Be OF GOOD CHEER
Is Message to Country From
Secretary Shaw.
PROSPERITY UNB0UNDED
Head of Treasury Says Money Short
ace, Car shortage and Other
Subjects of Complaint is
Due to Good Times.

There is no occasion for alarm.
Our only anxiety need be lest We fail
Of facilities to properly garner, store,
transport ard market our multiplied
blessings. Let every ma be Of good
cheer and try to be coase1 vdtive in
everything except thankfulness."
Secretary of the Treasury Shaw
thus concluded l resume of the years
financial resources which he says has
been prepared in response to multi
plied requests. In round numbers he
places the receipts for the calendar
year 1906 at sc25, 100000 and the ex.
penditures at S566,OCo,0o0 o. an excess
of receipts over expenditures of $751;
100000. AS there has been no change
in the tariff laws Or tie laws relating
to internal revenue, Secretary Shaw
says the large increase in receipts is
due solely to the extraordinary trade
activity. The total expenditures, how
ever, for 19CG, as compared with 1862
he says. shows decrease OF Dut
S5,OOO,eO0.
Discussing the finances CT the gov
ernment for the six months OF the
present fiscal year just closed the Sec
retary says that the books o. the
treasury show surplus receipts over
expenditures of $25,000,000 as compar-
ed with a deficit of SS:O0O,0O0 Tor
the corresponding months of the prey
ious fiscal year. The cash in the
treasury is $199,O0u,000 as compared
with s171 100000 year ago, an In
crease of s19,o00,O0O. The cash LII ma
tional bank repositories is $3.50, ,0OO, 900
as compared with s65,O90,00G year
AGO. an increase OF S94,e0G,000 and
the total cash in he general fund Is
s356 900 900 as against $242,eOO,WO a
year ago.
Against this there are liabilities at
the present time $13,GO0,0G0 greater
than at the same time last year. The
available cash balance has incresed
during the year s1Ol 100000.
With the general fund at $237,00o,-
600. Secretary Shaw remarks that the
bonds maturing July l, 1907, can be
paid, if it shall be deemed wise, and
still leave a working balance of more
than s12O,O0O,o0O.
During the last twelve months, the
secretary continues, the money in ac'
tual circulation, exclusive OF the
amount in the treasury vaults, has IN
creased over $2O0,000,000. Of this in
crease s145,O00,00O is available for
bank reserve and s60,C00,cC0 is in na-
tional bank circulation.
"This," he says, seems to be a
complete answer to the Official re-
peated and ill-advised criticism that
the treasury system necessarily re-
suits in contraction when money IS
most needed
He maintains, therefore, that tie
existing money stringency, world wide
in it's extent, is traceable in no re-
spect and in no degree 10 the lnae-
pendent treasury system Of the Unit
ed States. He says The manifest short
age has been caused by the unpre-
cedented prosperity in this country
and reasonable prosperity everywhere.
