District Budget Slash
Will Cripple Schools

The school system must pay for any economzng necessary
in the District.
This is the unfortunate and deplorable conclusion be
drawn from the budget for the fiscal year 1885, just
mitted to Congress
The budget the total estimate for District expenses
$4010 below the appropriations for the fiscal year.
And in effectng this economy, which may may be
necessary estimates for public school buildings
current appropriation.
This blow which may disastrous to the hopes Of
the entire District that in future year the congestion and
crowding in the school system might be eliminated
The school authorities intimately in touch with educa
ona needs of the CITY, had already had their estimates pruned
far below the safety point by the District Commissioners before
the figures fell under the knife of the Budget Bureau
The report of the superintendent of schools reveals
that the building program instead of being curaed should be
expanded.
It is dscourang that the Federal bureau could not have
accepted the word those in charge of the schools and made
more reasonable estimate for buildings.
The effect of the curaed school building program will not
be Immediately noticeable It's nqus will become apparent
several years from when the need for economy will have
passed.
District residents should rally the CAPITOL and urge fair
minded members of Congress disregard the Budget Bureau
recommendations in this respect and substitute instead the
original program presented the Commissioners by the school
authorities.
In many other respects the budget is admirable
It by $6855 the fund for and opera
ton of the schools This increase necessary to provide add
na teachers and other personnel and OF the growth
Of the system Congress should keep this figure intact
The police department needs the additional funds aocated to
and slight increase in the street appropriation Will care
for some of the improvements necessary.

LISTEN, WORLD!
By Elsie Robinson

} life. And in yours. But why?
Answer me honestly-why?
Was It because, out of a world
of interests, we picked the
church?
NO, 1T WASN'T.
Let's be perfectly frank-we
olders, Who boast of our supe-
rior honesty. Why was the
church our first interest when
we were kids? 1t wasn't be-
cause we chose it as our first
interest. It was because it was
our ONLY interest-THERE
WEREN'T ANY MORE.
Just the Church
There weren't any movies. =.
any automobile Sunday rides. =.
any golf links. any swimming
tanks. any public dances that
a decent kid could attend.
There was just the church. It
was not only the sole source of
religion but also of amusement
and SOCIAL CONTAC T.
Where'd we wear our best
clothes? Where'd we meet our
new beauX? That was where.
And now there are a hundred
places beside the church where
p youngSter can find beauty and
friendliness and healthy pleas
ure and excitement. And they
go those places. As-don kid
yourself-you and I would have
done if we had had their
chances, but that doesn't mean
that they are worse than we were.
It dosn't even mean that they
are not religious. There are, of
course, glaring examples of
young indecency. There were
young people who contrived to
be glaringly indecent in our
day too-even with our meager
opportunities.
BUT I HONESTLY BELIEVE
THAT THIS PRESENT GEN
GRAFTON OF YOUNGSTERS
IS THE MOST DECENT THE
WORLD HAS EVER SEEN
AND THE MOST RELIGIOUS.
Desire for Truth
For what is the essence of
religion-the true worship of
God? A set Of gestures? A
fixed program? No. A DE-
SIRE FOR TRUTH-A HATE
OF SH MA REBELLION
AGAIN ST ALL THAT IS
FALSE AND WEAK AND UN-
CLEAN.
And this desire. this hate,
this rebellion. burns in the
heart of Youth today. It is
the secret of Youths flame.
Plenty of SCOT in that flame
many a mistaken clutch at
truth-many a false and fool
ish rebellion for freedom. But
somewhere, deep within the
smoke, a clear, white point Of
flame, flaring against the an
cient darkness of the human
soul.
BELIEVE IN THAT FLAME.

For the Pacifists

These genemen-and lades-used to have pathetic trust
in such interesting scraps Of the Nine Power Treaty.

And they Uncle Sam COMPEL those who have
torn them up to put them together again.
Well how? When you compel other nations to do things
you compel them with army and navy But thanks
pacfists and nternatonasts have army speak Of
and not much navy. The compelling power has been
whitfield down until it do little if any, compelling.
To be specific suppose tell Japan respect the Nine
Power Treaty and the Kellogg Pact To this Japan says
every sorry" We then say, 1--WE will make you" Japan
says, "Come and do it,
Then what? Perhaps paciists nternatonas can

Mr.. Rainey Makes
A Proposition

And what is meant by un-
d e 81 r able "obstruction"
There have been policies of
the President during the
last three years that have
contributed to the present
depression; these were op-
posed by the Democrats at
the time; the people have
since voted to sustain the
opposition of the Democrats
and have put them in power
in the House.
Would it be "obstruction"
for the Democrats to oppose
such policies during the
present session?
And let the Administra-
tion supporters answer this
one:
The present tariff act,
which most business men
and almost all economists
agree is destructive of for
eign trade, on which our
prosperity d pend S, was
forced through by the Presi-
dent over the opposition of
the Democrats. That which
the Democrats warned would
come to pass has come to
pass. AS a result we are
now confronted by the
Chinese tariff walls of other
nations, and the whole
world suffers. Now Mr..
Rainey, Democratic leader in
the House, makes this prop
osition:
"0ur tariff must be sub
stantially lower. Lower
rates can only be put into
effect with safety to our
industries by resorting to
reciprOcal duties. We
should pass a bill with the
support of both parties, low
ering tariff rates with a
reciprocity clause providing
that none of the rates can
be called into effect until,
as to some item or group OF
items, some foreign nation
shall establish the rate or
lower tariff rates"
Here is an appeal to the
President and his party for
the Suspension of partisan
ship" 1t is an appeal that
business men will support.
Is the President ready to
suspend partisanship7

The proposal contains promise of genuine municipal
economy and greater convenience to the motorst
The to the city of tags period Of three years
would be cut to onethird of the total There would also
be large saving of distributing and handling
the tags
The moorst would be saved two trips to have his tags

on his machine and for three years he would not
have to be worried
There arguments which be made against the sug

Of the plan
On the whole the advantages Of such system would seem

ferences in the will of the
majority. There is no other
road to victory.
That is the reason we have
a recurrence of the demand
for the abrogation of the
two-thirds rule in the ma
tional conventions. Periodi-
cally the demand comes, but
unhappily only on the verge
of a convention when the in
terests of candidates are in
volved. Yet there have been
but three times in a hundred
years when the candidate re-
ceiving a majority on any
ballot was not conceded the
nomination. In each in
stance the defeat of the man
having a majority on any bal
lot through the two-thirds
rule left bitterness, and in
one instance snatched defeat
from certain victory.
There never was a reason
for the rule that could be
reconcilcd with Jeffersonian
principles. A convention
adopted it to satisfy a mo-
mentary purpose; a conven-
tion can abrogate it; and we
hope to live to see it wiped
out. We are thinking of no
candidate or candidates, per-
suaded that whoever gets the
majority in the next conven-
tion will be the nominee.
The Washington times., 1931-12-10

Nov that the Admins
IN tration is so bent on
the suspension Of partisan
ship" we ought to have
definition of just what that
means. The orderly opera
tion of our form of govern
ment depends on the party
system the theory is that
opposing policies and prin-
ciples are submitted to the
people through parties at
the polls; and that the poll
cies and principles sane
toned by the people shall
be put in operation.
We hear much of the
viciousness Of bipartisan
ship in politics. 1t usually
means that leaders get to-
gether and agree to disre-
gard everything but their
personal convenience and
advantage. That leaves the
purposes Of the people in
elections out.
There is another interpre-
tation Of the meaning of the
present proposal for the sus-
pension Of partisanship.
There are pressing problems
that go to the economic well
fare of the people and, just
now, to the relief of millions
who are dependent on the
bread Of charity, that need
have no partisan slant at all.
Perhaps it would be well
to put this to the test early
when Senator Wagner rein
PRODUCES the employment bill
which Congress passed last
year and the President killed
by a pocket veto.
