On July 1st, 1922, the federal gov
ernment began its business year fac
ing a prospective deficit of s823,000,-
600. That is, the estimated expenses
for the following IL months were
1925, 100000 greater than the esti.
mated income.
The year is ended. Instead of the
deficit there is a cash surplus of $780,.
100000. Instead of being out OF
pocket 1923, 100000 which would have
to be raised by additional taxes, we
are in pocket s200.0O0,O0 In other
words, the American taxpayer is ST.

was expected year ago he would be-
This is the result of Republican pol
icies and diligent, constant, hard work
upon the part of the executives of the
Harding administration. In this
work to enforce every possible econo-
my consistent with proper and eff
cient government, President Harding
has been the leader
He assumed leadership in the fight
for public economy Immediately after
he was inaugurated. He recommend
ed in his first message to the special
session of Congress the enactment OF
budget law. The Republican Con-
gress, thoroughly in sympathy with
him and his recommendation, prompt
ly enacted the budget law.
The President then FASTENED the
setting up of the Budget Bureau ma
chinery so that the fiscal year begin
ming July /, 1921, might be begun un-
der the budget act. Soon after the
creation of the budget bureau machin-
cry he called a mass meeting of all
the executives and their assistants to
the number Of approximately boo.
This was the first time in the history
Of the United States that meeting OF
the governments business executives
had ever been held for any purpose.
President Harding In his recent ad-
dress before the fourth meeting OF
this character, stated that that first
meeting wss @an epoch in the admin
istration of government business
Undoubtedly it wasl At that first
meeting In 1921, President Harding
outlined in positive and unequivocal
terms his program of economy IN
public affairs, involving the introduc-
ton Of business methods and prsc-
taces, the elimination Of All waste, the

reduction of expenditures all along
the line, the cooperation and coordi-
nation of all those executives respon-
sible for public administration
During the intervening two years,
President Harding has held personal
conferences, without number, with in
dividuals and groups of individuals
connected with the executive branch
of the government for the purpose OF
securing the utmost economy. He has,
by public exhortation, private admon-
ition, and personal example, made
economy in public affairs the out
standing policy of his administration.
At the close of the first complete
fiscal year-June 80, 1922-several
departments of the government re-
turned unexpended appropriations to
the United States treasury, the first
time such thing was done in the
history of the United States. 1t was
done in spite of the fact that the ap-
preparations for that fiscal year were
s714, 900 900 less than for the previous
fiscal year.
Not content with this record, the
executive departments cooperating
with the budget bureau, and acting
under the direction and leadership OF
President Harding, have made an even
greater record for economy IN the year
just drawing TO close, the second
complete fiscal year of the Harding
administration.
AS President Harding pointed out
in his address last week to the mem
bers Of the governments business or
ganization, "there has been actual re-
duction Of 1856, 100000 in the expen-
ditures of the departments and estao-
engaged in the ordinary
business of the government" as COM
pared with the corresponding expen-
last year.
Nor is the President and the admin
istration satisfied with this record.
About to enter upon another fiscal
year, beginning July LIST, the President
admonished the mass meeting OF ex-
ecutives that he expects during the
coming year even greater economy
than has been practiced this year or
was praeticed last year. Although the
for the coming year
are less than any year since the ad-
came in. or any year

Editors Note--The controversy IN
the Christian Science church society
has not been definitely settled so far
as we can see, but having been re.
quested to publish the following letter
and second article on page eight
we ara inserting both with no othe,
comment:)
To the Editor:
Your paper of this week carries a
news article about the report filed in
the Massachusetts Supreme judicial
Court by the Master in Chancery ap-
pointed to hear the evidence in the
suit Of John v. Dittemore, who was
removed in 1919 from the Christian
Science Board of Directors. 1t has
been definitely ascertained that
christian Science Committe on In
formation" is style adopted by Mr..
Dittemore in submitting this article
to the press. The article is mislead-
ing and unfair. The Masters report
is in no sense decision. A single JUS
tice of the Supreme Court has power
to accept or reject it in whole or in
part; or single justice may pass it
to the full court to which it must fin
ally go. 1t is true that in many re-
spects the Masters findings are un-
favorable to the Christian Science
board Of directors, but this should not
surprise those familiar with the his
tory of the litigation. This Master
fled a previous report with findings
favorable to Mr.. Dittemore and to
deposed trustee Of the Christian Sci
ence Publishing society. The report
in Mr.. Dittemore's case was filed
against the protest of the Christian
Science board Of directors that they
should be first permitted to testify
concerning Mr.. Dittemore's conduct
before his removal. The Supreme
Court refused to accept the report OF
the Master in either case; entered a
final decree confirming the Christian
Science board Of directors in it's re-
moval of the trustee Of the Christian
Science Publishing society and re-
turned the Dittemore case to the Mas
ter to hear all Of the evidence, includ-
ing that to which he had declined to
listen. Many of the Masters unfa-
vorable findings are based on the un-
corroborated testimony of Mr.. Ditto
more. though contradicted in most
particulars by three other directors.
1t would seem, therefore, that the di-
rectors were amply justified in re-
questing the appointment Of differ
ent master, because Of the conviction
that he was incapable of making un-
findings.
All loyal Christian Scientists vigor-
ously oppose any attempt to vary or
change the Church Manual or form of
church government outlined by Mary
Baker Eddy. Mr.. Dittemore has been
untiring In his efforts to obtain
in both. OF this activity he
tells Us nothing In his news article.
Very sincerely yours,

cation IN Montana. Dated June 30,

that of not breaking clean, was a de-

when one fighter would seize the other
by the hair and, holding him thus,
beat him into insensibility. But to
suit the title holder, this privilege was
written into the articles.
Gibbons was the favorite before the
fight and afterwards, and although
he admits his defeat this time, there
may be comeback in which public
sentiment will be SO strong as to COM
pei the observance of the established
rules of pugilism.

With fear and anxiety people all
over the world read about the capture
OF foreigners in China and the holding
IN captivity. Clamor about the undis-
turbed attitude of our government is
heard throughout the country. The
same people who are ready to send an
army into China are also ready to pay
a high price to a lobbyist to keep con-
gress from passing a federal anti
lynching bill. Over 1900 negroes have
been mobbed in this country in the
1oth century. almost 50 have been
burned alive since the armistice. In
Florida state senators are defending
IN sweet southern voices the whipping
OF convicts. a condition which ArEen-
tina and Japan repudiated. We speak
about the rights and duties of civilized
nations. how about cleaning up first?

Cuba Raising Cain

The boycott against sugar may OF
may not be justified. but the Cubans
have little cause for raging at Amcri-
cans on that account. They owe their
independence to the United States, and
on at least two occasions since it was
achieved. the Cuban government has
been rescued from its own folly and
set on its feet once more. Were it
not for the United States, it is not too
much to say that Cuba would cease to
exist as an independent nation. and
speedily sink into the colonial con-
dition from which she was rescued in
