$4,000 less than the Commissioners are

Mr.. Dougherty revealed that for some

and other subjects vitality affecting q

be carried out unless the Commissioner

statement he told the police that he
knew he was dying and wanted to con

clear conscience. When 1t was learned,
however, that he had lied concerning
his own identity, police expressed the
belief that his identification Of his COM

GERS who questioned him are convinced
he went to his death determined TO
shield his companion and to aid him
In his escape If possible. When AID
ridge broke out of the penitentiary, he
was serving 1o-year sentence for
aiding another prisoner to escape.
The fact that the initials IN the nat
do not correspond with the name given
by Aldridge as that of his companion
lent credence to the belief held by
police that the man they want Is
known by some other name. The deal
er's name in the hat Is still legtble,
however. and It was deemed possible
that the purchaser might be traced
through this means.
Pistol Of Expensive Make.
The pistol which Aldridge had
clutched in his hand when he was
picked I'D in the street was OF an
expensive make and nearly new, &C

he believed they had been here for
some time. He bases this belief on
the fact that In conversation with
Aldridge ut the hospital the colored
man evinced q knowledge Of the city
which he could hardly have acquired
In so short q time.
Acting on the theory that Aldridge
at least has been here since he escaped
from prison, all rooming houses for
colored people in the city were being
canvassed In the belief that one would
be found from which two occupants are
missing.

Another possibility-that the man
who wounded Mcdonald is resident
Of this city who has been snieidng

being considered.
In some quarters the opinion was ex-
pressed that Mcdonald was personally
acquainted with the two men, for, while
he was on the way to the hospital. he
gasped, James shot meW Lieut.. Kelly,
however, was inclined to scout this
theory. He said that Mcdonald prob
ably ascertained their names when he
placed them under arrest, and that
there was enough difference in their
appearance to distinguish which one

was regarded as 50 serious today that
even the police were not permitted to

There was nothing whatever Of

to see. in revealing flashes Of his able
mind that he regarded himself as only
the trustee for the Nation; that he
felt deep and personal responsibility to
the taxpayers for the wise expenditure
OF every dollar appropriated by Con-
gress.
Mr. Coolidge believed, as I did, in
getting 100 cents worth of work out
of every dollar that left the Federal
Treasury. He believed also, as I did,
In spending no dollar that could be

That sort Of backing was 100 per

it up. In no case did he reverse an
approved budget accommodates, so
far as I can now recall. without dis
cussing the subject with the budget
director.
That attitude on the Presidents part
led members of Congress to take up
such subjects with the Budget Bureau,
where they were discussed in friendly
cooperation. Thus an atmosphere OF
friendliness was created and the Presi-
