bill passed by Congress and signed by
the President in the closing hours of the
last session it was decided that estimates
should be submitted to Congress as here

of the President at the time, but since
the session closed he has decided that he
will try to show the country the ad-
vantages of budget system over the
present methods Of estimating the income
and expenditures of the government
The President, after consulting Secre-
tary MacVeagh of the Treasury, has
reached the conclusion that there is moth
ing to prevent Mr.. MacVeagh from send
ing along the estimates in budget from
just as comparison and not for use in
framing bills. In this way he hopes to
get the attention of the country focused
upon a matter which he believes is most
important. The President it is stated,
probably will make statement soon re-
garding the budget system.
