DEMANDS
CITY BUDGETS
Be BALANCED

An unprecedented proposal to
give governors of States power to
compel bankrupt cities to balance
their budgets and effect eco.
nomies-approved by advisers Of
President Roosevelt-was being
considered by the House Judici-
ary Committee today.
The provision would be written
into proposed legislation author
izing more than 1000 cities and
other taxing districts in the coun-
try to go through bankruptcy in
the Federal courts.
With the Administration lend
ing a friendly ear to the appeals
of cities forced to default on bond
issues, the House Committee was
expected to approve the Wilcox
bill allowing cities to become
bankrupt upon approval of IS
per cent Of their creditors.
Balk at Economies
The principle of the measure
has already been approved by the
committee, with some members
absent, following a conference be-
tween a delegation from the COM
mittee and the President.
The budget balancing proposal
arose out Of claims that many
big cities in financial straits have
failed to effect needed economies
in their government.
Representative McKeoWn (D0
Of Oklahoma, author of the cor
poration bankruptcy bill to which
the Wilcox bill may be attached,
is sponsoring the amenment. He
said:
1--WE are proposing that cities
over 100000 inhabitants which
default on their Indebtedness
and take advantage Of the leg
iSlatiOn to compromise their
debts with creditors be placed
under the supervisory power Of
the Governor.
CURB FAVORED
"'My amendment provides
that a certificate from the
Governor must be given to the
Federal Court stating that the
default by cities is unavoidable.
Then, when the city is declared
bankrupt, 1 would give the Gov
ernOr power to name an agent
who would have to approve
every voucher issued by the
city. Many of these cities have
not economical at all.
"The President is against
lending money to pay their
running expenses for firemen,
policemen, and schools. That
won't go in any bill reported
from the Judiciary Committee"
Despite th9 fact that leaders
0-e pushing the special session
toward a close, advocates of the
cities bankruptcy proposal hope
for action.

Special Dispatch to The Star.

Special Dispatch to The Star.
NEW YORK, October 7.-Thoush the
news from Washington regarding cot
ton loans caused an advance of 35
points at one time today, the market
came under heavy hedge pressure and
ended only l to 5 points better than
yesterday. Almost all the early i'm
provement disappeared under weight Of
offerings. Spots were unchanged at
$50
The announcement of details in the
Government plan to assist growers Of
commodities, beginning with cotton, had
stimulating effect ON prices in early
trading. Details followed very closely
those originally proposed two weeks ago
but the effect on the market was de-
cldely less than when the announce
ment was first made.
The improvement met cotton from
various directions and the volume of
buying proved less than was the case on
the first announcement two weeks ago.
This was partly attributable to q
tendency on the part of most profess
sionals to await Mondays monthly
crop estimate from Washington.
Perfect weather throughout the South
for both maturing the crop and harvest
ing brought offers from the interior and
spot interests became persistent sellers
of hedges at the advance. From the
character of private estimates, there
seems to be little expectation of any
pronounced change in Government
ngures from those issued a month ago,
when the indicated crop was placed at
l2,414,000 bales. The fact that the
average guess Of members of the Cotton
Exchange was raised 100000 bales or
more reflected the expectation that the
Crop Reporting Board would make
slight upward revision in the indicated
crop.

This year. however. it has been very
marked, particularly in the past three
months. and was especially noteworthy
for September
In August this year there were 472
business defaults for S42.776.049. For
September the reduction in the num-
Der, compared with the preceding
month was equivalent to PAP per cent,
while the decline in liabilities was 48.9

inSolvencies enumerated were 2.182. in
volving $56. .127.634 in liabilities. Sep
tember defaults this year were below
those of 1882 by 49 per cent and liza
bilities in that month this year were
611 per cent less than they were a
year ago.
For the third quarter Of this year
the improvement has been very marked
The decline in that period for this
