REP. UNDERWOOD SHOWS FIG.
URES FROM TREASURY DEPT.
OF CONDITIONS.
He SAYS INCOME EQUALS EXPENSES
Receipts Were Over s7aa, 600, 900, Leav.
ing a Surplus Of Thirty Million
Income Tax Great Help. But
Many Try to Evade It.

Neutrality-suspicious. with official
figures from the treasury department,
Democratic Leader Underwood told
the house Saturday there would be no
deficit in government finances, and
that any prediction of one was a
dream, based on wishes springing from
political antagonism.
In an analysis of the governments
financial situation he announced that
the total receipts of the government
for the fiscal year ending June 80
would aggregate s$733,000, 900, leaving
surplus of $30,O00,OO0 and that with
only a half years operation of the in.
come tax.
Canal to Pay Expenses.
That did not include Panama canal
expenditures, estimated at $35,00O,O0O
Next year, he declared, Panama ex-
penditures would practically pass
away and the canal receipts would
pay running expenses.
Mr.. Underwood's speech was in sup
port of the senate amendment to the
legislative appropriation bill to in
crease the treasury fund for collect
ing the income tax from 81 100000 to
81 500 900, which the house finally
agreed to. Mr.. Underwood explained
that the increase was for collection OF
the income tax from persons mad cor
porations trying to evade it.
Income Tax 500 0o0, 900.
For next year," he predicted, 1--WE
can be assured of collecting more than
500, 100000 from the income tax even
if no more proportionately is collected
than was collected this year, and more
proportionately will be collected"
Mr.. Underwood said customs re
ceipts were producing in the curren
year $22,000,000 more than the admin
istration had expected, and the treas
ury department reported to him these
| figures of the total revenues for the
current year just ending.
Figures on Income.
Income and corporation tax $4,000,
900, which had been estimated at $95,
900 900.
Internal revenue 5000 100000, esti
mated $312,OO0,00O
Customs receipts, 100000, esti
mated at $270,OO0,0OO.
Miscellaneous receipts $4,000
estimated at $59,000,000.

could hear the painting of their heaYa
breathing where we lay helpless; but
that shift of wind was just what was
required to right the ship. She lifted
herself with glorious motion and
shook herself like duck; then, as tho
wind caught her full astern, she
sprang forward like an arrow from q
bow.
At half past two the weather helms
man almost tainted at his post lie
had been kept up to his work by
copious doses of grog, but the strain
was too severe to be kept up. The
next best man in the ship took tho
spokes, the helmsman let 60 and for
a second the ship went ON ~ usual.
But not for long. The new man had
not got the hang Of things. and he
allowed her to jibe little. Instantly
she was awash.
The whole Atlantic ocean seemed
to pour aboard this time. and we In
the half deck, where we had gone
for temporary shelter. hearing the
sullen thud. thought it was the end.
One Of the men sprang to the door
and tried to open It, but q solid wall
Of water was behind It and It resisted
his stoutest efforts. Another, with
the sweat drops of fear shining ON HIS
forehead, jumped on the table and
thrust up the skylight in the room.
Immediately the place was half filed
with water. The lamp went out and
the horrible sound of swishing water
filed our ears.
An Awful Plunge Into the Deep.
Why dwell on every detail Of that
awful night? Suffice 1t that the old
helmsman was sent back to the wheel
at once, that his skill made our es-
cape possible, and that after what
seemed like long years had passed.
the chill dawn broke. and showed US
our plight In all its gruesomsness.
Not thing remained about the decks
save those solid structures that were
built into the fabrics hull. Every boat
we carried had disappeared, having.
been smashed into splitwood and then
carried over side.
AS we raced through the gray light
| large bark appeared in sight ahead.
We ranged toward her, and az we
drew near the red ensign stood out.
1t was union down-the signal Of dis
tress.
We could not even lift q hand to-
ward her salvation! We had not a
boat that would float, and II we had
had all the boats of liner they would
not have floated a second in that rag
ing fury Of the wind dashed sea. We
passed on, and low groan burst from
"a score of threats. Well 1t might! AT
one minute the helpless ship was high
poised on the crest Of wave, at an.
other she swerved giddily downward
We waited with bated breath for the
temperance, but we saw nothing
more. She had run under.

Experience Comes First.

That age and experience AZ a rule
count for more than youth and enthu-
siasm Is a theme sustained vigorously
by the editor Of the American Ma
chinist To illustrate his point he
cites the following experience:
"A short time ago we spent q few
days in large machine shop where
man Is considered young until he
reaches sixty-five or seventy years OF
age. We met number who had seen,
from twenty to forty years Of service
with this company. When inquiries,
we're made as to their work we were.
told that 1t was as good as and often
better than that OF many younger men
in the company's employ.
In this shop was noticed the abb
sence Of waste motion; NO 'goose
steps were seen. Often much Of the
hurry and hustle exhibited By the
younger man ID useless motion and
parade action
ITO the superintendent who looks
only 1t Appearances such actions
might indicate live shop, but IN faot
they do not get anywhere"

.ShcciaI 10 The Telegraph

Washington, ID. c., Sept. 10.-Aver-
age prices of virtually all important
agricultural products on September 1
showed increases over quotations of
one year ago. the Department of
Agriculture's general review. indicated
to-day. Cotton was the marked ex-
ception, dropping nearly 3 cents a
pound.
Nearly all the grains showed heavy
increases, while average prices of
meat animals on August Is were $7.63
per hundredweight, compared with
.$7.20 year ago, and 1855 in 1912.
While 1t was recognized that the
European war had inflated grain
prices some, bureau officials believed
they would maintain a higher level
and that a shortage of animals would
give meats a rising tendency.
Corn advanced from $.754 on Sep
tember l last year to S.S15 this
month; wheat from $.771 to $.9SS:
oats. $393 to $.423; rye, from $.630
to $,754; buckwheat. from $3.50 to

chickens and eggs advanced slightly.
