12 TRNKLE CAUTION OF BUDGET LT Virginia Governor Again Em- phasizes Economy Need in Appropriations. By the Associsted Pres RICHMOND, Va., January 17.—Rec- ommendation that the amounts fixed in the official budget of the state gov- ernment for the next biennium be ad- hered to as closely as possible in framing the new appropriation bill for the Virginia general assembly last night was made by Gov. Trinkle &nd Chairman Garrett, thirteenth dis- trict, of the joint finance appropria- tion committee. The apbropriation committee of the house and the finance committee of the senate met to organize for its | work and the remarks of the chief executive and Senator rrett were regarded in assembly circles as the keynote of the policy to be follqwed in"considering appropriations, Held Constructive Legislation. “I have seen the budget system de- veloped in all fts phases from the very beginning,” the senator re- marked, “and I have no hesitancy in saying to you that our Virginia budget law is the most constructive legislation ever enacted by the Vir- ginia legislature for Improving the | business affairs of our state govern- ment. “The budget which is before you is a document fairly and honestly con- ceived and executed. It presents a clear and detailed plan for financing the state government during the next two years, and 1 urge that the joint committee consider with care and de- liberation the various items in the sutative bill and have the fullest in- | formation obtainable before us before | we begin making amendments.” 5 The chairman led attention to| the fact that the budget provided for appropriations amounting to $23,322.- 445, which is a sum $20,345,000 less than the figure asked by the depart- ments and_institutions for the next iwo years and $523,789 less than the amoun appropriated for the last Lienniy Gov. Trinkle's remarks to the com- mittees were along the same line as 1hose included in the preamble to the budget. He again warned that the “ppropriati must be kept within the state’s revenue, and declared he was opposed to an increase in tax- atlon. Byrd Questions Governor. Senator Byrd, Twenty-sixth dis- trict. chairman of the state demo- eratle exccutive committee, “irected a serles of questions at the @ ornor, and expressed the opinion ..at the budget prosented a “very dangerous margin” on which to work, since the estimated enue during the past 1wo years d fallen short $3,000,000. If the ne mistake should be made again this time, at the end of two years. we would have a deficit of $5,000,000 on our hands.” he sald. “Personally, I do not belleve the state's revenue will show an Increase of 10 per cent during the next two years and I think we are working on & very dangerous margin, as present- ed in the budgot.” The budget recommends appropria- tions for the perlod $50,000 less than the estimated revenue. Senator Byrd asked the governor | how he expected to replace the defi- it of $1,750,000 Incurred during the nast two years. The executive re- vlied that he was hoping this would be accomplished through a greater increase in the revenue than has been estimated in the budget. ROCKVILLE. ROCKVILLE, Md,, January 17 (Spe- elal).—The efficiency of the Mont- gomery county police force has evok- ed much favorable comment since its establishment less than two years ago, but the first formal expression of appreciation was contained JAn_a letter received a few days ago by the county commissioners from Pres- ton C. King, chairman of the police and fire protection committee of the Takoma Park Citizens’' Assoclation of Takoma Park, this county. Mr. King wrote: ‘“The citizens of Takoma Park feel very grateful toward your county po- lice for their splendid work in ap- prehending drivers of automoblles ex- ceeding the speed limit in and around Takoma. It is noted that a number of such individuals have been ap- prehended lately, and, as chairman of the police and'fire protection com- mittee of the Takoma Park Citizens’ Assoclation, I have been requested to express to you and the police the deep appreciation of the citizens for this splendid work and to do every- thing possible to encourage further activities along these lines.” Sees End of “Jase.” In a talk on “Music” before the Woman's Club of Dickerson, this county, at the home of Mr. and Mrs. Maurice H.

DENIES BRITAIN PAID - NO HEED TO HUGHES McNeill Answers Lloyd George Charge Relative to Reparations Parley Proposals. has By the Associated Press LONDON, January 17.—Throughout the last twelve months the British government has never neglected an opportunity for attempting to enlist the assistance of the United States in the settlement of the reparation question, Ronald McNeill, under| secretary for foreign affairs, said in the house of commons yesterday. He was replying to Mr. Lloyd George's criticism that the government had not made the most of the offer of Secretar of State Hughes to help solve the reparation problem. In_a lengthy-defense of the Brit- ish foreigm policy, Mr. McNeill !aJdI the Hughes proposals were originally miade to France on December 18, 1922 and had never been officially com municated to the British Eovern ment. The foreign office, he ex- plained, learned of the proposals ough the British ambassador in | Washington o whom Secretary Hughes had communicated them in strict confidence. Although France re- Jected the American offer, continued Mr. { Nelll, Great Britain advised the Tnited States, then and subsequently, that the British government would welcome an American observer. Mr. McNelll sald that Mr. Liloyd George had rather exaggerated the character of the American proposals in calling them official proposals from | the American government.
