The increase is $445.000. and the reason for that increase is that every third year they are entitled to a new limb. and the coming year is the third year. Now. public buildings are increasing. and for assistant custodians and janitors. for taking care of public buildings. we make an increase of $35.000. which on inquiry I believe will probably better care for buildings in that respect than they are being cared for now. For the enforcement of the Chinese exclusion act we recommend an increase of $25.000. I am not criticising the amount appropriated this year. I am quite sure that the gentleman in charge of the bill last session recommended what he thought was necessary and sufficient. and perhaps it is. but under the new treaty and under the disposition of Chinese to come in along our northern and southern borders. we can properly limit their coming under the law. and it was the opinion of your committee.
