Financial statements relative to the
costs of operating a state government
are very uninteresting to the average
tax payer because he takes no inter
est in the costs of government other
than to complain of the high taxes
in general. If he were to analyze
the situation, he would perceive that
very large part of the costs of gov
eminent of the state is for the main
tenance of educational, penal and
charitable institutions from which he
demands the highest rate Of efficiency
with the least possible expenditure of
public moneys. The state govern
ment is in no manner responsible for
the number of inmates in these insti-
tutions. The laws of society have
demanded that certain people shall be
deprived of their liberty and it is
made mandatory on the part of the
state officials to properly segregate
into various classes in the peniten-
tiary. in the insane asylums and in
other correctional institutions
The scheme of reporting state finan-
cial affairs as adopted by the state
auditors office is in conformity with
the classification of departments and
accounts as promulgated by the U.
S. government and permits COM
parison with all other states in the
union which heretofore has been im-
possible Through this comparison,
one is able OF determine relative to
costs per capita as compared to other
states and determine whether o not
our cost of government in this state
S on par with other states of an
equal population and assessed valua-
ion. Through the installation of
he budget system the present admin
stration has adopted pre-determin-
ID financial policy, but it is only
through proper accounting system
hat it is going to be able to enforce
hese policies and it is with this idey
n mind that reports, as are being
compiled in the office of the state ar
1itor, are submitted to the member
If the executive branch of the state
government and to the Deopl. at
arge. 1t is practically an utter i'm
possibility to do justice to the finan-
,ial statements that are being pre-
pared by the state auditor in news
,aper stories. The tables and re-
,orts are very voluminous and in
treat detail, and one is Juite safe
rom contradiction in making he
statement that never before in the his

cport on financial affairs of the state

Sc MO R CLASS
PLAY IS .R EADY
"The Tailor Made Man.
To Be Shown Twice
Today.

"The Tailor Made Man. high
school senior class play, will be pre-
scented at the American theatre today
| Both afternoon and evening perform
ances will be given.
Miss Pauline White, high school in
structor, has directed the preparations
for the play. Twenty-eight high
school seniors have places in the cast.
The story revolves around John
Paul Bart, played by Douglas Lowell,
an apprentice tailor, who reads dis
sertation on Socialism. He borrows
evening clothes from Theodore Jelli-
cot, an English yachtman, and at
tends a reception.
At the reception he meets Abram
Nathan, president of big maratime
corporation, and by use of natural
mental agility, lands a $4,000 posi-
ton. He also cu1tivates and finds
favor in the eyes of an heiress but
finds little satisfaction in that accom-
plishment.
He is called upon to settle a criti-
cal labor dispute but in doing so, is
compelled to return to the old tailor
shop and Lanya Huber, the tailor's
daughter. Time proves that the big
concern cannot operate without Bart
and he returns to the corporation as
head of the labor department

Heavy Liquidation
Breaks Cotton Prices

NEW YORK. Dec. 5.-Heavy
liquidation broke cotton values
sharply today. Pressure came
mostly from Wall Street, the South
and commission houses. One Wall
Street concern was credited with
having disposed of 10000 bales,
mostly March. during the session.
Other firms also were large sellers.
1t was presumed that these opera
tions represented liquidation of old
long lines. Many stop loss orders
were reached. and the feeling was
very nervous. Unfavorable foreign
political news was factor. and an.
other influence was talk of offer.
ings Of the spot article in the South
at easier quotations.
The National Ginners' Association
put the quantity ginned to Decem-
ber l at 9,260.000 bales. and the in.
dicated crop at 9.640, 900 bales. The
quantity turned out for the la 81
period was 391 900 bales and was
below recent predictions. This
CAUSED a display of firmness at the
outset, but the failure of the fig.
ures to create a more general de
mand was disappointing to old longs
and recent buyers. and the gains
were short lived.
Acute weakness developed i'm tn,

ERIE RAILROAD PROFITS.

NEW YORK. Dec. 5.-If the
Erie Railroad is able to maintain
the net operating profits of Oc-
tober in the last two months OF
the year. II will end the year with
q surplus Of s1S6,S91. Its fixed
charges will be nearly $4,000 900.
There is only a slight chance that
this estimate will be exceeded
through added earnings due to in.
creased traffic movement The
company will have to draw even
more this year from it's mining
subsidiaries. chief among which is
the Pennsylvania Coal Company
than it did in 1921. when it drew
about $4,000. 900 to meet fixed
charges.
The October earnings showed a
