BUILDING PLAN PUSHED Low Prices to Make Extensive Construction Program Possible. (By Assocated Press) WASHINGTON, Nov. 12. - The plan of the House appropriations committee to curtail government expenses andrat the same time al- low funds for public bulding pro- grams to decrease unemployment was outlined today by Chairman Wood as the group began formu- lating supply bills for the next fis- cal year.E "The total appropriations for the coming fiscal year," Wood said, "should be lower than for the pres- ent period provided there are no extraordinary items which an elab- orate public building program might upset." The total for this year was $4,- 872,401,096, including over $800,000, 000 for the postal service. The ag- gregate for the new fiscal year should be less, Wood said. Will Save Money. "We expect to save money this year," Chairman Wood said. "The appropriations committee will hew pretty close to the line. We expect to keep expenditures below the budget estimate as we always have done." Woods said, "This is a good time for the government to push. -its public buildings program," and ad- ded, "there may be some substan- tial outlay for new projects." "With the present prices of build- ing materials," he continmed,' "many of the existing projects will cost less than the amount author- ized by Congress. In addition to being able to procure building ma- terials at lownprices now, the gov- ernment will be able to provide employment for many men, there- by contributing to relief of the ex- isting economic conditions." May Issue Bonds. In answer to a question, Wood said the treasury might resort to issuance of short term bonds to en- able the government to carry for- ward a public building program without increasing taxes. He noted the present interest rate would be advantageous for the government to borrow money in this manner, whereas an increase in taxation by elimination of the one per cent in tax reduction granted last year by Congress would have an ude- sirable effect on business.

To quote part of the "Editor and ?ublisher" version, Dale "spit in the ye of every public official in Mun- ie, whose dealings were the slight- st bit crooked" and in doing so he reated a strife between corruption and the power of the press which inally ended in a series of con- empt suits. The New York World, Attracted by the valiant battle which Dale was fighting with h3 poor little weekly newspaper, gave him financial support in his casei through subscription and enabled him to overcome one of the bitter- est oppositions in journalistic his- tory. Dale's case was taken to the supreme court and the judge who sentenced him came within three votes of impeachment. Other Speakers Name. Last year Dale was elected mayor of Muncie by an overwhelming ma- jority and his first act of office was to dismiss the entire police force which had caused him such untold grief and had opposed him through- out his fight against corruption.

ALLEN EXECU "Rollo's Wild Oat, sentation on Play Pr (By Assocjated Prrss) GENEVA, Switzerland, Nov. 12.- Delegates to the League of Nations' preparatory disarmament commis- sion continued deadlocked today on a plan of limiting land and air armaments. Hugh S. Gibson, American reprc- sentative, in reiterating the opposi- tion of the United States to limita- tion by fixing a budget of expendia tures, suggested if the other pow- ers wished to draw up a treaty based on budgetary limitations while leaving the United States free to use her own method of direct limitation with full publicity, the plan would be acceptable to the United States. Spokesmen for several nations made friendly references to the American compromise plan today, although the French delegate, Massigli, was very critical of it, contending budgetaryslimitation, while not perfect, was the best available method of achieving lim- itation.
