FINANCIAL CONDITION
OF STATE IS EXCELLENT
Gross Receipts Of Fiscal Year End
ing Last Night Largest in His
tory of Commonwealth
BALANCE ON HAND $s51,771.3s
Steady Growth Is Shown In Gross
Receipts and Balance Since Audi
tor Moore Took Charge-Outlook
Good for Coming Year.

| At no previous time in her history
| has the Commonwealth OF Virginia been
| so financially strong and healthy as
she is to-day, the beginning of new
fiscal year.
This gratifying condition Is shown
| by the balance sheet drawn last night
| by Chief fiookkecper John T. Sale, of
| tho office of the Auditor of Public Ac-
counts. The record of receipts for the
year from all sources, however. is far
! from complete. The new tax system,
under which reports on assessments are
| reviewed by local boards. operated this
year to hold back a large volume OF
| receipts which will later swell tho
gross receipts for the year enormously.
The book balance drawn By the Audi
tors chief hoolsl<ccpcr show that there
is standing to the States credit at the
beginning of this new fiscal year $751;
111.33, against balance for 1914 OF
$G35.4l7.S3. The increase in 1915 over
1914 is therefore S216,353.jO.
COMPARATIVE STATEMENT OF
RECEIPTS AND DISBURSEMENTS
The steady and healthy growth of
the States finances is shown in tho
following comparative statement of re-
ceipts and disbursements for the last
four years:
Receipts from all sources. 1912, ST.
o5l.6il; total disbursements, S7.lS3.-
1878. Receipts, 1913. S7.465,S72TI;
disbursements. S7.11S,57SO2. Receipts,

645.35I.07. Receipts, 1915. SS,2I0,925 30 :;
disbursements. $7.?9i,57LS5
Added to the receipts from II sources
for the year ended yesterday is a bal
ancc on hand October |. 1911. amount
ing to s635,417.S3, bringing the total
to SS,S4G,343.1S.
The total OF disbursements for all
purposes for the wear ended Yesterday
is S7,9?4,571.S5. This gives the balance
on hand its total Of $S5l.771.33
STEADY GROWTH SINCE
MOORE TOOK CHARGE
How tho figures have grown on the
credit side OF the balance shoots since
Auditor c. Lee Moore assumed charge
/ of the Office is shown In the following
review of the last four years:
Increase in receipts from all sources
for 1918 over the preceding year, $4l4,-
23I.74: increase in 1911 over 1913,
s33l, G5o.71: increase in 1915 over 1914,
Sil3,392.S4
Out of the balance shown Tor this
year will have 10 be paid into special
funds to which certain revenues are
assigned a total of about s1a0, 900 No
cognizance is taken of these special
! funds in the balance sheets drawn YES
| tcrday.
1t Is estimated that the receipts from
AL sources for the year commencing
| to-day VIII show an enormous increase
over the year just closed. The volume
OF revenue from all of the principal
sources is growing rapidly and steadily,
and II is expected that the enforce
ment of the new tax laws, bringing to
the State just taxes that have been
| for many years omitted, will further
! strengthen the States finances and TO Il
very large extent.
