‘CRIPPLED' U, $, TREASURY GETS I 300 MILLIONS War Debts, Income Taxes Won’t Help Slice •Huge Deficit. BY THOMAS L. STOKES United Press Stiff Correjpondrnt WASHINGTON, June 13.—The depleted federal treasury was being replenished today to the extent of about $300,000,000 by income tax returns and payments from foreign countries on their war debts. Despite these receipts, however, the government will close its fiscal year on June 30 with a deficit of nearly a billion dollars. The deficit now is $1,095,000,000.

Thousands of big and little checks pouring into collectors’ offices represented the second installment of ;!931 income taxes. These payments are not expected to run much over $200,000,000 with total June collections aggregating about $290,000,000. June last year brought $526,443,000 to the treasury in income taxes. Thirteen foreign governments at the same time were making quarterly payments of $111,835,000 In interest and principal on their war debts of $11,000,000,000. The payments of Srincipal, totaling $19,000,000, must e applied to reduction of this country’s public debt. The rest goes Into the treasury’s general fund.
