The political conclusions Of this ad-
mirer Of the President were:
In the election Of 1884 any candi-
date with a Democratic label who
promised to uphold the President was
elected automatically. This will not
be true in 1886. The voters in the
farming section and the small towns
will thresh the wheat from the chaff.
"To say that the farmers of the
West may be i0ith the President
does not mean that they are with
the New Dealers whose only in
crest in State and national poll
tics is that it leads them to the
political pie counter. Neither is
it meant to imply that they can
be Uon oDer by any such slogan
as: 'Saue the Constitution

a more understanding light behind
the Presidents latest farm assurances
and the corn-hog vote than anything
yet offered by the New Dealers.

apparently had aided many States to
improve their financial standings to-
day over depression year figures.
Results of survey showed that
diminution of ready revenue, taken

With but few exceptions, the States
reduced ordinary expenditures.
In others where balance sheets for
1894 and 1885 compared unfavorably
with 1929, last of the "easy money
tax years. the difference apparently
was traceable to two major causes:
1. Sale Of bond issues or extra ap-
preparations for financing large public
works projects.
2. Indebtedness incurred In raising
money for relief purposes.

miracle of brain surgery, by which
portions Of the skull are removed,
cured of their ills outside, and restored
safely to the head hours or even
weeks later. was described before the
American College of Surgeons here
today.
The technique is a step in the direc-
ton of taking out diseased parts and
putting them back after they are
cured. The brain surgery has been
under development for several years
at the University of California Medi-
cal School, and was explained by DR..
Howard C. Naffziger, head Of the
department Of survery at the univer-
sity, and DR.. o. w. Jones, jr.
Two brain troubles are cured In this
manner. One is tumors of the skull,
both cancerous and benign. The other
is infections of the skull.
Bone Sterilized and Replanted.
In tumors the affected part of the
bone is removed, the entire growth
going with it. The humorous tissues
are then removed from the bone.
Then the bone Is sterilized and Is
ready for immediate replanting In
its place in the head.
It was not known until few years
ago, DR.. Naffziger said, that can
cerous bone so treated could be re-
planted with safety. But the sterili-
zation, done by boiling In water, COM
pletely removed the danger Of the
cancer recurring.
Formerly bone gratis were used for

Be Near 1855.
RY = RUSSELL YOUNG.

President Roosevelt plans to trim
the budget for the next f1scal year oy
slashing recovery and relief appro-
pr;ations. it was indicated late yes
terday. but actual figures will not ce
available for about six weeks.
Deeply immersed in the budget
problem, the President has concluded
1t would be better for him to postpone
a final decision as to the actual sum
Of next years expenditures.
The President conferred yesterday
with Secretary of the Treasury Nor
genthau and Acting Budget Director
Bell. Bell said, after the conference.
The regular budget probably will be
the same as this year. although there
may be some slight increases due TO
new duties imposed upon some units
by new legislation"
The amount needed for the So
called old established departments OF
the Government is about $1,000 ,000,-
600. It was also disclosed there would
be no reduction in the requirements
Of the funded debt which was 81 ,30O,-
600 900 for the current year.
Therefore, economies which are to
be put into effect must be made in
the matter of recovery and relief
Some advance estimates concerning
this part of the budget indicate that
$4,000, 100000 would meet the de-
mands. but the President has made
no commitments and will reserve
his decision virtually until the time
arrives for submitting his budget te
the next Congress.
The President is required by law
to send his budget to Congress early
in January. After his budget con-
ference yesterday it was intimatee
the President would take his time II
arriving at conclusions. Secretary
Morgenthau, commenting later, saie
Mr.. Roosevelt would reach no deci'
sion as to the total amount until thu
very last minute.
The Presidents conference yester'
day with Secretary Morgenthau anc
Budget Director Bell was the first o.
s4series he will hold with adninistra

THE skull" he said, "is the one
place where you can remove the
tissue that harbors the tumor, sterilize
the bone and replant it at once"
The infections Of the skull are
handled differently. The infected bone
is removed, sterilized, and put away
for periods running sometimes into
weeks, while the infection in the
brain covering about the site of the
removed piece gets well. Then the
piece of skull is put back In place.
New Glaucoma Operation.
DR.. Conrad Sreens of New York
City described a new operating tech
nique for curing glaucoma, an eye
trouble which causes speedy blindness.
The patients, he said, may be up and
about the day after the operation,
although the eye requires some time
to heal.
Glaucoma is due to pressure Of the
LIQUID in the cornea. which covers the
lens of the eye. The pressure Is trans
mitted back to the retina, where 1t
may quickly kill the nerve ending and
cause irremediable blindness.
The new technique relieves the
pressure by simplified operation.

TINE day before the farmers
voted to continue the corn
hog program for another year
Il President Roosevelt was able
to announce that it would be perma-
nent. He announced that the A. A. A.
program would be simplifled and per-
fected for an indefinite period.
No direct mention was made Of the
corn-hog program, Of course. The
President himself said his announce
ment had no connection whatever
with the vote to be held "a hours
later. His assurance to the farmers
had been in the process Of formation
for long time and it just happened
to be given out by him the night before
the farmers went to the polls. You
know how those things are. State
ments are always coming out at the
right time, although. Of course, they
are never planned that way. 1t was
just fate, that's all Ia handmade
happy fate.
Tribute to Foresight.
The A. A. A. administrator, Mr..
Davis, whose lack of political acumen
is advertised far and wide. has ver-
ified this Interpretation. His state
ment has all but closed the matter
as far as the super suspicious OBJ
servers here were concernedo. They
would be willing to read politics into
reports from the Weather Bureau or
the Supreme Court itself. but never
into one prepared by Mr.. Davis.
The result. therefore, can only be
another high tribute to the daring
foresight of the A. A. A. boys. They
may have had little inkling as tc
how the vote would come out, mas
much as they campaigned for it, con-
Quoted it and counted it. But even
so, you will have to hand them some

'38 BUDGET BALANCE
IS SEEN BY TUGWELL
Agriculture Official Informs
Democrats Debt Increase Should
Be Three Billions.
BY the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
LOS ANGELES, October 29.-The
Roosevelt administration can satisfy
every humanitarian demand and still
balance the budget in 1888, DR.. Rex
ford G. Tugwell, Undersecretary Of
Agriculture, said last night.
Tugwell told a Democratic meeting
plain facts do not support conten-
tions the administration IS extrava-
CANT and is bequeathing great bur-
den of debt to our children"
Referring to his own calculations,
he said:
UNLESS something unforeseen hap
pens, such as war or catastrophe,
the national debt by the end of the
fiscal year 1888 ought to show a real
net increase of only some three bill
hons.
by 1898 the ordinary expendi-
lures of Government will add up
according to my figures, to Sl9,200.'
100000, and the expenditures for
relief and recovery may add up te
SIS, 1000, 100000 at the outside. Ordi-
nary receipts of the Government will
total $22, 900, 100000.
"Of the IS billion spent on re-
covery and relief 3712 per cent will
consist of recoverables. I therefore
subtract from an apparent gross
deficit Of $ll,60O, 100000 recoverables
amounting to $500 100000. also
subtract gold devaluation profits OF
billions From an apparent deficit
of more than 111a billions q realistic
calculation comes down to a real
deficit of billions"
Tugwell asserted the Nation Is wit
Messing the death struggle of in.
dustrial autocracy and the birth oi
democratic discipline" He said there
is no reason to expect the disestab-
lishment of "our plutocracy" will be
pleasant.
