MAYOR STAYS SILENT
AS TO APPOINTMENTS
WA8HINOTON. ,Dec. 4 Retire
ment of liberty bonds by the treasury
haa begun. Thin was revealed today
In the annual report of the treasury
department for the fiscal year end
ing June 30, 1918.
A total of 1260,000.000 of the first.
second and third bond Issues have
been bought back by the treasury on
Nov. 1. Thla does not represent Ulle
five per cent of each Jmtft which
under the liberty loan ant the treas
ury la permitted to buy back each
year.
It waa Indicated that after thin year
the full five per cent of each Issue
would be retired. This will eliminate
the piling upttf a great Kinking fund.
reduce the Interest payment Tinnual
ly and permit of retirement of all
bond on their maturity date, 20 years
hence. ,
1'rgea War Saving Continue.
Secretary McAdoo estimates that In
the fiscal year ending June 30, 1819,
public debt redemption will aggre
gate 1685.000,000. The grand total
of expenditures for the year la estl
mated at 127.718.128.000. which la ap
proximately 17.000,000.000 more than
the eatlmated total receipts. The re
cent treasury announcement of a
ttfth war loan therefore, wan accept
ed to mean that the next loan, sched
uled for early In April, 1819, would
toe for IS, 000,000,000. This belief
waa baaed on calculations of further
reduction In expenditures, officials
said.
In the report, the secretary strong
ly urges a continuation of the .war
savings campaign as a peace time
measure of thrift. He estimates that
the 1919 aeries of savings stamps wl)n cnncurre,10e by
anouia oring im iw , government tho 0fficeg f f,.e
more than l,260.oooo.ooi, or ss per
cent more than during the, last year,
iilyrrrine Process Reported.
Discovery and development of a
process of producing glycerine syn
thetically by fermentation of sugar
Is disclosed by the report. The dis
covery was made by chemists attach
ed to the bureau of Internal revenue
and afforded the nssurance that dur
ing the latter part of the war there
would not be a shortage of glycerine
aupply for munitions manufacture.. .
The financial transformation from
peace to war was accomplished, Mc
Adoo declared, without "shock or fi
nancial disturbance of any kind."
The credit and business structure of
the nation remains sound and strong.
In this connection the report points
out that:
, "It must not be regarded that en
tire amounts expended during 1 9 1 T
and 191 hnve been permanently ab
S knrbed.- A large per cent represents
productive Investment It will re
quire several months to give an ac
curate estimate of capital outlays, sal
vage and expenditures of a perma
nent character during the war."
Cash Outgo Continues.
. Aa to future expenditures the re
. port says there Is no hint of Immedi
ate dlmunltlon In the cash out-go
from the treasury. The prediction is
made that the present high monthly
disbursements likely will continue un-

MA RION GRAND JURY COMMENDS
MU RPHY PUTS BLAME ON OTHERS
t t
Warden C. A. Murphy is -commended
in a report made by the Marion
county grand jury, after a long study
of penitentiary conditions and blame
f6r trouble at the institution Is plac
ed upon the governor and parole of
ficer Keller. Indictments in connec
tion with the parole selling scandal
have been returned it is said but they
'have not been made known yet.
In its report the grand Jury said In
part :
'On the whole, the administration
of the present warden has been suc
cessful, efficient and economical, in
sofar as he has had control of affairs.
However, there are many matters
which he has not been allowed to con
trol, resulting in needless expense, de
creased efficiency and. in some in
stances. Injustice to prisoners.
"During his incumbency, as well as
during the incumbency of Warden
Hurry p. Minto and J. W. Mint", the
governor has not permitted tm? war
Jden to have full control of the prison,
or such control as it gives to the heads
jof the various other state Institutions,
j Indicating tho appointment of
subordinates, requiring the warden to
jretatn employes who were either In
efficient or disloyal to the warden,
raising the pay of employes hostile to
the warden over the warden's potest,,
as -well as refusing to raise the pay of
employes who were competent and
;Who were loyal to the warden, he has
seriously hampered every warden and
: undermined his authority
J "In addition to this, his personal
dictation of business matters and hi
appointment and retention of a parole
officer who personally and individu
ally has done more to undermine prb
; on discipline and general harmony
Mhan any other agency, have for neurly
four years last past been target v re
sponsible for all the turmoil. NtrifV .
