PROGRAM SLICED
$6,OOO,OOO Request for
1914 Cut to $4,SOO,OOO
By House Committee
ny EDWARD v, ROBERTS


UNITED Press Stan Correspondent
Washington, April 6--(UP)-The
house appropriations committee, APP
proving q O,72o, 400 appropriation
70 finance the State, Justice and
Commerce department for the fiscal
year 1914, today cut rs per cent from
tho Safe Departments request for
funds for Its good neighbor program.
Tho department requested $6,o00,-
900 TO promote cooperation with
South and Central American repub-
lies for the year beginning July /,
compared with 81 ,68S, 600 appropriate
cd for the current year. The COM
mittee approved only S4,5OO,000 for
1914.
"The committee" It's report said,
was motivated not by lack Of sym
pathy for the program, but by reali-
zAtion OF the need for retrenchment
In strictly nonwar expenditures"
II was the largesgt reduction in
budget estimates for the three de-
partments. The total approprla ton,
although $i7,805, 1856 less than tho
budget bureau had estimated for
1914. The committee said, however,
that deficiency appropriations, es-
peclally for the state department.
probably would have to be made, but
further economies now might impair
direct services 10 the war effort.
The breakdown Of the appropria-
ton for the three departments:
State Department $50, 358. 100,
compared with q budget estimate OF
136, 7O3, 100 and q 1913 appropriation
Of $26,866, 4O3.
Justice Experimentation, 657 800.
compared with q budget estimate Of
9lO5, 7O7, 400 and q l043 appropriation
OF $i0i ,504 800.
Commerce OBSERVATION-DISCLOSURES
600, compared with budget esti-
mate of s54,507, 900 and 1913 appro-
priation Of 500, 8l3,550.
Largest cut under the appropria-
ton for 1913 was In the Civil Aero
nautics administration, which will
get $ii ,027,77 less next year than
this. The proposed appropriation,
however, was only 100000 under the
request.
The biggest increase for 1914 over
l943 was the appropriation for the
Federal Bureau OF Investigation.
The committee approved $42.768, 900
for the FBI-$8OO.O00 under budget
estimates but 1882 900 more than
the appropriation for fiscal 1913.
The committee said the FsBI fund
was allowed "in recognition OF the
tremendous added burden thrown on
the bureau as n result OF the war"

Root crops should receive special
consideration. on two counts. for
planting In Victory Gardens.
They yield large quantities Of food
for the ground space they occupy.
and SURPRISES from late crops can
be stored for next winters meals.
For instance. q foot or row will
produce three or four beets-the
number In the average bunch bought
at the market. A 50-fOot row Of
beets. preferably Of the Crosby or
Detroit Dark Red varieties. Is rec
commended for small Victory Car
dens. Eight or ten seed 10 foot OF
row Is sufficient. and when the
plants are around four inCSles high,
thin them TO about three inches
apart. The thinned plants. by the
way, viii make good green's for tn
BILE use. A late crop Of beets may be
planted about the end OF August.
Those left In the garden when the
season Is over may be stored for
winter use.
