CARS Trades Phone 108 to balance for another year or o. On the basis of current spending and tax trend it la quite probabie that Mr.

Roosevelt will end Ms second term with an uninterrupted series of treasury deficits. A downward deficit trend was interrupted last year by the 1987-38 depression which not only reduced federal tax revenue but forced Mr. Roosevelt further to un-balance the budget by new resort to expenshe pump-pruning. That combination of circumstance still affects the treasury books. Income was lagging behind expenditures a year ago but the lag is practically doubled because Mr.

Roosevelt lias spent more in the first four months of this fiscal year than in the pievlous comparative period while, simultaneously, federal tax collectors were obtaining less revenue. The current fiscal year began July 1, 1938. Since then the government has rolled up a net deficit of $1,318,000,000 compared with a net deficit of $678,000,000 in the corresponding period of the previous fiscal year. Here are other pertinent comparative figures: National debit this year last year $37,087,000,000. Expenses this year last year $2,971,00,000.

Receipts this year last year $2,971,000,000, Working balance this year $1,883,000,000, last year $847,000,000. Those figures show that the government is spending more and receiving less than a year ago. It Is notable, however, that the treasurys working balance, actual spending money on hand for any purpose, Is approximately more plentiful now than the corresponding time of the previous fiscal year. SEEKPHANT0M SLASHER HALIFAX, Nov. 28 CD Women of this grimy North England town today were ordered to remain Indoors after nightfall because of a phantom slasher who strikes unseen along darkened byways.

The slasher ad'fled an 11th victim to his list early this morning, slipping up behind Mrs. Constance ll'ood, a mill worker, only a few from her doorway. "He knocked her down, hacked thru her heavy coat to inflict two gashes In her left arm, and escaped. Police have been unable to trace the slasher, who has attacked 11 persons within the past seven days. All but two of the victims were women.

None was seriously wounded. from one of two women who were slashed last night brought nearby firemen to the rescue. Crowds leaving church joined the hunt but without success. It was feared the phantom, who so far only has wounded his ylc--tims with a sharp-edged weapon, might suddenly turn murderer. Women of this industrial town, at least those brave enough still to venture out at night, were arming themselves with large hatpins, bags of pepper and walking-sticks for self-defense.

Patrols of Boy Scouts were pressed into service. Some believed the attacks might be the work of three persons who, as one police official put it, were revelling in publicity. Since the majority of those slashed were women, another theory was that the phantom might be someone who has been supplanted in his job by a woman. The only clue to the slasher's identity has come from one of the women victims who described him as having staring eyes and a big mouth which she said she would recognize again. It was expected troops would be brought in soon if other measures fail to catch him.
