He pointed to the fact that ft» 1*1« the government employed about 80.099 persons in the civil service at Washington and that in the same departments almost a year after the armistice was signed. 102,909 persons were employed. with the ending of the war.” he aald, ’large reductions might have been expected.

But what a beautiful illustration It is of how har4 It Is to get rid of a public office when it Is once created. 8o I say, the first step toward reform is the creation of a budgetary machinery with power vested In the secretary of the treasury similar to that conferred on our director of finance.

This proposal followed one previously rejected by the exchange providing for the collection of the fees named from all shippers who did not object. The exchange replied that it would collect the fees only from shippers who gave written consent. John G. Brown, president of the federation, and head of the live stock committee, said this would defeat the practicability of the plan and the other sys-
tem was worked out.
In rejecting the second plan the exchange prepared a letter which said members of the exchange express disappointment of the rejection by the federation of the exchange’s agreement to collect fees from those who give written consent. It was agreed at the meeting for the exchange - to stand by this plan.
Comment of Officers.
Officers of the federation, when advised of the rejection of the federation's second proposal, said it showed that the exchange did not wish to co-operate with the farmers In seeing that the latter had a representatve in the yards to protect their Interests. They said it also showed that such a representative was needed or no attempt to defeat the establishing of such a system would have been made. The federation has indicated that it will attempt to have passed at the next meeting of the Indiana legislature a bill providing for the Live Stock Exchange to b« under the supervision of the Indiana public service commission.
