Income Way Up. There are statistical indications the government's income for the fiscal year will surpass by at least $50,000,000 the $5,224,000,000 expected in last April's revised budget.

The June 24 statement, the latest available, showed receipts aggregating $5,213,031,412, already exceeding by more than a billion dollars the 1930 boom-time collections, and highest since the war period. The government's spending for the fiscal year will exceed but very likely will be held within the revised budget estimate of $8,182,000,000. Other notable developments during the fiscal year that will be reflected in the year-end accounting include: 1. Borrowing of approximately $2,250,000,000 in fresh funds, lowest new money financing for any fiscal year since the Roosevelt administration took office. Gold Program.

2. Beginning of the gold "sterilization" program, designed to aid in preventing undue credit inflation. 3.

The 1937 deficit, lowest since 1931 when the government spfnd-ing exceeded income by more than $901,959,000, was considered significant in that it indicated the beginning of an era of economy.

It was in marked contrast with the 1936 deficit of $4,763,841,643. highest incurred for any New Deal fiscal year. Treasury statistics indicate a decrease of almost $700,000,000 in spending as compared with the 1936 fiscal year. 4 KILLED, 12 INJURED IN BRITISH TRAIN CRASH LONDON, June 27.
