WHAT'S GOING ON
IN WASHINGTON
Balancing the Budget Still
Remains Governments
Greatest Problem.
By WILLIAM BRuckART

Washington. Although the govern
ment's fiscal year is only little more
than half gone II is apparent now
that the treasury deficit next June ~
will exceed s1.T50.Oo0.0O0. That is why
80 much talk has been heard lately
about balancing the budget.
Budget balancing can be accom-
pllshed In only two ways either more
taxes must be laid so that more In.
come Is received By the treasury, OF
expenses must be reduced to make
the government live within Its income.
The talk of the last few days has
been on both sides, but the cold faet
is that nothing congress can do prior
to ITS expiration on March can pre-
vent the government being on the
short end of its finances when the
current fiscal year ends June 3D.
Thus. leaders In congress and treas
ury authorities are moving along with
plans, or rather with ideas. for they
have not taken the shape OF plans.
for raising enough revenue to balance
the budget during the fiscal year that
opens on July |. 1898 It must be said.
however, that more speed will have
to be displayed than has been shown
thus far In the session II the desired
end can be accomplished for the z, next
fiscal year.
The trouble is that there are too
many schools of thought In congress.
and there Is an unwillingness among
many of them to give up tlA4af - q
programs So the necessary strength
for passage can be concentrated. This,
however, has happened hefere.. When
the situation gets critical, there Will
be cooperation.

Develop Fear Complex.

With respect to the Democratic
plans for reorganization. however. a
fear complex has developed among the
leaders. RI Is not hard to understand
President Elect Roosevelt Is giving the
subject thorough consideration during
his sojourn In the Southland good
many of his party In congress are
afraid. therefore. that they may be
wrong If they speak too early or too
often about what can be done In re.
organizing the government
This much can be stated. however. and
with assurance: II there are definite
plans for reorganization presented In
the, current session of congress. other
than those ordered into effect by Presi.
dent Hoover, they will not appear on
the floor of either house until very
late In February Democratic leaders

cretionnry powers that probably VIII
be given to the Chief Executive for
use In shifting, abolishing or remak-
Ing governmental units.
But Republican leaders In the SEN
ate and in the house as we'll tell me
that they, are not disposed to raise
much serious objection to whatever
proposals the Democrats bring forth,
u is Democratic child. according to
the Republican view. and many OF the
RepublicanJeade say they are en-
tirely willing to LET the child be reared
as Democratic responsibility. Some
of them go so far as to say that the
child may turn out TO be an ugly
duckling" for the reason that reor-
ganlzation of the government struc-
ture is surely not as easy. as 1t sounds
Examination OF congressional rec
ords will show that very great many
OF the bureaus, divisions. commissions,
boards and what-not agencies were
the direct result of congressional
initiative. And they were the offspring
of Democrats and Republicans In
about equal number. Picture for your.
self the Influences and the pressure
that will be exerted every time one OF
them is to be eliminated. including de-
struetion of the Jobs that go with 1t.

Detachable Trimming Is

The Paris designers have learned
within the last few months. at least
one good American dEessmakiHR trick
1t is the detachable trimming trick

may be made to wear a dozen dis
guises, "a dozen color schemes, or a
dozen necklInes with Just few ges-
lures.
American women nave long known
the method. A new kind of collar, a
scarf tied in new way-and they
have made plain dress into a fash.
lonable frock; and above all, a frock
which looks different from the way II
looked before. 1t is bit of cleverness

Question OF Jobs.

AS matter OF fact, this question
of Jobs Is the thing that makes reor-
ganization next to impossible that Is,
reorganization OF sufficient conse-
quence 10 reduce government expendi-
lures. which Is the only real purpose
of reorganization. The effect Is felt not
-afune here In the Capital City. but II
reaches In the hinterland to- the
farthest point. And every spot that is
touched Immediately becopes a charge
Of dynamite that is ready to explode
In proximity to the senator or repre-
sentative who supports reorganiza
ton plan which takes away Jobs.
From these facts, II must be obvi
GUS ia every one that the job The
President Elect insofar as reorgani-
cation Is concerned presents tough
problem. A sample Of the work cut
out for him, II he carries out his party
platform, may be Ind from the under
current of talk that greeted Mr.
Hoover's announcement OF executive
orders making host OF changes 10
the government setup.
President Hoover's- chgnHes were
made by virtue OF autheEitystipen him
In the so-called economy act. passed
last June. -~f3ut string was tied to the
authority. The President had to tell
congress what he had done In the way
OF reorganization, and congress re-
served the right to make them In
operative.
The Presidents messages, making
known what he had done. had hardly
been read until Senator King Dem.)
of Utah. had introduced resolution
holding up the operation of the execu.
tive orders. He said some of the
changes were good and some were
bad. so all should be checked. In tht
meantime, other senators and repre-
sentatives were saying much the same
thing. But none of the senators and
none of the representatives seemed te
hit upon the same changes as being
good or as being bad. The effect OF
the outside pressure was plain.
And so 1t Is likely tu~ be with any
reorganization program. There are
those who will favor Change A but
will oppose Change B. and some Of
these favoring Change B will fight of
| effort to make Change G, and so on.

CHOOSE NECKLINE
THAT is BECOMING

The best advice on the subject OF
what sort Of neckllne to have is 10
choose the one most f1attering to you.
Those that are high In the front and
nothing much of anything behind are
chic, but since SO few Of US entertain
or are entertained formally, something
less extreme lis really better. An
amusing fashion Is to have high bach
with an opening clear to the waistline.
Another seasonable suggestion Is the
dinner hat II lis the thing to wear
some sort of headcoverlng, so-called
BY courtesy, since these tiny pancakes
do not cover the head at all.

New Sources Of Revenue.

II Is yet too early to offer a sug-
gestion whether the manufacturers
sales tax or some increase In the low
err brackets of the income taxes Will
be employed, or whether both OF them
will be used. Besides a tax on beer,
and =when1ft=ts legalfzed, the 3two
sources mentioned present about the
only new places to which congress
can 20 to get revenue In quantity.
There can be no assumption either
that the current session Of congress
will pass revenue law, In which
event the probabilities Of balanced
budget for the fiscal year beginning
next July | are obviously pushed
further back.
Attention must be called to the cir
cumstance that II congress we're to
pass new revenue law before 1t ad
tourns on March 4. the revenue It
would add to the treasury income
would be only through the months OF
March, April. May and June or one
third of this fiscal year. This means.
OF course, that whatever the tax Is. thr
expected deficit can be altered very
little.
But II congress passed revenue
act In this session, the whole OF the
fiscal year beginning July would be
ahead and the receipts for that pc
rlod naturally would be increased. II
no law Is passed now and the ques-
ton Is not taken up until later-in
an extra session, for example-each
days delay means that much less rev.
enue for the next fiscal year, because
an excise tax such as the manufactnr-
ers' sales tax begins producing as
soon as 1t Is signed as law by the
President.
From these facts 1t becomes appar-
ent TINT congress Is faced with a de-
cidedly ticklish situation ms regards
the revenue needs of the government.
Which leaves hope OF complete sue
cess only In the direction OF economy
In government expenses. The appro-
priations. now being considered, are
going to be trimmed and there Is go
Ing to be some semblance of an
economy program, but the best judg-
ment now is that the total OF the cuts
In government expenses will be only 0
couple of hundred millions. And that
Is not enough to make much OF i
dent In the deficit. Further. such
economies as lafe accomplished will
apply not to the current fiscal year
but to the period beginning July I
