ORE THAN MILLION | SAVEDIN PRINTING ncle Sam’s Bills Past Year i Show Economy, Budget v ' ' Director Says. nele Sam’s printing bill has been source of saving to the administra- n of the government during the st year, it was revealed today by rector Lord of the bureau of the dget, who estimated that this bill 11 be about a million and a quarter llars less than that for the pre- L vJous yvear, 1922. ! mSavings have been effected in all ‘bganches of the government's print- 1ilg, 1t was said by Gen. Lord, and in sorts of printing plants owned the government and scattered §BCl|cnlly throughout the world. AThe savings, Gen. Lord said, were e to & more economical administra- sfon of the government printing of- e by Public Printer George H. Car- and to the eco-ordinating work the permanent conference on inting. ¥Fancy Stuff Eliminated. $Elimination of de luxe work, ele- nt and fancy stuff, such as morocco L amd leather bindings and embossed & terheads, has helped materially, @n. Lord said. The government's paeinting bill for the year just closed igst Saturday, Gen. Lord estimated, puld be not more than $8,900,000, hile_the bill for the year previous was $10,169,436.42. Printing in the evious vear (1921) cost Uncle Sam $82,876,362.86. *The permanent conference on inting, Gen. Lord said, had saved 350,000 in the cost of proof correc- tfons during the past vear by de- mending more carefully prepared c@py. The cost of printing annual r@orts, he said, had been reduced by proximately $80,000, due to the astion of departments and establish- % nfents in reducing the number and , sige of annual reports. # Joiat Committee Commended. he joint committee on printing of Pngress, Gen. Lord said, had made B:e:n efforts to get government peinting on a business basis. Sena- 10r Moses is chairman of that com- nfl\uee and the clerk is Ansel Wold. No longer do government depart- ments make a rush for the govern- nfent printing office the last of the cal year in order to spend their 1:gexpended appropriation, so as not t® have any surplus left from the yar's operations. This practice for- merly, it was safd, had been quite com- mon among ‘the government depart- nents. ¢ 's;m from now on, Gen. Lord has . ) warned, government offigials who at- 1@mpt to spend such surplus stand Ufely to be “fired.” H P‘_OTHER’S CLAIM BLOCKED $T. LOUIS, Mo., July 4—Mrs. Bvrd Shoemaker of New York conspired to eilol’t money from her former hus- bénd, Herman Henry Laumeier, CAMP FOR CHILDREN Club Will Give Funds to Support Project at Petux- ent, Md. Gratified with the success of the undertaking last year, the Civita Club voted to sponsor & fresh alr camp for children at Patuxent, Md., again this summer at a' meeting of the organization in the Hotel La Fay- ette yesterday. The camp, which is conducted un- der direction of the Salvation Army, opened yesterday under the auspices of the Baltimore Civitan Club, which will defray all expense for the next two weeks. Then the Washington Clvitans will bear the upkeep for the remainder of the summer. In presenting the recommendation of the board of directors, Rudolph Jose, James Proctor, Kdward Bra- shears, W. O. Hiltabidle and Clarence L. Harding, president of the club, all spoke favoring the proposition. Some money was subscribed by the club treasury and the balance will be borne by individual members. The president read letters from the Americanization School of the DI trict, thanking local Clvitans f sistance f the recent convention of Inter- national Civitan, and others who had attended. Arthur Fitzpatrick of Chicago was the out-of-town guest of honor. Spencer Curry was awarded the booster prize for the day. Owing to the absence from town of many of its best golfers, the club declined an invitation from the Bal- timore Civitan Club for a match game. HELD ON CHECK CHARGE. Atlanta Man Arrested for Passing Worthless Paper.
