Raleigh, June 30 -While the final
figures on revenue collections and ex
penditures for the fiscal year that
closes at midnight tonight will not be
definitely known for ten days or so,
yet, indications are that the expendi
tures .from the general fund will not
materiall yexceed collections, it was
learned today from authoritative
sources. In other words, it is expected
that the final figures will show that
the State has lived within its budget
during this fiscal year and that there
■will be little or no deficit. Last year
the deficit as of June 30 amounted to
$4 084,000.
The total appropriations for this
cal year, as made by the 1933 Genera]
Assembly, amounted to $25,472,760.
But the Budget Bureau has held down
allotments and expenditures so that
the total amount spent by all the
Sat eagencies under the general fund
this year is not expected to exceed
$24,000,000, and may be even less than

By CHARLES P. STEWART
(Central Press Staff Writer)
Washington, June 30.—While times
have picked up somewnat; they have
not improved inadequately.
This is the impression I gathered
from talks with numerous inlustrial
notabilities, financial authorities, av
erage business men and labor leaders
luring a recent trip through the belt
from Pittsburgh, to the west and
northwestward as far as the Detroit
automotive area. I find it reflected
in official circles on my return to
Washington.
Inflation seemingly has not “taken”
as its advocates hoped and expected
it would.
They counted on it to increase prices
and thus stimulate buying.
The theory is reasonable. With
prices showing tendency to mount the
assumption i 3 that the public should
be encouraged to lay in supplies of all
sortg before the rising tide rises still
higher.
But the fact is that the tide doesn’t
rise very fast and the public doesn’t
respond to it very readily.
There i 3 some rise and some re
spons but both are insufficient.
Besides much apprehension is ex
pressed that neither will continue —
that a sag, instead, is imminent. On
my trip I repeatedly heard the guess
hazarded that a decline will begin to
be felt soon after President Roosevelt
leaves on his Pacific voyage—especial
ly if labor trouble spreads as threat
ened. Several commercial forecasters
I met venturd th prophsyt—
I met ventured the prophesy that the
White House tenant will be summoned
back in mid-vacation, to deal with the
situation.

Mr. Burroughs proposed to put 50
men in the plant early today to begin
work cleaning ou the explosives. The
jb would require about two days. He
said he would put the men in the
plant, ‘peacefully if posslgle”.
George Moorehouse, representative
of the United Textile Workers, denied
that thr was any dangr from explo
sion and charged that the plant man
agement had greatly exaggerated the
explosion danger and i s using it as a
subterfuge for the purpose of saving
expensive machinery and possibly per
suading the men to return to work.

Raleigh, June 30. —The school forces
of the State —or rather the city and
county superintendents—are already
starting to get their ducks in a row for
the next General Assembly, despite the
fact that it does not meet until Jan

But what thisl egislative committee
is planning to do remains a deep, dark
secret, since no one here seems to
know that it even met, to saying noth

understood to have met here Thurs
