CONGRESS WINS
ON ECONOMY

Congress has out-saved President
Coolidge in the expenditure Of pub
lie funds, it was revealed today in
a resume Of Federal appropriations
for the fiscal year 1s27-1S2S.
A report on all estimates by the
Bureau OF the Budget and all APP
propriations voted by Congress at
its last session showed that Con-
gress saved the people $7,752,9 sS by
economizing on the recommends
lions of various Government de.
partments, which had the endorse
ment of the President. The report
was prepared by Kennedy F. Rea,
clerk Of the Senate Appropriations
COMMITTEES, and Marcellus G. Shield,
clerk of the House committee.
The resume revealed that the
Bureau of the Budget had recon-
mended expenditures totalling ST..
81, SO2,957 for operation Of the
Government during the fiscal year
beginning July 1. Congress, how
ever, cut down this total by appro-
priating only $2,804, 550,O18, a saving
Of nearly $S,000,00O.
This economy was practiced with
out Congress winning any fame as
a saver of public funds and while
the Bureau Of the Budget con-
tinually won credit for economizing,
The totals were not affected by
the failure Of Congress to enact the
second deficiency appropriation bill,
as the summary did not include the
estimate approved by the budget
for that bill.

WHEAT PRICES RALLY
AFTER EARLY DROP
Decrease in World Visible Supplv
Total Attracts Buying in
Chicago Market Today.
By the Associated Press

By the Associated Press
CHICAGO, April 23.-Wheat rallied
today after a little setback at the
outset ascribed to favorable weather
On the other hand, much notice was
taken of an estimate that the world
visible supply of wheat and flour had
decreased 10000, 900 bushels since last
month. Opening at shade to q
decline, wheat later showed something
of an advance. Corn, oats and pro.
visions were easy, corn starting I'M.
changed to AaK off and subsequently,
receding all around.
Measured against recent enormous
world shipments, current estimated
decrease of 10000 900 bushels in the
worlds visible supply of wheat and
nour since last month was declared
today by a leading authority here to
be fabulous shrinkage. He COM
mented that production seemed TO
have been accurately gauged. but that
there was no doubt requirements had
been underestimated.
Buying was also given a stimulus
through reports that snowbanks are
still in evidence Northwest and fields
very muddy. and that Spring wheat
acreage would be reduced on account
OF lateneSs of the season. Notable
strength of the Winnipeg market at
times tended further to lift values
here, and so likewise did indications
that export demand overnight for
wheat from North America had been
of good volume.

at the opening of today's market. st.

the years high. while Marland Oil
sank TO a new low. Byproducts Coke
opened pa points higher, and United
Fruit lost 3 points on the first sale.
Week end business and trade re-
ports disclosed further irregularity,
which was reflected in the mixed
movement of stock prices. Major ac'
tivity. however, appeared TO be on
the upside, With the continued ease
of credit conditions regarded as
dominating influence for the time be-
ing. A brisk demand developed early
in the session for the coalers, Read.

tional Nickel also established new
peak prices. Briggs Body sold down
two points on reports of serious eX.
plosion in one of its plants. General
Motors and Dupont also were under
pressure in the early trading. Sulphur
stocks also were heavy. Foreign ex-
changes opened firm, with Italian
