the estimates for next year, 1t be-
came known today.
The Commissioners, it was said to-
day, will make every effort to have
these supplementary items included
IN the District appropriation bill next
winter.

bureau to eliminate many important

find some way whereby some Of
these projects can be included in the

which were either cut or eliminat ed
entirely were with regard to the
Improvement Of the electric lighting

said.
When the estimates originally
went TO the budget bureau, they

Guaranty Survey Claims Devel-
opment of Saving In Indus
try Has Raised Standards.
BY Cosmopolitan News Service

NEW YORK, Sept 3.-Efficiency
not only raises the standard OF hv-
Ing, but has other beneficial effects.
the guaranty survey" published
by the Guaranty Trust Company,
said today. Restricted production
harms the laborer more than the
capitalist, the report further stated.
Most of the growth Of efficiency
In production is due to progress in
the development of machinery and
Improvement in management and
Industrial processes, but the degree
Of personal efficiency must remain
a factor of major importance" the
survey said. Everywhere can be
seen the Improvement in the stand
ards Of living in working mems
families made possible by capital
Accommodations, business organiza-
alxiiI on the part Of the workers
themselves. The productivity Of
human effort II continually en-.
larged by these means, making pos
Mhle a growing volume and
variety of commodities.
"FFom 1910 to 1890. for example,
there was o decline Of 1,723,000 In
thu number Of persons engaged In
agriculture in the United States,
and yet the estimated value Of farm
products in the latter year was two
and one half times the correspond
Ing value In 1910. Representing an
increase in quantity as we'll as
value of output. That the supply
OF some farm products has been
temporarily greater than could be
marketed profitably is an argument
not for less efficiency in produc.
ton, but for better balanced pro-
duction.
Similar gains are being made In
productions per capita in other lines.
with resulting advance in the gen.
eral standard Of living. It il esti-
mated that today we could supply
to each person in the country the
same quantities of commodities
that he consumed ten years ago,
and at the same time dispense with
the services Of about 1000, 900 Of
the persons now employed.
