tied; one Is in the possession OF
Dutch destroyer Off the coast OF
Cuba; the other Is still tied up at
Tampico with engine trouble.
The navy department announced
aN ednesday night that the 5000

by the Dutch destroyer Van Kins-
bergen somewhere off the coast
of Cuba. The Rheims crew failed
in an attempt to scuttle the ship
before abandoning il, the navy
said. No information was avail
able concerning the crews fate.
The navy spokesman refused to
divulge the source OF his informa-
tion and authorized only a state
ment reciting the bare facts.
1t was the fifth violation within
two weeks OF the neutrality zone
set up by Western Hemisphere re-

sought to bar all belligerent acti-

II would study the entire field Of

Seventy Five Billion May
be Decided as Result of
Defense Expense


Washington, Dec. IL up = A
boost in the public debt limit to
figure around $75,000.000,O00 APP
peared today to be a likely accom-
paniment to the national defense
spending program.
Treasury officials are noncom-
initial. But they do not deny that
the s60,000,000,000 to $65,000,-
100000 limit suggested by Secre-
tary Henry Morgenthau, Jr., pro-
baby will prove to be too low.
The question was raised last
week in a meeting between Nor
genthau. Chairman Pa. HARRISON
and other members Of the Senate
finance committee. Committee
members asked Morgcnthau
whether a $75,000.000,000 ceiling
would be necessary before the
four year defense program is COM
pleted. Morgenthau did not direct
ly reply. But the issue was raised
again in a press conference this
week with this question:
"Mr. Secretary. this program is
going to last about four years and
the revenues are going to run
maybe $S,000,0O0,000 to $1,000
100000 and the total expenditure
es to about SIS. 000.000.000 a
year Do you anticipate public
debt OF about S75,000,000,000 by
1914 or 1885,.
Morgenthau replied:
81 made the headlines last time
when talked about going to $780,
100000 or sos, 00O,000,0O0
and / was talking about money
that Congress had already appro-
priated.
But beyond that unacceptable
implication that there would have
to be an increase beyond the fig
ures he already had mentioned,
Morgenthau would not discuss the
question. II is due TO be an urgent
issue shortly after Congress meets
Jan. 3.
The public debt now IS s44.2S5,-
900 subject 10 a S4j,O00,000,O00
limit for ordinary expenditures
plus s4,0O0.00O.000 additional
which can be borrowed for ma
tional defense spending exclusive
ly. That makes the overall limit
$49.000,000.000 compared with
an actual public debt Of S16,1S5,-
100000 on June 80. 1930-the low
point after the World War.
The treasury desires to abandon
the earmarking provision which
sets part Of its borrowing author
ity aside for specified purposes.
