TREASURY HAS DEFICIT
OF 500, 600, 900 FOR YEAR

The fiscal year 1915 which came to an
end yesterday leaves the United States
Treasury with a deficit of about $50 0o0,-
600 on the years business, The cash bal
ance at the close of the fiscal year 1914
was sl45.0o0.oOo. The receipts for this, the
last day of the fiscal year. are not yet
available, but it Is estimated that the
cash balance with which the Treasury
will start the new year today will be only
about so5,CcOOOO. compared with the s1iJ.-
100000 of a year ago.
While the Treasury figures are such as
to suggest the possibility of a bond issue
or further revenue legislation unless re-
lief is obtained in the coming year, re-
ports from the Department of Commerce
for the twelve fiscal months just ended
present a more cheerful outlook
Trade Balance of Billion.
A statement issued by Secretary Red
field yesterday shows the United States
has made a gigantic new trade record
for itself. the balance in favor of this
country having exceeded 81. 600 O0O. coo. This
surpasses by nearly 500 900 900 the previ-
Gus high record by the United States.
Secretary Redfield shows that for the
eleven months ended with May 81, 1915,
the exports exceeded the imports by
S9s3.o0.ooo. Thirteen of the ports which
ordinarily handle 80 per cent of the
foreign trade show, for June
an export balance of approximately $50
cco,0oo. From. these figures. Mr.. Redfield
estimates that the favorable balance for
the year will easily exceed the s., OOO. 0oO.-
900 mark. >.
Definite figuers on the condition Of the
Treasury at the close of the fiscal year
will not be available until today when
the returns of the income tax payments
have been received. At the close of
the expenditures of the govern
ment had exceeded the receipts for the
fiscal year by sos, $4,000.
The receipts from the income and cor
taxes yesterday will, however,
reduce this deficit. Last year
the income tax payments on June 30
amounted to s26,Ooo, 900, but Treasury of.
The Washington herald., 1915-07-01

ficials do not believe that yesterdays
collections will run as high, because it
Is now generally known that the date on
which the legal penalty for non-payment
becomes operative Is July 10, instead of
July 1. officials last night were Of the
opinion that the days collections will
not exceed $4,000, 0Oo
Includes Canal Bonds.
This would bring the excess of dis
bursements over receipts for the year
down to about $50, 600. This $50 600. 900
includes SO. 100000 of expenditures on ac-
count of the Panama Canal, against
which bonds already have been author
lied.
OF course, the figures for the end Of
the fiscal year will not include all of the
income tax collections. Up to the close
Of Tuesday 5000, 900 had been received
by the Treasury from income and cor
poration taxes The Treasury officials
hope that these taxes will yield the fun
amount estimated, or about $50 900.
II their expectations are realized and
only $4,000 900 was collected yesterday
there will still be sas, 900. 900 to be added to
the revenues Of the government BY July
10. This 5000. 900. however, will figure
on the records OF the present fiscal year.
1t probably will bring the cash balance
in the Treasury up to about $50 900, 900 for
the starting of the new year.
This balance will carry the government
along for some time. but many fear that
unless there is a relief from war con-
ditions. some new measures will have TO
be adopted by the government to meet
the drain In the new fiscal year. The
war revenue tax law expires on January
I next. and many believe the President
will be obliged to call Congress in extra
session before December in order to re-
enact this measure II the war continues.

GERMANY MAY HOLD BACK.
VIII Let Austria Settle Troubles
with Italy Alone, 1t Is Said.

Rome, June 30.-An important person
age, well-informed on international ques-
tions. who has just returned from Ger
many, said that Germany did not con-
template declaring war against Italy,
but would leave Austria to fight the
Italians alone.
Germany, he declared, has great inter-
ests in Italy and wishes to safeguard
them, fearing that Italy may initiate
England, Russia and France and seize
German property. The dispatch of a sim
gle man against Italy would mean driv-
ing Italy into the war against Turkey.
Germany wishes to avoid this danger.
