Embassy that the Queen of England

King and Queen here last month.

believed, is spaciousness. 1t is en-

and in the unusual proportion of
parks. Power predominates in the
New York scene, in his opinion.

Unbalanced Budqet
On Folks Back Home
Says Communities Judge
Congressmen by Money
They Can Get.

CHAUTAUQUA, N. Y, July g.
United States Senator Burton K.
Wheeler. Democrat. of Montana, to-
day blamed the inconsistent de-
mands of "the folks back home" for
congressional delay in balancing the
national budget
The budget will be balanced"
Senator Wheeler told an audience in
the Chautauqua amphitheater,
when communities cease judging
their Congressman by the amount
of money they can get out of the
Treasury.
"One minute Congress gets res
olution from a Chamber of Com
merce or other civic body demand
ing that the budget be balanced, the
next minute another resolution
from the same place asking for a
new school or some other project" "
Discussing the current controversy
over neutrality legislation, Senator
Wheeler asserted:
Whether we're drawn into the
next war doesn't depend on legisla-
ton; it depends on the intelligence
Of the American people, and whether
or not they will be led sstray by
propaganda and intolerance, as they
were in 1917"
For this own part, the Montana
Senator insisted that las long as I
am in the Senate, shall never vote
to send another man across the
water to fight on foreign soil. We
have no business NEEDING in the in
ternal affairs of other countries"
He warned that Americans must
be ready to make sacrifices to pre-
serve democracy, adding:
Intolerance is the worst enemy
of democracy. The time has come
to stop calling names and to get to-
gether for the benefit, not of our
selves but of D0sterity
