This criticism of congress for appropriating $5,000,000,000 for government expenditures is one of the old stock campaign arguments used by the "outs" against the "ins" forty years ago when the appropriations then made totaled $1,000,000,000. The answer mode then was that this was a billion dollar country, and it was so Tho answer made at this proven. ' time is that this is a five billion dollar country, and Uncle Sam says he has the money to prove the assertion. An United States senate committee is spending its time collecting information as to the expenditure of money in senatorial campaigns, with a view of ousting or refusing seats to senators who have spent large sums of money in their election campaigns. To the uninitiated it would seem that the boys, both Republican and Democrats, who are having a portion 6f this five billion dollar appropriation spent in their districts stand a fair chance of being returned to their seats in the appropriating body. It is not wise to bet too long odds against any congressional candidate who now has a seat in congress. Uncle Sam contributed generously to his campaign fund and wont report to Senator Nyes investigating commit tee. - Peace at any price seems too costly a remedy for war even in the eyes of Gold Star mothers. For not one pacifist was found by Grace Robinaon, newspaperwomen, among the first contingent of Gold Star mothers on their way to their sons graves in France. "When I went to Europe with the first contingent of Gold Star mothers I expected to meet a shipload of pacifists, writes Miss Robinson in Liberty this week. 'What did I find ? Many who wept at the thought of war. Many who cried out bitterly against the studip murdering of valuable men. Many who couldnt discuss internawell-kno- . tional politics, and whose sole philosophy of world conflicts lay in the conviction that they'd 'be ashamed of a son who was yellow. "But not one mother who wanted peace at any price, or thought the United States should lay down its arms inolicdience to the white-fla- g philisiphy.

According to this authority, the amount of electricity produced in c plants for public distribution was leas than in 1928. This is the first time in seven years that such a decrease has been recorded. At the same time, total output of electricity in 1929 was almost 11 per cent greater than in 1928, due to steam plants which showed an increase in output of 18 per cent over the previous year. Such vast progress has been made in recent years in the utilization of coal by our utilities that steam plants can produce power cheaper than hydro plants. This is not to say that the hydro riant is a thing of the past. When a large centralized demand for power exists close to abundant water resources such, plants may always be the most economical. But such a sit uation is rare. Most of our water arc far from large centers of population. The danger of drought, with consequent water shortage, makes erection of expensive stand-b- y plants necessary. And so it goes. Steam is rapidly gaining as the prin cipal source of electricity. hydro-electri- ? - i ELECTRIC ELECTRIC REFRIGERATION SYSTEMATIC ACCUMULATION Small Monthly Payments Small Monthly Payments These steps iq greater home enjoyment, which so many people are taking, are easy steps Theyre easy steps because you may purchase all or any one of these appliances on exceptionally liberal terms and jrou may operate them in your home on a combination rate, which brings you the greatest value ever offered in household comfort and convenience; , of money for your future financial independ- ence can be accomplished through membership in association.
