Four Billions In

Washington, D. C. Treasury ex-1
pert estimate that government fin
astral nerd for mnny yean to
eome are almrmt certain to run a
boveN $4,000,000,000 annually and'
that moat of the money will be rain-!
d by taxation.
Because of tihls students of gov
ernment finances believe the taxea
lmpoaed lam y-:ir and paid In .Inn-'1
probably will not Oe lightened ma-.
terially by the advent of peace.
Secretary McAdoo today warned
that tttM neccHHtirlly would be i
hiph for mnny yenra to pay off war
debts, and that additional govern
ment lonna would he requested.
Hon e lily, treasury officials and con
gresaional lenders In charge of rev--nae
legislation figure this way:
Ordinary government expenses,
which ran around a billion dollars a 1
year before the war, will now amount
to at least $2,000,000,000 Annually
for mnnv Turn anil for torn or lhr
years after the war may be double
that figure.
If the $16,8F0,000,000 of Liberty
bonds already issued are Increased
la volume nlrocdy Issued are to
$25,000,000,000, the Interest on this
um would amount to about $1,000,
000,000 a year. In addition, It proba
bly will be the government's policy
to establish a sinking fund to pay off
the bonds of maturity, and this would
require about $1,260,000,000 a year.
These three items would make an ag
gregate near $.4,250,000,000.
To offset this there would be near
ly k half billion dollar coming In an
nually from the allies as Interest on
their loans, which now amount to
seven billons and are likely to run
much higher; nnd revenue from
customs and miscellaneous sourceB.
which tnst year amounted to about
$450,000,000.
With allowances for wide varia
tions in the calculations, there
would still remain about $9,500 0C0
OOOto be raised from Internal reven
ue taxes. Last year $$,641,000,000
came from Internal revenue, Includ
ing $$.775,000,000 from Income and
excess profits taxes This year these
figures probably will be more than
doubled.
Factors which made this system of
estimates highly tentative, officials
point out, that the war Is not yet
definitely over, so far as expense Is
concerned, and that war debts, both
of the Amorlc n povernment to the
public and of the allied governments
to the United States cannot be figur
ed until then.
The methods of applying taxes
nfter the war ulso are receiving at
tention. If the schedule of income
taxes now being framed In the new
i v'-nue bill works out well, it is
considered probable that the bulk of
after the war revenue will come from
income levies, which next year will
yield probably $2,3000,000.000. Ex
cess profits taxes probably would
automallcallly be abandoned after
the war and liquor revenue will atop
If the constitutional prohibition a
mendment is ratified, and sooner
with the passage of the "war time"
prohibition bill. It is almost certain
that the multitude of minor taxes
now levied on transportation. Insur
ance, admissions, club dues, and
special taxes on certain businesses,
now yielding comparatively little
revenue and very difficult of ad
ministration, will be abandoned. To
bacco and estates taxes probably will
remain, K Is said.

TESTIMONY
The coal situation In Nebraskn
and throughout the country at pres
ent is so satisfactory tbat no state
wide late opening nn early closing
orders will be made by the fuel ad
ministration this winter. This or
der will remain in effect unless SSjsl
conditions materially change.
State administrators and state di
rectors of conservation are In m
advised by the Washington director
of conservation that the fuel situa
tion does not warrent such action.
State administrator are expected to
prepare orders from time to time to
meet local conditions, and general
recommendations along conserva
tion lines are being sent out from
Washington.
Announcement in letter
This announcement was made in
a letter to all state aaministrators
from G. N. Allen, acting director of
conservation, United States fuel ad
ministration, Washington. The let
ter follows:
"It has been decided that unless
conditions materially change, no
national order will be issued by the
opening and closing hours of offices.
stores and other mercantile estab-ment.
"While such nn order would un
doubtedly save considerable coal.
especiay during Ihe winter, the
great variation in local conditions
make it prnctlcally Impossible to
Issue a national order without work
ing greater h.-.rdsLip on some parts
of the country and on some classes
of trade than present conditions
warrant. We feel that except in
tho case of an acute fuel shortage,
the disruption of business and in
convenience to the public caused by
such an order would be out of pro
portion to the coal saved.
"The federal administration feels,
further, that under present condi
tions, no stp.te administrator would
issue any opening or closing order
regulating hours of offices, stores
and other mercantile establishments
and places of amusement, except
to meet an acute shortage of fuel
or power. When such a shoitage
occurs in any locality, the state
administration should draw up an
order which. In his opinion, best
meets such emergency, and have the
order approved by Washington be
fore putting it into effect.
"It is desired that such orders
be applied only to the localities in
the state where this emergency oc
curs. "While ruling against any rormal
"closing order" to effect a fuel sav
ing under present conditions, the
fuel administration urges the adop
tion of reasonable conservation
measures that can be effected by
voluntary agreement of any class
or class of trade or industry. Al
most everywhere unnecessary prac
tices have grown up, the elimina
tion of which will represent fuel
saving, and which can be put into
effct without injury to any one.
The fuel administration is prepar
ing some general recommendations
for saving power, heat and light in
the above mentioned establishments
which, it is believed, can be put into
effect without undue Inconvenience.
These recommendations will b sent
to the various stp.te administrators
at an early date."
