He is convinced that, unless it is halted, the It depends, he is careful to explain, upon the avoid- ance of raising more revenues than are now contem- plated “to meet the necessary annual operations and to retire the public debt.” A decision by the Supreme Court invalidating the Agricultural Adjustment Act would render impossible that accomplishment. On that point the President stated succinctly It will be understood that estimates of re- ceipts contemplate the continued collection of processing taxes. If the attack which has been made upon this act is sustained, we will have to face the problem of financing existing contracts for benefit payments out of some form of new taxes. For the obvious reason that “so great a part of the Federal program as influenced by economic condi- tions,” the President reviewed the marked improve- ment in business and agriculture which justified the saving of nearly a billion and a quarter during the first half of 1935. Total expenditures for the fiscal| year ended June 30 last amounted to $7.3753825,166, against an estimated expenditure shown in the budget of last January 7 of $8,581,069,026. The emergency ex- penditures for recovery and relief had been estimated at $5,259,802,852, instead of which they actually to- taled $4,262,257,208.

Edward Krause, now reported to be a passenger on the Northwestern, southbound to Seattle, spent three days in Petersburg before embarking on the ship, a search of the hotel register revealed. How he arrived in town, and whether he was accom- panied, remains a mystery. Witnesses are positive he has not been seen with any companion during his stay here, and speculation continues rife concerning the fate of William Chris- tie, worker in the “700" Mill, Doug- las, whom he is reputed to have kidnaped. Krause is traveling under an assumed name. Nothing further can be learned until the boat docks in Seattle, at which time police of that city have been instructed to take Krause immediately into custody. ‘The Juneau Women's Club held a social evening to which husbands of members were invited.
