Economies of the Administration of
President Harding will enable the
Government to end the year with a
surplus of nearly $500, 900. Treas
ury Department records indicated to-
day. despite a decrease Of 22.S per
cent. in Government receipts since
January.
For the first calendar period in
years the Government on January 1
will find that its books for 1921 show
that revenues exceeded disbursements.
Government receipts from all ordi-
nary sources up to December IA aver
aged $3S0,000,00 month. In 1920
the average of receipts was $493, 3,O00,-
900 a month. or S113.oOo.OoO more than
now.
Receipts from all ordinary sources for
all but the remaining two weeks of
1921 total S4.374, 100000. For the same
period OF last year the total was $5,667.-
100000. This is a decrease in ordinary
receipts Oh Yi,sJo,UUv,UUU.
Despite the fact that the Government
will close the year having lived com
pietely within it's income, it has assumed
payments on the principal of the ma
tional war debt at the ,rate of nearly
$350,000,000 a year. This will tend to
decrease interest payments next year.

them to-day. Until an agreement can
be reached over the French Italian
naval allotments, little, If any, prog
ress will be made in the settlement of
the submarine question.
Chinese and Japanese representa-
tives, who have reached a virtual
agreement over the Kiaou-Chou dis
trict, continued their conversations"
to-day. Up to date they have failed to
agree on the manner in which China is
to pay the 55,000,000 gold marks to
Japan for relinquishing her hold on the
Tsingtao-T -Tsinanfu Railway.
The adjustment of this feature Of the
controversy depends on the ability of
Chinese banking groups to comply with
the Japanese demands as to the terms
of settlement There is much cabling
between Washington, Pekin and
Shanghai in an effort to straighten out
what at the moment appears to be the
over Shantung.
The Chinese offer to pay cash for
the purchase of the railway is ques-
toned by the Japanese. The basis for
their skepticism is that less than two
months ago the Chinese Government
defaulted on an American $4,000. 900
loan and that it owes hundreds of
millions of dollars to foreign interests,
including more than s200,000,000 to
Japan.
Japan Seeks Interest in Road.
This latter country greatly desires
to retain an interest in the railway,
although 1t is willing to surrender con-
troll if the financial terms stipulated by
it are met. The Chinese delegates in
sist that Japanese interest shall be
absolutely divorced from the enter
prise for all time. This condition is
the only one that would probably sat
isfy the people of China, who have
already chorused a mighty protest
against the direct negotiations now
proceeding.
The other Chinese problems remain
ing to be settled are described to be
in an advanced stage awaiting COM
pleton Of the Sino-Japanese negotia-
tions over Shantung.
The American delegates intimated
tonight that as soon as the new
tangle over the naval programme has
been Strengthened and general agree
ment effected to give China a new
start the question of Siberia will be
taken up. The occupation of north
eastern Asia by Japanese military
forces calls for an explanation, accord
ing to the American delegates, and
one will be requested.
American delegates displayed a ten
dency to-day to regard as unimportant
the contention of critics that the four
Power treaty signed on Monday con
fers special protection to Japan The
fact that Japan proper is an "irsular
possession" in the meaning of the
quadruple treaty is not considered
matter of any particular moment.
The treaty does not include the
mainland of Asia, but is distinctly in
sular in it's provisions. according to
the American authorities. The fact
that Japan proper is included in ii
does not affect the substance or ma
ture of the treaty. AS far as the
United States is concerned the pro-
visions of the treaty apply to Hawaii,
Guam and the Philippines.
The view of the American delegates
is that while there might be dis
tinction without difference. it Is Who'll
ly n verbal one" The American dele
gates expressed the belief that close
analysis of the treaty would result in
its acceptance by the Senate.
