caused by the
e o n c u ssion of
conflicting opin

get scientists.
The main "con
flict was over
the $4,000,000,000 lump sum relief ap
propriation. The budget advisers arc
supposed to have contested generally
against a lump sum. They thought
somo general breakdown of Its pro
posed use should be offered.
The only reason one was not of
fered was because the emergency re
lief agencies declined to submit
es'lmatea to the budact bureau. Some
agencies (the AAA particularly) re
plied that they could not tell of their
spending In advance. Others profess
ed ignorance as to what Mr. Roose
velt was goin$ to do about their op
erations next yeor.
There was nothing left to do ex
cept to take a rough lump sum guess
and It will have to stand until Mr
" Roosevelt decides exactly what he is
going to do about each emergency
bureau.
The fault of the lump sum system
la not the political one which con
gress l'i howling about. Budgeteers
did not even consider the possibility
that congress might call Mr. Roose
velt a dictator for trying to get all
that money without strings on It.
What perturbed them was the fact j
'that the emergency agencies have beeni
getting away with budget murder j
from the start. These agencies nave
been subject to no control except
review by Comptroller McCarl, who
Is so overloaded with work that he
may be months catching up. Callers
at the comptroller's office have not
iced piles of expenditure records on
the floor occasionally, there being no
room for them on the desks. By the
time McCarl catches up slips made
by the emergency agencies, the money
has long since been spent.
The president started to control
this loose system last spring. He is
sued an executive order requiring
emergency agencies to get McCarl's
approval for expenditures In advance.

wrote that In June, after congress

The one heoffered last week was
only an estimated budget. Congress
now will consider the estimates and
make appropriation. eliminating
some and adding others. The real
budget will come Just before the next
fiscal year starts July 1.
You can s?e what result thia will
