Government Economy.

II am for economy" said President
Coolidge last night at the semi-annual
budget conference of government Off
Gals. After that 1 am for more
economy
Thus tersely the President expressed
the design of all the people of this
country for more buSinesslike and
affairs. The expenditure of "other peo-
Pies money" is always likely to be ex.
|, travagant. In business corporations
dollars are the property Of those who
are charged with their use. In non
commercial organizations only pride of
efficient administration restraints from
lavishness. In government there is in
fact partnership element, inaSmuch
as every one who serves, every worker
in the ranks as we'll as every superior
officer. is a.taxpayer. and therefore a
contributor of the funds.
Mr.. Coolidge, following the lines laid
dewn by his predecessor, appeals to
the government service to take into
consideration this partnership factor
The millions that are spent In support
of the governments activities all come
from taxes in one form or another.
Everybody pays. The members OF
Congress who enact the appropria-
tons and the administrative officials
who disburse them are all taxpayers,
are all contributors to the revenues
that are disbursed in such great sums.
~ Economies are always possible in
the government service. President
Coolidge. set a mark of expense reduc-
ton for the federal officials at last
nights meeting, when he told them
that he wants the expenditures re-
duced by $4,000, 900 50 as to establish
a surplus for this new fiscal year,
which ends June 80, 1895. of &le9, o00,-
900 instead of the $4,000, 600 new esti-
mated. This reduction of the sur
plus to $25,000,0O is the result mainly
Of the bonus law. The President wants
to maintain the safety margin beyond
that meager point Of $25.o0o.o 900.
This can be done, With q budget of
the present size there are many "cor-
ners" that can be cut, many items
that can be reduced, many blanket ap-
preparations that can be brought to
the point of specific and exact outlay,
There is no disposition in this coun,
try to hamper legitimate and health
full federal activities or to lessen the
useful contributions of the govern
ment to public knowledge, safety and
culture. But there is a strong de-
mand that the same principles that
apply in business should apply in gov
eminent, and that dollars should be
used effectively and In a spirit Of re-
spect for the source from which they
come.

Psychology" Of the convention. They
are concerned to make the most
dramatic showing of their strength.
Each is watching sharply for the

occurred one Of the characteristic &C.

Such sudden changes are calculated
to start things moving. But last night
nothing started, After the two delega.
tons had recorded their shifts to their
second choice candidates the eeaven-
ton settled hack to the slow process
Of occasional singie-vote changes. In
this case one change counteracted the
other.
Perhaps the fact that in 1912 and in
1920 the convention had to stay in ses.
sion for many hours of balloting ID
factor at present to keep the deadlock
unbroken. 1t may be that there Is
prideful disposition on the part of
partisans Of the two leaders to break
the record of 1912, SO closely aR
preached by 1920. In the case of the
largest block of Smith delegates, 90
in number, they are virtually at
home and under small expense COM
pared with the majority Of the MeAdoo
delegates, who come from long dis
tances. They can stand longer siege
than can the opposition.
1t is a merry game, in which the
chief winners are the hotel keepers
and puFVeyoFs of subsistence in the
convention city. Probably in a day or
two-uniess the unexpected happens
and the break comes today-the dele
gates will have tired of the stubborn
contest and yielded. Who the winner
will be cannot be foretold. This is no
time for prophecy.

Fiscal Year.

This is the first day of the fiscal
year. New Year day in q way, in a
number of ways. Appropriations for
this fiscal year. July I. 1924, to June
80. 1925. became available today. Why
the fiscal year should be different from
the calendar year Is not plain to most
men. and the matter might be enter
tainingly explained by financier or
historian of taxes and tax methods. In
some countries the fiscal year agrees
with the calendar year, and in some
countries the fiscal year begins on one
date ana on other dates in other coun-
tries. Unless there has been q recent
change the fiscal year in Great Brit.
ain and Germany ends on March 81
and begins April /. and in France the
fiscal year ends December 81 and
agrees with the calendar year. In
this country July is the New Year
day of the fiscal year. The federal
and ending Of our fiscal year seems to
be in the act of Congress establishing
the Treasury Department, but perhaps
a search back Of that period would
show that it is of earlier origin. Our
adjective fiscal" as all schoolmen
know, comes from discus" In the
oldest written Latin that has come to
us the word meant a wicker basket.
Later it came to mean a money basket
and then a purse When Cicero was
speaking about half a century before
the birth of Christ. and when the poet
Junius Juveaales was writing in the
first century ADA ''fiscus" had come
to stand for the state treasury.
