Some additional estimates have been sent in since then, however, and substantial additions to the proposed appropria- tions have been made by the house committees in drafting the supply bills. Secretary McAdoo’s estimate of revenues, exclusive of the post office department, was $728,000,000. This included $220,000,000 from cus- toms, $805,000,000 from ordinary in- ternal revenue, $54,000,000 from the emergency war tax and $80,000,000 from the income and corporation tax. 8o far as the income tax law goes, there is no accurate data available yvet in the treasury department on which officials can base an estimate of what may 'be expected this fiscal year. Last year it produced about $60,000,000 from corporaitons and in- | dividuals. Mr. McAdoo expects to get $80,000,000 from the tax this year. Affect of War, Consideration is being given to the effect the European war and financial conditions in the United States may have on returns from the income tax. How marked this may be officials do not pretend to know. The net bal- ance last night in the treasury was about $66,000,000. It is slowly drop- ping, and some officials are inclined to believe that if the ship purchase bill becomes a law, the government will i{ssue Panama canal three per cent, bonds to provide the $10,000,000 to huy stock in the shipping corpora- tion it creates. Mr. McAdoo said last night that he had not taken up this question. The secretary has author- ity to issue canal bonds to the amount of $240,569,000 if necessary. Beginning last night and continuing through the remainder of the week the annual bagaar of Court Friendly, F. of A, will be held in Judd's hall.
