Clialiman C. K. (hlttendeii. of tho

and after careful study and consider

ing Just what cuts will have to bo
made to got them down to the esti

"We've got to go at this thing buld-
lj said he, "und agree to wipe out
with one fell swoop a whole lot of

all that time tho situation confronting

time has never been cquulled. Items
that aio absolutely nnd essentially

the upptopriatlou for tho vailous de
