make heavy cuts, without regard
for the needs, and then let the sen

put them in special bills to come

Messrs. Moore, Britten and Good are

resentatives from Pennsylvania and
Illinois were suspicious cf the gen

It was broivght out that the ship

of monev needed to carry out its

Congress, after making a great
show of its intention to adopt a

the line of business like innovation.

amateur ideas, vve modestly sug
gest putting a few bands of re-in-forced

Arbitrary reduction of appropria
tions ordered by the standpat "steer
ing committee" of the House has
not . taken well with the country
and republican leaders are begin
ning to hear from it. It is evident
that there is a deep sentiment and
desire in the . hearts of the people
for honest, justifiable economy, but
not for wilfull, deliberate, senseless
reductions that cripple the govern
ment and threaten the comforts and
welfare of returning soldiers.
If the House program for the avia
tion service of the Army and the
Tavy goes through the United
Sfates will become a third-rate na
tion in aircraft and airmen. The
action of the House in this instance
is proving a flare-back. The roar
from the press of the nation has
caused republican senators to rush
into print with promises to recon
struct provisions framed by the
House. .
It is charged by democrats that
the republicans of the House, fol-
carry out the program Of the ad
ministration. "I am greatly interested in see
ing this bilf carry enough money to
enable the shipping board to bring
to successful conclusion its desires
for a well-balanced fleet of cargo
and nassensrer carriers." said Mr.
Britten.
