Speaking before more than 1 000 executive officers at the seventh semi-annual meeting oi the business organization of the ff government at the close of tne fiscal year, the chief executive outlined his policies for the future with the declaration that all ol his subordinates must enter into them in 'spirit as well as in ECONOMY- lice.

"A comparison of our receipts and expenditures for the last years illustrates conclusively what has been accomplished during the three years oC the budget system.

On the other side ot the ledger our receipts I'or 1922 were $4,007,000,000 and 1924, $3,995,000,000. An analysis of these figures uhows that In the race of a progressive reduction in receipts we have still achieved a substantial surplus at the end of each of tho fiscal years for 1922. $310,000,000 for 1923 and $498,000,000 for 1924. "The amounts -which I have staled as being the expenditures, receipts and surplus for the fiscal year 1924. which ends today, are "only approximate.

We will not have the actual figures until the books are finally balanced. The surplus accumulated at the end of oacm of tho last throe fiscal yvars has been applied to the reduction of the public debt In addition to the surplus required by under the sinking fund and other acts. Without the aid of i recurring surplus the public debt would be $1,100,000,000 more than It now stands, and the interest charges would be some $45,000.000 greater next year than shall now have to pay. REDUCE DEBT. "Along with this reduction In expenditures has gone a progressive reduction of the public debt with its attendant relief from the burden of interest.

On June SO. 1921, i public debt was $23,976.000,000. In 1922 it had been reduced more than $1,000,000,000 to $22.964,000.000. In 1923 it had been reduced more than $600,000,000 to 349, 000, 000.

The three budgets presented by the chief executive to the congress have' carried drastic, progressive reductions in their estimates tot Congress has adhered to budget procedure Jn passing these estimates.

The appropriations granted have been in harmony with the financial program of the chief The president announced that he would submit estimates more than $3,000,000.000 for expenditures in the fiscal year beginning -fuly He fixed that' figure as the maximum and Instructed the officers under him to find a way to cut 183,000,000 from -their present estimates which a preliminary character and appropriations of this cut is made, Mr. Coolidge said, the surplus for the, year covered 'by those estimate's -would" approximate JIO.8.0'00,000.
