Congress Is Drawing
Purse Strings Tight;
Vast Amounts Expended

Continued from Page One)
ton, not cash on hand, under
stand) is exclusive of the vast
amounts being expended by gov
eminent corporations.
Emphasizing the fact that up to
now Congress has almost without
a whimper appropriated everything
that the Army, Navy and other war
agencies have asked for, Senator
Byrd said. 1T seems to me the
time has come when closer crutiny
should be given the colossal appro-
priations now being made"
Add all this up and you begin
to get the picture of things to
come. Not yet has the United States
been able to spend hundred bill
lion dollars a year for war pur-
poses, yet appropriations and con-
tract authorizations now enacted
give us $228,0O0, 100000 to play with
next year.
In the closing days Of the Con-
gressional session, there was plenty
of evidence of rebellion against
blanket appropriations. Army n 1
Navy requests for funds did so
unscathed-but with some reluc-
lance. Some other war agencies
didn't do SO we'll.
It's pretty freely predicted that
once the boys get back to explain
ing billions to the constituents, it
will be a different story and that
from autumn on the Army, Navy
and other agencies will have to
spend what they have already, and
spend it well, before they get more.
