DOUBLE BUDGET SYSTEM CHECK ON U. S. PURSE Director Dawes and Representative Madden Pass on Appropriations. WASHINGTON, Not. 18.—Th# chief trouble with the national purse has been that It has had too many strings. Until the budget system was evolved those strings either dangled loosely while the taxpayers’ money was split in many directions or were loosened by those who, at the Capitol particularly, had an eye on the local "pork barrel.” The efforts of Budget Director Dawes to tighten the strings are being ably seconded by Representative Martin B. Madden, of Chicago, the new chairman of CftQim Appropriations Committee. Little is heard of what do. rag to eflect real economies in the mak-

ing of Congressional appropriations. He has permitted Dawes to crowd him out of the spotlight. But that is the Madden way. He works better without baud music. His modesty is attested by the fact that his is the shortest sketch in the Congressional Directory, where longwinded “biographies” are the rule and not the exception. Here is all that the Congressional Directory says of Madden: “Martin B. Madden, Republican, of Chicago, was elected to the Fifty-Ninth and each succeeding Congress.” The brevity of that is typical of the man who is recognized as one of the ablest and most potential leaders of the House, and whose unusual attainments caused him to be selected to preside over Its all-important Appropriations Committee. ' Madden has Just effected not only a complete re-organization of the committee, but, what is of more importance, For Colds.

of the system of turning out appropriations from the committee “hopper.” Upon the House devolves the constitutional prerogative of originating fiscal legislation, and upon Madden and his committee rests the difficult and complex task of drafting the different appropriations bills for each fiscal year. In his efforts to effect real reforms and economies Madden has an efficient and experienced assistant in Marcellus C. Shield, who has been chief clerk of the committee for a number of years and under a succession of committee chairmen. Madden frankly admits that Shield knows more about appropriations than any member of the House o(r even Director Dawes can ever hope to know. Madden has just re-organized his committee to enable it to consider the first hudget which President Harding will submit to Congress under the new Budget Act at the opening of the regular session in December. The act provides for the submission of two budgets—one to follow the outline of the old book estimates and the old appropriations bills and the other (the alternative budget) to be made up according to such arrangement as the Bud-

get Director, with the approval of the President, shall prescribe. The House Appropriations Committee heretofore has been subdivided into thirteen committees, one for each of the twelve regular annual appropriations bills and one for all the deficiency appropriations bills. These bills, with few exceptions, were not constructed upon any well-defined, logical lines. Most Government departments and bureaus got part of their appropriations in one bill and part in another. It was impossible to ascertain the total appropriations for the departments or bureaus without consulting two or more of the bills. The War Department furnished an apt. illustration of this unbusinesslike distribution of public moneys. Army appropriations were carried in the Army, Fortifications and Sundry* Civil bills, and civil activities over Lyh+ch the War Department has Jurisdiction were found scattered through the Legislative, Executive and Judicial Rivers and Harbors and Sundry Civil bills. Appropriation bills were, in the main, so lacking in business system as to be often confusing to Congress and the departments find bureaus themselves and

utterly incomprehensible to the public. Madden and Dawes are in accord on the submission of the alternative estimates and the consideration of the appropriations bills which are to be based upon those estimates. The new system will place all appropriations for a given department or bureau In the one and home bill and enable anyone to ascertain readily the amount proposed to be appropriated without having to consult several separate bills. This will render possible a businesslike consideration of the needs of each department or bmreau by having them grouped together in a. related manner. It will also practically wipe out all of the old appropriations bills and establish in their stead new bills containing appropriations grouped according to the
