Deficits Far Exceed Surplus
Total Over Period of
20 Years.
BY CHAS. p. SHAEFFER,
Associated Press Financial Writer,

A record OF the Governments s
financing operation over the last 20
fiscal years shows 8 deficits and II
surpluses. But the deficits far ex-
ceed the surpluses and were sufficient
to increase the total public debt by
more than S25. 700 100000
Before the war, in 1915. Govern
ment expenditures were less than
$500, 900 900 per annum, and were
balanced by receipts. AT that time
the public debt of the Nation was
only $l,200,000. 900. Then, beginning
with the war year of 1918. expendi-
lures were jumped to more than S12,-
600 600 900 and the year following to
more than $18,5OO, 100000, resulting
in deficits of more than $4,000. 900 900
and $4,000 100000, respectively,
which carried the public debt to a
peak hgure of s26,597, 900, 900 on
August 81 1919, level unScaled un-
til late last month.
From that point on, however. there
were IL consecutive years in which
surpluses were shown which were in
strumental in pairing the total in
debtedneSs by more than $4,000 000,-
900 to s16,185. .OOO,O 900 as of June 80.
1880.
Since that time. however, the cumu-
lative deficits have boosted the gross
public debt to S27.053, ,14l.414 as of
the close of business on last June 30.
In the table that follows the total
Government receipts and expenditures
are given for fiscal years. together

New York Expected
To C. ct Attractive
Bid on New Bonds
By the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
NEW YORK, July 7.-All eyes
in the bond market are turned
toward the $72,000,000 issue of
New York City serial bonds that
will be placed on the market
next week. 1t will be the largest
fiotation of the year in the State
and municipal field.
The city should be able to get
an unusually attractive price for
the bonds in view of current
market conditions, bond men
say. Demand for municipal and
other Government bonds re-
mains keen in the absence of
new corporate financing in vol
ume.
All United States Treasury
bonds are selling on yield
basis of 3 per cent or less for
the first time in years. If the
recent trend in Government
bonds continues, bond men
would not be surprised to see
the Government doing long-term
financing on 2l2 per cent basis,
and a reduction in the long-term
rate of interest should prove
eventually a powerful lever to-
ward business recovery, econo-
miStS say.
