TREASURY IS NOT
FACING DEFICIT
Rep. Gaines, of West Virginia, De-
tends Payne Tariff Bill-Tea
Tax To Be Lifted.

WASHINGTON, April l.-Represent.
tive Gaines (Rep w. Va), in the
house today defended the Payne tariff
bill. That the treasury was far from
facing a deficit from the alarming
shortage popularity supposed was d
statement which Gaines sought Ia
prove.
Reading from the treasury state.
ment OF March 80. and special stats.
tics prepared by the Panama Canal
Commission he declared that the
canal owes the treasury" $72,967 600
this sum not being properly charged
against the ordinary expenses OF gov
eminent. Deducting this sum, Gaines
maintained that instead OF facing a
deficit on July !, the treasury would
have a surplus.
He declared that the word deficit
as used by President Taft meant the
excess OF expenditures over receipts
He said that the treasury statement
itself was often misread--that the
amount under the caption "disbursing
officers balance" which IL always sun.
tracted from the available cash bal
arCe. should be really added. to deter
mine the exact amount I'm the treas
ury, since IL represents sum now
held in the treasury TO defray future
expenses OF various disbursing Off
GERS.
A strong intimation by Gaines that
the tax on tea would be taken from
the bill before II leaves the house
caused surprise To those who were lis
tening 10 his speech. Rep. Sulzer
(DemD. objected To the heavy taxes
imposed "on necessaries OF life."
Does not the bill lay tax on tea?'
asked Sulzer.
II don't think we need 10 tax tea,
said Gaines. IF the gentleman will
possess his soul in patience. l think
ne and | will agree on that before the
bill gets out of the house"
Gaines statement was accepted gen
orally as evidence that the ways and
moans committee has become con
WINGED OF the great unpopularity OF
the tea tax. and has decided TO re-
woke II.
A Democratic member suggested
that Bryan had cost the Republican
party a good deal.
yes" shouted Gaines. and he cost
the Democratic party something
too
Gaines maintained that world condl
lions produced the panic Of 1907. He
declared that foreign manufacturers
felt the depression, and sought to
evade it by unloading their material
on the United States, which resulted
in flooding the market at reduced
prices.
