Flow of Money to the Treasury Showing a Gain Shrinkage Shown in Deficit Under Influence of Tax Collection; Optimistic Outlook. Washington. Feeling at last the influence of income tax collections, the deficit for the current fiscal year is shrinking. In the six day3 from Sept. 14 to Sept. 20 it fell from 24G million dollars to 192 million, a drop of 54 million and treasury officials estimate that some 40 millions of September income tax collections have Etill to be reported. In addition, the daily statements of the treasury are showing a sur plus for the month thus far. It stood j at $36,000 on Sept. 20, the last date reported, while the comparable per iod of a year ago showed expendi tures -were running 102 minions above receipts. Secretary Woodin is highly opti mistic regarding the outlook for the remainder of the fiscal year. He would not be surprised, he has said, if the result is the first surplus since 1930. All the categories of rev enue are trending upward, he said, and he expects a big improvement in income tax collections when March and June payments fall due. Sup- i porting his contention the treasury made public a compilation of inter nal revenue receipts for August,! showing a total collected of $149,- 707,708 as compared with $130,732,- 608 for July and $79,940,310 for August, 1932. Beer taxes jumped $830,549, totalling $15,049,564 fot August as compared with $14,219,- 015 for July. Gasoline tax receipts rose from $15,799,053 to $22,420, 634. Gains were shown as well in tax collections on cigars, cigarets capital stock, dividends and other classifications. If the enormous emergency expen ditures in connection with the recov ery program are deducted from the figures for the fiscal year thus far, the result shows receipts well above the treasury's ordinary outlays. The statement for Sept. 20 listed total re ceipts since the fiscal year began at $609,888,S97, ordinary expenditures at $535,791,170, emergency expendi tures at $266,879,707 and total ex penditures of $802,670,878.

State Journal. RULING ON BONDS ISSUED Washington. The federal trade commission made public an opinion holding that purchasers of misrepre sented stocsk or bonds can recover un der the new securities law up to the purchase price of the security from the underwriter. The commission made public a letter from B. B. Bane, chief of its. securities division, to an unnamed underwriter who asked about liabilities under the law, where a misstatement was made. Bane said that there is nothing to prevent the purchaser of a stock re belling iu an effort to cut his losses but that," if "fce-'kag "disposed of the eeeunty at a price, no damages would be recoverable." a.

Wescott's Since 1879 State Fair Cannot Pay Its Bills in Full Grand Stand Receipts Paid on Bonds Now Totals $59,465 Ex penses Were Cut. State fair receipts, including grand stand receipts, total $53,903.71, said Secretary Reed. If the grand stand receipts amounting to $9,312.45 could be used to pay expenses, Reed said the board of managers could pay all expenses of the fair, totaling $54,- 410.09, as there is a little rent money in sight. As evidence that the fair board has cut expenses he said the expense of the fair last year was $77,786. It will be necessary to pro rate the cash now on hand between claim ants. The board must first deduct from its cash the $9,312.45 of grand stand receipts, which go to pay grand stand bonds, and also to deduct some items of expense for labor which are not pro ratable and which could properly be classed either as labor or maintenance expenditures. Reed does not know the amount of these claims fct this time and cannot now esti mate the amount on the dollar which will be paid to claimants. The $250,000 of grand stand bonds were issued in . 1929 under authority of the legislature, and sold to pri vate parties, the receipts of the grand stand being pledged for their pay ment. Reed said the fair board this year paid out more for entertainment in front of the grand stand than the re ceipts of the stand amounted to, yet it cannot use any of the receipts for expenses of the fair. Since the bonds were issued $12,500 was paid on the principal. The total paid by the fair board to the trust company on the bonded debt now totals $59,465.98, including the grand stand receipts for this year. Part of the receipts of the grand stand this year go to pay interest on the bonds which was not paid last April, Reed said. The in terest on the bonds annually is about $13,000, he said. The receipts of the grand stand are turned over ot the First Trust company of Lincoln, he said. Reed made this statement: "If we were able to use the $9, 312.45 of receipts from the grand stand toward the expenditures for 1933 we would be able to pay out in full. On account of the drastic cut in the appropriation for maintenance as allowed by the 1933 state legisla ture, it has been necessary to include in our expenditures some items of ex pense that have heretofore been taken care of out of the maintenance fund. "The rules and regulation for the 1933 Nebraska state fair as included in our premium list s-rtes as follows: 'If the receipts of the 1933 state fair are not sufficient to pay expenses in full, such expenses may be pro-rated. This rule shall not apply to labor." As labor claims must be paid in full this will necessitate cutting down the pro-rata share of all other claims."

S. to Purchase Surplus Stocks to Help Needy President Roosevelt Orders Use $75,000 for Speedy Aid T-vo-Fold Aim. of "Washington, Sept.. 21. Purchase of surplus foodstuffs and staples for distribution to the nation's needy was ordered tonight by President Roose velt. lie directed agricultural adjust ment and federal relief administra tors to speed this program with the two-fold purpose of stabilizing glut ted markets and feeding the unem ployed. It was emphasized by Mr. Roose velt that this relief is to be in addi tion to that already being extended by federal, state and local author ities. It i3 to be given particularly to those areas where the president now considers the food and clothing for the needy totally inadequate. Buy in Open Market. The products under consideration for purchase include beef, dairy and poultry, cotton and cotton seed. The government will buy in the open market. A rough estimate placed the total cost of the under taking at about 75 million dollars. The cotton purchased will be manu factured into clothing. These foodstuffs and clothing will be in addition to the 100 million pounds of cured pork the government is giving to the unemployed from hogs purchased under a plan already in operation. Wants Needy Cared for. The relieef move fits into the gen eral Roosevelt attack upon surpluses that have been smothering prices. The president also expressed the de termination that the 3.500,000 on re lief rolls shall be cared for. At his desk in his study, the pres ident announced the relief program late today. He read over a prepared announcement later given out by his secretary, Stephen T. Early, and then discussed it with newspapermen. Mr. Roosevelt said he considered the program one of the most direct blows at the economic paradox that hda left farms burdened with an abundance of food products while un employed have gone hungry. Speed Is Demanded. In the effort to reduce the sur pluses, the administration has been negotiating for the sale of wheat and cotton abroad. The president made it clear that he wanted the departments concern ed to expedite in every possible way their combined attack, on the food surplus and hunger problems. Secretary Wallace and Harry Hop kins, the federal relief administra tor, are now in Chicago and early moves by them are in prospect. World-Herald.

The American public's enthusiasm for the new deal, crupled with cer tain new national legislation and the normal working of economic forces, all of which have combined to change the psychology of the people from de pression to hope, have brought about a sharp improvement In business con ditions since last March, said Henry I. Harriman, president of the U. S. Chamber of Commerce, in Omaha Thursday. Harriman, with 15 other directors of the national chamber, stopped in Omaha several hours en route to Colorado Springs for the board's fall meeting.
