GOVERNNENT TRLLS OF TAX REFUNDS Gives Back Much But Collects Nuch Nore Washingten, Jan. ¢ (P—8ince 1917 the goverament has refunded §975,012,35¢ of taxes illegaily or er- roneously collected. In the samne time $4,061,769,203 has been collected as additional or back taxes, as well as those assessed in the ordinary course of events, Thess computations were includ- od today in the report submitted to the house by its appropriations com- mittes with the first deficiency bil, which sald that the total refunded was approximately 2.5 per cent of t! 8,915,757,623 of the internal revenue receipts for the period. The bill itsel? sought to provide $54,138,310 to meet emergency ex- penses for the current fiscal year, including $75,000,000 for tax re- funds. ‘The tetal in $66,705 less than that tecommended by the budget. A total of 35,000,000 would be used for carrying on the govern- ment's contract air mail service; $1,- 050,000 would go toward construc- tion of new barracks at the Pacific branch of the national heme for dissbled volunteer soldicrs at Santa Monics, Calif.; $46,000 for the in. suguration of President-elect Hoov- er, and $30,000 for aiding Indian influensa victims of the southwest. In connection with the tax refund ftem, the committee which framed the measure declared that while $130,000,000 was made available for this purpose this fiscal year, ve- funds for the first five months had been at the rate of approximately $15,000,000 a month and with the approval last month of a $26,000,000 claim by the United States Bteel Corporation, = total of $208,000,000 would be required to meet all re- funds this year. It was pointed out that the §26,- 600,000 refund could be taken care of by & $48,000,000 unexpended bal- ance in current funds, but since this ‘would reduce the funds available for refunds to $22,000,000 and leave enough to provide for only one and one half months’ expenditure, the treasury would exhaust such funds early in February. Under the law the refund to the Bteel Corp., which was approved De- cember b last must be held for 30 days after a statement of the case had been transmitted to the joint congressional committee on interna- ti-qal revenue taxation. Payment therefore, may be made tomorrow. Of the $205,000,000 to be required for refunds this year, the committee reported that $43,000,000 or more than 20 per cent was on account of interest. In this connection, the report said, it should be borne In mind that the government also collects intereat from taxpayers on back taxes and th-t for the first quarter of this Now that you've decided to “turn over a new leaf” and keep track of ex- penses, why not also de- cide to turn to the City National Bank?

The TIONAL O | tha flage] year such interest was apprexi- mately $13,000,000 as against $3.- 000,000 paid out. As for the air mail item of $5.- 0 the committes pointed out all contract operators now wers making profits, many of them exces- sive, which centributed “in seme imeasure to the wide diftirence be- tween air mail expenditures and revenues.” The committee declared that with the large volume of mail now car- ried by alr under the reduced post- age rate, the government was eper- ating at'a 50 per cent loas and that uniess the contractors were paid less and postage incressed, the serv. ice would never pay for itaself. “This is & matter which congress should consider at mo very distant time,” the report sald, “and either determine or indicate whether the present policy invelving such a large loas is desired to be continued or changed by the post office de- partment.” : SENATORS DEBATE ON KELLOGG PACT (Continued from First Page) lish themselves in South Aemrica.” The dactrine Itself, Borah mid, would not be “embarrassed or cur- tailed” by the new treaty. “The asserted right of this gov- ernment to watch over South and Central America rests entirely upon the principle of self defense,” he said. “The right of every natfon to self defense is conceded under this treaty.” The Idahoan was soon surround- ed by questioners as another crowd- ed chamber listened to the renewal of debate. I"cLean in Opposition Opposition developed from the re- publican side when Senator McLean, republican, Connecticut, & member of the foreign relations committee, announced that he believed Secre- tary Kellogg. In "informing the other powers of America's rights un- der the treaty to protect its terri- tories, had neglected the Monroe doctrine. Senator Borah replied that the term territories was not used in a limiting sense. McLean insisted that the secretary should have included South and Central America under | the protective provision of his cor- respondence and because of his fail- ure to do so he, McLcan, would sup- port & resolution to accomppny the treaty reasserting Americas’ guard- ianship over this hemisphere. Benators Caraway, democrat, ef Arkansas and Johnson, republican, of California, joined in the Monroe doctrine questjoning. Henator Johnson called attention to the letter of Great Britain reserv- ing the right to protect her terri. and asked: sn’ that a reservation?” “I don't think the note gives Great Britain any right under the treaty which it would not have had if that note had not been written,” Borah answered. “It is merely & construction of Great Britain's idea of self-defense.” “But some statesmen-likemind in Great Britain deemed it wise to set forth his country's views of this country's views of this treaty,” sald Johnson. Tte Calitornian is one of those looking favorably on the resolution of Senator Moses, republican of New Hampshire, stating America's inter- pretation of her rights under the treaty. Referring again to the British note, Senator Borah insisted that America’s position in connection with the treaty had been just as ac- curately set forth by Secretary Kel- logg in his correspondence with the other powers and in his addresses. “And the positions of beth na- tions,” he added, “are percisely the same as if neither had opened its head. ow for Secretary Kellogg 1 want to say that he did not mention the Monroe doctrine in the treaty negotiations because he considered that doctrine & part of uor country’s self defenese and he has always maintained that the right of self de- fense is not involved in the treaty.” “Ia that he only reason why the Monroe doctrine was not mentioned by the secretary?” asked Senator Reed, democrat of Missourl. “No, not the only reason,” replied Borah, “but I think it was the con- trolling reason.” New Haven Fire Captain Dies at Daughter’s Home New Haven, Jan. ¢ (®—George H. :larrlck. retired fire captain, dlre.; to- lay at the home of his daughter, Mrs. Louls F.

PRICES DIP, RALLY ON CURB'NARKET Utilities Develop Considerable Strength New York, Jan. 4 P—Prices dip- ped sharply on the curb market dur- ing the first hour of trading today, but the selling, attributed té the huge increase in brokers' loans-an- nounced last evening, was soon ab- sorbed and a vigorous rally set in which cancelled most of the losses before midday. Deere fell away 25 points at the open!ng, but soon made up its loss. Ford of Canada was again strong, advancing 21 points to a record price at 750.

BOND MARKET MEETS SETBACK Wave of Liquidation in Morning Hours; Improves a Little New York, Jan. ¢ (A—The bond market was deluged by a wave of liquidation resulting from announce- | ment of vast increases in brokers' | loans in early trading today and prices took a downward trend. Some improvement was shown later, when | the stock market rallied and time money displayed an easier under- tone, but it was not extensive. Anaconda Copper 78 and Barns- dall 68 were forced down about 3! points each. International Telephone | convertible 414s and Public Service of New Jersey 46s were sold at slightly lower prices, and other util- | s showed sympathetic declines.

PRENOSIL Associated Press Financial Editor New Yerk, Jan. 4 (P — Bullish forces in the sfock market received a temporary set-back toduy when a deluge of selling, inspired by the record-breaking total of brokers’ loans, forced prices down 2 to % voints. Fresh buying support was quickly forthcoming and an irregular recovery ensued in which early losses were cut down and a number of pub- | lic utility, copper, chemical and food shares were marked up 1 to § points above yesterday's final quotations. | The rally was Influenced by a fur- | ther easing in the credit situation. | Call money renewed at 8 per cent, Gropped to 7 and thence to 6. Ied- eral reserve officials intimate that the ease in money reflects a tem- porary surplus accumulation of funds here incidental to the heavy year-end payments. kxcept for an increase of a barrel in Pennsylvania Crude oil prices and reports of a brisk demand for copper metal, there was little in the day’s trade news to influence the price movement. Activity of many pecialties reflects the many merger discussions now under way, and the prospect of higher dividends when {he 1928 earnings are officially com- piled. | New York, Jan. 4 ®—The record- | breaking expansion in stock ex- | change member and federal reserv Lrokers' loans brought a flood of | selling orders into the stock market at the opening today, causing sharp | recessions throughout the list. | Radio quickly broke 7 polnts, General Electric 5, Nash Motors 4 and American Smelting, Johns Man- ville, General Motors and Prairic Oil & Gas 3 points or more. With the average yield on high grade securities less than 5 per cent and the cost of carrying them on margin averaging T per cent or more, a downward readjustment of | quoted values was regarded as in- cvitable by many brokers. The in- crease in acceptance rates announc ed during the last few days also is expected o reduce the volume of credit available on securities collat- | eral. Some observers attributed the | large increase in loans to the fact that many investors bought securi- | ties on margin last week in expec- | tation of paying for them with | moneys received in the form of | January dividend and interest dis- bursements. | Early selling was directed chiefly | against the merchandising, oil, mo- | tor and copper shares and high priced specialties which have heen under pool sponsorship.
