President's Message in Full
WASHINGTON, April 30. AP)
Roosevelt's relief meu& to congress
To the oonffret of ths Unltd
States:
In my budget mess&gs of January
t, 1037, I Hid that I would transmit
a-t a lrr date n tlmt of ap
propriation for work relief for the
fiscal year 1938. In connection with
thta estimate It la destrbsls to rTlew
our present fiscal 1 tuition.
Budget estimates mads last Decem
ber Indicated a net deficit for the
current fiscal year of 3,348.000,000.
They also Indicated a net surplus for
.th fiscal year 1938 of 81.537,000.000.
wtelusive of any provision for a work
relief appropriation.
New Factors Appear
On the basis of these estimates,
therefore, an appropriation for work
relief for the fiscal year 1938 of any
sum less than 81.637.000,000 would
have left at the end of that year a
budget In balance.
Sine then, however, new factors
have so altered the flscsl situation
as to make It necessary to present
revised estimates of receipts snd ex
penditures. There Is attached to this
message a statement showing the
present estimates for the fiscal years
1937 and 1938 as compared with the
estimates In my budget message. A
glanoe at this ststement will show
that the principal factor Is the de
cline In tax receipts below our prev
ious expectations.
Fiscal Year 1987
The analysis of returns received In
March 1937 under the new tax law
Indicates that Income taxes will pro
duce 83Q7.3O0.0O0 less than the form
er estimate for the fiscal year 1037.
The receipts for the first nine months
of this fiscal year Indicate that other
revenues will be 8337,000,000 less
than the estimate, which is due In
large part to the obstruction of col
lections by numerous lawsuits against
the government.
In view of the reduction In revenue
It became apparent that every effort
should be made to offset this loss
as fsr as possible by a reduction In
expend mires. To this end I hava di
rected the heads of various govern
ment activities to matte a careful
examination of their expenditure re
quirements for the lsst three months
of the present flscsl year with a view
to making aubitsntlal savings by
eliminating or deferring all expendi
tures not absolutely necessary dur
ing this period, the money so saved
to revert to the treasury. Informa
tion thus far available Indicates that
the 1937 expenditures will probably
be 8390,000.000 below the estimate of
Jsot January.
The amount of the net deficit for
the fiscal year 1037 Is therefore esti
mated at 83.897.000,000. an Increase
of 8309,000,000 over the January esti
mate. Fiscal Year 1938
For the fiscal year 193B It Is now
believed that receipts will be 8387,
600,000 less than was anticipated last
January, the reduction of 8410,000,
000 In the estimate of Income taxes
being slightly offset by Increases In
other receipts.
Pending the enactment of the 1938
appropriation bills It has been Im
possible to make any material revis
ion of the estimates of expenditures
for that fiscal year, other than for
recovery and relief.
The revised estimates of receipts
snd expenditures for the flscsl .r
1938 sa here presented Indicate an
estimated net deficit of 8418,000,000.
There Is Included In the estimates
of expenditures the 81.600,000.000 for
work relief hereinafter recommended.
I propose to use every means at
my command to eliminate this deficit
during the coming fiscal yesr. 1 ex
pect to accomplish this by tnktng
definite action a the beginning of
the next fiscal year, (1) to withhold
from apportionment for expenditure
Insofar as possible with due. regard
to proper functioning of the exec
utive departments and agencies a
substantia) percentage of the funds
available for that year, and (3) to
Increase the receipts of the treasury
through the liquidation of assets of
certain of the emergency agenclea.
X regard it a extremely Important
that we should achieve a balance of
actual Income and outgo for the fis
cal year 1938. and I appeal to you
to Join me In a determined effort
to bring about that result.
What I hsve said Is predlcsted on
two highly important conditions. The
first is the extension of existing taxes
which expire this yesr. The second
Is the maintenance of appropriations
made at this session within the total
of the budget estimates. An Increase
In approprtsttons would of course
nullify our efforts to prevent a def
icit In 1938.
And while I recognlre many op
portunities to Improve social and
economic conditions through federal
action. I m convinced that the suc
cess of our whole progrsm and the
permanent security of our people de
mand that we adjust all expendi
tures within the limits of my bud
get estimate.
Future Fiscal Policy
I emphaslra here what I said tset
January with respect to our future
fiscal policy:
"Expenditures must be planned
with a view to the national

needs; and no expansion of gov
ernment sctlvltles should be au
thorized unless the necessity for
such expansion has been defin
itely determined and funds are
available to defray the cost. In
other words, If new legislstlon
Imposes any substsntial Increase
In expenditures either In the ex
pansion of existing or the crea
tion of new sctlvltles, It becomes
a matter of sound policy slmul- -taneoualy
to provide new revenue
sufficient to meet the sddltlonal -cost."
Bills being pressed for enactment
during the present session would
commit the government to esrly ex
penditures of more than 86.000,000.
000. About 83.000,000.000 of these
authorizations are for the construc
tion of additional publlo works, even
though there are existing authoriza
tion of almost 83 000.000,000 for this
purpose. In the budget for the past
three years I have set up a progrsm
for general public works and . have
often ssld that such a program
should be kept within the limit of
8600,000,000 a yesr. An annual pro
grsm of, this size should meet nor
mal needs for highway, flood con
trol, rivers and harbors, reclamation,
federal buildings, and other public
works.
I recognize the need for flood pre
vention and control, but It should
be realized that to finance such
large Immediate expenditures as sre
contemplated by the majority of the
flood control bills now pending in
the congress would Impose an un
Justlflsble burden upon the federal
treasury.
Bills involving additional authori
zation of more than 8500,000,000 for
highways have been Introduced de
spite the fact that expenditures for
this purpose during the lsst four
years hsye 'exceeded one billion dol
lars and that there are existing au
thorizations for expenditures during
the next two years of nearly 8450,-
ooo.ooo.
The maintenance of a sound fis
cal policy requires the careful plan
ning of authorlratlons as well as sp
proprlatlons. It is Impossible to
maintain the proper balsnce be
tween revenues and expenditures un
less restraint la exercised with re
spect to authorizations and appro
priations. It Is a matter of concern
to you and to me who are wording
for s balanced budget that so many
speclftl groups exert the strongest
pressure to bring about Increases in
government expenditures. They pay
little attention to the foot that the
budget, as submitted, represents a
coordinated fiscal program and that
material departures therefrom de
stroy the whole purpose of the pro
gram. If we are to avoid a continu
ation of deficits, we must resist these
Importunities or provide the neces
sary revenues to meet the Increasing
costs.
It Is a matter of common knowl
edge Mint the principal danger to
modern clvlllwitlon lies In those na
tions which largely because of an
armament race are headed directly to
wards bankruptcy. In proportion to
national budgets the united States Is
spending a far smaller proportion of
government income for armaments
than the nations to which I refer.
It beehoves us, therefore, to continue
our efforts to make both ends of
our economy meet.

I recommend that an spproprlatlon

relief for the fiscal yesr 1938, and
that It be mode available early In

The chief executive said his new
estimate of federal Income and
spending this yesr was predicated on
two highly Important considerations
The first, he said. Is the extension
of existing taxes which expire this
year. The second Is the maintenance
of appropriations made at tbls ses
sion within the total of the budget
estimates. "An Increase on appropri
ations would, of course, nullify our
efforts to prevent a deficit In 1938.'
Auk Too Much.
He said bills being pressed for en
actment would commit the govern
ment to sn expenditure of more
than 85,000.000.000 mostly for pub
lic works, compared with 8500.000,
444 he had told congress wss neces
sary for an annual works program.
Bills providing more than 8500,
000,000 for highways have been In
troduced, Mr. Roosevelt, added, de
spite the fact that expenditures for
this purpose In the last four years
have exceeded 81.000,000.000 and ex
isting authorizations for the next
two years provide nesrly 84S0.0O0,
000 more.
Referring suddenly to International
armament races, the president said
"it Is a matter of common knowl
edge that the principal danger to
modern civilization lies In those na
tions which largely because of an
armament race are headed directly
towards bsnkruptcy."
Not In Arms Rare

After entering Into a detailed an
alysis of revised budget figures, Mr.
Roosevelt asked that his relief ap
propriation for next year be mads
available early In June "so that its
expenditure can be property plan
ned prior to July first."
Declaring maintenance of a sound
fiscal policy requires careful plan
ning of authorisations and appropri
ations, the president said It "Is Im
possible to maintain a proper bal
ance between revenues and expendi
tures unless restraint" Is exercised.
Then he added that be regarded
It as "extremely Important that we
