Melancholia.
WASHINGTON. Jan. 5. The boy
who know their numbers noted that
Mr. Roosevelt waa excessively melan
choly about this year's budget.
He gave himself every possible bad
break In figuring out that he would
be seven billions In the red next
June 30.
It could not have been a slip of
the pen when he estimated that the
RFC would apend more than three
billions In the next six months. To
make that estimate he counted com
mitments on which advances may
never be made.
Also he openly underestimated his
receipts by not counting expected
revenue from liquor and administra
tive changes In the income tax law.
Furthermore he piled 1,116.000.000
more on the deficit AFTER the treas
ury had completed the budget and
sent It to him for approval.
The number boys believe it is more
logical to expect a deficit nearer four
billions than seven billions.
Strategy.
They qualify that prediction by
saying it will work out that way un
less Mr. Roosevelt has some sensa
tional new plan for getting rid "t
money which he Is not yet telling
anyone about. They do not believe
he has any auch plBn. They think
they can detect a very shrewd strat
egy behind the pessimism.
Congress always wants to apend
money. Already bllla are being intro
duced proposing ten billions and
even twenty billions more for public
works. There were more bills intro
duced tho opening day urging the
restoration of veterans' cuts than
there were on any other subjects. It
let alone, congress would- spend all
the money there Is In sight and some
which Isn't.
By crooning a melancholy budget
tunc, Mr. Roosevelt la throwing a
scare Into congress. He specifically
points out thnt the government must
borrow ten billions, a staggering sum.
Mr. Roosevelt's record Indicates he
was smart enough to have figured
that all out ahead of them.
Optimism.
The only danger In that policy la
the possibility that he may scare
everyone else, Including the govern
ment bondholders.
He took care of that danger by a
very optimistic outlook on the budget
next year and a promise to balance it
In 1036. He assumed the supremely
happy position that he would be able
to cut out nearly all the relief appro
priations next year when most of his
friends privately bclievo he cannot
possibly retrench that much.
He put next year's deficit at only
two billions, on that basis.
Existing prospects are strong that
It win be more than that.
Also you will note that the balanc
ing year la the third one and a long
way off.
Skill.
In every little way Mr. Roosevelt's
budget la astounding.
It is customary for administrations
to minimize their estimates of ex
penditures and magnify their expect
ed receipts. That leads everyone to
believe they are doling a business-like
Job. To be so frank and peaalmistle.
Mr. Roosevelt violated all tradition.
In addition he very cooly avoided
any commitments on his money pol
icy or any other policy. He specifi
cally said he would have to "borrow"
the money for the deficit. Nowhere
did he hint that he expected to get
the three billions In profit for the
treasury to be derived from dollar
devaluation.
Borrowing 10 billions Is a big Job.
especially when six billions of It t
new debt. The wise boys betleve that
after he gets rid of congress he will
have to devalue. So when he winds
up his fiscal year in June he may
find the financial condition of the
treasury is less than half as bad as
he thought It would be. Then he
can point with pride.
Debt.
Similarly unusual waa the fact that
the president made no effort to eon
real the expected Increase In the pub
lic debt. He estimated It would he
31 billions by June 30. IMS.
That means It will be five billions
more than the peak of our world
war debt The blceest debt we ever
had was 28 billions In August. 11117.
Also It means Mr. Roosevelt will
hsve Increased the debt more than
.V) pe- cent, during the first three
rears of his term When he came
Into office It was JO billions.
Cheer.
The best rral news in the budget
Is the hidden prediction It mskes on
bumM recovery.
. The covernment statisticians had
to prophesy the extent of business
prospects specifically in order to com
pute expected tax revenues. They
ficured industrial artivttT t an In
dex of 79 for the first half of 1P34.
That compare with the exttine In
dex of 73 and means In a reneral
way that they expect about an aver
sc 6 per cent improvement in busi
ness this rear.

PLEA FOR PAROLE;
FOLSOM PRISON. Jan. !. (AP)
The parole application of Warren K.
Billings who was convicted with
Thomas J. Mooney for bombing the
1916 San Francisco preparedness day
parade, was denied today by the state
board of prison terms and paroles.
, The board Issued a prepared state
ment, concluding with these words:
"Because of his past criminal record
and the gravity of his offense, this
board believes the application for pa
role should not be granted."
Billings asserted he was not sur
prised at the adverse action of the
board.
"I think that If the matter were
left to the decision of the parole
board without directions from 'higher
ups, the board would hsve granted
me a parole."
Akrd whether he had In mind
Governor James Rolph. Jr.. consider
ing the fact the governor had denied
a pardon to Mooney. Billings replied:!
"Yes. I guess so. I think the gov
ernor's feelings toward the Mooney
caw had some bearing on my case."
WASHINOTON, Jan. 8. (AP) Sena

TO SPENDING BEE
Public Opinion Alone Can
Halt Expenditures, As So
lons Dominated Liquor
Bill Comes Up This Week
WASHINGTON, Jan. 6. (AP) Re
publicans began their promised bom
bardment of the Roosevelt budget to
day as the senate and house took
time-off and prepared for the conr.
tests to come.
With both houses In recess until
Monday and committees and leaders
busying themselves for next week's
grappling with liquor taxes, the St.
Lawrenco waterway treaty and ap
propriation measures, a mld-westorn
senate Republican gave the cue to
the opposition plans for fighting
hug .additional outlays.
In a statement, Senator Patter
son (R., Mo.) said President Roose
velt's estimate of a deficit of more
than 7.000,000.000 this year made it
obvious that "we aro traveling along
the road to financial ruin."
"Both branches of congress are so
overwhelmingly under the control of
the administration," he asserted,
"that only an aroused public opin
ion can stop the wild orgy of spend
ing now going on."
Democratic leaders retorted that
the president's budget message was
a frank statement of conditions
brought about by essential emergency
spending, that the budget was near
ly balanced and that by 1036 both
ordinary and emergency appropria
tions would be on a pay-as-you-go
basis.
During the Informal budget debate.
Chairman Harrison of the senate fi
nance committee announced his
group would meet Monday to expe
dite the house liquor tax bill, but
started a round of discussion by
saying It would give "very serious
consideration" to the plan for a
2.60 tax wltU a credit of 30 per
cent to atates'nhat refrained from
enacting gallonsge levies.
The liquor tax bill probably will
not reach the senate floor until mid
week. Meanwhile, the senate will act
on nominations, Including that of
Henry Morgentl.au, Jr.. as treasury
secretary, and may begin considera
tion of the controverted St. Lawrence
waterway treaty with Canada.

18,000 Angry Farmers
Picket Highway Blame
'Chiselcrs Local, Up
state Situation Unchanged
CHICAGO. Jan. 6. (P) A milk em
bargo, marked by violence and threat
ening the city's comfort and health,
tightened around Chicago tonight as
18.000 angry farmers picketed high
ways and defied their neighbors' at
tempts to deliver milk.
Chicago and scores of towns sur
rounding It within a radius of 100
miles were menaced with a milk short
ace by Monday. In some of the towns,
dairy companies announced they
would be unable to make Sunday de
liveries. Thousands of gallons of milk were
dumped on. highways, and countless
farmers In Illinois, Wisconsin, and
Indiana refrained from marketing
their milk, or were restrained by
neighbors from doing so.
Even tile big dairy companies of
Chicago admitted their supplies had
been cut down seriously.
Only dairies supplying hospitals and
other Institutions were allowed to ob
tain their quotas from farmers. Steps
were taken, slso, to assure adequate
supplies for Infants.
Leslie G. Goudie, negotiating with
the dairies for the union, said he be
lieved the companies had been unfair
to both the farmers and the drivers.
Officials of the PMA. however, placed
blame for the strike on the shoulders
of small, independent dairies (not
members of the Chicago milk coun
cil) which sold on a cut rate cash-and-carry
basis and refused to abide
by the milk marketing agreement
reached last summer under the agri
cultural adjustment act.
The Medford milk situation, over
which the State Milk control board
assumed Jurisdiction Friday, setting
prices to be followed, remained little
changed yesterday. One depot, which
Friday increased Its price, was report
ed complying with state order, while
the other was understood to be still
selling milk at 25 cents a gallon. The
state board demanded an increase to
30 cents.
Word was received from the north,
announcing the early arrival here of
E. O. Harlan, chairman of the con
trol board. Local officials are taking
no action in the matter, which Is en
tirely In the hands of the state board.
PORTLAND, Ore., Jan. 6. (&) A
temporary milk price basis, to be In
force pending further investigation,
was announced here today by the Ore
gon State Milk control board. The
prices are virtually the same as those
now in effect.
Prices fixed by the board, which
was created by the state legislature
at Its recent special seaslon, were
scheduled to go Into effect Tuesday
morning.
