Washington, D. C The federal gov
ernment finished the fiscal year Tues
day with a surplus in excess of $345,
000.000, nearly $50,000,000 greater than
any previous estimate and more than
twice as large as was calculated when
the year began.
Another phase of treasury opera
tions that gave rise to feelings of sat
isfaction was the continued upward
trend of receipts from income taxes.
Despite the reductions n tax
rates which have been effective
throughout the current fiscal year,
total internal revenue receipts are ex
pected to fall only about $220,000,000
below the receipts for the last fiscal
year, which totaled $3,975,912,000.
Total receipts to June 15 of this year
were roughly $3,750,000,000. Since re
ceipts from income taxes thus far
are only about $80,000,000 below those
for 1924, it thus becomes obvious that
the shrinkage In the revenues has
been in the miscellaneous group and
as a result of the abolition of certain
taxes.
