after appropriations were slashed
from the 50-cent rate indicated by
figures previously approved BY
County Commissioners. County
Court attaches threaten a legal
fight against reduction Of their
salary appropriations. In any
event, both the city and county

NEW DEALERS
AIM CONCERTED
ECONOMY DRIVE
Program Seen as Step
Toward Early Balancing
of Budget.
BY RICHARD /. GRIDLEY
United Press financial Writer

WASHINGTON. Sept. New
Deal leaders today mapped a drastic
government economy program seen
here as a step toward early bal
ancing OF the budget
Just what the Administration
hopes to accomplish in the way of
economy during the next 10 months
Of the fiscal year will be officially
revealed next week in a special bud
get summary now being prepared.
Unofficial estimates are that be-
tween one and two billion dollars
will be shaved of present expendi-
ture estimates of S8520,413,609 for
the fiscal year began last July l.
Also appearing to bring govern
ment expenditures and receipts
closer were indications that tax
revenue is running above the rate
estimated earlier to net the Treas
ury 1891 ,904, 500 for the fiscal year.

Expenses Under Estimate

Government expenditures so far
have been below the estimated
S600O00000 a month. 1t appears
possible that expenses can be held
down to less than $1,000 ,OOO,0 OO-ap-
proximately 2OO,O0OOOO below es-
timates-for the fiscal year
If these expectations are realized
and further economics can be eff
fected. the deficit may be less than
S3,000,00O 900, compared with pres
ent estimate of S4,529,0O0,O 900.
President Roosevelt has attributed

Pay Roll Cut Aimed

With present recovery agencies
now largely an administration mat
ter, a pairing of government pay rolls
is contemplated. Further economies
along with business Improvement are
counted upon to reduce the gap be-
tween expenditure and income.
Several recent developments have
indicated a trend toward economy.
Many new deal leaders now stress
economy, whereas they recently
claimed great benefits from the
heavy government spending pro-
gram.
Fiscal leaders would not comment
on the statement of one political
writer, claiming to be a close friend
of the President, that Mr.. Roosevelt
plans to balance the budget by the
1889 fiscal year. Indicating Admin
iStratiOn efforts in that direction,
however. was the placing of recovery
agencies expenditures under direc-
ton of the budget bureau this week
by President Roosevelt.
Secretary of the Treasury Henry
Morgenthau Jr. is reported to favor
a balanced budget next year. The
more YOU look at the governments
financial position the better it looks, y
he said.

This compares with 17.475 car

directors of the indianapolis
II Utilities District. making nnal
preparations to take over the Gu
zens Gas Co. next week, met win
Mayor John w. Kern and, after
due elaboration, announced that
the project would be named the
Citizens Gas and Coke Utility.
Just why the word coke was in
serted in the tile has aroused COM
ment. particularly among those
conversant with the history OF the
Citizens firm and the long negotla-
lions preceding the acquisition
about to take place by the city.
The Citizens Gas Co. has always
manufactured coke as a by-product
to its production of gas But coke,
il is pointed out, never has been
and is not now considered a puollc
utility. 1t is no more utility than
wood or charcoal. II is a by-prod-
uct.
why the city should include
coke IN its designation OF a munlcl-
pal utility Is puzziing to some oD-
servers, unless. as they point out,
it is an indication that the city IN
tends TO perpetuate the use OF
manufactured gas and coke and
fCrsake its announced intention OF

use.

A WOn1anS Viewpoint
by MRS. WALTER FERGUSON

DARENTs are great ones for
= kidding themselves. Our chief
delusion nowadays lies in the COM
Portable theory that we can bring up
good children by proxy.
Since the development Of the pub
lie school system. We have delegated
large part Of parental authority
to the teachers. while in many
afiluent homes nurses. housekeepers
and maids are asked to ASSUME 1t.
We are rigid in our determination
for all those whom we EMPLOY to
furnish character references. But
could you or I show flrst-claSs char
acter references for parenthood?
Those who teach our cherubs,
especially Il they are women, are
asked to conduct themselves in the
manner Of philosophers and saints.
We expect them to have excellent
morals. good manners, intelligence
and amiability. Yet could we
qualify for motherhood if these were
required Of US? You know the
answer.
For the gay. emancipated, cock
tail-drinking ladies Of the moment
many Of whom show no self
restraint whatever, who possess no
social conscience and display very
little consideration for husband
neighbor. community or child, are
nearly always the women who de-
mand all the virtues from those who
work for them. They will have moth
ing less than perfection-self-c con-
troll, dignity, patience and resource
fulness. In return for these quail
tiles. they often permit their chill
dren to browbeat and bully the SER
wants who are in no position to
retaliate.
It is lamentable, but true, that

while the upper classes divorce and
remarry with immoderste zest, de-
stroying the very foundations of
homes which should stand for per-
manence. they believe they can pro-
dace children who will turn out
models Of stability. Fathers will
break all business ethics to get rich
quick, but are tragically dis
appointed when their sons display
the same traits to criminal proper
tions.
Mothers will spend a lifetime
spreading gossip, cheating small
tradespeople and licking the boots
of those who have more money. and
then cry aloud to heaven because
their children are no good. In short,
our theory seems 10 be: Everybody
except the parent must set the child
a good example.

Clark Griffith is very per-
siStent that something be done

ball park is to figure in the

the practice of last year where

both Ahearn and Turner that
such a policy must prevail.
