WASHINGTON. - For the first
time In American history one seq
sion Of congress has authorized fed
eral expenditures In excess Of 500
600, 00O, 900.
The nation was astonished and in
dignant in 1918 when two sessions Of
congress appropriated 81, 0O0, 600, 900.
II was our first ''billion dollar con-
gress."
In 1884, we had our first $40. 0OO.-
000, 900 session.
Six years later, between January
and August IS, 1910. the third
session Of the Seventy-sixth congress
authorized spending to the extent Of
$21, 4S9, 678, 900.
How much 10 s21. 600, 100000. It
would buy outright the entire rail-
road system Of the United States
every mile Of track. every bridge,
terminal and yard, every piece Of
rolling stock and locomotive equip
ment, every mile Of telephone and
telegraph equipment. plus every sta
ton and siding.
The official reports Of the Inter-
state Commerce commission place
the current value of American rail-
roads at roundly $40, 000, 900, 900. The
nation built up this railroad system
over a period Of us years.
II Is difficult for the mind to grasp
such spending. But we may re-
duce the authorizations Of the pres
ent session to familiar terms. Let
US assume that the whole amount
authorized since January had been
devoted to building houses at $1,000
each. That would be a substantial
house better than the average
American home today. Federal ap-
preparations for these eight months
would build 100000 such houses. or
one for every fourth family in the
United States.
Translated into bushels of wheat
at current market prices. the ex-
penditures approved for the program
since January this year tell q more
impressive story.
Assuming farm price of 10 cents
q bushel and an average yield Of 30
bushels per acre. we arrive at a
gross production of $21 per acre.
This means that It will take q bill
lion acres Of wheat to pay for the
federal spending authorized in eight
Notwithstanding the government
took every ounce of the national
farm production.
But, Of course, we could not raise
a billion acres Of anything in 4 sin
gle year. The combined harvested
area Of all American farms and all
crops Is only 800, 900, 900 acres. This
means It would take the full crop of
three successive harvests. plus one
third Of the fourth harvest. to pay
the federal spending bill as APP
proved in the year 1910 to date.
Stated another way. every Ameri-
can farm would have to produce its
normal crop and turn everything
over to the government for more
than three years to pay for this first
so. ZOO. 900. 900 congress.
This would mean nothing left on
the farms for feed. seed. or family
food supplies. II would leave moth
ing for routine operating expenses

No Time For Rhyme

The London Poetry Society has adjourned for the
duration of the It's members state there is little
poetry being written this to inspire none
We recall some famous that came out of the
first World War that lived to be repeated over again.
However, the day of a daring adventure, as a
crusade, is dead. The only fitting sort of poetry
would be of such a bitter angry and cynical nature
that it would be mostly protest. The pens of the
poets not forever stlled but they work up
much and glamour this war. Poetry in
London is postponed until there be heard the song
of Birds the whispering of leaves the murmurngs of
lovers. Those who appreciate poetry can understand

Reckless Driver Sent To
House Of Correction

A driving record which started
two years ago with crash in which
several persons were injured and
three cars were damaged helped
Harry Cosner, a young Chesapeake
City resident, get an aggregate OF
10 months on two new charges pre-
ferred against him by Town Officer
Masemore, of that town.
Trial Magistrate G. Reynolds Ash
sentenced Cosner to IS months in
the Maryland House of Correction on
a charge of driving while intoxi-
Gated and 80 days in the county jail
for reckless driving.
This was the second time with
in six months that the defendant had
been arrested for driving a car
while intoxicated.
About two years ago he was in
an accident in which several per-
sons were injured and three cars
badly damaged.
