§Today I, More Politics. 1; A Religious Fight. , Dear Wheat Would Help. Who Could Win. . By ARTHUR BRISBANE \___✓ ; There is not quite as much finan cial worry about the democratic nominee as ^here was at first. Thanks tu the bitter religious , fight which now becomes inevitably f the main democratic issue, demo 1 cratic chances for victory have ■' dropped at. least 50 per cent. Sryan snw what was coming p when he begged the convention h "not to carry a religious fight into d every election district in the coun S try.” But that is precisely what ft the democratic party has done, and I it is too late to back out. i Republicans are much cheered Si by the fighting among their dear democratic friends. J Democratic fighting and wheat ft prices steadily rising—such is the fs outlook for a cheerful campaign, | as the republicans see it now. [f If the democrats keep on fighting K about religious liberty, as they will, In every election district,” and if heat goes close to $1.50, as the g republicans intend it shall, Mr. ooolidge may go fishing from the ayflower and enjoy himself, free om worry. If the farmers have any wheat asold from the fast crop—they >ually have none when the price >es up—let them hang onto it. nd if they are wise they will hold ir high prices the wheat soon to s threshed. When the really big people want heat to go up, as they do now, it >es up. They have the power to ake it go. It is not like one in vidual, professional wheat gam er, or little pool, trying to fight ie wolves of the “short side.” Other grains, corn especially, id cotton and stocks, will travel sward with the wheat. What re ifclican victory, big victory, de ands is a prosperity boom, ou’ll have it. Readers may remember that this riter, when cotton was below 25, inounced that it would travel up 35. It did, moving steadily and gher than 35. What the big fel ws want really happens. I There are grains of comfort for all in the Saturday meeting of the f big convention. At least, the re • ligious fijjht was brought out into • the open, thoroughly threshed out. The 1,000 extra policemen were not needed to prevent physical fighting. But that, as Mr. Bryan might say, was only a “mizpah.” 1 Whence of savage fighting was due \o the fact that not one man made any open defiance of the klan. If that had come, with any support from the floor, there would have \ been fighting, and plenty of it. Then, there was a nice funeral, ' much appreciated. The good old l League of Nations, having seer, her best dAys, was gently laid away to 'est. On her tombstone you read, “Public Referendum.” Mr. Baker made a good fight, and the dear ’ women, sweet things, that believe you can make a peaceful world to • order, as you make a cherry pie, J i heered a pretty soprano when the league was named. , But the league is dead, and, in v the language of Swinburne, “dead ladies come back never.” You r won’t hear much more about that. It is lucky for the democrats. On£ big religious fight is as much of a fight as any one party ought * to carry. The name of the klan Is not men tioned in the platform. But it was so tho-oughly named and cursed and kicked around in con vention speeches that the platform 1 might as well have named it 47 i times. Nobody in New York knows what the klan is,.how trjany klans men there are, or how sensitive ‘ they feel about being called out of their name, and in it. But if they are numerous, and sensitive about being called worse than Judas Iscariot, this is to be a lively elec , tion. K The savage hatred of the klan psApenly expressed by most of the r *■ democratic speakers, and the con | tempt or weak apology expressed by others, certainly will not please any high-spirited kleagje. Poor C iamp Clark’s hound, you may remember, got a fearful , “kicking around.” Many democrats sang about it, for awhile. Well, friends, the kicking around that the klan got in that convention makes the Champ Clark dog in cident seem trivial. If the democrats choose a candi date that represents the klan in any way he is buried deep in ad vance, if that howling convention means anything. If the convention names a man that can only whisper to the klan, “Say, it did not kick you so very hard that night” thv. he will not have much of a cha:.se. Anyhow, the big crowd enjoyed the kicking process while it lasted. Many a democrat, this morning, is wondering about the actual cash value of the job thut is promised him, if. HerrtOm is advised not to i rely on it for a living, The man that stood out in the convention was William J. Bryan. He really is a man, not afraid of anything or anybody, and afraid of howling politicians less than of anything else. McAdoo still has most votes. He is probably the only nan that could fight his way against the religious fightf that is coming in this com paign. There will be many meet j. ings that, will not have 10 New L York policemen in eao. aisle, and | that will make a difference. I McAdoo’s labor following, hav ing nothing to do with any religious * quarrel, might pull him through. ' As for other candidates, if they > enjoy merejy running, let them get the nomiMfaon, if they can. • (CoflH%ht, 1114.j ADVERTISEMENT.

Drastic Economy Plan of Coolidge for Year’s Budget President Demands Further Tax Reduction of Admin istrative Heads of Government. (Continued from Paco One.) eludes the year which ends today, our expenditures were $3,795,000,000, $3, 657,000,000 and $3,497,000,000, respect ively. Here we show a progressive and consistent reduction in expendi tures. On the other side of the ledger our receipts for 1922 were $4,109,000,000, 1923 $4,007,000,000 and 1924 $3,995,000,000. An analysis of these figures shows that In the face of a progressive reduction In receipts we have still achieved a substantial surplus at the end of each of the fiscal years—$314,000,000 for 1922, $510,000,000 for 1923 and $498,000,000 for 1924. "The amounts which I have stated as being the expenditures, receipts and surplus for the fiscal year 1924, which ends today, are only approxi mate. AVe will not have the actual figures until the books are finally balanced. The surplus accumulated at the end of each of the last three fiscal years has heen applied to the reduction of the public debt In addi tion to the reductions required by law under the sinking fund and other acts. Without the aid of this recur ring surplus the public debt would be $1,100,000,000 more than It now stands, and the Interest charges would ho some $45,000,000 greater next year than we shall now have to pay. Interest Burden Relief. "Along with this reduction in ex penditures has gone a progressive reduction of the public debt with Its attendant relief from the burden of interest. On June 30. 1921. the public debt was $23,876,000,000. In 1922 it had been reduced more than $1,000, 000,000 to $22,964,000,000. In 1928 It had been reduced more than $600, 000,00 to $22,349,000,000. In 1924 It has been reduced again by more than $1,000,000,00 and stands at an esti mated amount of $21,254,000,000, which is a reduction in three years of $2,732,000,000 and means a saving of Interest of more than $120,000,000 each year. "This shows that the intensive cam paign which was commenced three years ago, has been waged unrelent ingly. In this campaign we have had the active co-operation and support of congress. The three budgets pre sented by the chief executive to the congress have carried drastic, pro gressive reductions in their estimates for funds. Congress has adhered to budget procedure in passing upon these estimates. The appropriations granted have been in harmony with the financial program of the chief executive.” Orders $83,000,000 Reduction. The president announced that he would submit estimates of not more than $3,000,000,000 for expenditures in the fiscal year beginning July 1, 1925. He fixed that figure as the maximum and instructed the officers under him to find a way to cut $83, 7)00,000 from their present estimates, which are of a preliminary character and call for appropriations of $3,083, 000,000. If this cut is made, Mr. Coolidge said the surplus for the year covered by those e limates would approx imate $108,000,000. He added that he had faith In the ability of the admin istrative heads to accomplish the pur pose. "We are setting the example for re duction In the cost of government and for a return to ordinary peace time conditions," he continued with emphasis. "There can bo no faltering. Our duty Is plain. As he have pro gressed in the three years, so we must continue. “When we met six months ago," Mr. Coolidge said, "I stated to you that this fight for economy had hut one purpose--that the benefits would accrue to tin whole people through reduction in taxes. Taxes have now been reduced. While our immediate need is for tax reform as distinguish ed from tax reduction, we must con tinue this campaign for economy so Legion Recruits 3,000th Member Walter A. Kirby, left, and Harry Hough. The 3,000th member of the Doug las County post of the American Le gion “signed up” Monday morning at 10:15. The objective of a strenuous drive has at last been reached. The Omaha post Is the largest single post In the world, having 1,000 members more than any other post. The drive started last January. Walter A. Kirby was the man who made the roll call 8,000. He Just hit Omaha three weeks ago, coming from New York. He was discovered by Don Ktpllnger, who sicked the "mop ping up" squad on him. After that there was nothing to It. The squad consisted of Harry Weinberg and Jack Ely. as to make possible further tax re ductions. Requires More Efficiency. "We owe this to the people of our nation, to the people who must pay with their toil. The relief which has recently been afforded must be onlj' the beginning. "This insistent demand for econ omy and reduction in expenditures necessarily requires Increasing ef ficiency of administration. ... If there is any question as to th* au thority of heads of departments or establishments to discontinue or re duce any phase of existing work, it is my desire that they report the matter to me. The duty and the op portunity today of the government's administrators is not to enter upon new fields of enterprise. On the other hand, it is their duty and op portunity to carry on approved and necessary activities with the smallest possible expenditures. . . "We, the administrators of the government's great business inter ests. should have at this time only one thought and policy—to perform efficiently the functions devolving upon us under the law. And we should accomplish this with the smallest possible demand upon the treasury. Smaller Revenue In Sight. "Tomorrow we commence a new fis cal year. Wre will have a smaller revenue by reason of the lessening of the burden of the taxpayers under the new tax law. On the other hand we will have an Increase In our fixed charges. The world was ad justed compensation act alone adds approximately $132,000,000 to our fixed charges for 1925. A real battle faces us, but we are organized for the fight. The best estimate today Indicates a surplus of approximately $25,000,000 for the next fiscal jear. . . . "You are now preparing your pre liminary estimates for the fiscal year 1926. For that fiscal year it will be my purpose to transmit to congress estimates of appropriations which, excluding the Interest on and reduction In the public debt, and the postal service, will not exceed a total of $1,800,000,000. This tentative limi tation Is In furtherance of my pro gram for a progressive reduction in the cost of government. . . . "Let me say here that under the budget and accounting account the only lawful estimate* are those which the chief executive transmits to the congress. It is these estimates that call for your loyal support. Unless such support be given, you are not fulfilling your obligations to your of fice. ' Must Hare No Carelessness. “We must have no carelessness In our dealings with public property or the expenditure of public money. Such a condition Is characteristic either of an undeveloped people or of a decadent civilization. America Is neither. We must have an adminis tration which Is marked, not by the Inexperience of youth, or the futility of age, but by the character and ability of maturity. Wre have had the self control to put Into effect the budget system, to live under It and In accordance with It. It la an ac complishment In the art of self gov ernment of the very highest Im portance. It means that the Ameri can government Is not a spendthrift and that It Is not lacking In the force of disposition to organize and ad minister Its finances In a scientific way. “To maintain this condition puts us constantly on trial, it requires us to demonstrate whether we are weak lings. or whether we have strength of character. It Is not too much to say that It Is a measure of the power and Integrity of the civilization which we represent. I have a firm faith In your ability to maintain this position and In the will of the American peo ple to support you In that determina tion. In that faith In you and them, I propose to persevere. I am for economy. After that I am for more economy. At this time and under present conditions that is my concep tion of serving all the people.” Jark Coes to West Point.
