Harding’s admission of the Vice-president, as president of the Senate, to a seat’in the cabinet. The establishment of a budget system, however, is a strong force in giving life and urgency to the proposal. For the best results, con- gress, in making appropriations con- formably to the budget estimates, should be able to know the why of each estimate. The preserice of the head of cach department affected would facilitate the operation and aid in preserving the integrity of the budget as against the raids of district interests. The current issue of the Budget, a monthly magazine ‘published by the National Budget committee, headed by John T. Pratt of New York, gives up much of its space to this matter and, performs a public service in printing the favorable report of the Pendleton committce of 1881. That re- port said the last word on the con- stitutionality of the proposal. It held that as Jong as cabinet members are not allowed a vote, their admis- sion to seats in congress would no mote make them. members of ‘coi- gress, contrary to .the constitution, than to answer questions at long range as at present makes them members.
