Second Section GOVERNMENT IS PUT ON A PAYING BASIS Budget Cats Billion From Puabic Debt--Receipts Gain ‘Wheshington, June 14—The ordinary recelpts of the government for the last fiscal year exceeded the ordin- ary expenses by $313,801,651.10 and the reduction of the public debt amounted to $1,014,068,844.23, ac- cording to statements issued yester-! day by the senate and house commit- tees on appropriations. The reports reviewed fully the appropriations for the present fiscal year 1923 which be- &an on July 1, as compared with those of 1922 Both Senator Warren (Wyo.) chalr- man of the senate appropriation com- mittee, and Representative Madden, (Ill.) chairman of the house appro- priation committee, emphasized the fact that the budget system during the first year of its operation was a glowing succees, expediting appropria- tion legislation and saving large sums of money. The largest of the reductions was effected in the military and naval es- tablishments. The army reduction _amounted to $94,206,368.98, and the naval $118,844,383.87. “Thie result,”” says Chairman Mad- den's report “is directly due to the conclusions reached by the conference on the limitation of armament.” Chairman Madden praises the in- itiative of President Harding in call- ing the Washington Arms Conference and the work of Secretary Hughes and says it has made possible great economies in the naval budgets of the, world and will relieve humanity from the burden of providing billions in taxation to defray the cost of naval armament. Representativea Byrns (Tennessee), ranking democratic member of the appropriations committee, in his re- port takes exception to the conclu- sions drawn by Senator Warren and Representative Madden, declaring! they have merely “juggled” figures; and there has not been any actual saving under the budget system. Senator Warren calls especial at-| tention to the fact that the appropria- tions for the fiscal year 1923 are $319,280,984.10 less than for the fis-| cal year 1922 “This result,” he adds, “which I am sure will be grat- ifying to the taxpayers of our country, was achieved by a careful and pains- taking effort on the part of all con-| cerned.” With his report Senator Warren| submitted tables showing that the| budget estimates for the fiscal year| 1923, submitted December, 1921,/ made a grand total of $3,809,224,159.- 53; the supplemental budget esti-| mates submitted between December| 5, 1921, to June 30, 1922, totaled $110,33 . making the total] budget estimates for 1923 $3,919,558,- 429.50, while the appropriations net- ted $3,747,035,382.64 or a reduction of $172,523,046.86. Other Figures Presented. “The regular annual appropriation | bills as passed by the Senate,” says| Senator Warren, ‘show an apparent| increase of $195,049,426. over the! amount as passed by the House. After deducting from this sum $50,000,000 | added to the post office act for con- | struction of rural postroads, $53,480,- | 120 added to the War Department act,| made necessary, in the main, by in- creasing the size of the personnel and enlisted strength of the army, and $44,280,507.10 added to the naval act, chiefly on account of increased pay, increase of the navy and for aviation purposes, there is left only $47,488,- 799.25 added by the senate to the pro- posals of the House. “Much of this amount added to the bills as passed by the senate was made necessary by estimates for items brought forward at later dates and after the bills had passed the House, and there was little controversy con- cerning their merit.” George \\a~hlng0nn'~ only trip to a forefgn country was made in 1751 when he went to the Barbadooes.

A recent publication of the depart- ment declares that the business girl, with a reasonable amount of zeal and talent, can use part of her spare time to such effect tat she can cut in half her clothes bill In the first place, says the circular, it must be granted that the important way to reduce costs is to eliminate as far as possible the {tems of labor and distribution. In other words, the busi- ness girl should make her own cloth- ing ,otherwise, unless she's a wizard at nosing out bargains, she stands lit- tle chance of reducing her clothing budget. The business girl may claim, says Uncle Eam, that she has not the time or energy left after a strenuous day's work but a skilled sewer who enjoys sewing as an interesting and profit- able change of occupation can al- ways find time and energy. In this connection, the department cites the case of a girl in a government de- partment who, with the aid of the cir- culars and extension work of the agri- | culture department, was very success- ful in keeping her wardrobe supplied at comparatively low cost, one-half in fact what the same clothing would have cost ready-made. To begin with, she got a department circular telling how to make a dress form by pasting layers of gummed bundle wrapping paper over a tightly fitting vest on herself as a model. When the paper casing was cut and fastened together, she had a light, stiff and perfect reproduction of her form. So it was not necessary to pur- The girl reported that her latest wardrobe cost her only $108 for cloth- ing conservatively estimated to be worth $210 at store prices. With the ald of her paper form she made, for $24.61 a tan broadcloth winter coat with good lining, such as she saw priced at $50 in the shops. A blue voile dress with a slip, cost, including trimming, $11.09. A tissue gingham dress, with organdie for trimming and also hemstitching, cost $6.33° with scraps and a remnant she made another gingham dress for exactly 45 cents. For $16 she bought materials to make a pussy willow taffeta and georgette crepe dress for social oc- she could not duplicate in quality at a store for less than $35. Her business dress of serge and crepe de chine would have been priced at $40 or more {f made of silver lace, cost only $21, although it was modelled after one seen at a shop at a much higher price. This wardrobe, augmented by dresses for which materials were | bought, brought the total up to $108.34, is not elaborate though suffi- | cient for the needs of the wearer, it was said, and, having a variety of clothing she was able to attend many social functions she otherwise would not have. Without the dress form, the girl re- ported, it was doubtful if she could have duplicated her achievement in the time at her disposal but she not only had time left over for other ac- tivities, but also to make ten such forms for other girls and to hold classes to teach many others.
