Washington, Nor. 8.-Estimates
upon which congress viii make ap-
preparations for the first fiscal wear
OF the new republican administration
are now being prepared by the yarl-
Gus government departments under
the direction OF democratic cabinet
officers and in accord with the poll
cies OF the Wilson administration.
The estimates will be submitted to
congress al the opening OF the next
session on December 8. Since the
republicans have majority IN both
the senate and house, sharp ex-
changes are expected TO be made III
most Of the estimates under revision
plans which republican congressional
leaders are expected to work out In
cooperation with other Leaders OF
the Harding administration, which
takes Office on March 4.
Large Naval Budget.
The present political situation with
regard TO the annual appropriation:
Is similar TO that which obtained
eight years ago after the first cleo
ton of Woodrow Wilson, but the
economic situation IN the country
was vastly different. At that time
] all administration republicans were
IN control OF the executive branches
OF the government, but the demo
crats had a majority IN both the SEN
ate and house.
The forthcoming estimates for the
War department will be based upon
the requirements OF an army. the
size OF which already has been fixed
by the republican congress, but the
naval estimates TO be submitted next
month will be based on the demo
cratic program. Secretary Daniels
had repeatedly said that unless the
United States became a member OF
the league OF nations il must main
tain the most powerful navy in the
world
Building Five Super Ships.
Under the program authorized IN
1916 the government now Is con-
structing FIVE great battle cruisoIs
and more than that number OF SD
perdreadnaughts and the torthcom-
irr naval estimate is expected not
enlv TO includ> appropriations for
carr ing on thts work. but also rec
concentrations tor additional W.T.
craft.
Estimates for all OF the govern
ment departments are expected to
exceed $4,000, 900 900, this total III
cluding amounts for refunding por-
tions OF the public debt falling due
during the next fiscal year. The es-
Inmates for the present fiscal year ex-
ceeded S6,000,0 ,000,0 900. but these sub
sequentlv were reduced by some
thing like $1,000. 100000.
Whether all OF the annual supply
measures will be completed al the
next and final session Of the Doth
congress remains to be determined
President-E Elect Harding Is expected
70 call a special session OF the new
congress soon after he takes Office
on March and il may be that some
Of the appropriation bills will go
over to the special session.
