GO, WATMANAS NEW PLAN FORTHE STATE BUDGE Will Enable Him to Pare Down Padded Appropriations, He Declares. TALKS POLITICS TO-DAY. Stays in Washington for a Din- ner and Cuts Out Amen Corner Feast. By Samuel M., Williame. (Staff Correspondent of The Evening World.) WASHINGTON, Dec. 16. — Gov. Whitman will be the guest of the New York Republican members of Con- stress at a dinner to-night when there will be free talk about politics and policies. This affair will prevent the Governor's attendance at the Amen Corner dinner in New York, which heretofore has been considered almost ‘ecutive social obligation. hope,” he sald, “that my absence will not be misconstrued as in any way elighting that enjoyable func- tion, but I feel that while here in Washington attending the conference of Governors it {s more Important to meot with the State's representatives in Congress on the only occasion of- fered.” Despite their political hostility, Gov, Whitman and President Wilson have found themselves on cordial personal terms, At the White House dinner Thursday night Mr. Wilson saved for the Governor his wittiest election story In rhyme, In return Mr. Whitman will attend the Presl- dent's inauguration celebration on March 4 next, tho first time a New York Governor had done so for an op- position party President. As for his own second term In- auguration at Albany on Jan. 1, @ big celebration Is planned, not #0 much for the Governor as for other] 4 State officers who all have been ro- framers of the Constitution that a Governor should tmve this power,” sald Mr. Whitman. “But strict coi struction of the article results in the resent handicap. An item of abso- tute necessity In an appropriation bill may be outrageously padded, but the Executive cannot pare it down. For example, an appropriation for feed- ing patients in a State Inetitution may be twice as large as required. The Governor must cut it all out.or leave it stand and he cannot do the former because the inmates would be left to starve.

There was an object lesson for tho Public Service Commission last night at the corner of One Hundred and Seventy-fourth Street and Southern Boulevard tn the Bronx.
