some sense of guilt. Practically every
day at least one of Uncle Sans neph-

envelope addressed to the United
States Treasury The envelope may
contain anything from postage

there is an anonymous letter describ-

The variations in the Conscience
Fund from year to year are dizzying.
There seems to be no specific pattern
to them, but in scanning the figures it
would seem that wars and their after
math bring a great deal of remorse.
1t may also be significant that the year

to the largest amount of conscience
trouble. In 1883, Uncle Sans gravy
was enriched by $283, 47316.
Moneys deposited in the Con-
science Fund have no specific status
or use. AS described to me by Treas
ury official, ANY amounts so received
are deposited in the Treasury for the
Conscience Fund and thus become
part of the general fund of the Treas
ury from which expenses of the Gov
eminent are paid pursuant to apprO-
priations made by Congress"
One woman exercised the femi-
nine privilege of changing her mind
and tried to recall 500. She found
that once money is deposited in the
Treasury, nothing less than an act of
Congress can get it out That's right.

you pay the penalty of troubled con-
science to your uncle in Washington.
