FEDERAL BUDGET
REDUCTION SEEN
Cut Is Expected to Come
in Emergency Rather Than
Regular Activities.

With the administration striving
to present to Congress a reduced Fed
eral budget for the next fiscal year,
indications today were that any sub
stantial curtailment will be likely to
come in emergency rather than reg
ular governmental activities.
Just how far the Government will
60 in its stride toward retrench-
ment. however, will not be known
definitely until the budget message,
embodying a complete picture of the
Governments estimated income and
outgo. is laid before the lawmakers
early in January.
and the session gets under way, there
will be other factors developing that
may have . bearing on Government
finances.
Work Is Being Speeded.
The Budget Bureau is still in the
midst Of the job Of going over de-
partmental estimates. Although formal
presentation Of the budget as a whole
is not made until Congress assemblies
in January, subcommittee Of the
House Appropriations Committee will
begin executive sessions by the middle
Of December in order to have some
Of the regular annual supply bills in
shape for the House when it convenes
The estimates for the departments to
be dealt with in these early supply bills
will be made available by the Budget
Bureau to the House subcommittee
for the pre-session study.
In budget statement on Septem-
Der 80. President Roosevelt disclosed
that actual governmental expenditures
for the current fiscal year are ex-
pected to be considerably less than
was estimated originally. While the
estimated expenditures for the cur
rent year originally were placed at
$8,520,413,609, the September state
ment estimated actual expenditures
would be s7,752, 1892 900.
Deficit Less Than Estimate.
The statement also showed the
deficit for the current year would be
substantially less than originally esti-
mated.
The current appropriations included
the $4,000 100000 work-relief fund.
The size Of the next budget, there
fore. is likely to depend largely on
what recommendations the admins
tration decides to make to Congress
in January as to the scope and policy
to be followed next year in many OF
these emergency activities.
Aside from the budget, there will
be legislation proposed in Congress
having a bearing on Government
finances. such as cash payment Of
the soldiers bonus.

And to the string was tied a
note. On the note was written:

When the bank crash of 1888

practice those days was, as he
puts it, "just pin money" The

bravely.
Yesterday they were found in
