Government Cost
+. Reductions Urged

WASHINGTON, Oct. II. Up
Pres. Hoover plans to lay before
congress a 1888 budget stripped OF
every cent consonant with the
obligations Of the government"
In an effort to bring expendi-
lures and revenues into closer
relationship he has demanded that
every principal government officer
revise downward estimates for the
next fiscal year. : Meritorious and
unmeritorious projects alike are to
be shelved.
Asks Public Support
He has also asked the aid Of pub
lie opinion in support Of drastic
economies"
Standing yesterday before a group
Of newspapermen gathered for his
regular press conference, MI. Hoover
said:
In times when the income Of the
people Is reduced and when taxes
OF loans may stifle economic recov-
cry there is only one course of
sound fiscal policy and that Is to
reduce the expenditures Of the gov
eminent to the last cent consonant
with the obligations Of the govern
ment."
Deficit Large
Before him, the president had the
statement of the treasury showing
a deficit for the first three months
OF the present fiscal year since July
l totaling $500, LOG 900. This is ap-
p~roximately S485, 900 900 more than

mean LEVEL
OF l9O5-'24
MAINTAINED

NEW YORK, Oct. l7.-tR-An-
Uses Of stock market fluctuations
extending back for 20 years show
that the violent storms OF the
past two years have merely driven
the market into seas regularly
piled previous to the bullish adj
venture which ended in 1929.
Even at the low point recorded
o fortnight ago. the average level
OF leading industrial shares was
around the mean level OF the
period from 1905 to 1924 inclusive.
The long range view Of the stock
market, therefore Is distinctly
less disturbing to the student Of
finance than the foreshortened
outlook of the recruits who flocked
into the market for the first time
during the boom years.
Rail shares Low
1t Is true that the rail shares
at their lowest, a. measured by
price averages kept over a long
period Of years, and adjusted for
changes In capitalization appar-
emily fell 70 q level unpenetrated
SINCE the 1905. On the other
hand, utilities fell back only 70
the levels OF 1927.
Probably the industrials. repre-
senting the largest group and the
medium ground between the older
rail group and the newer utility
group. provide the best medium
measurement over the past quarter
century. Industrial averages dip
ped 10 around the bottom level Of
mild business recession, and prices
were not then considered unusual.
ly low.
A chart OF industrial share price
movements for the years l905-24
showed intermittent swings Of 20
points or more on either side OF
the low level reached early this
month.
Academic Question
hhe war boom In 1916 lifted the
average about z points above the
peak reached in 1905. and the post
war initiation boom in 1sIa carried
1t about Is points above FOR q few
months. On the other hand, the
low reached in 1921 was within
10 points Of the bottoms Of the
20-year period reached in 1907 and
in 1914. The rebound from the
1921 bottom furthermore, carried
the average to a peak In 1922 only
approximating that of 1905. The
average then reacted somewhat
and made no further rapid upward
progress until the ls24-29 bull
market got under way.
Whether stocks are now too low,
and II SO how much, is an ex-
tremely academic question at this
time.
