LIPMAN 34 Lafayette St. BY STANLEY Tel. 1329-2 I | STATE 15 70 HAVE 51250000 IN 1622 Cuts in Taxes Assured-Bissell's Accounts Show Drop in Outgo Hartford, Ieb, 22.- Forty depart. ments of the state government came |through the first quarter of the new figcal year with a net saving of $342,- Oon - maintenance appropriations voted them by the last session of the legislature, it was shown hy flgures on record, by C‘omptroller Harvey Nissell, Expenditures aggregated 882,100, which was about $0 per cent of the amount figured to be availahle for these departments for three months in proportion to the whole |two-year budget period cnding June 30, 1923, | A balance af approximately $2,600 (00 will he assured from the 102 budget of £26,020,302 when the next session of the legiglajure undertakes to make appropriations for the fol- lowing two years, i' the rate now cetablished is maintained through- out the two fiscal years, It is expect- ed, however that the decreased costs which were mostly responsible for the 20 per cent saving in the first three months will be further decreased to the end that the net saving for the entire two years will exceed $2,500,- 000, 'This is in contrast to deficiencies aggregating over 000,000 which confronted the legislature when it convened last vear. The figures cited ahove do not take |into account the appropriations of the state and other items not in- cluded for various reasons. £ New Accounting System. | Under the uniform system of ac- | counting established by Comptroller Rissecll, the two-year budget period has been divided into ecight quarter- | year sections, * For each quarter, the various departments are equipped to report to the comptrolier’s office on their expenditures. By this method, the comptroller's office is able to tell a8 the year passes whether the state | is keeping within its income or f{s running behind. Under the old system, the departments were not required to [ report their expenditures to the | comptroller's office for a giveli per- iod. Consequently, the board of con- trol, except for what assistance it could get from the state board of fi- nance in matter, was not always aware of the extent of deficiencies created by its votes. The Savings Made. Different departments spent the | following amounts less than the pro- | portionate amount of their appropria- | tions for the first three months.

As the appropriation secured from the legis- lature was largely forythese improve- ments, which were completed with- in the first period instead of being carried along over several periods it was pointed out, there will be a substantial balance at the cnd of the year. The showing of the departments mentioned in keeping down expenses was taken to indicate a general de- crease in the rate of maintaining the state government. As every $1,700,- 000 cut from the total means one mill less taxes, direct or indirect, to the people of the state, the comp- troller's report was regarded as as- suring substantial tax reduction by ssion of the legislature. GERMAN BODIES ARE NOT T0 BE REMOVED Cost of Operation is Said to Be Too Much e = Berlin, Teb. German soldiers who died and were buried on Belgian and French battlefields probably will remain on foreign soil on account of the cost entailed in bringing them home. This is indicated in statements by the official bureau which is entrusted with the work of helping relatives to identify the dead and arrange for the transportation of their bodics to Ger- many. Although negotiations with IFrance and Belgium for the removal of the bodies were concluded weeks ago, not one German soldier has been exhum- ed for the journey home, despite the fact that thousands of inquiries have been made by relatives. Told that they must bear the cost of exhuming and transportation, which from France amounts to 30,000 marks, they turn away, for that sum is now a large fortune to the average German. Sentiment Growing. Consequently, gentiment is growing to allow the German soldier dead to rest on the fields where they were buried or in the French or Belgian cemeteries to which they have been transferred. The information that the French are carefully tending these burial places and, wherc pos ible, marking the individual graves with crosges and names nlso has tended to allay the feeling that these dead should not remain in a strange land. Under the stipulations agreed upon, none of the three governments as- sumes responsibility for mistakes, and the relative must give a guarantee of for removal, which in the majority of cases is very difficult. The German office carries on negotiations with fl’\Pl Belgians and French to this end, which sometimes requires several weeks. Fven those relatives who cannot or do not desire to bring the dead sol- dier back to the Fatherland are seek- ing to establish the identity of the fallen, and the bureans opened in Prussia, Bavaria, Saxony and Wuert- temburg to help them, are swamped with inquiries. < s ARE “FRAT" MEN SNOBS? Chicago University To Investizgate Charge That They Are. Chicago, Feb. 22.--An investigation by the faculty to find out whether University of Chicago fraternities are “snobhish, catering only to the rich and assuming an air of class super- fority over non-fraternity students,” will be started at once.

(4] WASHINGTON'S IDEAL BEING CARRIED 0UT S0 Declares Vice President Calyin Coolidge in Address Baltimore, ¥eb. 22.-~The United States has adopted toward the world the policy of George Washington, not a policy of “dictation, coercion or im- perialism, but of co-operation and helpfulness and of faith in the sanc- tion of the universal conscience of mankind,” Vice-President Coolidge declared in an address here today at John Hopkins university. America stands ready, he said, to bear its share of the burdens of the world but it “cannot live the life of other peo- ples or remove from them the neces- sity of working out their own des- tiny." Mr. Coolidge was given the orary degree of doctor of laws. Spirit of Sacrifice. The willingness o fthe American people to make sacrifices for the wel- fare o fthe world, he said, was shown by the policy pursued by their gov- ernment in calling the Washington conference and particularly its pro- posal for the reduction of naval arm- ament, which, he said, was the “voice of the people” and not of “one man, one party or one administration.” Of the other major accomplishment of the conference, the four power Pacific treaty, he declarcd its “‘great strength in its simplicity”” and that it “rests on the sanction of justice.” “It does not undertake to ecstab- lish any artificial relationship,” he continued. “It does not make any new law. It acknowledges the bind- ing force of an eternal law. It fs an agreement to respect mutual rights, and whenever these rights are en- dangered to resort to mutual consul- tation.” hon- League Not Wanted. The league of nations as an Instru- ment to promote the peace of the world did not meet the fdeal of the American people, Mr. Coolidge de- clared, because they “saw in its cov- enant, whether intended or not, a diminution of their independence and in its provisions the iinal sanction, not of conscience but of force.” Washington, as leader in the na- tion's struggle for independence, Mr. Coolidge said, accepted the help of foreigners, but “he declared if the cause was to be won it must be won by Americans relying on themselves.” “Tt was this truly American view,” the vice-president said, which not only saved the revolution but after jts conclusion saved what it had won. Washington was a nationalist. That he lay at the foundation of = all his statesmanship.” SUCCEEDS MAJOR BARBOUR. Harttford, Feb. ~—The appoint- ment of Clarence S.

The body of a woman found'dead in Forest Hill park last Iriday has been identified as that of Miss Julia Tate, 40, former- ly a resident of Bridgeport, Conn. Mrs. Helen Schubert of Bridgeport, who said Miss Tate formerly lived with her, made the identification.
