Sense of Values Has Departed.
_j*._
By CARTER GLASS. Former Secretary of the Treasury.
1 ■ I Ml I ■■ w ■ m. m -- , - ■ ■ - - _ __
I am heartily in favor of a budget system. With*
out effective control over governmental expenditures
and limitation of them to the government’s income we
shall bring down upon our heads the splendid structure
which our fathers have built and which we have pre
served.
The very success (which you will pardon me if 1
call brilliant) with which the treasury has financed the
stupendous requirements imposed upon America by the
great war may become a menace. All sense of values
seems to have departed from among us. The depart
merits, bureaus and boards, all mspirea oy a uiuaaoie eninusiasm ror tneir
work, but some by a less laudable instinct to magnify its importance and
incidentally their own, bombard the committees of congress with projects,
some more or less meritorious, some of no merit whatever, but all con
wived in sublime indifference to the fact that the great business of gov
ernment is being run at a loss and that, each one of these projects increases
the deficit of the government, and consequently the burden to be thrown
upon the great body of people, whether the deficit be met by increasing
taxes or by floating additional loans.
The congress votes with a lavish hand stupendous sums conceived in
i a magnificent spirit of generosity with a view to the enhancement of the
prestige of the nation, or for the benefit of this or that element in the
community. This it does upon the advice of the committee of congress
charged with the business of caring for such special interests. Then,
speaking through the great committee on appropriations, it pursues a'
policy of restriction with relation to the expenditures of some of the de
partments of the government which makes it impossible for those depart
(ments to conduct the vast affairs imposed upon them with efficiency and
economy. ___
