nothing less than astounding.
Gaines actions since he was re-

BUSINESS
ON FIRM
BASIS

b ROBERT s. THORNBURGH
Fiscal New Years" was cele-
brated by the United States Gov
eminent and thousands Of COM
mercial and industrial corpora
tons throughout the country to-
day with glowing prospects FOR
continuation Of the prosperity
which has established numerous
records in the past IL months.
Corporations operating on D
calendar year basis passed the
first half of 1926 with CORE
spondingly sound conditions, prom
ising well for the future.
Indicators Of Prosperity
Among the fiscal year Iiidicatofs
ee good times were cited the fol-
/. Estimated exports. $4,76O. oO0,.
90 and imports, $4,440, 900 900.
2. Estimated gold exports, $116s:
5000, and imports, $195. 000, 900.
3. Governmental receipts, $685..
7s5,000. about 1882, 900, 900 over the
last fiscal year.
1. Income tax receipts, $685.
100000. or $500. 0000. 600 better than
IN 1925.
8. Customs receipts, $577, 4sO. 900,
exceeding last year by $33.00O,0O0.
The cost Of the Government last
year was S3,5s4,s7S. 900.
Record Of 1926
Figures for the first six months
Of 1926 disclosed the following:
/. Estimated domestic capital IS
sues, 5000, 00o, 900, compared to S.
1se, 100000 for the entire calendar
year OF 1925.
2. Foreign fIotations In United
states, $500, o00, 900, q slight de-
crease over the six months period
Of 1925.
The Government went into the
new year today with an estimated
total Of $500 900 900 to spend dur
ing the IL months. and estimated
Governmental costs of $500 900,
assuring a material surplus.
Whether or not this means an
other tax reduction within q year
Is problematical. Administration Of
9icials oppose another cut on the
ground that the 1925 revenue act
should be given longer trial.
From the privitSe business stand.
point the six months have been
unusually successful and have
been marked by a conservative ex-
pansion that is believed to place
commerce and industry on The
most stable and satisfactory founda-
ton in history.
Investment in foreign lands was
only slightly under the first half
Of 1925. The total American CAPT.
tai abroad June 80 was approxi-
nately $10,905, 900 900.
