Gov. Richie Revises Cost SGT BY
U. s. For State Rule.

According to Maryland State officials, the
per capita cost Of the State Government
for 1923 was $1l13, and not $l4.8l. as
given last week in a statement by the De-
partment Of Commerce and Labor
Difficulty in reconciline the figures Of the
Federal Government with those of the
State, as contained in the Comptroller's
report. was expressed by Gov. Richie. who
stated he had asked Walter N. Kirkman,
State purchasing agent and budget expert,
to analyze the survey Of the Department
Of Commerce and Labor.
Il cannot understand where the Federal
Department got the figures OF Sc, 1854 ,S43,
outlays for permanent Improvements" said
the Governor THE Compuoller's report
shows but $3.774,805 payments on ac-
count of loans, and all the bonds issued in
that year. according to my figures, amoun-
ed TO Sl.250000. The total expenditures
for the year were SIG. SAL. not counting
the payments on account of loans, and if
we divide that by 1900, 900, the estimated
population of Maryland. it gives a per
capita Of little less than lll3.
at seems TO me the Federal figures in
clude bond issues for permanent improve
ments as current expenses. which is not
fair. as the interest and proportionate share
OF the sinking fund for the State debt is
provided for in the other items. 1t is not
good bookkeeping to add to a debt the
amount paid on the debt"
1t is admitted by all State officials that
the per capita cost Of government in Mary
land. in common with most Of the States.
has practically doubled since 1917. In this
State the bulk Of this increase is due to
heavier appropriations for schools and pub
lie roads. The same is true in the counties
Of this State, many Of which now levy five
times as much for schools as in 1914.
Actual Government Of the State in 1928
cost $959.896. according to the report Of
the Comptroller. Maintenance Of highways
cost IS, 1875. $50 and education SIS, ITS. 438.
Maintenance Of homes hospitals and asy-
lums cost $2.00S.607.
The per capita actually paid as State
taxes was $3.27. according to the figures
OF the Department of Commerce.

fog. The plant may live, but the ex-
quisite blooms are lost for year. OF
such character have been the recent

are the fogs that affect the membranes

Tornado's Terrific PoLper

Corn-belt folks can tell awe-inspiring
tales of the ruin and desolation
wrought by tornadoes, of their terrible
destructive powers; but the cause of
this havoc is not clearly understood.
Certain it is there must be terrific
wind and some authorities have esti-
mated that the outer walls Of the fun
mel may travel at from 300 to 500
miles per hour. In the very center
there may be partial vacuum which
bursts open all objects which with
stand the outer winds. A tornado at
Its largest will be less than 1000 feet
wide at its base. A tornado descended
near CIonmel, Kans., and, passing
through the town, stopped clock at
1855 p. m. Thirty miles farther II
struck Wichita, Kans., and stopped an
other clock at 8 80 p. m. 1t had trav-
,led 80 miles In 80 minutes.
