WASHINGTON, June 8. Up -
Senatorial critics Of NRA began a
minute study Saturday Of the
Roosevelt administrations stop-gap
plan which sped through the house
late Friday by a vote Of 264 TO III.
These senators feared that the
resolution extending a midget NRA
agency for 9h months entailed
more authority TO relax the anti
trust laws than they understood az
first.
Richberg Resigns
On the other hand, critics we're
somewhat Softened in their opposi-
ton TO the recovery administration
by the announcement that Chair
man Donald Richberg had resign
ed effective June IS. and that the
president had accepted the resig-
nation.
However. they scrutinized closely
the provisions for exemptions from
the antitrust laws. Though Pres
ident Roosevelt had said Friday
that any voluntary codes OF fair
practices which business may erect
must conform TO the antitrust
laws. the house a few hours later
insisted on continuing his powers
to grant exemptions from these
laws in connection with voluntary
codes.
While repeating the old provi-
Sions empowering Mr.. Roosevelt TO
prescribe and enforce codes-the
compulsory features ruled out by
the supreme court-the houses reso-
luton passed Friday left intact the
section Of the original recovery act,
which said:
Section 5. While this title is in
effect COR in the ase Of a license
while section "A Is in effect) and
for 60 days thereafter. any code,
agreement, or license approved. pre-
scribed or issued and in effect un-
der this title and any action COM
plying with the provisions thereof
taken during such period, shall be
exempt from the provisions of the
antitrust laws OF the United
States"
Goes TO Senate
Chairman Harrison, Of the SEN
ate finance committee, planned 70
call the resolution up in the cham
Der the first thing next week, but
he faced a probable demand TO have
Il sent to committee for inveStiga-
ton.
Senator King D-Utahl an
nounced he would make such a
move. He said he might offer as
an alternative his bill for volun-
tary codes under the Federal Trade
commission.

Germ lest the skeletonized NRA plan

Cattle Market Active and

UNCHANGED.

The pork market, disregarding a
sharp increase in receipts, recovered
yesterdays 10-cent loss in prices at
the Indianapolis Union Stockyards
today in fairly active session.
The lightweight division, which
was less active, remained I'M
changed.
The majority of traders, more
confident over the fresh meat situ-
alton throughout the country,
placed orders freely in today's ses-
sion. Although yesterdays eX-
tremely light supply for week day
session had considerable influence
on the prevailing strong demand in
the general classes.
Receipts today were estimated at
5000, compared with only $500 in
the preceding session. The general
bulk of 100 to 235 pounds cashed in
at $3.50 to 1910. The Top price
held at S9.75. Heavyweights from
275 to $50 pounds brought 1910 to
S940 Light classes, scaling 100 TO
100 pounds, sold at $685. to 1885.

held at SO to S875. Holdovers num-
bered 1874
Trading was generally active and
strong to slightly higher in the cat
tie market, resulting mostly from
the light supply available. Buyers,
however, in some instances resisted
higher asking prices, but competed
freely for the early available sup
plies.
The bulk of steers sold mostly
from SO to S10.25, while choice
medium weights were salable at SD
or slightly higher. Bulk of heifers
brought $3.50 to $3.50. Beef COWS
ranged from S475 to $3.50. Re-
ceipts numbered 700. The veal
market was generally unchanged,
with good and choice grades selling
from SO to $3.50. Receipts were 600

WASHINGTON, June 27.-Few-

summer than for many years, &C
cording to the Bureau of Agricul-
tural Economics in its current re-
port on world hog and pork pros
poets
Stocks of pork on June l, the bu-
reau reports, were the smallest for
that date in 20 years, and stocks
of lard the smallest in II years. In
spected slaughter in May was the
smallest for that month in more
than 35 years.
United States exports Of hog
produces have been sharply reduced
since the middle of 1884. In view
of the marked decrease in domestic
hog slaughter, exports Of pork and
lard are likely to continue at low
level during the remainder of 1885,

Mill Consumption Hit

Cotton consumption by American
mills has been at a lower rate this
season so far. as Commissioner
Linder's tax figures show. and indi-
cations today were that they would
dip still lower.
Silk. rayOn. linen and other cloths
selling at prices that do not carry
processing tax have been cutting in
seriously on cotton cloth sales and
mills have been curtailing produc-
ton each month to equalize prOduc-
ton with the lower demand. II was
reported today that practically the
whole cotton textile industry would
shut down for the week of July 4.
The entry of jute in the lists
against cotton indicates. as Commits
sioner Under pointed out. the ex-
IRENE weakness of the SOuths vege-
table fiber. Jute is a very coarse
fiber and heretofore was used eX-
clusively for bagging and other
coarse. heavy materials. Its manu-
facture into the fine. lace-like cloth
shown in Mr.. Linder's sample must
entail a heavy cost.

BILLION SLASH
SEEN POSSIBLE
IN U. S. DEFICIT
Figure for Year Starting
Monday May Be Aided by
New Tax Revenues.

lCODYTlgNL, 1880. " OUlttu EitSof
WASHINGTON. June 27.-The
Administration hopes to trim more
than 1,000000,000 from the deficit
which it had expected the Treasury
would face in the new fiscal year
beginning Monday
The budget presented to Congress
by President Roosevelt in January
allowed for total expenditures OF
$8,520000,000 and contemplated in
come of 1891 100000 for the new
fiscal year. This would have left
the government in the red" by $4,-
529000000, the largest one-year
peace-time deficit on record.
Fiscal officials today revised these
estimates in the light of proposed
new taxes and other recent develop
ments. in hopes the deficit for the
year beginning July l can be held
to SO. 300 100000 or less.
For the fiscal year closing Sat-
urday, estimates indicate eXpenGi-
lures of $1,000 100000 income Of
SO $50. 100000 and deficit of So
55O,OO0,00O. Under a new method of
Budget Director Daniel W. Bell to
draw up a new governmental ball
ance sheet as soon as Congress adj
journs.
Includes New Items
This statement will bring up 10
date the present budget prepared
last January. The new budget"
will take into consideration latest
congressional appropriations, few
taxes and various economic devel-
opments since January having a
bearing on the governments ex-
penSes and income.
Signs have been accommodating
since January that the govern
ment's expenditures in the coming
fiscal year would fall far under esti-
mates and that income would ex-
coed estimates. This was indicat-
ed by a relatively slow spending
program during the spring months
when relief needs we're greatest and
prospects of passage of the new tax
bill calculated to bring unantici-
pated millions of dollars into the
treausy.
The government has spent on an
average less than 100000 a
month. even in recent periods of
greatest relief needs. IT, is possible
expenditures can be held down to
around $1,000, $1,000 in the next ifs
cal year, compared with a budget
estimate of $8,520,000 900.
Revenue Gain Seen
With the present rising tax coll
lections, it is believed the govern
ment in the new fiscal year can in
crease its revenues to we'll over 81
100000 OC0 from the budget estimate
of 1891 900 ,000
Definite figures for the new fiscal
year can not be drawn until Con-
gress adjourns and it is definitely
known what taxes are to be in eff
feet and what further appropria-
tionS might be made. Acting Bud
get Director Bell, however, has be-
gun his summation of the budget"
and will have it in the hands of the
President within a week after Con-
gress adjournS.
President Roosevelt said in his
budget message that the policy Of
having a summation of the budget
prepared for publication will ex-
hibit the revenue estimates, so re-
vised by the treasury as to reflect
any change. in the economic stu
alton during the preceding six or
seven months, and indicate
the need for executive or admins
trative measures in controlling the
execution of the budget during the
fiscal year 1886"

OIL SELF-RULE

At Same Time CaIifornia'S
Production SpurtS to

WASHINGTON, June 27.-Self-
regulation for the oil industry I'M
der a new code of fair practice
RI was the ultimate objective of
a group of marketing representa-
tiveS of all branches of the indus
try assembled here this week, over
whom C. E. Arnott, vice president
of Socony-Vacuum Corp, presided.
The group gathered under the
joint auspices of the American Pc
troleum Institute and The Planning
and Coordination Committee,
which was the oil industry's code
authority under the defllnct NRA.
Few industries profited TO greater
extent under the codes, it is as
serted.
Charges were made here last week
by independent oil men attending
the National Oil MarketerS' Assc-
citation meeting that the major
companies we're fixing prices and
squeezing" the smaller units. A
committee was appointed to ask
Homer S. Cummings to order a De-
partment of Justice investigation.
This has been done, 1t was larer
announced.
Seek Voluntary Action
With this move on the board, Mr.
Arnott opened today's session, at
tended by representatives of big
companies, middle-sized companies
and small companies, to determine
what might be done voluntarily by
the trade itself to maintain market
stability in the aftermath of the
destruction of the NRA code.
Mr. Arnott said the group would
study the trade practice rules both
of the defunct oil code and those
drawn up by the Federal Trade
Commission in 1881 to see if new
rules could be formulated and
recommended to the industry for
voluntary adoption.
Just what is to be done with Cali
fornia was not clear. California is
the sole major oil producing state
which has no production control
law, although the major companies
have been able to keep the situation
there within hand until recently.
Outlook Threatens
But since the abrogation of the
NRA the situation has become eX-
tremely threatening. During the
week ended June % California OPP
orators, who have swept aside all
restraint, allowed crude production
to reach the new peak of $4,000
barrels daily, the highest level in
four and one-half years.
BY Thursday of last week the
average was officially reported with
in 10000 barrels of the 10000 daily
level attained in December, 1890
This compares with the preceding
seven-day estimate of ST. 500 bar
rels and an average of 535 5000
barrels daily for the similar 1884
week.
1t was reported today from Los
Angeles that hope for an early set
Element of the California Situa-
ton and restoration of gasoline
prices to their former levels has
been abandoned in a number of
quarters, although most serious
efforts are being made to bring
demand and thereby avoid Sc
rious break in prices.
Producers have been warned by
purchasing companies that there
will be no market for the $4,000
barrels daily of overproduction and
that they can not afford to take the
oil and hold it at existing prices.
