Washington-The vast outburst of
campaign oratory which is about to
descend upon us will undoubtedly
pass through the ears of some per-
sons willing to believe everything they
hear. but it is likely to encounter a
much larger group of folks who won't
believe a word of it.
The extraordinary performance of
the administrative and legislative
branches of government during the
great budget balancing act may be
counted on to attract many new con-
verts to the latter habit.
Apparently no one in Washington
was really kidded about it. But it
seems as if everyone had been earn
estly engaged in trying to kid every
one else into believing that congress
was really balancing the budget
Everyone was, at least, until the day
before the senate actually passed the
huge new tax bill.

estimates Of February were no longer
valid. Business had grown worse and
would raise much less than they were
expected to raise last February and
the receipts from existing taxes were
bound to be lower than anticipated
then.

some 5000, 1000, 900 in debt payments
which we probably won't get. Dexter

and deliberately calculated that the

assuming $300,0OO,00O cut in ex-

Apparently everyone from the

frightened to say anything or do any

taxes would raise 1865 ,OO0, 900 in the
next fiscal year and that new taxes
and economies of $1,241 100000 were
required was still official. Tydings
of Maryland had been demanding
new estimates, only to be blocked by
the leaders.
But late that same day Senator
David A. Reed of Pennsylvania, fresh
from the white house, was warning
the senate frantically that 1t must
not pass the tax bill 1t intended to
pass that evening because it would
miss balancing the budget by at least
$500 100000, which he said would
mean forcing us off the gold stand

PRODUCTION OF STEEL
SHOWS FURTHER DROP
By the Associated Press.

By the Associated Press
NEW YORK, September despite
rising commodity prices and other
stimulating factors, the steel industry
exhibits little or no indications that
the expected September upturn will
attain more than small proportions,
Iron Age said yesterday. For the entire
country the weeks ingot production is
estimated at 13 per cent of capacity
against IA per cent in the preceding
three weeks.
Shipments Of some important steel
producers" stated the review, reached
the lowest point of the depression in
the past week. Ingot production has
declined rather sharply in the Pitts
burgh and Wheeling districts, and is
not above 10 per cent in the valleys.
Small gains in sales of bars, wire
products and galvanized sheets at Chi
cago and Of sheets, cotton ties and
other wire products at Birmingham
constitute the principal upward move
ment in demand for steel products.
Pig iron sales have expanded at Cleye-
land, New York, Cincinnati and in
New England, but the total volume is
below normal for this time of year.
Steel prices for the fourth quarter
will soon be announced, probably with
out change, though there Is some ques-
ton as to sheets in view of recent
weakness, which has extended from the
common grades to some of the special
finishes.

BONDHOLDERS EXPECT
INTEREST MONEY TODAY
BY the Associated Press.

NEW YORK, September 1-While
there are some shaded spots on both
the domestic and foreign bond pictures,
holders of senior securities in the United
States are expecting interest payments
today or some time during next
month, of approximately S280,0O0, 900.
In some instances, notably South
American, bondholders will do no cou-
pom clipping and will have to wait for
readjustmentS, reorganiZationS and
compromise settlements, or until the
debtors are able to raise the funds
with which to meet the defaulted
charges.
Bond prices on the New York Stock
Exchange generally indicate the expec-
tation or non-expectation of interests
and maturity payments. There are
some loans. however, where funds are
already in the hands of the fiscal
agents, that are being quoted at from
one-third to less than one-half of their
par values.
