sixth Congress.
Must Settle War Contracts
"Unquestionably large sums will be
expended during the fiscal year 1920
in the settlement of war contracts
While the amount expended in making
loans to the Allies is not an appropria-
tion, it is an expenditure to be made
under authorizations contained in the
victory loan act, enacted during the
asst Congress. That act authorized |
the Secretary Of the Treasury to make |
oans to foreign governments for a |
period of eighteen months following
he treaty of peace, 20 enable them to
purchase war material from the Unit
ID States, and to pay for wheat which
nay be sold to them. There will re
main Of said authorization for the
iscal year 1920 about 100000.
"The second deficiency act repealed |
appropriations previously made to the
extent of $7,2S7 ,621 ,S1O.61. The amounts
which Congress could safely repeal
we're estimated by the various depart
ncnts. The War Department csti-
mated that it could surrender $2,096,- |
l14,707.14 of appropriations previously
made for general appropriations,
uuartcrmaster corps 1t subsequently, |
ascc crtained that it's estimate was er-
roneous. and that by reason Of the /
repeal above referred to it would have

Revenue Total $5,150,000,00
"Thc revenue out of which these
expenses must he met
will be obtained from our customs
lutics, income taxes and other internal
revenue receipts, postal receipts and
receipts, including in
lcrest from foreign governments, and Z
canal tolls, which in the aggregate /
should yield approximately $5,150,00O,- /

"The appropriations to supply dc
iciencies in the various departments /
arc chargcable against the fiscal year
ending June 80, 1919, and when dc
iucted from the total Of the appro- /
Driations above referred to it, via
be found that the total revenue viii '
fall short of meeting the appropria-
lions for the fiscal year ending June /
30. 1920. by approximately $780,,
300 600"
