Left On Plane For NeO York

enviable and eminently becoming

their marriage is expected to take
place during the next several

The Treasury's recent state
ment, closing its books on the six
months period from July to De-
cember, shows a deficit of about
$1,55O.OOO.OO0, not including debt
reductions. This is about the
same as a year ago. Government
spending is going on at the rate
of about SIS for every $40 re-
ceived in revenue and the differ
ence is secured by adding to the
national debt. This has been the
case since the government last
achieved balanced budget, at the
end of the first year of the Hoo
yer Administration. However, it
should be noted that, due to the
recovery of business and some
new taxes the receipts of the
Treasury have recovered from de-
preston losses and revenue re-
ceived during the past six months
actually exceeded the amount TAX
en- in during the similar period of
the boom year, 192S-29. The or
binary expenses of the govern
ment are balanced and the bor-
rowing is caused by emergency
activities"
