April 4 (AP) CAP) Giving assurance of treas ury surpluses for this fiscal year and next. President Hoover in a statement today warned that the margins depended upon the "most rigid economy" by congress and the executive departments. Mr. Hoover reported that the first installment of income tax col lections for this year showed that "the unfavorable developments of last fall did not affect individual incomes to the extent that many had feared," nor prevent corpora tions "from reporting for tax pur poses a net income substantially in excess of that reported for the calendar year 1928." C He said the government should be able to finish this fiscal year, ending June 30, "with a very mod erate surplus." Careful treasury estimates, he added, showed a margin of $47,000,000 to the good for the next fiscal year. However, the president said that already congress "has impos ed a burden of additional expend itures amounting to $30,000,000 during the next fiscal year" which would come out of the $47,000,000 surplus. He added that the "ma jor difficulty" ahead for next year arises from prospective legislation already favorably reported by con gressional committees which en tail "an additional burden of near ly $300,000,000 next fiscal year." This, he said, would "Inevitably result in a deficit."
