Mr.. Mcfarland Pleased. ..
Commissioner Mcfarland said today:
1T is very gratifying that this year. as
last, the Secretary Of the Treasury trans
mits the estimates of the Commissioners
! without recommending any reduction in
them, in accordance with the Commission
ers' request They put that request upon
the ground that the estimates were pre-
pared in accordance with the principle of
distinguishing between the extraordinary
and the current expenditures and that
thus considered with proper allowance for
| both accounts, the appropriations asked
could be made under the anticipated reYe-
nueS.
| This action of the Secretary of the
Treasury will facilitate the efforts of the
Commissioners in presenting the matter to
Congress. AS has been already stated.
the District revenues for the next fiscal
, year are ample to cover a suitable pay
ment upon the account for extraordinary
expenditures and also to meet all the cur
rent expenditures estimated by the Com
lmissiOners.
