SECRETARY sHAW's VIEWS.
The Treasury Deficit Can Be Speedily
Turned Into a Sur
plus

Originally the secretary OF the treas
airy estimated the deficit for the cur
rent fiscal year. OF which but two
months remain, al $4,000 900, and
later II was argued that there might 10
40 deficit But II is now held that the
deficiency will considerably exceed the
original estimate AT this moment il
amounts TO about S30,000.0OO. as
against a surplus OF $4,000 600 at the
corresponding time OF the previous fs-
al year.
Secretary Shaw thinks. states the
chicago Record Herald. that the final
balance sheet fcT the twelvemonth will
show deficit Of about s25 600 0O0 and
The difference between that figure and
his first estimate he regards as OF
small moment Several millions NAV
be a tremendous amount 10 an indi-
yidual, he says. but TO a grea, and
/ prosperous nation il IS not nearly so
awe-inspiring 10 read that the treasury

, Is perfectly true but even a great ma
ton will inevitably stop 70 inquire
into the causes Of a growing deficit
and the proper way OF arresting that
tendency
Now there has been no falling OF in

In expenditures. the increase amount
Ing TO about S35 600 900 again as CON-
pared with last year. Unusual demands
for naval deficiencies which. thanks
TO a new provision OF law. cannot be
repeated next year-account for no
small part Of the increase.
Secretary Shaw cheerfully remarks
that congress can turn the deficit into
a surplus whenever it pleases." IN

TO the revenue without readjusting the
tarif schedules that are no longer
needed for protective purposes will not
seem an easy one to congress. The
confirmed stand -patters will resist re-
adjustment while consumers will OBJ.

DEFICIT IN THE TREASURY.
Present High Schedules instrumental
in Cutting Down Govern
ment Income.

on the closing day Of the last session
Of congress Senator Allison had some
agreeably reassuring words 70 offer as
to the state OF the nations finances.
Admitting that the appropriations for
the next fiscal year. aggregating in
round numbers Ss1S.000,0O0 were con-
siderably in excess OF those of the pre-
vious year, says the Chicago News. be
asserted that there was no cause for
apprehending a serious deficit II ia
true that the estimated revenues for
the next year are Only s726. 100000. but
on the theory that certain appropria-
tons. amounting in all TO about $751;.
GOO 900, are not really a charge upon
the revenues, Senator Allison comput-
ed that the governments expenditures
would be less than its income. leaving
a surplus of a few million dollars.
AS not infrequently happens in such
cases. IL now becomes evident that Sen
ator Allison's calculations which
looked so well on paper are not being
borne out by the facts. Yesterdays
dispatches from Washington report
that deficit Of sS5,OoO,O00 Is already
practically assured and that in spite Of
the economies practiced by congress II
Is growing daily
Now that they are confronted with
the problem OF an almost certain de-
felt the question what the leaders 81
the congressional majority propose to
do about IL promises 10 be one OF the
most interesting that will be raised at
the next session Of congress. In spite
Of all efforts at economy government
expenditures continue TO grow rapidly
and even If there is no further increase
they are already in excess Of the reve-
nues. way OF meeting this increased
outlay must be found and unless the
government Is 10 meet it by seeking
larger receipts from the internal reve-
nues il apparently must take the &C
ton which some republican leaders al
ready admit to be necessary on ths
tariff. A proposition 10 reduce tbs
tariff with view TO increasing impor-
lations and thus bringing In more reve-
nue. is likely to be one of the questions
most debated at the next session. That
the present high schedules are posi-
lively instrumental in cutting down
the governments income would be q
painful admission tor the stand-patters
Of the republican rarity to make. but
Judging from present indications they
may soon have no other alternative.
