contemplated in budget es-

while there were bills pend-

calling for an additional out-
lay of $1,726,000,000.
At a White HtaM bnokfast con-
ference Mr. Hoover said a survey
by the director of the budget of de-
mands on the treasury, if granted
would Imply an increase in taxes
of at least 40 per cent.
None of the extatttng appropria-
