War Profiteers Fail to,
Swell Conscience Fund

1t has been a matter of speculation
among many as to just how far, II
at all. the war has affected the con-
science of the great American pub
lie and the figures secured from Treas
ury Department officials do not indi-
cate that the conscience Of any
profiteers had any severe jolts since
1916 or that all of the delinquents
have found time to sit down and COM
mune with their innermost feelings.
One might naturally expect that
some of profiteers might have had
slight twinge during the period OF
1916 to the present time, but such
appears to be far from the case. Those
whose purses have been swollen by
reason Of having mulcted the gov
ernment and their fellows during and
after the period of the war do not ap-
7 pear to have taken the matter very
much to heart, il the returns Of the
conscience fund are to be taken as
barometer. Coming down to the pres
ent year. We find that so far, and this
IS usually the fat" season, that less
than $500 has found its way into
Uncle Sans strong box from those
who have experienced that guilty
feeling of having something that
they know does not belong to them, 1t
being really the property OF this gov
ernment.
The largest total that was made
during the period Of from 1916 to the
in he n
s5492315 was turned in. The follow
ing year gave total of $4.424S.
while the total for 1918 was $4,0ss21.
The next twelve-month period saw
considerably larger amount. the total
being $11.03301, and in 1920. the
figures jumped to $19,379.13. only 10
be followed in 1921, by a most sub
stantial decrease. namely $3,S3932.
An amusing letter showed that a
man had sent in contribution to
pay for a mule that he claimed that
he had obtained possession Of unlaw-
fully during the war of 81. Another
odd letter contained the information
that the sender was a~resident of
Great Britain and that he had Slip
ped something over on the customs
people" and that he wanted to make
amends at this late date.
The proportion of the senders are
divided about equally between tho
women and the men. sometimes there
will be a run Of female contributors
and then there will be a deluge from
the males.
The officials Of the Treasury. while
refusing to discuss for publication

VERY little while some indi-
- yidual sends to the Treasury
Department a sum OF money. a
check or a number 0 stamps
stating that the amount is TO pe
credited to the conscience fund, ant
that it is to pay for an Oversight
or, as some of them put it, TO make
up a shortage for which they are re-
sponsible."
The money or it's equivalent is
upon receipt, sent to the division o1
bookkeeping and warrants. and
through this branch Of the govern
ment is checked and finally reaches
the general fund of the Treasury and
becomes a part of the money that is
available for different purposes
When it reaches the division OF
bookkeeping and warrants it is re-
corded by the chief of the division,
M. j. O'Reilly, and by him passed
to A. NJ. Smith. assistant chief, to be
properly filed and indexed and, if
by some rare chance. the sender has
given his name and address. to be
acknowledged, this latter condition
seldom obtaining. for the majority OF
those who turn money into the gov
ernment because of a guilty feeling
have not arrived at the point where
they desire to have their names
placed on the official records.
The first money that was received
by the government from such sources
was a five-dollar bill sent to the
Treasury in 1911, and from then up
to the first of the present year. $544,

ceived from those who could not rest
until they had made restitution to
the government. These figures do
not include the amount received dur
ing this part of 1922, which is ap-
proximately $4,000.
The largest amount that has ever
been received as a single contribu-
tion was $4,000. and the smallest
was cents.
Under a recent ruling Of some one
in the Treasury Department the files
that formerly contained these letters
are no longer open to the public, as
some officer thought that feelings of
some might be injured il any more
OF the letters were made public, al
though there has been hardly any
chance of a name being given to the
public, for most-fh fact, over 80 per

A rather amusing incident took
place some time ago, when the Treas
ury gave out the statement that some
one had contributed two cents as a
salve to his troubled mind. A man
wrote In and claimed that he was the
one that had sent the two pennies and
wanted to know II the department
would not kindly, furnish him with

Editorial Comment
Doing Things Under Cover"
(Boston Transcript


A fine example of blazing indis-
cretion' was Senator Harrison's rail-
ing against the Administration the
other day, in reference 10 the recent
dismissals of Government employees.
to the effect that there apparently
was "a diabolical plot to do things
under cover" The remark was quite
unwarranted, since there had been no
appearance OF anything. There GER
tainly had been no definite refusal to
make public all essential facts, such
as there was under that former Ad-
ministration of which Senator Har-
fison is SO rambunctious a champion.
The "diabolical plot to do things
undercover' is ancient history. 1t
occurred six years ago. At that time
Mr.. Wilson was q candidate for re-
nomination and recollection to the
Presidency-dcspite his practical
committal of himself four years be-
lore to single term only. In the
Post- office Department there were =.
lot OF examinations and appointments
OF postmasters, the net effect. of
which appeared to be considerably To
promote Mr. Wilson's second term
campaign. Some of the circumstances
bore q suspicious aspect, so that-as
much to vindicate the Administration
from suspicion as for any other spe-
cial purpose-the Civil Service Re.
form Aeague Ssought to INSPECT the
reports OF the examinations. That
was no new thing. 1t has frequently
peen done before. Former presi-
dents. and former Civil Service Com
missions, mad invited and even urged
the leagues officers to do it. For
more IMAM a generation it had been
an established custom, to which there
had never been a single exception.
But when the request was made in
1910 Tor inspection of those pub,ic
documents, the Civil Service Com
lnissloners. appointed by President
wilson, mindful of the fact that he
was running for a second term and
that ne could not afford to have anv
scandals unearthed, refused if. on tho
ground that an examination of the
papers, might cause the Admjpistr.
tioh some embarrassment, \Annea,
was made to the President, and Pres
iuehl wilson, who had declared that
II ne mad any passion it was that for
publicity of all public business
hacked up and supported his Civil
service commissioners in their re-
fusal to show the papers A moro
and cynical pilot to do
