PORKERS SHOW
uneven TREND
Market Steady to rs Cents
Lower; Cattle, VeaIS
Also Weak.

The pork market displayed an
uneven trading range today at the
Indianapolis Union Stockyards.
Prices were steady to largely 25
cents lower with full loss on weights
ranging downward from 275 pounds.
Receipts, however, were slightly
less than normal. They were esti-
mated at only 1000. Outside inter-
est continued light, due to heavy
supplies arriving at surrounding
livestock markets. Trading devel-
oped slowly at the local market and
demand was light. Approximately
142 head of hogs were held over
from Saturday.
The general bulk of 100 to 225
pounds cashed in at $10.55 to $1O.65
Today's top price also was carried
down to $10.65, the lowest level in
several weeks. Extreme heavies
scaling from 275 to $50 pounds, were
salable at $3.50 to $1015. Light
lights, from 100 to 100 pounds, sold
at 1915 to $10.25. Packing sows
held at $8.75 to 1925.
A weak undertone was displayed
in the cattle market. Trading was
slow in slaughter classes due
largely to liberal supply and bid
ding around Is to so cents lower
Best steers sold at $40, while most
heifers brought $3.50 down. Cows
were plentiful with very few early
sales reported. Receipts were 1900
Vealers were generally so cents
lower, with the bulk of good and
choice grades selling at $1,000 to
$11. Receipts numbered 500. The
lamb market was undeveloped early
and no sales we're reported. The sup
ply consisted largely of fed Western
grades at steady prices. Receipts
were 5000.

MILLION FIRMS
Approximately 20 Per Cent
Report Capitals of
$4,000 or More.

Times Special
NEW YORK, Feb. 24.-BusineSs
of the United States is carried on
by nearly 100000 active industrial
and commercial concerns, according
to a survey released today by the
Ethyl Gasoline Corp, a subsidiary
of both the Standard Oil Co. of
New Jersey and the General Motors
Corp.
About 20 per cent of the 100000
enterprises have. according to the
latest available figures, capitals OF
$4,000 or more; approximately 7
per cent have at least $4,000. and
less than 3 per cent have $50O.000
or more.
Individuals qualifying in mana
gerial occupations number about
100000. There are some $4,000
manufacturers whose concerns and
responsibility are to bring abilities
of 100000 workers to the full
flower of their serviceability, it is
pointed out.
Business Returns Shown
Incomes by partnerships and in
dividually owned business are re-
ported OH individual income tax re-
turns, and because of their compli-
Gated nature are not computed. In
comes from individual returns from
business" total IA billion dollars
and from partnership 600 mil
lion dollars.
There were 504,080 corporations
and 214,881 partnerships who re-
ported on incomes of 1888 for Fed
eral income tax purposes. Of the
total corporations making returns,
109,7 1856 reported net incomes total
ing just under billion dollars;
BIT, 056 showed deficits of about SIS
billion dollars, the remaining 1928
were inactive, with returns showing
no income data. The total tax paid
was 1923, 068, 134, an average of 1916
per cent of net income.
Dividend Total Drops
"Of the 446,S42 returns of active
corporations, 388,564 submitted ball
ance sheets showing much Slgnlf1-

gregate cash dividends paid were
billion dollars and stock dividends
just over 100 million dollars, both

Total assets were about 268 billion

A year-end squirt in building per-
mits gave 1885 a new high since
1881. Building during the year
gained IS per cent over 1884. Resi-
dental building led the list with a
90 per cent increase, permits for
public building were up rs per cent
educational up At per cent and
commercial building up only 9 per

Impressive and encouraging as
these percentage gains are, building

for recovery and relief.
AS a matter of fact the govern
ment has been spending less for
these purposes. Emergency ex-
penses this year are $2,059, 1000, 900
as against S2,191 100000 in the
same period last year. That Is,
emergency expenses are this year
1872 100000 less than they were
last year.
TINE increase in expenditures
i has been due to the increase
in the ordinary expenses of the
lgovernment-those expenses which
are unconnected with the emery
ency and which the government
thinks ought to be paid out of
taxes. But they are falling very far
short of being paid out of taxes.
AS a matter of fact, the story on
this point is rather surprising.
Last year at this time the record
of tax receipts and expenditures
lwas:
sRecelptS ............. ~, lfo ,OUu,uoo
Expenditures ........ 2088, 100000
Surplus ...........$ 90,000,000
But this year it runs as follows:
Receipts S2,233, OOO,OOO
Expenditures ...... 2,460,000, 900
Deficit .............$ 2ZLU0O,00o
OF course one explanation of this
IS the falling off in the processing
taxes which were first held up and
then declared unlawful. But even
with this there would have been no
deficit in the ordinary budget If
.ordinary expenditures had not in
creased.
Where was this increase? We
find $40,000,000 of it in the War
Department, $43 100000 in the Navy
and $46,000,000 in the departments
generally. Along with an increase
Iof 100000 in veterans pay
|ments, we have $191 100000 which
is almost the deficit.
HERE can be no excuse what
Il ever for this deficiency in the
general or ordinary budget. There
can be no excuse in not raising
sufficient taxes for the ordinary
expenses of the government, what
ever may be said for paying re-
covery and relief costs with Dor
rowed funds.
Therefore, Congress ought not to
adjourn without providing by taxes
for the deficiency in the cost of
running the government. One way
would be to trim some of the ordi-
nary expenses, though that may
very we'll cripple useful govern
ment services and hence must be
approached gingerly.
But the fact remains that this
year to date we have spent on or
binary government costs nearly
$400,000,000 more than last year
without including recovery or re-
lief items.
