ALL ALTERATIONS FREE 135 Main Stree': Barnes Block serving | 35,804,381 YEAR’S DEFICIT FOR NATION. { Treasury Has Balance of $80.- 026,716—No Issue of Bonds Washington, July 2.—The second tration, which clesed Wednesday, showed a deficit of $35,864,381, com- pared with a surplus for the year end- ing June 30, 1914, of $34,418,677. Official explanations will not issued until the figures for the 2re analyzed by Secretary ' McAdoo, but on the face of the records it is | apparent that receipts were much snialler, an enormous reduction in cus- | toms reveénues resulting frem the war, while disbursements wére much greater, Balance of $82,025,716. Notwithstanding the deficit on the year's business, the treasury now has an actual net balance of $82,025,718. With such a balance on hand and every prospect that it will be increased poesibly by $10,000,000 in the next ten days, it is evident that there will be no issue of Panama Canal or other government bonds-to replenish the ccffers for many months to come, if | at all. Customs receipts for the last fiscal Yyear amounted to $209,268,107, about $11,000,000 under the estimates made by Secretary McAdoo several months after - war began and $82,000,000 bélow the amount received from this source in 1914, With the end of the War apparently remote, it is well known that many treasury officials are convinced that it will be necessary for 'congress to restore the old duty on | susar at the next séssion. Sugar be- cemes free next vear; whereas in the Gays when it paid duty it brought in about $60,000,000 a year. Income Tax Big Producer. Theincome tax proved the big pro- ducer during the past tweive months. Total receipts up to the close of busi- ness last night were $79,828,675, of which $36,303,525 came in on June 30. This is more than $8,500,000 above that total received from the tax last | year and there remain ten days of grace in which it may iawfully be paid, Officials are confident that during this period there will be rececived in income tax payments at léast $6,000,- 000 which would bring the total $5,- 000,000 above the amougy estimated. It was said last night that the per- sonal income tax proved a surprise this year. Last year it'brought in only about $28,000,000, but up to date this year it has produced mere than $41,000,000 and that probably will be augmentéd by several millions. The corporation income tax apparently will be about the same as that re- ceived last year. Better Revenue Producer. Contrary to current reports, it now develops that the emergency tax law also has proved an even better reve- nue produced than was expécted. De- ¢ spite this, however, intérnal revenue ‘receipts for the year, $335,828,377, were only about $27,000,000 in excess of last year's. One contributing fact it that whiskey is not paying the reve- nue it used to produce by somewhere between $16,000,000 and $20,000,000 u year. Another thing pointed out last night by treasury officials was that the ‘post office department, usually self-sustain- ing, has run behind this year and has received advances from the treasury amotinting to more than $6,600,000. 1¢ this were to be paid back, the de- ficit would be that much décreased. On the other hand the treasury has paid out on account of the Panmama Canal during the year more than $29,- €00,000, which is reimbursable, though not likely to he reimbursed, unless through a bond issue for many years to come. $57,500,000 Net Expenses. JIncluding the Phnama Canal ex- penditures, but deducting the amount advanced the post office, the account shows a net excess of all disburse- meénts for the vear over all receipts | of about $57,500,000. | Total expenditures for the year were $731,627,5672, compared with | 8700,5659,248 last year, be vear NATIONAL MATTERS STUDIED BY WILSON | President Reads Reports From State Deépartment on Armenian, Mexi- can and British Situations.
