wants to dispute the figures OF
the other. But neither is back
ing down from its own, either.
i The following, Treasury spokes-
man said, is the basis for Mr..
Snyder's SIS billion estimate:
The Budget Bureau. in its last
detailed estimate, suggested last
June that the Government will
spend 1884 billion by the end of
next June. It estimated that rev.
enues-without the new tax Law
would total about $58.5 billion.
BY adding the $585 to $2.5 billion,
the latter being the estimated ad-
ditional revenue from the new tax
law through next June, a new
revenue estimate OF $6l billion
emerges. This is STA billion be-
low the estimated expenditures.
To explain the $4 billion esti-
mate. however. Commerce De-
partnfent spokesman came up with
different set of figures.
Instead of revenues totaling SCI
billion, he said. Commerce econo-
mists cite a figure of $65 billion.
This figure, he said. came from
the Senate Finance Committee re-
port on the new tax law and
|represents more current esti-
mates than those drawn up last
June. The adjustments. he added,
come mainly in higher personal
incomes and higher corporate
profits.
Against the $65 billion income,
he said, the economists cite ex-
penditures of 500 billion. Result:
A 81 billion deficit.
New Expenditure Figure.
The Budget Bureau. which
wants no part of the disagreement
at this point, hasn't come up with
a revenue estimate since last June.
a spokesman said. AS for expen-
ditures, the bureau two weeks ago
ventured they would be in the
neighborhood of $40 billion.
Specifically, the bureau said In
a statement, 1T now appears that
total budget expenditures for the
fiscal year 1852 will be in the
neighborhood of $40 billion and
that substantial budget deficit
will be incurred, even with the
increase in receipts arising from
the Revenue Act of 1851"
The bureau, a spokesman said,
has carefully not given" a recent
revenue estimate until it can take
advantage of all trends" in the
new budget analysis in January
The bureau spokesman cited
just one other possible complica-
ton: Unless the Treasury and
