men are col
lege students, whereas in winter the
figures double.
Seeks Business knowledge.
"Many of the men are young fell
lows interested in some phase OF
business" the reference room attend
ant remarked.
"One man, however, has been COM
ing here daily for six months read
ing practically nothing but BOOKS On
Russia. / believe he INTENDS writins
a book OF his own"
Science and history, with sprinK-
ling of occult reading, hold the chiet
interest of men habitues of the read
ing room. There's the retired ousi-
ness man. the professor, the student
the ambitious clerk and very rev
"bums." The latter are not strang-
ers to good reading.

derelicts is the Bible" the librarian

OPTIMISTIC VIEW OF
I. STRIKE APPARENT
Coal Situation Also Dis
cussed At Cabinet
Meeting.

Washington, Sept. Son the basis
of personal reports to administration
leaders a more optimistic view of the
railroad strike situation was apparent
today in government circles than at
any time in the last week.
Officials who have been in touch
with strike developments declared
that settlement of the labor contro-
versy on a number of roads was a
probable, result of the series of con-
ferences which they understood to be
in progress in Chicago.
The extent to which the negotia-
lions might go forward affecting a
national settlement was not forecast
in these circles.
Includes 81, 900 Miles.
The Chicago meetings we're said
to have been largely result of eff
forts of Daniel willard, of the balti-
more & Ohio railroad, who was un-
derstood to have associated with him
representatives of about $4,000 miles
of operated track.
Attorney General Daugherty to-
night said the government was not
a party to any negotiations between
the railroads and their employees, but
declared that such negotiations would
not be interfered with by the tenn
porary restraining order issued at
Chicago.
Legal Backfire.
There was no development today

started by the international Brother
hood of Electrical Workers one
group of the striking crafts-thru a
petition for a restraining order to

ment's temporary injunction. Con-
ferences were held between counsel
for the union and United States At

poning the hearing on the petition set
for tomorrow before Judge Bailey,

ranged

chanical arrangements in American
piayhouses ara at least twenty-five
years ahead Of European theaters.
