ed the river and harbor fund of $50
$4,000 and agreed to continue an
Army of 125,000 men and 1900 Of
ficers.
Despite their defeat in the recent
Senate fight, opponents of the large
increase of appropriations for river
and harbor work said they had as
surances from President Harding that
there would be no waste of money.
The President, they said, had taken
the position that only money really
needed for necessary river and harbor
improvement should be spent, regard
less of the amount authorized. No
new projects will be begun. it was
said, probably making it possible to
keep expenditures within the s27.-
100000 recommended by the budget
bureau. Any surplus appropriation
would lapse with the next fiscal year.

bureau had recommended expenditure
of $27, 900 on various projects. At

day that approximately $4,000, coo OF

SENATE TO GET D, c.
BILL REPORT TODAY
Senator Phipps Will Call
Measure Up at First
Opportunity.

The conference report on the Dis
trict appropriation bill, with the
amendments agreed to by the House
Saturday. was expected to come be-
fore the Senate for consideration
some time today. Senator Phipps OF
Colorado, in charge Of the bill. was
expected to call up the measure as
soon as opportunity presented itself
The action Of the House Saturday
ratified the agreements in regard to
school buildings and other items in
the bill, which had been agreed to
tentatively by the conferees of both
the Senate and House. The Senate
therefore, is expected to agree to
the bill as it now comes back from
the House.
The Item of ss75,ooo for the pur-
chase OF the Klingle valley, Piney
Branch and Patterson tracts for
parks, which is still in dispute, will
probably be dropped from the bill.
il was said today
one Senate amendment, however,
which now stands in the bill. NAV
cause the bill TO be sent back TO
conference. That is the item which
proposes that the bathing beach for
colored people shall be located at the
south end of the Key bridge. This
will be resisted by Senator Swanson
and Senator Glass of Virginia, it is
understood. who are strongly op-
posed to that location for the pro-
posed colored bathing beach.

.Lincoln's Honesty
BY the Associated Press.

by tHe !AfAoclateo ffees.
A musty volume in the archives of
the Post once Department, in which
is recorded the appointment Of Abra-
ham Lincoln as postmaster at New
Salem. Sangamon county, ILL.,, on May
Z. 1888. recalls on his birthday an
niversary today an interesting story
of his postmastership, which is said
to be a tradition of the service.
AS related in a memorandum made
public by the department, it was sew
eral years after the post Office at New
Salem had been closed, in 1899, that
one of tho few special agents then
assigned to that duty called on Lin
coin, then a struggling young lawyer
Of twenty-seven, to close up finally
the accounts of the office. The for
mer postmaster. in accordance with
departmental routine, had waited for
the agents visit. The latter. accord
ing to the story. presented Lincoln
with a statement showing a balance
due the government from the post
office amounting to about SIT.
Lincoln" as the memorandum re-
lates the story, responded by rising
from his chair. crossing his office to
an old trunk in the corner and taking
from it cotton rag tied with string.
Untying 1t, he produced the exact
post Office agent, indicating that he
had held the sum intact and untouchz
ed ever since his retirement as post"
master.
"I never use any mans money but
my own he calculated calmly"
Evening star., 1923-02-12

So hidden in the west. God shaped
his man.
There in the unspoiled solitudes he
grew.
Cncurst by culture and uncrampt by
creed;
Keeping his course courageous and
alone,
As goes the Mississippi to the sea.
His daring spirit burst the narrow
bounds.
Rose resolute; and like the sea-caIled
He tore new channels where he found
no way.
The tools were his first teachers,
sternly kind.
The plow. the scythe, the oar. the
echoing axe
Taught him their homely wisdom
and their peace.
He had the plain mans genius
common sense;
Yet rage for knowledge drove his
mind afar:
He fed his spirit with the bread of
books.
And slsked his thirst at all the wells
of thought.
But most he read the heart of COM
Scanned all it's secret pages stained
with tears.
Saw all the guile. saw all the piteous
pain;
And yet could keep the smile about
his lipE,
Love and forgive. see all and pardon
all;
His only fault. the fault that some
Laid even on God-tfiat he was ever
wont
To bend the law to let his mercy
out.
