Insufficient Raw Material
 Attention also is called by the newspaper to 12,000 tractors and 40,000,000 roubles (about $24O,- 000,000) worth of other machinery distributed during the year. Failure of the light industries to achieve the schedule figures is laid to lack of raw materials, which shortage is ex- pected to be overcome during the third year of the plan.
 Attention is called to an increase of 60 per cent in the 1880 cotton crop and of 150 per cent in the sugar beet crop.
 ''The national income for 1880 is given as 33,000,000.0O0 roubles,' D tabout s19, 0,000,000) the paper said, "of which two thirds are in the hands of socialized sectors.

CASUALTY LIST HEAVY
IN CHINESE FIGHTING
1000 Reds and 200 Government
Troops Record Of Clash Over
Holding of Missionaries.

6y the Aseocteteo PreSs.
PEIPNG, China, December g.
Severe fighting has occurred during t:::e
last few days between the so-called
first red army and the government
troops which are attempting to secure
release of the American missionary,
Rev. Bert N. Nelson, and the Norwegian
missionary, X. N. Tvedt. Both are held
by Communists at Hwangan, Hupeh
Province.
The government side admits 200
casualties, but claims losses totaling
1000 have been inflicted on the reds.
A telegram from the United States
consul at Hankow states that some of
the enliSSarieS sent to effect release
of the missionaries have themselves
been captured by the reds and are
being held.
A letter from Nelson, dated November
IL, just received by the United States
legation authorities, describes the increas-
ing hardships of his position. He wrote
that he was sttll wearing his Summer
clothes despite the bitter cold, and that
he was being fed on a little rice and
vegetables and only an occasional piece
of meat. The bandits were constantly
threatening to kin him unless his ram
som was paid.
A Chinese relief expedition brought
the missionary, Mrs. L. d. Howard,
and Miss =. Gomersall safely TO Pao-
towchen late this afternoon after res
cuing them from bandits who captured
them last week as they came down the
Yellow River on raft.

HOOVER JOBLESS
FUND LEGISLATION
FACES OPPOSITION
Democratic Leaders Skepti-
cal, While Republicans
Favor Legislation.
Ry the AssocIated press.

By the Associated Press.
The much-talked-of harmony be-
tween the parties in Congress over
emergency relief legislation appeared
today narrowed down one more notch.
So much skeptical comment on the
part of Democratic leaders met Presi-
dent Hcover's recommendation for a
500, 900, 900 to $150,000, 900 unemploy-
ment relief fund, that contest along
party lines on this issue was not i'm
possible. The Republicans moved inn
mediately for action, taking the larger
figure In offering legislation.
It was not the idea of taking the
money out Of the Treasury to benefit
the unemployed that the Democrats
criticized, but rather the Presidents
suggestion that It be turned over for
distribution to the Government depart
ments "upon recommendation of q
committee Of the cabinet and approval
by the President"
They wanted to see where the money
was going, they said, and until shown,
were disposed to be from Missouri"
"n he expects to get that much
money ne win have TO show what he is
going to do with It" was the obServa-
ton Of Democratic Floor Leader Garner
Of the House. Representative Byrns Of
Tennessee, ranking minority member Of
the House Appropriations Committee,
was even more emphatic in disapproval.
Never before, outside of wartime, has
q President asked such power" he said.
Other Democrats joined their position.
On the administration side instead,
the introduction Of bills to carry out
the plan was backed UP by favoring
words.
Wood Sees Success.
"It win have my support, and think
the President viii get the money" said
Chairman Wood Of the Appropriations
Committee of the House. Leader TIL
son termed it "a reasonable request
I'VE viii make our best efforts in
behalf of the Presidents recommends
tions," he added
To a considerable extent these ex-
preSsions on the two sides indicated
the comment which met the whole Of
the Presidents message. The Demo
cratic way of receiving It was tepid,
but there was comparatively little harsh
criticism. The majority Of the regular
Republicans expressed themselves as
well pleased, with a few exceptions
noted by some. Senator Brookhart,
Iowa Republican independent, thought
agricultural relief should have been
recommended along more general lines
and the lone Farmer-Labor member OF
the House, Kvale of Minnesota, said
there was "an awful lot" left to be
desired, but that he liked the tone OF
the message.
The Senate today adopted without
debate a resolution by Senator Ship
stead, Farmer-Labor. Minnesota, re-

FORMER SMITH CO.
OFFICER TEST|F|ES
|. HE BURNED BOOKS
Us. Farquhar Says He Signed
Statement of Denial, Fear
ing Discharge.

The most sensational testimony in
troduced so far in the F. H. Smith Co.
conspiracy case was given today by a
former officer who said that he burned
large number Of books and records
taken from the Smith Co. ofices, and,
later, in fear of losing his job, signed
a statement at the request Of @. Bryan
Pitts, one Of the defendants, denying
the record-burning incident.
The witness, John S. FarQuhar, for
mer secretary of the company, admitted
the statement he signed was false and
said that he had affixed his signature
only after receiving the impression from
Pitts that he would be discharged II he
refused to do so.
The witness also testified that, acting
under instruction from c.. Ebert Ana
dale, another defendant, he had cashed
at least 80 checks made out to cash. u
He said that he gave the money back
to Anadale and that the same money
was returned to him with instructions
to take 1t to the Southern Maryland
Trust Co. and deposit It to Pitts ac-
count there.
Edwards Not Involved.
Faruuhar's testimony did not involve
John H. Edwards, jr, the third de-
fendant.
The three men, all of them former
Smith Co. officers, are charged with q
conspiracy to embezzle large sum OF
money from the company and to de-
stroy allegedly discriminating records.
Farquhar was put through the most
severe croSs-examination of the trial
as Defense Attorney Frank G. Raichle
bitterly assailed his credibility In an
effort to break down his testimony.
Early in 1928, he said, Anadale told
him to remove several boxes of records
from the Offices of the Smith Co. or
Fifteenth street to the basement Of the
Jeffersona Apartments, where Pitts
lived.
He said that he was assisted in this
task by Joseph Howard, a personal serv-
ant of Pitts, who testified to the burning
of the records Monday.
Told to Burn Records.
"After the records had been left at
the jefferson for several months" Far
quhar testified, "PittS and Anadale stop
ped me in the apartment house lobby
one night, told me to get the records
take them back to the Smith Building
and burn them up.
Joe and went to work that night
and moved all of the boxes back to the
basement of the Smith Building. The
boxes were filled with books Of accounts
and correspondence.
I'VE tore up the larger books and
burned the small ones whole. It took
all night. saw Anadale at the office
the next day and told him they had all
been burned. He replied: All right
ct heard nothing more Of the matter

PUBLISHER FOUND
DEAD AT TER FIRE:
-courtIand H. Young, Founder
of Young's Magazine, Was
81 Years Old.
Nv the Associated Press,

BY the Associated Press.
NEW YORK, December 8. Court
land H. Young, wealthy magazine pub
Usher, was found dead today in his
apartment on West Fifty-fifth street,
apparently asphyxiated by smoke from
a fire which swept the living room.
He was discovered lying on the floor
of his bed room, his head almost on
the threshold of the living room.
Mr.. Young, who was 54, founded
Young's Magazine in 1899 and had
published it since. Breezy Stories, yell
low Book and Droll Stories were others
in his list Of publications.
He was born In New Orleans in 1876,
but came to New York many years ago.
For five years Young's marital diff
culties were in the courts intermittently
until in December, 1928, he was granted
a divorce in Paterson, N. j., from Dor
othea R. Campbell, who was then 26.
The body was found by attendants OF
the apartment house who smelled smoke
and forced the door open. The living
room with its rich furnishings was
ruined before firemen could extinguish
the blaze.
Firemen said Young apparently arose
from a chair in the bed room, opened
the living room door and was overcome
on the threshold. A lighted cigarette
was believed to have caused the fire.

.JObless Relief

FUNDS INCREASE
BY $22l,OOO,OOO
Little Prospects for
Tax Cut Seen for
Next Year.
BY WILL p. KENNEDY.

President Hoover today laid be-
fore Congress a balanced budget
calling for expenditures from the
Federal Treasury of $3,932, 2,842,- :
411.07 for the fiscal year 1892, be-
ginning July /, next, an increase
of $221, 100000 over current ap-
propriations. He emphasized that
"the influence on business of hav-
ing the financial affairs of the
Federal Government on a sound
basis is of the utmost Importance.
The budget calls for taxing
every resource of the Government
to relieve unemployment by pro-
viding work on already author
lied projects" the President points
out in his message accompanying
the budget, and declares positive
ly that "this is not a time when
we can afford to embark on new
or enlarged ventures of Govern
ment."
In discussing an expected deficit
for the current fiscal year the
President forecasts early unem-
ployment relief appropriations,
saying that "it viii probably be
necessary for Congress to appro-
pirate additional money for ex-
penditure within the present fiscal
year in order to increase employ
ment and TO provide for the
drought situation" as outlined In
bis message to Congress yester-
day.
He told Congress he was s.satisfIed
that In the absence of further legisla-
tiCn imposing any considerable burden
upon our 1882 finances we can close
that year with . balanced budget"
Reduction Prospects Fade.
The prospect Of continued reduction
in taxes on incomes granted for the
present fiscal year goes a-glimmering
with the explanation BY the President
that the budget is predicated on estt-
mated receipts under the existing In
come tax law, and If they are reduced
by approximately $160 900 900, as by
special legislation for the current year,
"a deficit for 1882 as well as 1881
would now appear to be Inevitable"
He expressed regret that the present
outlook for heavy decrease in probable
income and the necessity to increase
public works and aid TO employment
does not warrant the continuation Of
the reduction at the present time"
The budget contains $1OO, ,000, 600 for
the revolving loan fund of the Federal
Farm Board, tor which no amount ap-
large items Of increase are: For the
veterans administration. $4,000 600;
for the Shipping Board, $35, ,0O0, 900, and
for the Federal road building program,

9h Million Fund
From Congress
Is Included.
$l,5OO,OOO is HELD
FOR CITY CENTER
Schedule Based ON
Present Rate of
$l.7O in ID. C..
BY JAMES e. CHINN.

The financial budget OF the
District for the 1882 fiscal year
recommending appropriations to-
falling $47,796,o47, was transmitted
to Congress today by the Bureau
Of the Budget.
Though $6O1 1886 less than the
amount appropriated for the cur
rent fiscal year, the new budget,
in reality, is the largest ever sub
mitted because of a provision re-
serving $1,5O0,000 for beginning
construction of buildings in the
municipal center area. This ST.
100000 reservation, against which
no appropriation charges are to
be made yet, would bring the
actual 1892 budget to an unprece-
dented total of $49, 1885, ,047.
The new budget is predicated on
continuance of the existing $1.70
tax rate, and a contribution by the
Federal Government toward the
expenses of the District OF $780,
OOO-the same amount appropri-
ated for the 1881 fiscal year. The
total of appropriations recon-
mended and reserved is but $685.
425 short of the amount sought by
the Commissioners in the final
estimates, which amounted to
SAC, $780, ,622.
Surplus to Be Used.
Thus the Budget Bureau has con-
tinued the policy 1t introduced last year
of approving requests for appropriations
which careful estimating has shown the
District can support without raising the
tax levy, instead of reducing the esti-
mates of the Commissioners and thereby
allowing surplus to accumulate-a
practice severely condemned in Con-
gress several years ago.
While the 1882 budget win draw
heavily on the surplus revenues now In
the United States Treasury to the credit
of the District because Of the Budget
Bureaus former policy, it will not COM
pletely exhaust these funds. District
officials have calculated that should
Congress approve the budget in its pres
ent form, and continue the $4,000, 900
Federal contribution, there will be
$402, 900 remaining In the surplus reve-
nueS at the close OF the 1892 fiscal year,
in addition to the required cash operat-
ing fund which the District keeps at
$4,000, 900.
This encouraging financial outlook Is
in contrast with conditions represented
earlier in the year as neceSsitating an
increase in local tax rates. Subsequent
discovery of an error in accounting,
however, revealed sufficient surplus reve-
nueS to support the record breaking
budget without tax increase, and, in
addition, leave a balance of nearly
100000.
Improvements Provided.
The 1882 budget provides a number
Of outstanding public improvements of
major Importance, and continues appro-
priations necessary for the progressive
