A specinl meeting of the faculty collo quiam was held in Guild hall Wednesday at 4 o’clock, to hear Congressman W. C. Hawley discuss informally the sub ject of “National Budget Making.” Mr. Hawley’s talk was the result of a question submitted by faculty mem bers last spring '‘h regard to the pos sible advantny budget system over the present I il system employed by the United Sl.iics. Doctor Schafer went to Salem last spring to discuss the question with Mr. Hawley, and today’s meeting is one out come of that trip. Mr. Hawley in opening the discussion, made a summarizing statement of the nature and history of the budget system, which he says is an old one. In ancient times poor financial systems corrupted the public, and the army, and civil ser vice officers went unpaid. .So Europe adopted the budget system, and in the adoption, two distinct aims were ap parent, namely, to avoid corruption and to separate the public nnd the private purses, which under the old plan had been virtually one. The speaker then explained his atti tude toward the question. “I am sup posed,” he said, "to take the negative side of this argument. But understand me—I tiling tile plan in itself a commend able one, and it has been successful to a certain extent.” According to Mr. Hawley, the plan is I fh general this: The executive body first Go Home-Turkey Day Thanksgiving, Nov. 30th.

SOUTHERN PACIFIC LINES determines the sources, the amounts and the expenditures of revenue, trying to t-t.ike a balance between the sources and expenditures. Then the imports are classified alphabetically, and each item is put through a questioning as to how much is imported, its necessity, how much taxation is possible without stop- ‘ ping the importation, and similar points. The conclusions reached determine whether or not the item shall be put on the tariff list. The idea the committee works on is to get the largest amount of revenue possible without hindering importation. Citing instances of state sources of revenue, such as the inheritance tax, and the tax on business occupations, Mr. Hawley said, “I believe the government is getting into the tax Tights of state.” He believes a change in the financial management of the country is desirable, but thinks such a change should be one favorable to the whole country. To make the budget plan beneficial he considers a complete reorganization of the national system necessary. The cabinet would have to have power to levy taxes as well as dispensing with the money received. To place such a power in their hands would increase the authority of the executive and minimize that of the legislative. Furthermore, the cabinet officers would have to be reformed, for they are more expensive than congress. “They follow the script ural injunction, nnd ask largely,” Mr. Hawley said. That must be changed if the system is to be economical and effi cient in the United States. Always ask ing for more than is necessary, yet all the short comings fall on congress. “I favor the budget system, nnd can see a great deal for it, and very little to criticize, generally. But the funda mental question is whether or not we shall attempt the constitutional amend ment necessary to put tax levying power in the hands of the cabinet.” OREGON SOCCER TEAM FUMES TODAY Return Match Will Be Held in Corvallis at 10 O’clock on Lower Campus. English Game Is Arousing Much Interes; Thirty at Mon day’s Turnout. After a week of hard practicing the soccer team left for CoTvallis at 7:35 this morning to meet O. A. C. in a re turn game. The contest is slated for 10:00 o’clock on the lower campus. Last week’s game brought out the fact that the Varsity was short of wind and I unable to keep up a fast pace for two j 35 minute halfs. To correct this Coach > Dyment has been keeping the squad trasy every night until darkness made further play impossible. Wednesday and Thursday games weTe held between the Blues and Corinthians, or putting it plainly, the first team and scrubs. The scrubs kept the Blues on the run most of the time although the first team was handicapped by having to go uphill. Wednesday the Blues won 4-1 aud last night the score was 2-2. Since the encounter with the Aggies, interest in the English game has taken a firm hold on the students. Monday 30 were out, the largest turnout of the season. The Leslie brothers both of whom have played before showed fine form in handling the ball, and with a lit tle practice would make the regulars rustle to keep their jobs. Captain Campbell is not figuring on winning from the Aggies so easily again. Now that freshmen football is over, Lodell will be able to take care of one of the fullback positions. He was a member of the championship JeffeTSon high team a couple of seasons ago and possesses a tremendous kick. Besides Lodell two or three more of the rooks are soccer sharks and may be seen in action tomorrow. The same lineup will undoubtedly start for Oregon that performed here. By arrangement with O. A. C. two substi tutions may be made during the contest. The sixteen men making the trip include, Kennon, Capt. Campbell, McDonald, W. Sheehy, Heywood, Hedges, Hartley, J. Sheehy, Tuerck, Nelson, Fox, Sengstake, Houston, Hinson, Kelleher and Hasel tine. The next game after Saturday is with Multnomah to be played on the local grounds Thanksgiving Day.
