Democratic Congress Accused of record waste in spending
Washington May 14. A Democratic congressman denounces the administration for increased government employes and higher salaries, claiming 30,000 new positions and billions in appropriations since 1913, contrasting promises of economy with actual growth in offices and taxes. He cites 1915 to 1921 figures, faults party fidelity, and urges retrenchment and abolishment of useless offices.
