Confused reports of the death of a second Swedish Red Cross worker as a result of the Dolo bombing a week ago reached the British foreign office from its legation to Addis Ababa.

Jan. Pertinent phrases from President 1937 budget message: It is a cause of congratulation within our own nation to realize that a broad national adopted nearly three years ffgo by the congress and the has thus far moved steadily and successfully toward its objective. Wo can look forward today to a continued reduction of deficits, to increased tax receipts, and to declining expenditures for the needy unemployed. Let it be remembered that the major part of the increase in tax receipts anticipated in 1937 over 1936 from comparable sources is coming from old tax it is worthy of note tliut but eiiglitly less than 30 per cent of this Increase (ill revenues 1937 over 1936) will be derived under the revenue tux of 1935. Duly about $222,000,000 will he collected ill 1937 as a result of New Schedules in the revenue uct of 1935.

Final success (in pushing rev enues up, relief costs down) will depend of course, on the strength of the efforts put forth by the employers of the United btates greatly to increase the number of persons employed by; them- Tax Receipts ure continuing a steady climb which commence ed in the summer of 1933 whereas budget estimates for Hie next flHcal year will show a decreased for appropriii- ions. The credit of the government is at its highest. The average cf the business men of the ticn stand ready to do their share. It is to be hoped that motives and attacks which spring only from the desire for political or financial power on the part cf a few will not retard the steady progress we are making. It is reasonably certain that the total appropriations for work relief during fiscal year 1937 wll he far less than during the current fiscal year.

If the enacts legislation at the coming session charges upon the treasury for which provision is not already made in this I strongly urge that additonal taxes be provided to cover such charges. Ilesboro Couple Are who sued. p. m. ment.

He gave notice that next the public would amount accordingly. Just Mr. Roosevelt a debt at the end of the 1936-37 period of $31,351,638,737. This would be an all time high. There was not the slightest hint ol readiness to meet demands from the opposition for an immediately balanced budget.
