Record breaking peace-time ex-

Ing tomorrow sent the federal
government "in the red" to the ex-
tent Of Approximately $3.50, 0O0,-
00O--the fifth successive year II

meet expenditures.
Heavy relief and recovery costs,
las well as q sharp increase In reg
ular government costs, sent ex-
penditures In the l2-month period
to approximately $1,000, 0cO, 600.
Although income was bolstered ~

amounted to only $3.50, 900, 600
and was $3.50, 100000 short "

In the previous fiscal year. COW
ering the first quarter OF the

amounted to $7,243,725,e26 ana IN
come to $3.277,733,940, leaving
the government I'm tho red" IN
that period to the extent Of s3,-

Estimates on Per Capita Basis
on a per capita basis the fed
eral government In the ~ months
ending tomorrow spent the equiv
nlcnt of $50 for each man, woman
and child In the country. Against
these expenditures II was able 10
collect In income only $50 per
capita. The balance was borrowed.
The further heavy borrowings
carried the national debt to an
other all.time record peak Of
nearly s29,oo0,ooo,O 900, or more
than $4,000, 100000 above the top
reached just after the World
War. 1t was $4,000, 100000 above
tho low point OF $4,000. 000, 200
reached In the early days OF the
Hoover administration.
In the IL years up 10 June 80,
1880. the federal governments I'M
come In each year exceeded It's
expenditures. This permitted the
pairing down of the public debt
Immediately after the war.
Deficits Started In 1880
Beginning with the fiscal year
starting July /, 1880, the federal
government has had deficits for
Ave successive fiscal years. The
accumulated deficit In this period
has reached approximately $i4.-
coo, 900, 900.
The government In the current
fiscal year spent less for credit
and financial relief and more for
| direct relief. Total relief and re.
covcry costs were slightly under
the $4,000. 100000 layout for these
purposes In the preceding fiscal
year. The balance went for reg
utar government costs which ex-
panied sharply because OF In
creasing interest costs and q more
liberal attitude on the part of the
government.
Operating Costs Within Revenue
Had II not been for the nearly
81. 900. 100000 Of relief and recov-
cry costs during the current hscal
year, the governments income
would have balanced Its normal
expenditures. About $3.50. 00o.s
900 was spent for regular operat-
ing costs, or about the same sum
as was collected as income.
Among the nearly $4,000, 100, 900
recovery and relief expenditures,
$3.50. 100000 went for direct res
lief; nearly a billion for public
works; $500, ZOO for emergency
