ECONOMY HAS
SPOTLIGHT ON
CAPITAL STAGE
Three Inquiries Are On This
Week; Seek to. Speed
Democrat Pledge.
BY RUTH FINNEY
Times STAFF Writer

WASHINGTON, Nov. 28.-Pro-
grams for putting into effect at
once the Democratic campaign
pledge of billion dollar reduction
in government expenditures already
are pouring into congress.
Business and large federal in
come tax payers extremely are
anxious that the pledge be fulfilled
before Governor Franklin D. Roose-
welt becomes President, and before
the new Democratic congress takes
office, in order that increased taxes
may be avoided in the fiscal year
1884.
The budget for this year will be
sent to congress by President Her
bert Hoover the first week of De-
cember. and according to present
plans the necessary appropriation
bills will be enacted before
the Hoover administration ends
March 4.
Hoover's proposed savings, so far
announced, fall short of the amount
promised by Governor Roosevelt.
magazine MAKES TrOpOSdl
One of the most complete pro-
grams so far presented is offered by
the Magazine of Wall Street.
It proposes cutting veterans costs
$500, 100000, accomplishing half the
desired saving in that one item.
1t would cut public works con-
struction to the bone in saving $685.
100000, and would take another 10
per cent from the salaries of all fed
eral employees to save another $780,
100000.
In the post office departmet the
program proposes elimination of
ship and air mail subsidies, on
which $4O,OOO,000 is being spent in
the current fiscal year, and also a so
per cent reduction in rural free de-
livery expenditures.
1t estimates that 100000 might
be saved by consolidation and re-
organization of government bureaus,
but this figure is questioned in
Washington since entire abolition of
all independent commissions and
bureaus, exclusive of the veterans
bureau would save only about $751;
100000.
Three Inquiries Are Held
Other economy plans under con-
sideration here call for making sub
stantial savings in army and navy
expenditures either by straight cuts
in the budgets of both departments,
or by consolidating the two into a
department of national defense, and
for reduction or elimination of the
$45, 100000 spent annually to enforce
prohibition.
The scope of the savings will be
determined in part as the result
Of three inquiries this week:
1. The house appropriations COM
mittee resumed hearings on the ap-
preparations bill.
2. The senate economy committee
will meet Thursday.
3. The joint committee to investi-
gate veterans relief costs will begin
its work before the week ends.

ANALYSIS OF VOTE IN

Both Parties Are Very Much Interested in Just How Strong the C0nl- munists and I6depend- ents Are to Show in Waterbury

Analysis of the vote so far regis tered in Waterbury in the interests of the communist and independent republican parties, obtained to-day by the Democrat, showed that there are on record 1,068 electors backing the two organizations. This is exclusive of the figures claimed by the socialist and labor organiza- tions, which are active in Water bury.
 over a week ago the inde- pendent republican party showed a registration of 500 voters in It's report filed with the secretary Of state in Hartford. This total was augmented with. a report filed by the communist party here showing a total of 468 adherents, or oniy 132 less than the strength Of the independent organization.
 Republicans of the city are wor- ried over the 600 independent g.o.p. ballots cast in favor of the party headed by Professor Albert Levitt. But both parties were visibly wor- ried over the communist lineup be- cause of the fact that many demo- crats and republicans, listed in the foreign classes, were noted as being behind the communistic program of governmental admintetration.
 Naugatuck showed b5 commun- ists as approving the placing of the communistic ticket on the polling machines this year while the total for Ansonia was 33.

New York. September 21 - (UP) - The hopes of James J. Walker, resigned mayor of New York, to run for reelection in November on "vindication" plat form, collapsed today.
 Supreme Court Justice John E.. McGeehan rendered a decision blasting the plans of Walker, Tn which he was believed to have the support of Tammany Hall. and establishing his successor. Joseph V. Mckee in the mayors office until December l. 1883.
 McGeehan granted writ of manadamus prohibiting the board of elections from holding an cleo ton in November.
 At the same time he denied an application of the Tammany law committee for a writ to compel the board to hold the election. McGeehan's decision will be ap- pealed. The appeals must be set- tied by October 15. which Is the last day for the filing of petitions for the November general collection.
 The decision was far reaching It strengthened Mckee. It weak ened the Tammany cause if the hall persists in it's plan to support Walker. most political observers believed. They also said that the

Several gallons of liquor with IA cases of beer as a "chaser" were poured down q hungry mouth" to- day, the mouth of a drain pipe at police headquarters. 6. The beverages were handled like so much dynamite. They repre- sented the liquid loot taken from Q house on North Riverside street when a tenant made the most ex- pensive drink" in the local history of prohibition. In starting q still to heat up some hooch the tenant caused an explosion which started 0 fire which damaged two build ings, which called out the police which gave seven companies of fire apparatus a battle for two hours, which resulted in an arrest and which finally terminated in a fine and jail sentence for the thirsty occupant. All of which is just one of life's little problems.
 The liquor and beer were dumped down the drain pipe and the fumes of course, travelled throughout the police station and city hall. The weather being rather warm it was apparently difficult for some of the boys in the vicinity to concen- trate on their work.

 In his first appeal to Hoover. the Pennsylvania executive said that for two months "senseless red tape" and a Hot of questions of fn- terest only to social workers had delayed granting the loan which was "unquestionably" Pensylvania's right to ask and receive. Pinchot said every detail had been met as asked by the board and requested a conference Friday with Hoover.
 The president replied with rec ommendation that Pinchot read the law which Hoover interpreted as giving the reconstruction board sole authority in the determination of loans.
 "I have no authority or right therefore to direct the board to make specific loans or advances you ask," the presidents telegram read.
 Pinchot's reply today held MT Hoover responsible for the board, ask why red tape should be cut for California and not for Pennsyl- yania. and claimed the board was exercising a "senseless arbitrary embargo" against the 1,250,O0o tobless set by the governor as Penn- sylvania's unemployed total.
