SAVINGS IN "40 BUDGET CALLED ‘SUBSTANTIAL’

Financial Future Brighter; Deery Predicts They will Exceed Expectations. -

° By RICHARD LEWIS

Although City Hall will carry the 11 burden of the $300,000 municiral deficit over to next year, the City’s financial future, has bright-. ened considerably with the prospect of a substantial saving in this year’s budget. City Controller James E. Deery yesterday said the amount of the saving cannot be computed until efter December bills are paid. He predicted, however, that the savings would be “above expectations.”

Late last month, the Controller §ssued an order that all City Department heads were to economize #s much as possible without cur- - tailing the operation of services.

Terms Saving Substantial’

«The Department heads have complied with the. order,” he said, “and it looks as though we'll have a fairly substantial saving this

WILLKIE RETURN TOELWOOD NO. 1 INDIANA STORY

Editors Designate Draft as] No. 2 and Republican Victory as No. 3.

By LEONARD. CASTLE United Press Staff Correspondent Wendell L. Willkie’s return to! his native’ Elwood, Ind., last Aug. 17 to accept formally the Republican Presidential nomination was the most important Indiana news story of 1940, editors of United Press newspapers decided in a poll released today. Mr. Willkie’s Elwood speech received a comfortable margin in the balloting but the No. 2 story— registration of Indiana’s youth for selective service—also came in for a heavy vote. : As was to be expected in this po-litically-minded state, four other political stories other than Willkie were listed among the 10 top stories of the year.

Willkie Heads List

Selections of the editors in order were: 1. Return of Wendell L. Willkie to Elwood. 2. Registration of Indiana’s youth between the ages of 21 and 35; drawing.of the order numbers; and induction of the first contingent of draftees into the nation’s armed forces. = 3, Victory of the state Republican ticket, except for Gubernatorial Candidate Glen R.
