But it is false economy. yea. more. it is suicidal economy. The gentleman from North Carolina has just said that it is not the policy to make lumpsum appropriations. I cite to him the instance. when we created the Bureau of Naturalization. that upon the suggestion of his own committee hundreds of thousands of dollars. without any limitation whatsoever. were voted to that bureau to provide for its organization. And now when the small sum of $50.000 is asked for we are met with the cry that it would be against the best interests of the Government to grant this without some limitation. There are other functions besides child mortality with which this bureau is invested.
