Reports made public today included Hint of the committee on savings to the savings bank division. This con tained a criticism of the United States treasury and postoffice departments for their proirasals for enlarging the functions of the government as a "savings banker." "The treasury department," the 're port rend, "continues to use many of Its war time arguments for selling Its savings securities. The result has been both costly to tax payers and ridiculous as to effect when measured either by amount of sales or the extent to which thrift has been promoted. "Lately the postal authorities have sought to inject the government into the banking uiislness by departing still further from the original postal sav ings plan. In addition to withdrawing savings deposits from the community of origin they seek to add features which ure not only competitive but subsidized by tax exemption. "Our opposition to both schemes Is based not only upon the extravagance of any bureaucratic activity anil the failure of the government to set proper example in the practice of thrift, but upon the even more impor tant ground that In order to perpetuate their positions, the government's em ployes will continue to advance pro jects which are paternalistic and con trary to the best interests of the public welfare." The committee on federal exchange reporting to the same division, com mended the adoption of a national budget system and announced it had favored an amendment to the federal constitution So that incomes "from whatever source derived," shall be tax able by both national and state author ities and reduction of public expendi tures "especially through placing all governmental bodies upon the same basis of reduced expenditures as ap plies to all citizens without exception.

C. Cato an allowance Of $95 to make up the county exhibit, which was generally characterized at the state fair as one worth $5000 to $10,000 and which has done more to put the Rogue River valloy and Jackson coun ty on the map than all other things for years past.
