government on June %, 1925, claimed
a reduction in federal expenditures
exclusive of the moneys applied to
the reduction of the public debt and
the operations of the postal SERVICE
amounting to S2,0S1, 100000. He then
added The history of public affairs
will hardly show a parallel case of
retrenchnent in the cost of govern
ment.'
THE implication is, of course, that
by the practice of rigid economy fed
eral expenditures have been reduced
by this amount, when the fact is the
expenditures have been reduced be-
cause the war is at an end and be-
cause it is no longer necessary to
maintain the government on war
basis.
"As we have seen, appropriations
for the ordinary current expense or
the government have not been reduc-
ed to any material extent-probably
not at all if we could identify the war
items in established departments.
The president is claiming this $2,OS1,-
100000 reduction in the expenditures
of the current year from those of the
year ended 1921.
AS this year is not complete and
is not possible to say exactly of what
items this figure is made up. How
ever, it can be ascertain ed with
reasonable degree of certainty by
comparing the expenditures for 1924
with those of 1921.
1.-The following items are the prin-
cipal ones showing decreases in 1874
from 1921:
Railroad control (abandoned)
s739, 900.
~. S. Shipping board (decrease)
| $35,1A4OO0.
European food relief (abandoned)
81, 659. 900.
Navy (reduced to peace basis)
; $647,756,00 900.
Army (reduced to peace basis)
SASS, 636, 900.
ALIEN property custodian (reduc-
ed $4,000.
Total $1,SS2, $4,000.
"Substracting from the presidents
claimed reduction, $2,0S1, 100000,
these known items, all incident to the
war-$1, 1892, $4,000 we have a maxi
mum of $19S,410,000. representing
other war expense items not readily
identifiable, further decreases in these
items during the current year and
reductions in war items of old de-
partments of government not dis
closed by financial reports.
"In the main. the federal admins
tration is entitled to credit, if that | e
deserved, for not maintaining a war
organization and continuing war ac-
tivities in peace times-nothing
more"
Governor Smith closed with three
recommendations for state reforms.
He proposed a shorter ballot, election
of governors j years when there is
no presidential election and form
of executive budget giving the gov
ernor power commensurate with his
responsibility.
Three naval planes arrived here
late today, descending on Thompson's
Lake. They will remain until We'd
nesday afternoon, for the purpose of
taking the governors assembled in
annual conference here on any flight
they may desire.
