BUDGET LAW
CONDEMNED
BY DAWES
Director of Budget Says Might
As Well Tunnel Pikes Peak
With Toothpick Law Must
Be Strengthened and Busi
ness Men Must Be Extended
& Aid.
WASHINGTON, Juno 23. Charles
G. Dawes of Chicago, chosen by Presi
dent Harding to head tho now' govern
ment budget system, announced after
a conference with the president today
that ho would call on a number of
experienced business men to serve on
the budget bureau without pay be
cause he conBldored tho staff provided
by congress wholly inadequate.
Mr. Dawes declared In a statement
' that if the budgot system was to be a
success reliance must bo placed on
"something else than tho pitiful ma
chinery provided by law.
"One might as well be handed a
toothpick," ho said, "with which to
tunnel Pike's Poak."
General Dawes declared lie would
nk that Brigadier General George
Van Moseley, former assistant chief
of staff in General Pershing's head
quarters in Fiance and Colonel Henry
Smither, former assistant chief of
staff in the service of supply bo as
signed to the bureau. He is said to
have asked his business associate,
William T. Abbott of Chicago, to serve
as acting assistant director temporar
ily: Mr. Dawes in his statement said:
,"We all know tho doBperate condi
tion of the business of the country at
present -Industrial agricultural and
commercial, and that it Is Staggering
under a tremendous burden of taxa
tion from which it must be relloved if
It is to properly revive.''
For the budgot. work, which he
termed a "collossal task," Mr. Dawes
said congress had appropriated $223,
000, but that It was provided that the
directors assistants In each depart
ment should be appointed by the cab
inet head and that the director was
allowed to select four employes at
riot more than $6,000 each. Sum
ming up these congressional provis
ions, Dawes remarked: .
"One might as well bo handed a
toothpick with which to tunnel Pike's
Peak."
Patriotic service similar to - that
offered by the govornmont officials
and citizens during the world war
was 'necessary to make the budget
work and its economic purposes a
success.
. "On or before August 1, I shall ask
the president to Invite a number of
leading American business men to
come to Washington to servo without
compensation in an advisory capac
ity to the budget bureau, he said.
"As soon as possible, pending the
organization of my office and before
August 1, I will call together on
masse all the bureau chiefs of the
departments and their assistants in
Washington and explain my purposes
for the accomplishment of this work
by December 1."
"No penalty can bo too severe or
too inexorably pressed," he added,
"should opposition dovelop among
bureau chiefs or others."
Mr. Dawes Bald he expected to re
tire from the directorship in Decem
ber after the first budget had been
presented to congress.

BONUS BILL
BY SENATOR
Borah Declares Proposal in
Present Form Discreditable
to Republican Party Mc-
Cumber of North Dakota
Advocates Bill and Flays
Profiteers.
WASHINGTON, June 23 An attack
on the service men's bonus bill was
begun In thasenate today . by Senator
Borah, republican, Idaho. Ho said the
proposal .was discreditable to the re
publican party in its present form.
WASHINGTON, Juno 23. War time
"profiteering pirates" were flayed in
tho senate today by Senator McCum
ber, republican, North Dakota, in an
address advocating his bill for giving
adjusted compensation to former ser
vice men. Tho measure, reported fa
vorably by the finance committee,
would be an act not only of gratitude
but of justice, ho said.
He estimated that 80 per cent of
former service men would exorcise
their option of the five plans indorsed
by the American Legion by taking the
twenty year certificates, which, he
said, would really give service men
forty per cent more than tho cash op
tion. If the other 20 per cent should
take cash, Senator McCumber said the
bill would not entail an unnuul burden
upon the government of more than
$200,000,000 dollars until 1943.
"Let a future congress see to it that
In any future war industrial slacking
and profiteering will be visited with
as heavy a penalty as draft evasion or
desertion," he demanded.
Senator McCumber said the war
time administration started out with
the "determination to satisfy the de
mands of both organized capital and
organized labor and leave the public to
foot the bill, which it has done and
will contlnuo to do, in exorbitant taxes
and extortionate prices for many,
many years to come."
PORTLAND, Ore., Juno 23. Har
rls Barton, an oiler on the steamer
Montague, underwent emergency
treatment in the city hospital, early
today, following an attack made on
him and Edward Lund, a seaman of
the same vessel by men said by the
police to have been marine strikers.
Barton sustained a bad cut under one
oye. Lund said ho had been hit on
the chost with a rock. Tho attack
occurred near the Montague's moor
ing dock. No arrests were mado.
JAPAN SAYS HAYASH
"Friendship with the United
States,' declared the ambassador, "Is
an absolute necessity for Japan, not
only politically, but also commercially
for trade relations with the United
States is one of our greatest assets."
The ambassador continued by de
claring naval disarmament would be
an Inestimable boon for the world and
repeating the conviction that the Jap
anese government was ready to dis
cuss disarmament and come to an ar
rangement with France, Great Brit
ain and the United States.

But London Times Declares
Sending More Troops to Ire
land Dashes Hopes of Re
conciliation No Honesty in
British Politics.
LONDON, June 23. Relief over the
sufe return of King George and Queen
Mary from Bolfast was expressed by
this morning's newspapers, which also
voiced appreciation of their courage
in making tho trip to the Irish city to
open the Ulster parliament. Editorials
warmly approved the' king's address,
ospeclally his plea that the Irish ror
give and forgot and join in making the
land they love a new era of eace, con
tentment and good will.
The Daily News, however, strongly
criticized the government which fram
ed tho speech for "simultaneously
making a mockery and reproach of
theso moving words," by its decision
to send more troops to south Ireland.
The London Times denounced the
government for "dashing all hopes by
decreeing intensified warfare in Ire
land to the bitter end." It accused
the government of playing the game
with the king, who was said to have
done all he could.
DUBLIN, June -23. Commenting
upon tho address of King George at
the opening of Ulster parliament at
Belfast yesterday, the Irish Times said
this morning:
"If southern Irishmen will' allow
thomsolvos to think soberly wo may
hope yesterday's events at Belfast will
begin immediately to Improvo the
prospects of peace. Henceforward no
Irishman who Is not a fool or a fanatic
can Ignore the significance of tho nor
thern parliament."
The Irish independent said:,
"Division In Ireland Is fostered by
Great Britain for her own ends. If
there was honesty in British politics,
if members of tho king's cabinet de
sired to apply tho principle of states
manship and not force a remedy, strife
would be ended and discontent would
be allayed In Ireland."
