EXPENDITURES
OF RFC FALL
BELOW BUDGET
Reduced Needs Believed
Cause of Decrease in
Borrowings.
Copyright. 1884. by united pressl

WASHINGTON, April 23.-The
governments most important relief
agency-the Reconstruction Finance
Corporation - is falling nearly,
s2OOO,OOO.OOO under budget estimates
in its relief activities because of re-
duced needs.
Administration officials attributed
the decrease to greater than ex-
pected improvement in business ac-
tivity which has allowed some Dor
rowerS to repay loans and made is
unnecessary for other businesses to
ask for money.
When President Roosevelt COM
piled his budget figures for the fiscal
year which ends June $50, he set
So ,969, 100000 as the outside next
expenditures of the RFC, a monthly
average of $325,000,000.
In nine months of the fiscal year
the RFC had actually spent only
81 .287 ,354,900 or about 40 cents for
every dollar estimated in the budget.
At this rate it was estimated that
net expenditures would amount to
$1,716, 100000 or 100000 under
estimates. 1t would appear that
Chairman Jesse H. Jones recent eS-
innate that RFC expenses would fall
half billion under the budget was
extremely conservative.
The extent to which the business
improvement has permitted a cur
tailment of government relief is in
dicated by the RFC expenditures.
More than half Of the governments
relief money was slated to be paid
out through the RFC. Expenditures
for relief through other agencies
such as public works, emergency
conservation and Tennessee Valley
also are far under estimates but
show more money has been spent
than by the RFC.
Banks and other borrowers are
repaying loans at the rate of
100000 daily and these payments
are expected to reach the billion
dollar mark by June 30, compared
with estimates of three-quarter bill
lion dollars. In the first nine months
they were 1927, 33O,234

Different cities in the county took
similar action by regulating the use

found a handbag which contained
