Definite Program for

b the Associated Press.

b the Associated Press.
NEW YORK, Dec. 27.-GuAranty
Trust Co. declared yesterday that the
time has come for broad planning Of
relief for the needy IN times Of de-
preston.
In q review, Of the current year
and the business outlook for 1898. the
Guaranty said: Even though con-
siderable recovery should occur dur
ing the coming year. several problems
will remain that must be solved before
business may regard the longer-term
future with assurance"
The trust company foresaw:
l. Need for adoption of long -range
plan Of relief expenditures at times
Of economic stress. as contrasted with
the .spasmodic, wasteful and poorly
planned disbursements" of the past.
2. Need for some definite plan for
balancing the budget, such as broad
ening the tax base and reducing ex-
penditures.
;. Need for q systematic program
for reducing the huge public debt
(when . balanced budget is achieved
and conditions warrant.
In respect to labor. 1t said there is
"an urgent necessity for some ap-
proach to industrial problems that will
enable the Government. business men
and labor to consider their differences
In spirit Of cooperation"
Regarding the 1898 business out
look, the trust company said:
While most competent observers
anticipate that recession will continue
we'll into the coming year, many BE-
lieve that there Is nothing Of a purely
economic nature apparent at present
to suggest that we are entering 4 de-
preston Of the magnitude and dura-
ton Of the last one"
