e. Dumbarton Oaks, incompar-
able so far as show places go in
Washington, was thrown open
to the delegates to the Third
World Power Conference and
Second Congress on Large
Dams yesterday afternoon.
Perfect weather for the visi-
tors to see and admire the beau
tifully handicapped gardens and
wander at will from one terrace
to another, sit beside bubbling
fountain or gaze over Rock
Creek Park and see through the
still green trees the William
Howard Taft Bridge in the dis
lance. Boxwood, carefully
tended, lends a great deal of
charm to the more formal gar
dens on the estate, and when
surrounded with rose gardens,
abloom in every shade, one
could not help but stand and
stare in admiration.
The swimming pool, clear
and cool looking with its tur-
quoise shaded water, was most
inviting. Beside it on a lower
level are the tennis courts, and
one may look over these recre-
ational spots from the various
paths on the upper terrace,
Yesterday the Navy Band
played in one section of the
garden, rendering typically
American airs for our visitors
to hear.
The Chief of Protocol of the
Department of State, Mr.. Rich
ard Southgate, introduced the
guests to the Secretary of State
and Mrs. Cordell Hull and Mr.,
and Mrs. Morris L. Cooke. Mrs.
Hull was smartly attired in
black sheer crepe with bindings
of white at the front of her hip.
length jacket. Her brimmed
hat had a garland of white
leaves. Mrs. Cooke was in a
black and white printed silk
and her hat was of shiny black
straw. The places Of the Sec
rotary and Mrs. Hull were later
taken by the Secretary of Com

NOW EXCEEDS
4BILLI0NS

Government spending for the
current fiscal year yesterday
passed the four billion dollar
mark, the Treasury announced.
1t was nearly double the $2,ol3,-
679 PAT in revenues collected since
last July l, and more than the
total amount Of taxes the Gov
eminent expects to collect before
June 80.
President Roosevelt plans to
spend $7,645 ,3O1 1888 this year.
With $4,o11,S35,262 already paid
out, the Government has $685.
466,076 remaining to be paid out
in the last five and a half months
of 1885 fiscal year.
Mr.. Roosevelt had expected rev.
enues Of 4,410 million dollars this
fiscal year. They were cut down
about $50 million by the Supreme
Courts decision outlawing the
AAA processing taxes, reducing
the estimates to 1850 million.
Thus, the anticipated deficit
1924 million dollars for the cur
rent year will be increased to
approximately four billion dollars,
when the proposed appropriation
of $50 million is made to pay
farmers benefits under existing
AAA contracts.
