Treasury Deficit Not Real,
Treas. Corte|you Says.
Cash Is Paid Out Instead Of
Issuing Bonds, He Exc|aims,
Which Shows Financial Strength as
Well as Imaginary Deficit.

Washington. July 3.-Sccretary Cor
telyou today gave out statement re-
gardirg the treasury situation III which
he says that the deficit of $50, 600
shown by the treasury statements is
more appar, mt than real because of the
Anticipated bookkeeping system, which
is being ovcrhaulcd and contending
that considering the ordinary receipts
of the government" there is really a
surplus.
The secretary says that the items in
cluded under ordinary expenditures are
such as might properly be covered by
the issue of bonds instead of paid out
of current revenues. the latter method
constituting an exhibition of financial
strength which shows only an mag
mary deficit Tie statement cites meth
DDS of special accounting of foreign
governments along these lines,
Secretary Cortelyou's statement in
part follows:
"AlthOugh the treasury statements
show a deficit in round numbers of
$50, 900, 900 in the operations of the gov
eminent during the fiscal year just
closed. the deficit is more apparent
than real. being due to an Anticipated
system of bookkeeping which Secre-
tary Cortclyou is having overhauled
and modernZed. Considering the or
binary receipts of the government there
is not only no deficit. but a surplus.
The amount of new debt created dur
ing the year was only $1,000.000 in ex-
cess of the amount redeemed and 49,
600 900 was expended in new public
works of which less than half was paid
for by the creation of funded debt.
The total amount expended by this
government for various public works.
including the Panama canal. during
the past fiscal year was SS4,S25,32S.
