TREASURY FUND
CHANGE ORDERED
Revised System of Account
ing Urged by Hoover viii
Go Into Effect July !.

A revised system Of keeping accounts
ID the Treasury Department, requested
~ President Hoover, will be placed
Ato effect July /, at the beginning Of
she next fiscal year.
The change will segregate three Diff
Serent funds-the general funds, spe-
Sial funds and trust funds. The new
Sne-up will show on the Treasury De-
Sartment daily statement.
The improvement was proposed by
President Hoover, It was learned and
Sas discussed by the Bureau of the
budget and the Treasury Department
which has made arrangements for put
ting it into effect.
The Pesident, it was learned, felt
that the picture of Federal finances
as presented in his budget to Con-
gresS was not quite clear. The new
plan, which the Treasury also feels
will be helpful, is understood to meet
the Presidents approval.
Mills FavOrs Change.
Undersecretary of the Treasury Mills
declared that the picture shown in the
present accounts in the daily state
ment was somewhat distorted" prin-
cipally because it included many items,
such as trust funds, which really do
not belong to the Government, but to
persons. Mr. Mills thinks it will pre-
sent better understanding of the &C
tual condition of the Government
money to have the three funds seq
regated
Director of the Budget j. C. Roop ex-
planned that the President wished to
have available from time to time fig
ures on the current operations of the
Government on each of these three
principal divisions, the general funds,
special funds and trust funds. A re-
port on this matter had been available
in the past in what is known as a COM
bined statement of receipts and ex-
penditures, balance, ETC., of the United
States, but this was available, he ex-
planned, only once year and that after
the year was over.
Handle Funds for individuals.
Trust funds include such items as in
gurance, retirement, Indian trust funds
and others. which belong to benef1ci-
aries and not to the Federal Govern
ment itself.
Special funds generally speaking are
those which are allocated before they
are received by the Government. An
example of this is the large amount of
money being paid by foreign powers as
the principal on their debts to the
United States. All Of this principal by
law can be applied only to the retire
ment Of the public debt.

she repeated Il don't know what
you mean, 1 am sure Doris knew no
more about Phyllis suicide than I

died, I believe"
Eyes" Mrs. Lambert admitted,
with sudden spirit. But I be-
lieved then and I still believe that
Cullen Benham was lying. He had
consented to her marriage to Mr..
Crosby, but he very mistakenly be-
lieved that Seymour was marrying
Phyllis for her fathers money.
Mr.. Benham said he had received
a letter from Phyllis, asking him to
cable her $4,000 and to let her come
home. But he could not produce the
letter; said he had destroyed it. I
don't believe"
yet" Dundee interrupted, "Mr.
Penham was on a ship hurrying to
his daughters side, when she was
killed"
When she committed suicide"
Mrs. Lambert corrected him.
Pardon! And Mr.. Benham I'M
questionably had cabled his daug-
ter these words: Not another cent.

IF she had asked his permission
to come home, I fail to see why he
did not wait for her in New York, :"
Mrs. Lambert pointed out.
Possibly he wanted to deal per-
sonally with the man who had
made her so unhappy" Dundee sug-
gested. Then, as Mrs. Lambert ex-
pressed her scorn only with her
blazing eyes: will you tell me
whether to your knowledge Mrs.
Crosby was jealous, or had cause to
be jealous of any other woman?"
mol I can swear that such a
thought never entered Phyllis

 Congress at that time took no ofii- cial notice of the Digest's poll and its results. Perhaps it took the view that prohibition was too recent to have had a fair chance. And the Anti-Sa> loon League and its allies were even more powerful then than they are now, while there was no organized opposition. Today the opponents of prohibition have organizations which are leading in the effort to effect a change
 With this unity of effort, and eiyht years more of experience from which to draw conclusions than were avail able in 1922, it seems not unreason- able to conclude that a wet majority out of 20,000,0o0 votes actually cast would not be allowed to pass un- noticed by the nations lawmakers.

THE LITERARY DIGEST POLL.
tJuneau Empire.l

While the numbe< of votes. can- vassed in the nationwide poll of The Literary Digest on prohibition Is in- consequential in relation to the total to be taken. yet the early trend to- ward change in the present status cannot be without significance. Fig ures for the second weeks count. representing less than ; per cent of the estimated 20.oo0,0O0 votes. to be cast. show both repeal and modifica- ton are ahead of enforcement. and that the first two combined, termed by The Digest as .'wets" and ''moists," have 3 majority of almost three to one over the third group.
 The fairness of The Digest's polls has been too well established for it to be seriously questioned in this in- stance Undoubtedly, the vote far is representative of cross section of the population in p States ad .Dlstrict of Columbia from which 1t was taken And regardless of the final outcome Of the balloting, the re- suit will fairly depict, we believe, the sentiment Of the country as whole
 Some eight years ago The Digest took it's first poll on national prohi- bition, something that has generally been overlooked since the. present canvass was sannnnnced- In 1922, when prohibition was comparatively new, 1t conducted poll on a basis of votes apportianed. among the States. in accordance with their population.

Seekers After Congressional,
Nomination in Eighth District.
Present Platforms.
Special Dispatch to The star.

FAIRFAX. Va, May 2o.-The first
political rally Of the campaign for the
Democratic nomination for Representa-
tive from the eighth congressional dis
trict was held yesterday in Fairfax
County, when three Of the four candi-
dates spoke in the Court House on
the opening day Of court. Through the
courtesy Of Judge Walter Mccarthy,
court was adjourned from 1890 to 8
O'Clock to permit the citizens, who
packed the court room to the doors,
with standing room at premium, to
hear the views Of T.. II. De Jarnette,
jr.; Crandall Mackey and Frank BAH.
ON Wet Platform.
De Jeanette of Orange Is running ON
o platform which advocates an act OF
Congress permitting every man TO buy
one quart of liquor per month. Fail
ing enactment, Of this law, he favors
repeal Of the Volstead act.
De Jarnette stated that the pros
perity Of the farmers was lower now
than IL has been Ia years; that he
favors q protective tariff on lumber
and pulp wood to aid the eighth dis
trict: also o prohibitive tariff on butter
substitutes. beef, wool and other things
raised In this district. He favors an
act of Congress requiring manufacturers
In interstate commerce to sell on fair
competitive basis, to enable small
merchants to compete with chain stores
and mail order houses.
Mackey disagreed with De Jarnette's
proposed quart-per- man-per-month law
Stating that in his opinion 1t would in
crease rather than diminish the supply
of bootleggers. He ridiculed his sug-
gestions for protective tariff on lum-
Der, saying that 90 per cent Of the wood
pulp used Is produced here. In his
opinion no protective tariff Will help
the farmer; the only way Is to lower
the price Of commodities.
Mackey promised II elected to fight
to keep Great Falls and its potential
water power from falling into the handa
Of private capital. He advocated the
Canadian system Of manufacture and
control with low prices and universal
use Of electricity for power on the
farms.
Mackey denounced the present laws
as demoralizing to the youth Of the
country and claimed that the cost OF
enforcing prohibition laws in the past
10 years and the loss Of revenue from
licensing liquor has amounted to ST.
00O, 000, 900, which should have been put
to constructive work. He also favored
repeal Of the Volstead law, and asked
why the eighteenth amendment was
more sacred than the fifteenth.
Stands on Record.
State Senator Frank Ball asked the
people to examine his record Of the
past and Judge Of his future by what
he has done for them in his six years In
the State Legislature, where he said he
served at real sacrifice in order to
gain the experience to At himself for
the bigger and broader work OF Con-
Representative r. Walton Moore and
expressed his regret that the latter wa
not again o candidate for the Demo-
cratic nomination.
Ball differed from his three oppo-
