NATIONS BUDGET is
READY TO MAKE UP
SAYS VIM. BRUCKART.

In a few weeks the nations bud
get, gigantic financial wheel on
which turn the cOgs of government,
will be in preparation for the next
fiscal year, a year which will include
the next presidential campaign.
Speculation about the country this
year concerns the nature of the bud
get-will it indicate increased eX-
penditures by the government or
will it show curtailed expense and
a return to pre-New Deal spending?
William Bruckart, capitol CORES
pOndent, whose washington Digest"
column appears in the Miner each
week, discusses the budget for us
in this issue. In clear, understand
able terms, he tells us of some
possibilities as to the form the
future budget will take. And you'll
be interested in his description of
how a budget is prepared and
passed.

1t has been figured that there
are 770,12S federal job holders
in this country at the present
time. The placing of these
forces, should the country
again become prosperous and
federal relief projects not be re-
quired, will be a serious prob
lem. A Chicago paper has
figured that if the Washington

parade it would require 81
hours to pass a given point at

dumped Alison's luggage in the porch

inside the house before he started up
and drove away.

A widow might mean anything-40

her no inkling. Alison, telling herself
that she was being selfish, had tried to

a telegram of congratulation.
