Perplexity comes from the fact that the Italians have always felt that Austria eventually must drift into Germany or into the new Slav group of the Danubian confederation. Ital- ian policy is inimical to the second policy because this country is un- willing to see the Slavs strengthened because it hopes to play a strong part among the central European states and because the Italians de- sire the creation of north and south arteries beneficial to the port of Trieste rather than the establish- ment of the east and west lines plan- ned by France.

Director Hill of the bureau and officials of the Treasury claim the printers are not needed, and cannot be taken back without exceeding the present de- creased appropriation for the bureau, which in itself would violate the law. Charges that the hand press method, advocated by the plate printers in their claim to be reinstated, is “en- tirely out of date,” were made by Mr. Barnes of the budget bureau at a hearing of the House committee in April, on a bill introduced by Repre- sentative Madden, providing that the Secretary of the Treasury should be given full freedom in control of the bureau, whether to use hand presses or power presses. serted they believed there was no truth in the reports.

Citing the 1919 law which provided that no plate printers must be dis- missed, Mr. Barnes said, “Whatever necessity there may at one time have been for such regulations, we believe that the necessity is wholly past. We believe that tnis whole matter could be safely left to the discretion of the director.” Summing up the government's pro. posal, Mr. Barnes said, “Our recom- { mendation is, that all legislative re- strictions or regulations as to the mechanical operations of this bureau should be annulled and that the ‘whole matter be left to the discretion and control of the Secretary of the Treasury. If this is done, we believe there will be an immediate saving to the bureau of at least $750,000 an nually, that the quality of the work will not be deteriorated thereby, that there will be no additional risks of counterfeiting, and that in general the condition of the bureau will be much improved.” Chairman Edgar R.

The House today passed the bill, fathered by Representative Williams trict of Columbia. This legislation was passed some time ago, the name { of the contern then being the Masonic Mutual Rellef Association, and it was the first measure vetoed by President Harding. The purpose of the bill is to allow this assoclation, whose membership is limited to master Masons, to provide and maintain a fund for the benefit of members, members' families, wid- ows and orphans. ¥ The association was organized as the Masonic Mutual Rellef Associa-: tion in 1866 and incorporated by act of Congreas three years later. It was organized by prominent Masons than fifty years, the association has received the indorsement of the Grand Lodge of the District each year. In 1903 the association went on the legal reserve basis and since that time its growth has been steady. losed the year 1921 with $101,200,000 of insurance in force, and assets of ap- l‘);'llv_‘xlmlnco tely $6,000,000, and surpius of It cl Reasoas for Veto. President Harding vetoed the bill upon four grounds—first, that the as- soclation was using the name of the Masonic order without ité sanction; second, that it is a fraternal soclety, but that the bill authorized it to carry a reserve fund like any old-line insurance company; third, that the bill stipulated a classification that exempted the association from taxa- tion, and, fourth, that the bill should rovide that the association should e subject to the supervision of the insurance department of the various states. Chairman Focht assured the House that the bill as it now stands meets every objection that the President expressed in his veto of January 20 The association is anted no specia) privileges, but must comply with the laws of the different states regulating sinilar concerns.
