the savings which will be made there
from by the continuance of the provi-
sions of the Economy Act. IS
am recommending the retention of
so much of Section 202 as precludes ad-
ministrative promotions, but do not
recommend the continuance OF that
portion of. said section, nor of Section
203, which for the current fiscal year
requires the written authorization or
approval of the President for the fill
ing of vacant positions. This is a de-
tail of administrative responsibility
which should be restored to the heads
of the departments and establishments
where 1t has uniformly rested in the
past. The estimates of appropriations
for 1894 provide only for the personnel
needed under the existing organiza-
tional set-up. II vacancies occur which
are not necessary to be filled am con-
f1dent that we can rely upon the heads
of the departments and establishments
to see that they are not filed. I feel
that we are weakening the responsible
ity which should devolve upon and be
intrusted in the heads of the depart
ments and establishments by requiring
the Chief Executive to authorize or
approve in writing the filling of any
vacancies which may occur in their
personnel.
The reductions in the estimates of
appropriations contained in this Budget
which are due to the recommendation
that certain provisions of the Economy
Act be. continued in force during 1894
amount to $97, 1898, 900. This Is exclu-
sive Of the estimates of appropriations
for the Legislative branch Of the Gov
ernmert which do not. Of course re-
feet the savings which would result
from the continuance in 1884 of these
provisions of the Economy Act. The
Budget and Accounting Act of 1921
provides that the estimates for the Leg
islative branch Of the Government shall
be presented to the Congress without
Executive revision. II these provisions
Of the Economy Act are continued in
effect during 1884 they would altomat-
mates Of appropriations for the Legis-
lative establishment Of approximately
81, 5000.
Motor Vehicles.
The provisions which have appeared
annually in the separate appropriat ton
acts relating to-the purchase, use, and
general maintenance of passenger-car-
rying automobiles have been CONSOLE
dated and appear as Section OF the
Post Office Department chapter of this
Budget, in language which makes the
provision applicable to the appropri-
atiors for all Of the Executive depart
ments and independent establishments
for the fiscal year 1894. The adoption
of general provision will assure uni
formity and avoid the necessity of car
rying individual restrictions Of this ma
tlre in each Of the appropriation acts.

PUBLIC WORKS.

Speaking generally of public works,
this program is well in advance of stlie
couptry's immediate need by virtue of
the vast appropriations made for this
purpose as means of increasing en-
ployment. The authorization OF large
programs of self Liquidation works to
be financed by the Reconstruction FL
nance Corporation provides aid to EN-
ployment upon an even larger scale
without burden upon the taxpayers.
For this reason the estimates for pub
lie works generally for 1884 show a
marked reduction below the appropri-
ations for 1893.
Federal Aid Highway System. ~
The authorization for appropriations
for the Federal aid highway system ex-
pires with the current fiscal year, 1888,
and the unappropriated balance of the
authorizations amounts to $51, ,560, 900.
This Budget contains an estimate of
appropriation of sac, ,000, 900 of this bal
ance, this being the amount. which will
be required for expenditure in 1884 in
the absence Of any further legislative
authorization for appropriation. ear
nestly recommend to the Congress that
there be no further grant of legislative
authority for appropriation for Federal
aid highways until the financial condi-
ton Of the Treasury justifies such ac-
ton. The annual program of Federal
aid for the highway system was in
creased from SIS 1000, 600 to $125, ,000, 900
beginning with the fiscal year 1881, and
has been materially further advanced
within the last two years by the appro-
priation of 100000 made in the
Emergency Construction Appropriation
Act Of December 20, 1880, and the ap-
preparation Of $120, 900, 900 contained in
the Emergency Relief and Construction
Act of July 81, 1882. am not unmind-
full that these emergency appropria-
tions amounting to $500, 900 900, rep
resent advances only and that under
the provisions of the acts making them
the entire amount, less the S15, ,000, 900,
returnable to the United States from
the authorization for 1888, is eventually
to be reimbursed to the United States
by deductions from the apportionments
which may be made to the States under
any future authorizations that may be
granted for carrying out the Federal
Highway Act. do not, however, view
this as commitment which of itself
necessitates further authorization for
Federal appropriations until such time
as the financial condition Of the Treas
ury justifies such action.

EXPENDITURES AND
RECEIPTS.

It will be seen that, in spite Of the
large reduction in expenditures, the
revenues under existing laws are ex-
pected to fall short Of providing sufh-
cient money to avoid a further increase
in the public debt in the fiscal year
1884 by about $307, 100000.
To meet this situation recon-
mended-
(a) That the Federal tax on gaso-
line, which Is effective only until June
80, 1888, be continued until June 80,
1884, producing about $l37, 100000 ad-
ditional revenue in the fiscal year 1884,
and
fb) That the manufacturers excise
taxes now imposed on certain articles
be extended and in part replaced by
general uniform tax Excluding food.
I have been advised that the annual
yield of such a general tax, at az
per cent rate, would be approximately
1855, 900, 900.
The additional s4s2, ZOO, 600 of reve-
nue. produced in this way will not only
make possible the replacements re-
ferred to above, but will also avoid a
further increase in the public debt dur
ing the fiscal year 1884. The details
of these recommendations will be pre-
sented by the Secretary of the Treas
ury.
Continuance of Economy Provisions.
In arriving at the amounts of the es-
Inmates Of appropriations contained In
this Budget for the Executive branch
of the Government. have predicated
my action on continuance during the
fiscal year 1884 Of certain sections or
parts of sections Of the so-called Econ
omy Act of Jone 80, 1882, which, by
the terms of that act, are now limited
in their application to the fiscal year
1888. The recommendation for the
continuance of these sections Of the
Economy Act will be found in the gen.
eral provisions which have been incor-
porated in the chapter Of this Budget
pertaining to the Post Ofiice Depart
ment. These provisions. have been In
serted in that chapter for the reason
that it has been the general policy Of
Congress to include in the consolidated
act making appropriations for the
Treasury and Post ONCE Departments
general provisions which are to have
application to all departments and es-
adjustments
The provisions Of Section 10 Of the
Economy Act, which deal with the i'm
pounding of funds unexpended by rea-
son of the operation of the provisions
of Title of that act are not, of course,
recommended for continuance as the
savings which will result from the con-
tinuance during 1884 of the provisions
of this title have been taken into con-
sideration In framing the estimates OF
appropriations for 1894. including the
permanent appropriation estimates
with regard to the permanent specific

Increased BY Relief Act.

These activities under the building
program were increased to q marked
degree by the appropriation Of $780,
0o0, 900 for public buildings contained
In the Emergency Relief and Construc-
ton Act of 1882, which was approved
on July 81, 1882. This act stipulated
that the projects undertaken under the
emergency appropriation should be, Sc
lected from those to which funds au-
thorized under the regular public build
ing program had been aflscated. After
comprehensive survey of applicable
conditions about 410 projects have been
selected and plans have been laid to
proceed with the work to the end that
practically all of the funds appropriated
will be obligated in the fiscal years
1888 and 1884.
No provision is made for additional
projects in the Budget now transmitted,
other than estimates aggregating $2,-
sos, 900 for miscellaneous projects not
coming within the purview of the regu-
lar building program, as / do not deem
further building at this time in the
public interest.

VETERANS ADMINISTRA-
TION.

The appropriations recommended for
the Veterans Administration for 1884
amount to 1891 ,078, 900, after deduct
ing the savings to be accomplished by
the legislation recommended above.
The appropriations for 1888 total
81, ,02O, AGA, 900. Without the savings
now recommended above the appropri-
ations for 1884 would exceed $1,060,-
900, 900. About S21 ,000, GOO Of each of
these amounts represents the cost Of
the civil service retirement and disabil-
ity fund which Is administered by the
Veterans Administration. Deducting
this amount gives a cost for care of
veterans for 1884 Of $932, ,956, 900 as
against $999, ,464, 900 for 1888. This
would indicate a decrease of about
$66, SOC, 900, but the Veterans Admins
tration will require an additional
amount of about Sic, ,25o, 900 for mill
tary and naval insurance during the
current fiscal year, so that the real de-
crease in cost for 1894 under 1888 Is
about $82, 2,750,000.
The principal items Of decrease are
the $l27, 900, 900 to be accomplished by
the legislation mentioned above, and
decreases in construction and in gen.
eral administration. These decreases are
partially Offset by increases In military
and naval insurance, and IN military
and naval compensation.
Retirement Funds.
The actuarial revaluation of the
Civil Service Retirement and Disability
Fund so as to cover the changes made
by the act of May %, 1880, has not
been completed. Pending the compile
ton of this revaluation the estimates
for the financing of the Government IS
liability to the fund Is presented in
the same amount as has been appro-
priated for each of the last two years,
namely, $2o,850 900.
with regard to the Foreign Service
Retirement and Disability Fund the ac-
tuarial valuation shows that Federal
contribution of S427, 900 will be required
for the fiscal year 1884 to maintain the
solvency OF the fund The Govern
ment's liability to the fund was In
creased by the act approved February
%, 1881, but there has been no change
in the existing statutory authorization
that appropriations to meet the Gov
ernment's liability should at no time
exceed the total Of the contributions
Of the Foreign Service officers and ac-
cumulated interest thereon. Under ex-
isting law there is no authorization for
an appropriation for 1884 in excess Of
1892 ZOO, SO that this Budget contains
an estimate in that amount only.

Her bert is suspected of the crime. He is a weakling and a drunkard, subject to the conniving power of his wife, Laura.
 Assigned to Case Lieut.. Va1cour of the police is assigned to the case. Several hours after the funeral of the older Mrs Endicott, Herbert is found stran- gled to death. Phillip is suspected But the family doctor brings Her bert to life again, using a1renalin. As Herbert is about to tell who killed" him, he is shot dead An other bullet wounds Tom Holland CT, Laura's lover, who had been in the room.
 The outcome is thrilling and sur- prising.

Roar of the Dragon Will Headline Program to
 Be Shown Sunday

Richard Dix, Edward Everett Horton, zasu Pitts and Gwili An dre are included in the cast of Road of the Dragon which will feature the program to be present. ed Sunday at the Capitol theatre.

 His boat, disabled by Chinese bandits, Dix and his varied group of passengers take refuge in 9 small interior village where they convert a former Mandarin's pal ace into a Stockade.
 Falls in Love
 Here, under fire from the ban dits and threatened by plague, Dix meets and falls in love with a beautiful Russian woman of mys- tery enacted by Miss Andre. Her calm courage, her willingness to risk the meanest privation to re- main with him, rejuvenate Dix and he changes from a selfish sluggard to a daring leader of the beleag- ured refugees.
 The romance has as a stirring background the teeming life of a Chinese village, torn by evil strife and ruthless bandit raids.
 Picture of Chaotic Conditions
 A graphic picture is presented Of the chaotic conditions of the Orient today.
 Miss Andre is a young Danish actress. Tall, slender, a striking blonde beauty, Miss Andre is a perfect foil for Dix.

WEALTH FITTED
 AGAINST LOVE
Rich Man $ Folly with Bancroft, at Coli
 scum Sunday

What good is money after all, unless it brings happiness?
 For what purpose the accumula- tion of wealth by economies and whip-lashed will to work, if friendships are lost and love is stifled and repelled?
 Why should ambition rid e irough-shod and paint golden cas- ties on a distant horizon, when only romance and love will ever fill such domiciles with thoughtful friends and loving children?
 Questions Are Answered
 In the picture drama Rich Mans Folly which will be shown at the Coliseum Sunday, these per- tinent questions are the theme of a story of interest. George Ban croft has the stellar role of Brook Trumbull,' an ambitious, money grabbing ship-builder who stiles all his gentler qualities for money and a mad ambition.
 Wealth Piles Up
 Success follows success. Wealth piles up But the tide turns. Friends desert and his family is estranged. Money dwindles and his new wife leaves. He faces failure. Then at last the folly of it all comes to him. He reaches out to his daughter, whom he never loved and always opposed, groping, longing for the love and happiness he had always spurned but which he now realizes is the only thing that makes life worth while.
 The supporting cast includes: Francis Dee, Robert Ames, Jul iette Compton, David Durand Dor othy Peterson, Harry Allen, Gilbert Emery, Guy Oliver, Dawn OsDay, George McFarlene and William Arnold.
