BY ]. A. O'LEARY,


Launching the fight on the pending
reorganization bill today, Senator
Byrd. Democrat, of Virginia told the
Senate he Is for revamping of the
Government set-up, but based on the
following three principles:
Il. want Congress to 60 clearly on
record that economy Is one of main
objectives.
2. That no greater power will be
conferred on the executive branch than
is necessary to bring about a busi-
nesslike reorganization.
3. To preserve the independence
OF the General Accounting Office and
OF other independent agencies like
the Interstate Commerce Commits
sion"
The Virginian made it clear he does
not believe the pending bill achieves
that three-point goal.
Outlook for 1899 Worse.
Charging the administration with
failure to make any headway toward
balancing the budget, he compared the
1888 outlay of s3,5o0.OO0O00 with a
present budget of nearly $4,000. 900 900.
Mr.. Byrd predicted the Government
deficit will be sl,750,000,000 by July /.
And for 1889 the outlook is even
worse, because the recession will affect
revenue collections" he added.
The best way to economize." he
continued, lis to eliminate extrav-
agance and overlapping It is aston
ishing to hear the President say that
only s30,000,O00 can be saved by
reorganization"
After declaring that so new govern
ment agencies have been set up in the
last four years and that a "bloated
bureaucracy" has been built up, the
Virginian said:
Il predict if this bill is passed in
its present form, not only will there
not be a dollar Of savings, but that
the cost of Government will be in
creased many millions"

In explanation, he explained it

and creates a staff Of six administra-
tive assistants for the President.
Senator Byrd said he is not afraid
the President would abolish any of the
functions of the Government, but he
insisted it is too great a power to vest
in President to modify in whole or in
part the functions of different agencies
as is proposed by the measure which
has been hanging fire for a year.
He cannot abolish an entire execu-
tive department, that is, one headed
by cabinet officer said Senator
Byrd, but he could transfer 90 per
cent of its activities to other depart
ments."
The Senator said he would not OBJ
ject if the bill is amended to require
congressional approval of reorganiza-
ton orders before they take effect. As
it stands, the orders take effect 60
days after being submitted to Congress
unless Congress can have a law en-
acted within that time to disapprove
an order. Such a bill would have to
be signed by President with power
to veto it. A two-thirds vote then
would be required to override.
In urging retention of the General
Accounting Office headed by a con-
troller general Senator Byrd said the
General Accounting Act of 1921 was
supported at that time by Vice Presi-
dent Garner, Senate Majority Leader
Barkley and Senator Byrnes, Demo-
crat, of South Carolina, in charge of
the pending bill. All three were men,

Smooth Rhythm
In Dance Music
Seen Returning @

Speed is the keynote of current
demand in stage dancing, but smooth
flowing rhythm is returning to popu-
lar favor in the ballroom, according
to Dancing Master Phil Hayden.
Students in his tap classes want
an opportunity to develop fast, flashy
performance, Mr.. Hayden reports.
However, in the ballroom department
the trend is away from the "jitter-
bug" style of the shag, big apple,
ETC., to more sedate forms of the
dance. Popularity of the utterly SIM
pie Lambeth walk and the new palais
glide are cited as evidence of this
shift in dance favor from the more
strenuous forms.
Tango and Spanish rhythms will,
OF course, never wane," Mr.. Hayden
said, in pointing out the return to
smooth, graceful movements in the
ballroom field.
Out of the modern German work
introduced by Mary Wigman several
years back has developed new stage
technique termed commercial Ger
man"
There is no doubt that this tech
nique Is being injected in every type
Of stage dancing, including even the
ballet. and I feel sure this will enter
ballroom dancing before long" stated
Mr.. Hayden. ....
