Congress added $64,120,000 to the pen¬

advances in pay to postal employees,
while the pension increase was absorb¬
ed in part by increased pensions.

great annual supply bills, as given by
Mr. Good, was $2,212,126,298, as fol¬
lows:
Postoffice, $462,575,190; sundry civil,
$437,106,806; naval, $433,279,574; army,
$392,558,365; pensions, $279,150,000;

Columbia, $18,373,004; rivers and har¬
bors, $12,400,000; Indian, $10,040,655;
diplomatic and consular, $9,218,537;
military academy, $2,142,212.
In addition to these bils, permanent
appropriations, annual expenditures
authorized by congress for stated pe¬
riods, amounted to $1,363,768,980, of
which $ 980 , 000,000 is for interest on
the public debt and $ 260 , 800,000 for the
sinking fund. Miscellaneous appropri¬
ations included $725,000,000 by the
transportation act, of which $300,000,
000 is to be used as loans to the rail¬
roads for a period of 15 years. Minor
miscellaneous appropriations, with the
deficiencies brought the total appro¬
priations to $4,859,890,327.
Mr. Good charged off $2,558.96S,400
of the appropriations as a direct war
“hang over," the sum including the
funds provided for the railroads, for the
interest on the public debt, the pay¬
ment to the sinking fund and $293,168,-
400 appropriated for re-education, hos¬
pital treatment and insurance pay¬
ments for veterans of the world war.
The army and navy got $855,956,962 for
