S1O8,0D0,O()O SAVING
IN BUDGET IS SEEN
Increase Over First Forecast
Said Due to Heavier
Revenue Returns.

Director Lord of the Budget Bureau
told President Coolidge today he was
confident there would be a Govern
ment surplus for the fiscal year end
ing June 80, of sos, 200. .000-the
amount by which the Executive has
been hoping receipts will exceed ex-
penditures.
This estimate by the director great
ly exceeds his prediction, made last
Autumn, of SCI 200, 900 surplus. He
attributed the increase to heavier rev.
enue returns. and receipts of the Post
Office Department.
Looking ahead to the coming fiscal
year. the budget director predicted a
surplus of s373,000,0 900, the figure on
which administration and congression-
ai-leaders are basing their estimates
a sto the possible extent of tax reduc-
tions.
States Following Policy.
Director Lord told Mr. Coolidge
that the Governments example in
curtaiiing expenditures is being re-
flected in various States. He returned
to Washington today from a trip to
New England and expects to go into
Indiana and Illinois later this week,
1
plans for reducing expenses.
Hopes for future tax reduction will
lie principally with the States and
municipalities, the director said
In number Of the speeches he has
made regarding economy and the hope
for tax reduction, President Coolidge
has reminded his hearers that the
Federal Government has been alone
in this effort. He called attention
to the fact that all other governments
in the United States are still running
along on their wartime basis, all of
which, he contended would naturally
tend to keep up the taxes of the COM
munities in question.
Federal Expense 33 per Cent.
This point has been stressed by
others speaking on the subject of
economy and it's relation to tax re-
duction. While discussing it today
Gen. Lord declared that in 1921, the
Federal Government share of the
total Government expense was about
60 per cent. At this time the reduc-
tions in expense have placed the Fed
raj Governments expense at only 33
per cent of the total-the States, coun-
ties and municipalities spending the
remainder on operation.
He said that the Governor of Maine
requested him some months ago to
address the Legislature on the subject
of economy and, as result, that
State has slashed it's running expenses
several hundred thousand dollars.
Michigan also has effected some re,
duction, he said. But the real tax
burden is not going to disappear until
more States come to the realization
that the war is long since over and
that this country is again on a peace
time basis, and should economiZe.

GEN. MANG|N DIES,
WAS VERDUN HERO
French Warrior Won Fame
for Brilliant Attack on
Germans.
By the Associated Press.


PARIS, May 12.-Gen. Charles Man
gin' French hero of Verdun, died
today.
Gen. Mangin received the last sacra.
ments last night. He died at I1:2O
O'Clock this morning, with his wife,
his eight children and other members
of his family at the bedside.
Charles Marie Emmanuel Mangin.
born at Sarrebourg on July 7, 1866.
was one of the military leaders, with
a lifelong training as a soldier. who
proved bulwark of strength for
France in repelling the German in
vasion during the World War.
Saw Colonial Service.
His subaltern days were spent on
active service in Senegal and the
French Sudan, and he saw service
later in China, West Africa and Mo-
rocco.
Shortly after the outbreak of the
World War he was placed in com.
nand of the 5th Infantry Division and
later of the 11th Army Corps. His
temporary rank of general was made
permanent just before his brilliant at
tack at Verdun in October, 1916, which
resulted in the recapture from the
Germans of Fort Douaumont.
Later he became involved in the
bitter controversy which followed the
costly victory on the Aisne in the
Spring of 1917, and was deprived of
his command of the 9Th Army.
A commission of inquiry, however,
exonerated him from blame, and he
was relnstated by Clemenceau. In
July, 1918, in conjunction with Gen
DegOutte he arriod ol,t tho oroo+
counter offensive against the German
right flank, which brought the first
of the final series of allied successes.
After the war he was made a mem
ber of the superior war council and
was decorated with the grand cross
of the Legion of Honor.
He was one of those who favored
the creation of a buffer state between
France and Germany along the Rhine.

SHORT-SESSION BAN
APPROVED BY DAWES
Vice President, However, Does Not
Think Senator Georges Pro-
posal Goes Far Enough.
By the Associated Press

By the Associated Press.
ATLANTA, Ca, May 12.-In tele
gram to the Atlanta Constitution, Vice
President Charles G. Dawes agrees in
part with a suggestion of Senator
Walter F. George of Georgia, made in
an interview Sunday, but does not
think the Senator's suggestions go far
enough.
The Constitution today quotes the
Vice President:
IT have the highest respect for the
ability and character of Senator
George, and agree with him that the
constitutional amendment assembling
Congress in January after the No
vember election should be adopted.
but do not agree that the aboli-
ton of the short session of Congress
will afford proper protection against
the power of a minority or individual
Senator, under the Senate rules, to
thwart the majority in it's constitu-
tional right to legislate.
1.-The Senate rules should be amend
ed so as to protect the constitutional
rights of the MA jority without depriv-
ing the right of a Senator to be heard
fully upon any subject
Senator George had suggested that
abolition of the "short term" of Con
gress would bring about the revision

President H.
