substantial revenue .from process- |

But where is the money to come from? . Coyle asks, and answers that industry gets back the 30 million | dollars it spends each year on re- | search out of the profits of research, and gets back the money it spends | on safety work out of not having | to pay for loss and disaster.

“Money spent to create wealth is not thrown into the sea,” he argues. “It is planted in fertile soil where | it will bring forth fruit.”

And he adds: “Mongy is not a thing like soil and treeg and cattle. Money is the bookkeeping with | which we do our business. It is always true that you can save money by not deing any business, { but’ that is sacrificing the substance { for the shadow. That is what we shall be doing. if we let our country be lost in an effort to save money.” Turning to the question of who will pay back money borrowed now to save the country, Coyle says: “Posterity, of course, will have to pay all those government bonds. Posterity will also have to pay the utility bonds and railroad bonds and industrial bonds and the life insurance policies and savings bank deposits. To whom? Posterity will have in the bank box all those government bonds and { utility and railroad and industrial | bonds and the life insurance policies and bank books that you leave behind you when you depart. We shall leave a lot of paper promises for our descendants to collect from one another. But if we fail to leave them any physical wealth, the next generation will get no nourishment out of the promises that they inherit.”

To posterity.

By the enactment of the Sail Conservation and Domestic Allotment Act, which included authority for an annual appropriation of not to exceed $500,000,000, Congress provided a new farm program to preserve to the farmers the benefits of fair and adequate prices for the product of their labors.

The passage of the Adjusted

| Compensation Payment Act caused

an increase in payments to veterans for the past year of $1,674,000,000 and will result in further payments estimated at $560,000,000 on this account during the present

| fiscal. year.

To meet the additional requirements of the Treasury on account

of these expenditures the Congress |

was requested to provide sufficient revenue: (1) to make

(2) to defray

new farm program; (1) to amortize over a period of nine years the cost of payment of the adjusted service certificates. The Revenue Act of 1936, enact-

$652,000,000. For the fiscal year 1936 the amount of this revenue will be only $328,000,000, since only the first and second of the quarterly payments of income taxes under this act will .be made to the Treasury within that year. For the same year, however, there will be a nonrecurring revenue of $82,000,000 from the so-called windfall 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 was estimated. 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 ex-

| penditure shown in the budget of

last January of $7,645301,338 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. 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

WISCONSIN NEWS STRIKE IS ENDED

Reporters Return to Work at Higher Pay.

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. The settlement was reached between John Black, manager of the Wisconsin News, and a committee representing the Milwaukee Federated Trades Council.

A statement of policy issued by the management March 31 was the

basis for the settlement. It provides for a five-day week, an $8 daily wage minimum for those with three years newspaper experience, $25 weekly for employes with less experience, paid vacations and dismissal bonuses. The management did not recognize the Guild nor sign a written contract with it as demanded by the strikers when they walked out Feb. 17, Mr. Black said.’ The management, the negotiating committee and the Guild is-

$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 .déficit 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

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 win the number for 1936.

RELIEF NEEDS LESS

‘sued statements expressing satisfaction with the outcome of the strike. The Guild said that under a verbal understanding between the negotiating committee and Black “there will be no discrimination against any members of the guild . and that the duration of the strike is not to be considered a lapse of employment for the purpose of determining vacations, dismissal bonuses, etc.”

old age reserve account will require an initial contribution in 1937 of $265,000,000. For interest’ on the public debt $825,000,000 will be required. 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 expendi-

tures 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

viously 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 $1,500,000,0@0, together with the unexpended balances of previous appropriations, would suf-

It | will be noted that there is a sub- |

| plans and polici = be necessary. The | unemployed are -ontinuing to be. absorbed in indusury, and I believe that there will be a further substan=tial 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 matter that can not be determined for several months. } In estimating, moreover, the amount that would be necessary to care for a reduced number of unem= 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 needed 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 vear, 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 additional funds will amount to less than $500,000,000.
