what number the nails gross, but
it is known that the number of
shingle nails used will not be but
little short of full million, and
the number may exceed that
trife. As it is said that in driving

a mechanical sprayer, which does
the work most efficiently and much

do the work by Misunderstanding. To
do the tinting of the ceilings will

BRICKS WITHOUT STRAW

The State Budget Committee has been
holding meetings id different parts of the
State for the purpose of ascertsining what
and how large appropriations ought to be
recommended. The committee has lis
tened to many fervid appeals which, if
all were granted, would very largely in
crease the State tax rate for the next
two fiscal years, from July 1, 1923, to
July /, 1925 There is growing senti-
ment for economy. 1t has not yet be-
come militant but it will sometime, and
when it does, Republican and Democratic
politics will have vacation, the file
leaders will take to the woods and the
Budget will 60 to the scrap heap unless
IT iustifies its existence more convincing
" than it has yet done in the State of
Maine. 1t has been heralded as being
panacea for wastefulness and extrava-
cance, but as yet it has not been a check
on either. This is not the fault of the
committee but is due to the handicaps
under which its members serve. Two
years ago a Budget was prepared. We
need not discuss whether its recommen-
dations were wise or unwise. The Gov
ernor in his address to the Legislature
advised that certain special appropria-
tions named in the Budget should be re-
duced from the estimates 1898, 900, to
sS40, 600 and advised that an appropria-

officials and heads of departments are not
adeq uate for the services rendered" 1t
is expected that the Special Committee
will explicitly state its conclusion in re-
gard to salaries, waste of supplies and
duplication of work, if any exists, re-
duction of the number of employees, ETC.,
and will hew to the line without fear or
favor.
The committee will doubtless make
suggestions which, if put into effect, will
result in a reduction of a few thous md
dollars in departmental expenses, but the
increase of these expenses during the
last ten years is inconsequential when
compared with the increases due to ieels-
lative action and to grants made by the
people themselves through the referen-
dunn. The State House is not doer OF
iniouity. The blame for high taxes
should be placed where it belongs.
