| BY United Press | | WASHINGTON, Sept. 2.— | Following is the complete statement by President Roosevelt on the summation of the 1937 budget: Continuing the practice inaugu- | rated last year, the attached sumi mation revises the budget for the fiscal year 1937 by reflecting the changes affecting the estimates of revenues and expenditures which have occurred since the 1937 budget | was transmitted to Congress .in January 1936. Two outstanding events have | taken place since that time which have materially affected the receipts: and expenditures of the i government. The first of these was the decision of the Supreme Court de-| claring ' the Agricultural Adjustment Act unconstitutional, as a re- | sult of which the government lost substantial revenue from processing taxes.

REVIEW OF 1936
The total receipts amounted to $4,115,956,615 against the estimate in the 1937 budget of $4,410,793,946, a net decrease of $294,837,331. After taking into consideration the loss in processing ‘taxes of $451,000,000, receipts from other sources amounted to $157,000,000 more than : i was estimated. : Si Total receipts showed a net increase of $316,000,000 over those for 1935, and receipts from sources
other than processing taxes showed an increase over 1935 of $760,000,000. The total expenditures of the government for the fiscal year ended: June 30, 1936, amounted to $8,879,798,258. The ‘estimated expenditure shown in the budget of last January of $7,645,301,338 did not, of course, include $1,674,000,000 for adjusted compensation payments. Except for these payments the expenditures would have been about $439,000,000 less {than the January estimate. i The deficit for the year amounted to $4,763,841,642, which included $403,240,150 for statutory debt retirement. Deducting this amount leaves a net deficit of $4,360,601,491. The estimated net deficit as shown in (the budget of last January was
$2,682,482,392. Had it not been for the invalidation of processing taxes and the passage of the Adjusted Compensation Payment Act, the net deficit would have been less than the January estimate by more than $400,000,000. The public debt increased during the year $5,077,650,869, but in that time the balance of cash in the general fund of the Treasury likewise showed an increase of $840,164,664.
FORECAST FOR 1937
Total receipts in the fiscal year 1937 are now estimated at $5,665,839,000, a net increase of $12,000,000 over the amount of the 1937 budget estimate. The estimated increases in general revenue more than offset the revenue losses, due in part to the invalidation of the special taxes levied under the provision of the Agricultural Adjustment and Bituminous Coal Conservation Acts, and in part to the method finally adopted for collecting taxes under the Social Security Act which will defer to the fiscal year 1938 the collection of a portion of these taxes. The losses from these causes amount to $668,000,000, which are slightly more than offset by the following estimated increases in
revenue: $410,000,000 (including $82,-
000,000 from the windfall taxes) resulting from the revenue act of 1936; $33,000,000 from delayed collections of taxes on carriers and their employes, and $237,000,000
| constituting an upward revision ‘of
revenue estimates due chiefly to improvement in business conditions. The expenditure requirements for the fiscal year 1937 are now estimated at $7,762,835,300, which includes $560,000,000 to complete the payments of adjusted compensation to veterans and $580,000,000 for statutory debt retirement. Some of .the principal items included in the expenditure requirements are as follows: The Agricultural Adjustment Administration will require $585,000,000 and the Civilian Conservation Corps: $300,000,000. The requirements of the Agricultural Adjustment. Administration will be greater for 1937 than for 1936 due to the interruption of that program in the past year by the Supreme Court decision and the consequent postponement of expenditures. The expenditures for the Civilian Conservation Corps for 1937 will be less than those for 1936 due to the reduction made in the number of enrollees as compared with the number for 1936.

By United Press . ‘ MILWAUKEE, Sept. 2—American Newspaper Guild members who have been on strike for seven months at the Hearst-owned Wisconsin News returned to their jobs today under a settlement giving them shorter working hours and higher pay, but not Guild recognition and a written contract which they demanded.

In view of the general improvement in business conditions, it is estimated that there will be required a net amount of $1,835,000,000 for recovery and relief, an amount materially less than that for the fiscal year 1936. The estimated expenditures for the other establishments are '$448,986,000 greater than the expenditures for 1936, due principally to the development of the regular annual public works program and to increased expenditures for national defense. The . estimated deficit for 1937 is $2,096,996,300, which includes $580,000,000 for statutory debt retirement and $560,000,000 for further 'payments under the Adjusted Compensation Payment Act. Deducting the amount of the statutory debt retirement leaves a net deficit of $1,516,996,300. This does not mean that there will be an increase in the public debt of this amount for the reason that it is contemplated during the year to reduce the working balance of the general fund by approximately $1,100,000,000.

CITES EARLIER MESSAGE
In my message to Congress on March 18, 1936, requesting an appropriation of $1,500,000,000 for relief of unemployment, I stated that that request, together with those previously submitted to the Congress to provide for the Civilian Conservation Corps and certain public works would, if acted upon favorably by the Congress, give security during the next fiscal year to those most in need, on condition, however, that private employers hire many of those now on relief rolls. I further stated that should industry co-operatively achieve the goal of re-employment, the appropriation of $1,500,000,000, together with the unexpended balances of previous appropriations, would suffice to carry the Federal works pro-
and that only if industry failed to reduce substantially the number of those now out of work would an= other approp.‘ation and further plans and polici = be necessary. The unemployed are continuing to be absorbed®in indusury, and I believe that there will be a further substantial increase of such employment . during the coming months. Whether it will be sufficient to permit such a reduction in work relief rolls as will bring them within the amount appropriated by Congress is a mat= ter that can not be determined for
In estimating, moreover, the amount that would be necessary to care for a reduced number of unems= ployed during the current fiscal year, no account could bs taken of the serious drought which has affected large sections of our country. To relieve this serious situation in the drought areas will require the expenditure of substantial amounts from the emergency relief approprie ation, although, the total amount that will be negded for this purpose can not be determined at this time, Another survey of the unemploy=
{ ment problem and the amount ree" { quired for drought relief will be | made early in the coming calendar | year, and if additional appropriations for these purposes are found necessary, the amounts expended therefrom will, of course, increase the estimated expenditures shown in this summation. It is confidently expected that any such requests for
than $500,000,000.
