ECONOMY
montana Record-HeraId)

Efficiency in government was
discussed by President Coolidge
lately while talking to government
executives and employees, and Bud
get Director Lord told the men
that the ideal to be striven for
this fiscal year is a reduction of
expenditures below the budget es-
innate of one per cent. 1t was ex-
planned by the chief executive that
efficiency in government is Sc.
cured by giving better and more
service at less cost, and not by
cutting off schools, courts, law
and order agencies, and other in.
stitutions indispensable to the good
of society.
The president also limited of
further economies in government
administration in the course of
the years. And he expressed the
opinion that the example set by
the economy programs of his adj
sninistration is of the greatest
gnificance.
No doubt there is hardly any
greater ideal in administration of
fixed offices and institutions than
that Of efficiency and economy.
The executive also points out an
other cardinal principle of the
best kind Of government, and that
is the elimination of i~nessential
institutions and activities.
That is the point at which the
American people are weakest in
government. If governments,
from the municipal to the nation
al, were subjected to the rigid
test of usefulness to the people
applied to business, doubtless they
would be Immediately reduced in
magnitude by fifty per cent, pos
sibly more. If that principle were
also applied to their efficiency and
economy, doubtless there would
be an equal reduction in cost with
equivalent gain in service.
Even this, the most advanced
government, is still experimenting
with principles of government,
while most of the governments in
the Old World have reached some
kind of governmental stalemate.
Administration, being secondary I
to the government itself, it natur-
ally remains more or less ineffi- '
and wasteful. Progress in
government depends upon the de- n
termination and application of a
principles. Progress in ad- .
ninistration, while moving to II
iome extent On the path of in
'reased efficiency and decreased s.
:ost, will be greatest when the L
lation begins in earnest to test +
II offices and institutions by the u
'rinciple of usefulness and need W
illness, and abolishes without 81
1ery those that are not needed.

The United States Treasury de-
partment estimates that there are
5000 misers in America, who keep
their hoardings merely to gloat
over them. The estimate is that
$500, 00O, 900 in cash is hidden
away in mattresses, holes in the
wall, in socks, and in various clev-
er or foolish places. Money hid
den away and not used is essen
TALLY dead. Much of it is de-
stroyed in fires, by rats, by the
death and forgetfulness of the
hiders. It's an utterly foolish
thing to do-to slave away to earn
money, putting ones lifeblood in
to it, and then lay it away to
mould or to be stolen or lost. The
only money worth having is the
money at work.

from President Calvin Coolidge
to a Reverend Sherman Potter.
"My dear Mr.. Potter,
"You have asked me for a brief
statement on why a man should
Identify himself with the church.
Speaking for myself only, I should
say because through a devout
church association he is certain
of more inspiration for the great
efforts of life and of strength to
translate that inspiration into due
accomplishment.
Most sincerely yours,
Calvin Coolidge"

Going 1t Blind

"Folks are prone to go it blind,
Along the calf-paths of the mind,
And work away from sun to sun
To do what other folks have done.
They follow in the beaten track
And in and out and forth and back,
And still their dubious course pursue
To keep the path that others do"
