years. The treasury's handling of the
general surplus funds has been crude,
unbusinesslike, unprofitable and dis
criminatory. A working balance of
twenty-five million dollars in the
treasury is sufficient. The govern
ment can Increase its revenue two
million dollars a year by charging In
terest on the funds in government de
positories." Referring to a working balance the

unnecessarily retained In the treas
ury, sometimes aggregating a hundred
million It adds that in addition to

lecting Interest, the government lost
one "excess balance," which has been
