Budget Bureau Cuts.

With the budget bureau ordering
further and further cuts in the Com
missioners' estimates the question
arises whether it should be the func-
ton of that establishment to control
the amount of District tax money that
Congress will permit to be spent on
the maintenance and development Of
the capital municipality.
The budget bureau was established
by statute to provide a means Of CO
ordinating and systematizing the ex-
penditures Of the government, subject,
Of course, to the final determination Of
Congress. 1t was planned to prevent
Implications. overlappings, dispropor-
tions and to keep the outgo within rea-
sonable relationship to the income.
But at no time has it ever been con-
templated that the appropriative
power was to be taken away from Con-
gress and placed with an executive Of
flee. Yet In a negative sense that is
what is happening to the District now.
as it happened year ago.
By applying a rule Of thumb to the
District as well as the other estimates,
cuts are inevitable In the budget bu-
reau. But a rule of thumb cannot log
ically or justly be applied to the Dis
trict figures. The case Of the District
is much more complex than that of an
executive department. Certain arrears
Of needs have accumulated that can.
not Indefinitely be neglected. A mu-
nicipality cannot be treated like a gov
ernment bureau or department. The
lives and health Of several hundred
thousand people depend upon the al
lowances of funds. The education Of
sixty-five thousand children rests upon
the appropriations. The daily safety
Of not only the local residents but of
those who are here to do the neces-
sary work Of the government is men,
aced in the degree that adequate funds
are not provided for police and fire and
sanitary protection.
If the budget bureau thinks that
the governments 40 per cent Of the
DlSlllCI COSL VI III1lIftoIldIC0 DC
less than the Commissioners estimate,
let it pass on the estimates as the
Commissioners frame them in their
intimate knowledge Of the community's
needs, with a general recommendation.
leaving the matter for Congress to 1e-
eide. Mutilation Of the estimates by
the looping off Of millions. regardless
Of where the cuts may reach or what
vital concerns they may affect, puts
budget making upon a purely mechan.
ical plane.
These recurring cuts. in response
to the demands of the bureau, are fore.
ing the Commissioners to present a
statement Of District needs wholly out
of proportion to the facts. Congress
should not be strictly guided by these
curtailments. Although it remains, and
must remain, the sole legislative au-
thority, it may with justice recall that
three-f1fths of all the funds .appro-
priated come out Of the Districts own
pockets.

Mr.. Gompers' Criticisms.

Samuel Gompers, president of the
American Federation of Labor. is eX-
ercising his rights as an American citi-
zen when he criticizes President Hard
Ing's address to Congress on the IN
dustrial situation, but criticism always
is more effective when it is fair, and
Mr.. Gompers is not fair when he at
tcmpts to read into the Presidents ut
terances purposes which Mr.. Harding
never intended.
In discussing the proposal that legis-
lation be enacted giving the Railroad
Labor Board power to enforce its de-
cisions, MIR. Gompers insists that such
legislation would mean slavery and
that railroad workers would have to
70 to work whether they felt like it or
not" No such idea ever was advanced
by President Harding or any other In
telligent person in this country. Pre-
vention Of conspiracy to throttle an
essential industry and compelling an
whether he felt like it or not" are
things as different as day is different
from night.
Would Mr.. Gompers be willing that
the firemen of Washington should go
on strike and leave his property and
the property Of his fellow citizens at
the mercy of a conflagration? OF
course he would not. But that does
not mean that firemen are slaves or
that an individual fireman has not a
right to resign from the service and
engage in another vocation. When a
man becomes a fireman he assumes a
moral obligation not to engage in any
conspiracy to cripple the service or
render it ineffective for the purpose
for which it exists. Mr.. Gompers
would be as quick as any other citizen
to denouncc the moral caliber of men
who put a demand for higher wages
above the safety of the city. He would
insist that they submit their case to a
fair-minded tribunal and then go out
and fight the fire.
The principle involved In the pro-
posal to make decisions by the Rail-
road Labor Board enforceable does not
differ from that in the case Of the fire.
men. Transportation is as necessary
TO the life of the nation as protection
against fires is to the safety OF the
city. When a man enters railroad en-
ployment he assumes the same moral
obligation as that assumed by fire.
man. With tribunal set up which
would have no interest except to see
that justice was done he should abide
by the decisions of that tribunal or
exercise his right as an individual to
quit the railroad service and engage in
some other vocation. He has no more
right to conspire with his fellow rail-
road workers to cripple transportation
than a fireman has to conspire with
other f1remen to let a city burn. But
denial either to the railroad worker or
the firemen Of the right to engage in
such conspiracy does not involve any
thing remotely resembling slavery.

due to the leisureliness with which
such cases are prepared and brought
to trial. Speedier action wherever pos
sible is essential II life and property
are to be made secure against the at
tacks of thieves and thugs. A swift
procedure to the point OF conviction
and punishment in this instance would
make profound impression upon
them and would reassure the com.

Two Weeks With Paw.

Now that August is here the vaca-
ton wave is. OF course, at its height.
On the beaches of Michigan and Wis
consin people from the city lie In the
sand and burn their knees and
shoulders in the sun. Village main
streets swarm with knickers and
white fiannels. Campers crowd the
river banks.
In the village gardens tiger lilies
bloom and in the barnyard cockerels
announce with faint crows that they
smoother feathers and chase tender
grasshoppers from daybreak to sun
set. At night the harvest moon
swings over canoe-haunted lakes and
rivers.
The call of the wild is audible in
every Office, and two weeks with pay
is sufficient to confirm the wander
lust in any urban heart. The ways of
the pioneer still have their claim on
the descendants of pioneers. The
vicissitudes of camp life are pleas
ant to a generation whose grand
fathers breasted the frontier and
pushed 1t back.
