This rivers sod harbors bill carries appropriations for $58,060,000, Of this amount $6,000,000 is for new projects authorised by this biii which win re- quire $32,000,000 more to complete. Tats makes a total expenditure of $85,000,000 appropriated for or au- thorized fa this bill. In addition to this there Is $52,000,009 now In the treasury and available for river and hirhor inspiwemsut works tagdarT^ vious appropriations, which makes a total of $137,000,000 now in the river and harbor pork barrel. / n', Some of the projects already appro- priated for ss well ss some of those contained in this bin are, of course, entirely proper.

In other words, if the treasury needs $100,000,000, let us accomplish that end by kilUn« tbo rivers and harbors bill, thus stopping appropriations ag- gregating $53,000,000 and direct that the money In the treasury now avail- able for river and harbor projects amounting to $52,000,000 be retained in the treasury and the completion of 'the legitimate'projects involved be postponed until they can be better af- forded. ---If the advocates of t h e pen din g riv- er and harbor bill persist In patties H through in ■ny»h«nS like its present form, and succeed in.doing so, I shall vote against any bill calling for an ad- ditional tax in the shape of a war tax, no matter what Its terms are. '■l'. 1........J*". Congressman From District Believes In Gov- ernment Economy. By Chan. M. Thomson. these days of the many neces- for economy in the conduct of the public business we hear much of What it called in legislative slang, "pork." This term may be defined as tan appropriation secured chiefly for sal purposes, in most cases t projects involved in "pork" bills improvements that are except to gqt; votes. ,.*• There are two principal sources of wrk," one of which is public build- gjgreprllllsui and the other is lions for river and harbor tents. The last general pub- buildings bill was approvedfH| tee 1 day of the last congress and A*e been no bill of this character in ihe present congress. The "pork bar- rel bill" of this congress Is the river and harbor bill. This bill passed the house March 20, last. I voted against gx. Congressman Frear of Wisconsin, Msho led the flght against the bill, called for the ayes and noes. I arose with about twenty others in support of bis demand, but we did not get a rec- ord vote as the rules require that at contained 1a the present bill, Is the ajpropriatton for , KlssfmhiOe Creek, Florida. This stream has figured in river and harbor bills since 1903,'un- jder a project Which provides for a channel 3 feet deep and from' 30 toJBO feet wide from the town of Ktssim- tnee to Fort Dassenger. The limiting depth of this stream now is about 8 feet. Up to this time there has been expended on the project about $30,400. The present bill appropriates $47,000 more for this creek. In 1907 there were eight months When this stream Was practically dry- In 1908 it was dry for Ave months and as one mem- ber in the house suggested, it ought to he insured against fire. This msy seem like an extreme Il- lustration, but It is not The pending bill is full of such useless appropria- tions. ___ Such vicious projects should never receive favorable consideration, and at a time like the present when econ- omy is so greatly needed, I believe that even legitimate and proper proj- ects should not be appropriated for unless a postponement of their consid- eration will result-in loss. t In spite of the legitimate Items of the Mil, I have opposed and shall con- tinue to oppose the entire bill because it Is full of "pork" of the worse kind.

This Arm has established tee record of in- creasing tea size of Its quarters ten- fold In a little less than a year. About a year ago it occupied quarters at 105 N. Wshnsh avenue, amounting to 1,000 square feet. On December 1, 1913, this firm moved to the 4th floor of the Ward building, 12 N. Michigan avenue, where it leased quarters amounting to 4,000) square feet, a Charged With Manslaugh- ter in Goodfellow Accident. war tax bill. I presume present condi- tions warrant that step. But there are two ways of accomplishing the same object. One is by levying more taxes. The other Is by cutting off needless expenditures. If a war tax Is space: with 50 feet frontage on Mich- igan avenue. Within the last month it has more than doubled the size of its quarters in the Ward building, and now has a frontage of 100 feet on Michigan avenue, and nearly 10,- 000 square feet of floor space. Its r 1 quarters now comprise- large and well SO Ilt,LiU UJ J UK* lighted premises on both the fourth and fifth floors of the Ward building, the offices on the two floors being connected by a private elevator. The Chicago Hat Mfg. & Bleaching Co. is now by far the largest concern of its kind In the country, and has de- veloped a business which penetrates to all parts of the United States. The rapid.development of this con- cern has been due to the most ener- getic and widespread advertising andj to the extreme pains taken to serve customers promptly and faithfully. The reblocking and bleaching of hats on the large scale done by this com- pany involves a tremendous amount of detail, especially when the busi- ness covers a multitude of accounts. The rapid'growth of this concern 18 evidenced by the satisfactory service it has performed. ., With the.Increased floor space oc- cupied by this firm there has been, In- stalled additional equipment, compris- ing all the latest dies for reblocking hats and. the necessary machinery for the other details of its operation. In addition to reblocking and dyeing bats, the company has developed a new and important feature and now / It Is reported that James W. bin- lock, chauffeur for Mrs. Rathbone, 710 Central avenue, whose car struck and killed Mrs. George Goodfellow, of 5215 Wlnthrop avenue, Chicago, last week, has been held to the grand jury on a charge of manslaughter. Several wit- nesses testified that after the accident .the chauffeur did not stop the car, bpt this Mulock denies. The fact was brought out at the Inquest that Mulock was the driver of icar which killed 10-year-old Ford liter two years ago, on which occa- sion he was exouorated, but this fact seemed to have had some weight with the coroner's jury and he was ordered held. carries a large stock of ready-made hats and latest shapes for immediate delivery in large or small lots. At the present time it has practically 10,000 of these hats in the latest shapes and materials for Immediate delivery. . The active management of the Chi- cago Hat Mfg. * Bleaching Co. is in charge of Mr. Louis Horvath, vice- president and manager. Mr. Horvath Is peculiarly adapted for the require- ments of this business, for he is a man who looks after all details la a most painstaking way, and maintains the fewest supervision of every de- partment of. tee business. He has been 26 years In this line of work and has had unusual opportunities to ac- quaint himself with the different proc- esses: of manufacturing, ' reblocking, bleaching and dyeing. He was for several years engaged in the Panama bst business in Central America and tee success of his company Is largely one to his expert knowledge of Pan- ama hats. The details of tee felt, beaver and velour hat business he learned In Austria, the largest pro- ducer of velour hats in the world. For a number of years Mr. Horvath was manager of one of the finest men's and women's hat shops in Aus- tria. mti _u = 0* Tdxnt n£w, BVjjjprwTo ^=l statlbankq^evanston j 3°/o INTEREST PAID ON SA Patron Saint of Naples.
