Taxation in the United States now takes 14.: cents of every American's dollar, or to put it in terms employed by the national budget committee, every American engaged in a gainful occu- pation works 50 days in the year for the support of the government. For every 12 persons so employed, one person is employed by govern-| ment, federal, state, county and) trial conference board—employed or paid, for the total includes pensions —ts 3,400,000, and they receive from government, in round figures $4,000,000,000 a year. This repre- sents a tax of $34 a year on every man, woman and cht! in the coun- try. Eliminating all but workers, | the tax on that class—for the single | Purpose of meeting government's pay roll—rises to $91 for each person gainfully employed.

It is no longer a political institution, discharging duties strictly political, but has gone into business, into industry and into the control and regulation of affairs that do not con- cern it. That is why it costs so much that it threatens ultimately to tyranny that never yet in the hi tery of government has been fou! BUDGET IS A SUCCESS. Enforcing business methods in the affairs of the government means a Saving of millions to the taxpayers. Naturally those called upon to dis- burse millions grow a bit careless, especially if they know there is plenty more where that came from, and it is not their money, anyhow. Old methods, cluttering red tape, and s'oth, have too long marked the administration of government bureaus, The budget system recently adopt- ed by the government and now being rigidly enforced, to the d'scomfort of many clerks who formerly had PATEE.

Now the army takes advantage of trade discounts on its bills for supplies, thereby saving some $200,000 during the last | 12 months. A smal! sum, to be sure, when compared with the hundreds of millions the government expends, but it is a gratifying saving, more because it shows business methods in vogue than because of the amount saved. The treasury depart ment has also been taking its trade chines and was able to save $40,000 by decreasing its force. Through the operations of the budget system the Panama canal was operated at ®@ saving of $150,000. { ‘These are only a few of the sav-| ings made by installing a real busi- ness system in the governmental of. fices. A thousand and more little leaks were stopped up, thus dimin- ishing the waste that had grown to be a food. if By eliminating waste, co-ordinat- ing departments, abolishing sine. cures and getting a dollar's worth for each 100 cents expended, the bureau of the budget saved $50,- 000,000 last year, and instead of decreasing governmental effictency, actually increased it. In other jrords, the taxpayers got more for ess. The budget system ts with us to It will render better work as the years give it greater experience.
