Panama Canal.

Provision for the construction of a
new municipal building at Cristobal,
Panama Canal Zone, and for continu-
ing the construction of permanent
quarters is contained in the estimates
for the Panama Canal, as we'll as a
fund of $40, 900 for the construction
and repair of sidewalks and highways.
The fund allowed in the current eSti-
mates for new buildings is $450.000,
which is in addition to 100000 appro-
priated for use this year.
In connection with the estimates for
maintaining and operating this great
national asset, the Budget Bureau re-
ports to Congress the following lnfor-
nation that is of interest:
The investment in the canal and its
adjuncts is partly for national defense
and partly commercial. To June 30,
1926, the investment charged to ma
tional defense was $112 ,662S122a and to
commercial use. $267 ,581 ,705, the total
investment being $3.50, ,437. which
is exclusive of fortifications, military
posts and submarine bases. The total
gross revenue to June 80, 1926,
amounted to 277,960,263, derived
from tolls, taxes and business opera
tons. Deducting from this the ex-
panses incident to transiting vessels
through the canal, $50 6,O79,9 1929; the ex-
pense connected with business opera
tions, $128,414.0SS, which includes the
value of services, supplies and mate
rials sold, there remains q net reve-
nue.. excluding interest on the invest
ment, of S63, ,466,246. Of this $685.
1873 was from tolls and taxes and
SIS ,O73,O63 from business operations.
Included in, the expense account for
the canal are fixed annual charges Of
$655,37O for depreciation and amorti-
zation of canal fixed property and
$4,000 for depreciation on canal
equipment. The amount of toll col
lected has increased from $5,627 ,463
in 1917 to S22,931 ,O55 in 1926

Interior Department.

An increase of $32,755,278 in the
Budget Bureau estimate of Interior
Department appropriations for the
fiscal year 1923 is attributed by the
Budget Bureau today to the increased
pension rates of the Spanish War and
Civil War pension laws enacted at
the last session of Congress. Esti-
mates for the department, without the
increase in pension payments, the bu-
reau said, would be decreased by
$S,244,722. The bureau estimate for
1928 is $285,717 ,596, against 1882 2,962,-
318 for the current fiscal year.
The appropriation of 1892 100000 for
Army and Navy pensions for 1927.
the budget bureau said, was made
prior to the enactment of the increased
pension legislation, and it is now be-
lieved that an additional amount of
SAL 5000 will be required for Army
and Navy pensions during 1927.
The amount for the Columbia Insti.
tuition for the Deaf is increased from
$113,400 to $218,000 for improvements
to the light and power plant. The esti-
mate for Howard University is en-
larged from $218,0OO to $368.OO0 to
provide for construction of a girls
dormitory, and the amount for Freed
mems Hospital is increased from 1885,
800 to $188,856 to provide for new
laundry machinery.

Post Office Department.
ncle Sans post office ma

In 1929 Uncle Sans post office may
pay for itself.
Based on the prospect of reducing
the postal revenue deficiency for the
next year by more than half" the
budget declares that IF the same con.
ditions can be carried into the fiscal
year 1929 there is good ground for in
dulging the hope that the postal de-
ficiency, which in the fiscal year 1926
amounted to more than $35 900, 900,
will be eliminated
Estimates for the Post Office De
partment were increased by $19,163,.
812 up to the figure of $757 7,969,115
for 1928. The requirements of good
service are given first consideration, "
said the statement, while a secondary
but important consideration was said
to be the elimination of the deficit.
The net increase is made up "of
numerous increases in allowances for
activities affected by the greater vol
ume of mail to be handled, and some
decreases in other allowances where
the demands on the service will not
be so great or substantial savings
Will be made possible as the result OF
economies in administration.
Among the increases is $74,74O ir
the allowance for departmental sal
aries so as to provide for seven ad.
ditional employees, including an assist.
ant chief inspector, and for promo
tions to the staff which will resul,

Navy Department.

Although there have been con-
sistent statements from the Navy De-
partment that the United States naval
forces are below the 5-5-3 treaty ratio,

vide for a further slight reduction
in the number of ships to be operated,
according to the statement in the bud
get presented to Congress today. The
estimates also provide for a ''slight
reduction" in the number Of classified
department employees within the Dis
trict of Columbia.
The total to be made available for
1928 is given as 1917, 7,S15 500, as
against 1921, ,061,975 available for this
year, or a net reduction of $9,246, ATS.
This estimate, the budget report says,
is predicated upon provision for suffi-
clent enlisted men to meet the needs
of the service; decommissioning or
placing in reserve Of certain old ships;
the commissioning of two new air.
plane carriers; for efficient mainte.
nance and operation of the fleet and
shore activities; for carrying forward
the construction of ships under way
at the end of the fiscal year 1927: for
continuing the work Of undermining
the six old coal-burning battleships:
for meeting the second increment of
Vic NAV ISc-S 0StI pIOSTdIll.
While the general figures show re-
duction. nevertheless increases are
provided for the naval reserve from
$3.50, $50 to $3,850,00 in addition to
seas, 900 for new planes for the re-
serve carried under aviation; for ord
nance and ordnance stores from $10,-
$4,000 to 1.450,00O; for purchase
and manufacture of smokelesS powder
from $772,000 to $1,000,000; for pay
of the Navy from $685. 500 to $124.-
1000, including a new item for out
fits on first enlistment involving $2,-
800, 900: for provisions from $19 9,207.-
600 to S19,430, 900; for aviation from
$19 ,065,2S8 to $19,790,000, plus $780,
600 increase in contract authorization;
for pay, Marine Corps, from $14,970,-
347 to S15,031. 800.
The items bearing the brunt of the
reduction are transportation and re-
cruiting. from $4,664.000 to $4,000. 900;
for engineering, from $19, $4,000 to
$500 900; for construction and re.
pair of vessels, from $16,950. 600 to
SIG 500, 900; for maintenance. Bureau

wartime construction, the Budget pro-
vides for a direct appropriation of
81 400. 900, which will be in addition
to the $7.2OO,00O fund obtained by the
Army from the sale of posts declared
obsolete for military purposes. The
direct appropriation is for the specific
purposes of initiating expansion in the
Air Corps. and there is a provision in
the total building estimate for $685.
600 for new construction at strictly
Air Corps posts.
The total estimate for the Army OF
1856, ,722, ,142, which is a decrease from
the current appropriation of $11,-
251 $40, provides for a maximum force
Of $4,000 commissioned officers and
an average enlisted strength through.
out the year of 115,000 exclusive of
Philippine Scouts, for which an aver.
age enlisted strength of 6,SS2 is pro.
vided. This fund also will provide for
the training Of 1852 reserve officers
for a period of two weeks and 352
reserve officers for periods ranging

Department of Agriculture.

Estimates reaching a total of
$144, 4,4s7,S2O are contained in the
budget for the Department of Agri-
culture for the fiscal year of 1928 as
transmitted to Congress today. This
represents a net increase of $4,S51,-
997 over the appropriations for the
department for 1927, when appropria-
ton bills provided a total of $780,
625,823.
More than half of the net increase
of $4,851, ,997 is due to an increase of
$2,5O0,00 in the estimate for con-
struction of forest roads and trails.
The original estimate of $5,OO0.0O0 for
this work was boosted to $500, 900.
This increase, while it does not con-
template broadening of the constr'lc-
ton program on forest roads. will al
low the department to meet obliga-
tions arising under authorizations
for improvements made by Congress
but as yet unprovided for in appro-
priation bills.
The estimates contained a reduction
from $195,366 to $180,366 for rent of
buildings in the District of Columbia
and a reduction of $4,000 carried in
the original estimates to purchase
land at Beltsville. Md, which appro-
ldllOu "do JfldAC lOA tAC AlSSdA JNctA
of 1927 after the original draft Of the
estimates.
One of the large single items of in
crease in the budget is the sum of
$480, 900 for the more complete en-.
dowment of agricultural experiment
stations pursuant to the Purnell act,
which authorizes for the fiscal year of
