KEYSTONE Club
GR0WSFAST

Registering an 80 per cent in.
crease in new members for the
past four weeks as compared with
the gain made in the correspond
ing period of 1896, the Keystone
Automobile Club Of washington
is said by its manager, George E.
Keneipp, to be heading for a new
record Of expansion in 1887.
According to Keneipp, the con.
tinued steadiness Of general eco
nomic conditions in this territory,
combined with an impressive ad-
vance in the sale Of new and used
motor cars, as well as renewed
recognition of the value of motor
club membership, are factors
which are playing important roles
in KeyStone'S current progress.
The local Keystone manager
also pointed out that the club as
whole, the largest in the East, is
pointing toward a membership
goal which will make it the larg-
est independent motoring organi-
cation in the United States, posi-
ton now held by the Automobile
Club Of Southern California.

, Farm Tenancu
Bills Pushed
In Congress
international News Service

Spurred by President Roosevelt's
personal support, two farm tenant
legislation advocates prepared to
push bills in the Senate and House
this week.
Representative Jones Cd, Of
Texas. expects House passage Of
his measure today. Senator Bank
head CD, of Alabama, will at
tempt to gain Senate approval Of
his bill within two or three days.
Although the Jones and Bank
head bills carry identical initial
allocations-10 million dollarS-for
land purchase by tenants, they diff.
feI widely on the method Of spend
ing the money. The Jones bill
provides for easy, long-term loans,
subject to approval by local county
committees. The Senate measure
would have the Government buy
land and sell 1t to the tenants.
Each bill would increase the out
lay to tenants to Is million dol
lars the second year and so mil
licn dollars the third year, the
Senate bill calling for so million
dollars in appropriations annually
thereafter for an indefinite period.
The authorization in the Jones bill
would expire at the end Of three
years.

NEW DEFICITS
SEEN LIKELY

It is now apparent, according to
the Alexander Hamilton Institute,
that the actual returns on Govern
ment finances for the present
fiscal year will show considerable
variation fro mthe budget despite
the fact that the Government has
made four attempts to arrive at
the right figures, with the latest
estimate only two months old. The
report adds:
"An unfavorable variation from
the budget Is the prospect Of o
considerably larger debt than that
provided for in the budget. The
Government has borrowed $780,
O00, 900 Of new money this month,
having decided to increase the
Treasury balance instead Of reduc-
ing it as originally planned.
The implication Of this is that
tie Government is looking forward
to continued deficits in the next
fiscal year and is consequently ac-
cumulating funds to help meet
them. In other words, it Is ap.
parent the Government is not
really expecting that the budget
will be balanced in 1898 despite
expressed intentions of bending its
efforts in that direction. The ma
ton is thus facing the eighth con.
secutive year Of an unbalanced
budget" - Ell,
In addition to the 500 million
dollars which the Government has
borrowed this month, the Treas
ury. under the bonus act Of 1886,
must place 500 million dollars OF
special bonds to the account of the
Government life insurance fund.
The prospect is, the study added,
that the total debt on June 80,
the end Of the current fiscal year,
will be in excess of &c. zoo million
dollars, compared with the 50, 1886
million dollars indicated in the
BUDGET

RAIL SELLING
SENDS STOCKS
DOWNWARD
BY LESLIE GOULD

NEW YORK, June % GN.S0.
Liquidation in railroad stocks led
the market downward today after
strength in the opening hour.
Most carriers slid to new lows,
Atchison dropping two points and
Pennsylvania nearly as much. Case
Threshing was an offside feature,
dropping five points.
Chrysler sagged over two points
to a new low in the motors and
the rest of the list was heavy.
Early advances in the SteelS,
buoyed by the back-to-work move
ment, were supplanted by losses
which ran to more than point in
U. S. Steel. Elsewhere, the same
heavineSS prevailed.
Aviations, amuSements, rubberS,
copperS and oils lost ground.

There is considerable reason
for believing that the weakness
which has characterized various
commodity markets during the
spring means that the upward
price movement, which began in
March, 1888, has been complet-
ed, according to the Alexander
Hamilton Institute. If this
proves to be the case, the testi-
mony afforded by extensive
price recession in the not dis
tant future, the report says add
ing:
"The movement Of prices
since the end Of the World
War up to the present time
provides no evidence Of . de.
parture from the pOst-Civl
War price pattern which was
a duplication Of that after the
NapoIeOnic Wars. In other
words, the IOng.term price
trend at the present time Is
downward. Only II years have
elapsed since the price peak
in 1920. After the NapoleOnic
Wars, the price trend was
downward for about 30 years

Rise I'm Commodities
AuOVer Now?

while, after the Civil War,
prices declined for 80 years.
USUAL PATTERN
"The price advance after
February, 1888, cannot be cited
as an indication that the post
World War price recession has
been cut short before the
eIapse of the usual time re.
quired by such movements. On
the contrary, the recent price
advance Is an argument that
the usual price pattern is be-
ing followed. In each Of the
previous postwar price declines,
the movement was interrupted
by q temporary price rally
which eventually gave way to
q resumption Of the long term
downward trend Of prices"
The price index in April, when
It reached the highest point fol-
the current movement, was $50
This was considerably above the
peak Of 76.0 reached in the post
Civil War rally, and it was only
slightly below the peak Of 1874
reached in the rally after the
Napoleonic Wars.
