Washington Whisperings.
The National Treasury Facing Deficit of
$1OO,OOO,OOO.

The National Treasury Facing Deficit of
$1OO,O0O,0OO.
WASHINGTON, D. c., Feb. 8, 1916.
Another day of reckoning.
The United States Treasury faces a
deficit of over $100,000,O00 The party
responsible for that deficit must either
meet the situation or surrender the reins
of power.
In other words, the American people
demand that political party either make
good or give up.
The handwriting on the wall was re-
vealed recently by Representative JOS
eph W. Fordney of Michigan in dis
cussion of the Democratic tariff and
revenue policies before the House. He
showed that the Democratic party has
failed to make good.
"The Treasury balance is nearly 500,
100000 less than it was when the Re-
publlcans were in power" said Mr..
Fordney. ''The war in Europe is the
excuse, but it is not the cause for the
deficit. Without that war the Demo
cratic party would have been compelled
to admit ere this that their tariff law is
a complete failure.
"Comparing nine months from March
to November, 1915, with the correspond
ing nine months from March to Novem-
Der, 1918. imports showed gain of
SIP, TIC, 900. Customs receipts showed a
loss of S76,000,00 The maximum loss
of customs receipts that can be attrib-
uted to the war in Europe is S., 500, 900
per month, and the war tax, so-called, is
producing $1,000, 600 per month, or about
81, 300, 600 per month more than the loss
in customs receipts.
Notwithstanding the fact that the
war tax is more than making up for the
loss in customs receipts, the balance in
the general fund declined SIS, 6O3, 1856
from July 81, 1914, to July 81, 1915. On
July 81, 1914, the balance was $143, 776,-
800 and one year later it was down to
s68, $4,000.
THE Underwood law started out with
good balance in the Treasury. That is
not an argument in favor of the Under
wood law Credit for that balance be-
longs to the preceding Republican tariff
law. The real question is, what balance
will you have at the end of the opera
ton of the Underwood law?
up to the present time some $85, 00O,-
600 has been raised by the so-called war
taxes, and notwithstanding this and the
fact that importations at present are
breaking past records in volume, the
balance in the general fund is now down
to about S50,0O0,OOO.
when the Underwood act is finally
repealed and the reckoning is made, it
will show some hundreds of millions
raised by Objectionable methods of taxa
tion-and an empty treasury"
