Notwithstanding the pronounced
upswing in business conditions,
the Federal Government currently
is spending nearly twice as much
as in the severest depression
period.
Analysis of Treasury figures re-
veals today that In the face OF
marked rises in industrial produc-
ton, employment and national in
come, governmental OUTLAWS dur
ing the 1896, 1897 and 1898 fiscal
years will reach the huge total
of 25,055, TBS, 005.
This is an amount equal to 70
per cent of the present $35, OO0.-
100000 public debt and approx
'mately 40 per cent Of last years
national income.
In recent budget statements,
President Roosevelt, to some eX-
tent. has minimized the gains
made in employment, and warned
industry that its slow absorption
of idle workers necesSitates con-
tinuation of high Federal disburse-
ments for relief.
More Work, Longer Hours
The Federal Reserve Board, in
its February bulletin, on the other
hand takes a more encouraging
view. 1t says:
"The substantial growth in
economic activity In 1886 was
accompanied by . general rise
in the number Of employed and
also in the average number Of
hours worked per week.
"The most marked increases
In employment were at factories
and on privately financed con-
struCtiOn projects, but increases
In many other lines were COnSid'
cradle.
Employment by the public
utilities, which at the beginning
Of 1886 was little above the de-
preston low, increased subStan-
tally during the year, and en-
plOyment on railroads showed a
more marked increase than in
any other year Of the recovery
period. The number Of work
ers In trade and service indus.
tries increased more In 1886
than In any other year since
1889"

WILHELM THE PIoUs


Former Kaiser Wilhelm of Germany
is said to have become deeply religious of
late. In his exile at Doom. Holland, he
lives most austere life. with devotional
exercises occupying much of his daily
routine.
According to reports, he reads the
Bible the first thing in the morning and
has religious services at 8. The afternoon
is largely devoted to the reading OF reli-
gious books, while the evening is marked
by season of prayer
He attends services at local church
with unfaiIing regularity. an odd feature
of which is that he writes many Of the ser
mons which the pastor afterward breaches
to him.
All this is in striking contrast with
the characteristics which the world saw in
the rather arrogant war lord of a few years
ago, although Wilhelm always protested
to be on friendly terms with the Deity. An.
American admiral once got in bad by
satirizing the then Kaiser in poem called
Die ind Colt, in which Wilhelm was rep
resented as claiming a partnership in
which he gave the Almighty second place.
Anyway, the exiIed Kaiser IS a good
boy now, and at the age OF 7s is not likely

world.
