SALES TAX HELD
BUDGET NEED
- Of j. 8.

Government expenditures this
year will be considerably greater
than the $4,122 ,9O9, 900 estimate
submitted to Congress.
Officials declared today the in
creased expenditures would be a
larger factor than the falling
off in receipts expected to in
crease after January /.
The miscellaneous taxes enacted
in June have not yet become
fully productive and there will
be no additional revenue from the
income taxes until after March
as.
Maybe Sales Tax
The general impression existed
htat the Treasury will recommend
additional tax legislation probobly
in the form of sales tax.
The Treasury's estimate of the
1888 deficit was 81 ,416,900,000 be-
fore enactment of the new reve-
nue. act, designed to raise addi-
tional revneue of more than ST.
900, OOO,O
This estimate will not be rea-
1ized because of decreased bust
ness and failure of many of the
1evieS to yild the amounts eX-
pected. Practically the only new
tax that is bringing in the
amount estimated is that on
safety deposit vaults.
Treasury's Hope
The Treasury's hope for balanc-
dng the budget was for a reduc-
%ion of $3.50, 100000 in the esti-
mated expenditures, but then the
relief bill was passed, calling for
expenditures of $4,000, 900.
Appropriations for the current
fiscal year totaled $4,000, 900 600,
without allowance for postal reve-
nues or savings under the econ
omy act. Postal revenues were
estimated at $725 900 900. a high
figure, while Federal pay econo-
mics were expected to save $780,
100000.
If both estimates prove correct,
the net appropriations would
total $3,925, 100000 for the cur
rent year.
Bureau Mergers Seen
Any real saving in appropria-
lions for regular departmental
activities must await a reorganiza-
ton and consolidation of Govern
ment functions. This could not
be accomplished in time to affect
the 1933-1934 appropriations.

A GOLDEN PRIZE

In a article in the American Mercury,
Chairman Harold West of the Maryland Pub
lie Service Commission, observes that the
control of utilities by government instead of
state regulation is golden prize for politi-
clans to strive for because sit would open up
the possibility of creating perhaps the great
est political machine the world has ever
seen =. !. The present governmental machine
would be toy alongside it. !"
The statistics bear him out. The value
of the power industry's plant and equipment
in June, 1881, was $12,250,000,0O0 1t had
gross operating revenues Of $2,125,000,000.
It spent close to billion dollars for new con-
struction in 1880. It has 275,000 employees
who received $435, 100000 for their services
in 1880 It had, last June, 20,331 $50 custo-
mers and 84,50O,OOO people lived in electrical
" lighted homes. In 1880 the industry s
taxes, of which one-third went to the FEEDER
al government and two-thirds to the states,
totalling about $2OO,OOO,OOO. AS Chairman
West says, sthe power industry would be a
good one to start with" from the standpoint
of the politicians.
Thus, many of the attacks on the utilities,
Sin the public interest" may not be so un-
selfish as they seem. The opportunities for
political patronage and for extending the
bureaucracy that public ownership of the
electric industry would provide, are almost
incalcuable Will the people be fooled?

THE PUBLIC's INTEREST

The public has far greater interest in
the railroads than it realizes.
Nearly three billion dollars of life insur-
ance funds are invested in railroad secur-
tiles and mutual savings banks account for
$1,65O,OOO,00O more. This makes total of
$4,000, 600, OOO-one-f fourth of the total net
capitalization of all American railroads.
Thus, the safety of the rails is intimately re-
lated to the protection standing behind g.
900 life insurance policies and 100000
savings accounts
In the opinion of General w. w. After
bury of the Pennsylvania Railroad, the joint
benefits to be anticipated from the Railroad
Credit corporation, the wage adjustment and
the Reconstruction Finance corporation
should be extremely helpful in preventing
further defaults on railroad bonds this year.
But, this being the case, we must not lose
sight of the railroads fundamental difficult
ties, largely brought on by regulation and
taxation which is not made to apply equally
to competing transportation agencies.
The outcome of the railroad problems will
be up to the public. If it demands fair treat
ment for the rails which is the same thing
as fair treatment for itself-the situation
can be remedied If it does not, the future of
our greatest single industry is dark indeed.

late cause, still remains a matter of conjec-
ture Fact remains that some surer means Of
warning must be installed.

SCHOOL ELECTIONS

School district elections will be held
next Saturday afternoon. Whispering cam
paigns now being the rule, apparently, bet
ter not take any chances on the election go
ing the way you think it ought to. Go to the
polls and vote. In the Kennewick district,
at the time of going to press, no one has
announced his intention of opposing F. J..
Arnold, whose term will expire. Nor, for
that matter, has campaign developed in
either of the lower valley districts. How
ever, with the need for particular care in
school management imperative this year, it
becomes more than ever duty which should
not be shirked.

Pays to Put SoWs
on Clean Ground
Means Assured Increase in
Size of LitterS.

BY GEORGE HENDERSON, County
Agent at Large. Colorado Agricultural
College Extension Service.-WNU Service
Sanitation spells more pigs saved
per litter for many eastern Colo
RADIO hog growers. For instance.
arrangements made by two farmers
to have their sows farrOwed on clean
ground, brought much better results
than year ago.
Fred p. Fassler, who lives near
Akron. had II sows narrowing on
new ground in the spring. They
saved 100 pigs-about 8 per litter.
The last two litters contained ten
pigs each, and there were no runts
in the whole bunch, according to E.
]. Meadows, Washington county az
ricultural extension agent, who has
aided Fassler in obtaining better re-
suits. Last year, on old ground,
Fassler's 16 sows only saved 96 pigs.
II. A. Michael, Sedgwick county
farmer, who had difficulty in rails
ing hogs the year before, was able
to save Sc pigs from II sows by
moving the sows to new ground be-
fore they farrowed. He plans to
use a pasture for his pigs where no
hogs have been for two years, ac-
cording to G. +. McCrimmon. county
extension agent.
Changing the hog lots to new
ground is probably the best thing
farmers can do to increase the size
of the litters.

Terminated Oats Found
of Little Real Value

A few years ago considerable at
tentlon was paid to providing poul-
try with succulence especially dur
ing the winter months. The common
methods were to supplement the
rations with bulky materials such
as cabbage, stock beets, etc. Then
came the sprOutlng oat craze and
later the use of terminating oats.
The practice of using this type of
material in ratlons for egg produc-
ton was based upon the fact that
poultry apparently relished this
form OF food. On the other hand.
experimental tests were lacking and
those which were conducted failed
to produce the expected results.
Professor Carrick of Purdue uni
versity reports the results of three
years test with terminated oats In
laying rations. The average result
for the three year test was about
eight eggs per hen more for the
fiocks fed terminated oats. Accord
ing to Professor Carrick the slight
difference in egg production is not
sufficient to Justify much expense
for labor or equipment to feed these
products and that 1T appears pos
slble that the general farmer can
expect to gain little. If anything. by
feeding germinated oats to his flock,
and 1t seems doubtful that special
lied poultry keepers will profit from
such feeding practices. Missouri
