thorough going national budget system
must be established and the govern
ment's expenses brought into relation to
its income"
The belief was expressed BY the new
secretary, however, that the first nine
months of the fiscal year, or to March
81, would show the treasury had made
, ends meet, with a slight surplus to use
against the great war debt Payments
on the war debt must necessarily be
slow, he said, explaining that the heavy
pay ments TO the railroads would seri-
ously hamper previous plans to lower
the debt
The issues of certificates announced
viii aggregate S400.000,000 and will bear
interest at ) II per cent, half having a
maturity date OF one year and the other
for six months.
Both issues will be accepted in pay
ment of income and profits taxes.
In notifying the bankers of the issues,
Mr. Mellon said he felt it his duty to
inform them at the outset of his admin
istration of the probable requirements
of the government in the coming months
and to say something concerning it's fl
nancial program.
He said that 100000 in certificates
must be paid off March Is and an addi-
tional SllS,O00G00 q month later. Besides
semi-annual interest on Liberty bonds
on March Is, payment of about S75,-
600 900. The treasury also must make
payments to the railroads during March,
which Mr. Mellon estimated at 5000. 000,
O00
To partially offset the heavy outgo,
the regular quarterly payment of income
and profits taxes Is due March l5 from
which the treasury hopes to realize APP
proximately $500000,000. This tax pay
ment. therefore. will be used up in re-
firing the certificates due on the same
date Funds obtained from the new is
sue of certificates then viii become
available for caring for other debts, of
which the railway payments and the
small previous issues of certificates
constitute the greatest amount.
Mr.. Mellon also observed optimistic
signs in the general financial condition
throughout the country. noting partic-
ularly that the vast quantities of gov
eminent securities We're widely spread
and that each new issue of government
paper was being taken more largely by
investors. He cited market quotations
on treasury certificates showing that
they had been quoted at par or at pre-
MUM which is an indication of healthy
and sound finance" Those now held by
banks-treasury records showing that
many financial institutions were heavy
holders are being gradually absorbed
By real investors" Mr.. Mellon said,
adding that the situation generally as
regards the loans required by the gov
eminent was much improved over CON
ditiOns a few months ago.
