Deplores Suffrage Issue.
Reader Wants Advisory Board
Considered on Own Merits.

To the Editor Of The Star:
The article by George A. Rick
er in The Sunday Star on the proposed
advisory board" composed of Dis
trict citizens, to assist the District
Commissioners, was interesting.
There are honest differences Of
opinion on the need of such board
There are also honest differences Of
opinion on how a board should be
constituted and how it should be es-
tablished.
Whether one be for or against an
advisory board" the argument pro
or con should be on the merits OF
the board, and not whether it is a
step toward suffrage or away from
suffrage. Either the board is ad-
visabIe or inadvisable separate and
apart from the problem of suffrage
or the board should not be considered
as subject to merit our attention.
It is a fact too well known 10
mention at length that here are vari-
Gus and decided opinions on the kind
of suffrage that should be established
in the District-even there are those
who are quite opposed to any form
of suffrage in the District
AS between establishing an "ad-
visory board" and establishing suf-
frage of any kind or degree in the
District, naturally ths latter is by
far the more important and engross-
ing subject. Should the two sub
jects continue to be discussed as
one problem, the subject of suffrage
will naturally overshadow the sub
ject of an advisory board" Hence
the advisory board" will be lost sight
of in the fight for or against suf
frage.
Many who are in favor Of an
advisory board" of some kind are
entirely opposed to suffrage. Many
of those who are in favor of some
form of suffrage are themselves split
into various camps-some desiring
certain minimum degree of suffrage
and some the maximum enjoyed by
the States. Then there are the sew
eral political parties, even they are
composed of minority and majority,
not to mention the independents and
"renegades." These various elements
exist in a dormant state in the Dis
trict of Columbia.
Why diverge into discussion OF the
vital problem of suffrage with all its
pregnant possibilities for controversy
when the sole object of those who
to form & board of conciliation" and
good will toward all, for all, by all,
hoping thus TO expedite business.
To press the question, and 1t is n
que stion, that to erect an advisory
board is a step toward suffrage Is
TO invite the lack of cooperation Of
the Commissioners, who in their Of
fetal capacity may not give hearty
sympathy to the furtherance of Dis
trict suffrage. If the entire sympathy
of the District Commissioners be not
had the advisory board" is a futile
thing, and will and must inevitably
become the road to discord. And dis
cord fathered by the Federation of
Citizens Associations is the seed of
its own destruetion-no good citizen
wishes that.
May we not-in fact. had we not
better-discuss the merits of the "ad~
yisory board by itself on it's own
merits in the simple form presented
20 the citizens by the Commissioners

borhood of 1.2y7. GOT. 900 as the

| borhood of s1.2T7 .ooo. 900 az the
| charges for the operations of the Fed
eral Government. Compare this with
ordinary expenditures Of the Govern
ment in the year 1914. In that year
the ordinary expenditures, deducting
postal expenditures and expenditures
for the debts OF the Government, were
about s72s.oo0,000
In other words. the expenditures
for the ordinary governmental opera
tions during the coming year are
about rs per cent in excess of the ex-
penditures for like purposes in 1914.
But the situation in the United States
has vastly changed in the last decade,
due in great part to the upheaval
wrought by the war, but also in q
measure to the normal increase in
the size Of the ceuntry's population,
and to the added activities which have
been undertaken by the Government,
including the enforcement Of prohi-
bition in accordance with the eight
zenith amendment to the Constitution,
wages. standards OF costs of material
have all advanced in this period. 1t
is now six years since the close of
the war. The country has very large
ly returned to normal conditions. But
costs generally today are so per cent
higher than they were in 1914. That
being the case, il does not appear
that the total Of the ordinary ex-
penditures OF the Government, about
70 per cent greater than those in
1914, are much out of proportion with
those of that earlier year.
The country has taken kindly to
the administrations crusade for econ
omy in Government expenditures,
with tax reduction as the reward for
such economy. But there is a limit
beyond which the country cannot
wisely go in reducing Government eI-
penditures, if the Government is to
serve the people TO advantage. II
should not curtaii, for example, the
expenditures for national defense be-
yond q point of safety. 1t must keep
pace with demands for guarding the
public health. 1t must continue the
development Of the country's water
ways and highways.
The tremendous jump in Govern
ment expenditures compared with
those of prewar days has its parallel
in other periods Of American history.
Go back to the ante.bellum days Of
1860. Then the ordinary expenses
of the Government We're about

900, 200. In the succeeding years
these expenditures were gradually
reduced, until in 1873 they reached
s237 600, 600. Then the climb began
again, as the demands Of the people
for greater governmental activity
grew. until in 1890 the $500, ,o00. 900
mark had again been passed. Came
the war with Spain, and the jump in
expenditures followed anew, with a
decrease after the war, but another
steady climb thereafter until the flrst
billion-doilar Congress, more than a
decade ago.
AS the country grows the demands
for additional activities of the Gov
ernment increase. The Government
