The MARCH OF TIME REG. U.S.PAT. OFF. Prepared by the Editors of TIME The Weekly Newsmagazine SEVENTH DEFICIT— WASHINGTON — With the federal fiscal year ended June 30, the United States treasury department clicked off on its adding machines a simple subtraction to discover the net result (in millions of dollars) of the United States governments operations for fiscal 1937: Spent $3,001 Received 5,294 In the hole $2,707 The $8,001,000,000 expenditure was more than twice the size of pre-depression government spending but smaller than the $8,447,-000,000 spent in fiscal 1936 and the first downtrend in spending since the New Deal took charge of the treasury. But fiscal 1936's chief expenditures were for the soldiers' bonus, and elimination of this non-recurring factor meant that the spending trend was still upward. Federal receipts of $5,294,000,-000 were 23% larger than in fiscal 1936, about the same amount larger than pre-depression receipts, and for the fifth year in succession had grown until now they are the largest in history—except for 1920 and 1921 when war taxes were still in force. Previous all-time high: $6,695,000,000 in fiscal 1920. Fiscal 1937's deficit of $2,707,-000,000 is only about 60% of fiscal 1936's deficit of $4,361,000,000. This is the smallest deficit since the New Deal began, but the seventh annual deficit of the Unitin Wall street sentiment, which have a telling effect on the stock-market, can never be adequately explained. But when the stock-market went up last week, not in a whooping rally but enough to give industrial averages a net gain of nearly three points, the chief contributing factors seemed to be the lifting in some measure of the triple threat of strikes, war and perennial money troubles in France. While war talk is a stockmarket depressive it is always a shot in the arm for the grain market. As a bumper United States wheat harvest rolled north during the week, the red cereal soared to a high of $1.26½ per bushel on the Chicago Board of Trade, registered a net gain of 10¢ for the week. Moreover Canada suffered during the past few weeks a disastrous wheat crop failure, drought and rust cutting 150,000,000 bushels off early crop estimates of the dominion's harvest. With a billion-dollar wheat crop in prospect for the United States, the department of agriculture predicts that total farm income this year will top $10,000,000,000 for the first time since 1929. COFFEE CROP— SANTOS, Brazil — Because the only way to keep coffee expensive enough to suit growers is to burn it in big, grey-green mounds, Brazil's national coffee department has since 1931 sent $250,-000,000 worth of Brazil's chief crop up in smoke. Estimating that many another earnest denominational organ, the Protestant Episcopal "Chronicle" last week deplored: "People do not attend church in the summer months. This seasonal lull seems...to defy solution." In Philadelphia, however, when he heard his secretary observe that many local churches were being "put in mothballs," lived Rev. John Robbins Hart o St. Stephen's Episcopal church promptly propagandized among his colleagues for an Anti-Mothball society. By last week he had more than a score of participating churches busily organizing, be sides steady services, interdenominal stunt nights. At S Stephen's stunt night, the Ant Mothball unit ceremoniously dumped bags of mothballs. Fiscal 1937's deficit of $2,707,-000,000 is only about 60% of fiscal 1936's deficit of $4,361,000,000. This is the smallest deficit since the New Deal began, but the seventh annual deficit of the United States, bringing the public debt to an all-time high of $38,-400,000,000. Two little fiscal headaches remained over from fiscal 1937: Although it had been in session for six months prior to fiscal New Year's day, congress had not passed all regular appropriation bills so that departments would have money to spend beginning July 1. With the war and interior departments' bills still unpassed, the senate adopted a "continuing resolution" allowing those departments to spend for two weeks at the same rate as last year, then house and senate leisurely went about the business of passing the permanent appropriation bills. NATIONAL JAMBOREE WASHINGTON — Into Washington union station one day last week rolled train after train bearing 25,000 grinning, bare-kneed boys in khaki, arriving from all parts of the United States for the first national jamboree of the Boy Scouts of America. At 8:45 next morning a trench mortar boomed and all stood at attention. It boomed again and the flags of 52 nations rose in an avenue of banners beneath the Washington monument. It boomed a third time, and up went 1,634 more flags throughout the encampment, officially opening the 10-day jamboree. On the first evening, some 28,000 boys and scout masters assembled at the monument's base for the lighting of the camp fire by wizened little Daniel Carter Beard, Scout idol, who with trusty flint and steel struck the spark. Program of the jamboree included sightseeing trips, "arena displays," a Sea Scout regatta, a fireworks display, speeches about Scout ideals, informal swapping of strange trinkets—including wampum, pine cones, stuffed birds, sharks teeth, shells, sponges, live hoot owls, pickled scorpions. But the jamboree's high-spots were a 10-mile motor tour of the 350-acre encampment larger than predecessors, and for the fifth year in succession had grown until now they are the largest in history—except for 1920 and 1921 when war taxes were still in force. Previous all-time high: $6,695,000,000 in fiscal 1920. Fiscal 1937's deficit of $2,707,-000,000 is only about 60% of fiscal 1936's deficit of $4,361,000,000.

Dr. Hart also found time to play left field in 12 games last month with his semi-professional baseball team (Jack Hart's Collegians), to perform form 3D weddings. In Los Angeles leslies Pastor Carl Allen of Woodcrest Community Methodist Episcopal church got the approval on his governing board to change The Sabbath service to Thursday every evening; explained: "The residents of this community are working every possible day to make up for the worry during the depression... I believe they should be free to go to the beach or mountains Sunday without feeling it is wrong... Jesus consistsently taught that man was to have preference over any creed; custom; dogma or law." That United States church membership is increasing faster than the population is revealed in this annual statistical report of "Christian Herald," which points out that there are 63,493，O3 church members in the land—837，494 more than last year; that the rate of increase was 1.33%, compared to .71% for population. Biggest churches are the Roman Catholic (20，831，139), Baptist (10，332，055), Methodist (9，199，359), Lutheran (4，589，660). Biggest protestant gains were registered by the Baptists (140，398) and the Reformed church (81，958). The Church of Christ Scientists and the Jewish bodies reported change. Small churches tend to grow faster than big ones. Dignomination with a membership of more than 50，ooo gained an average of 1.1% while lesser secured "reached the astonishing figure of 29.49%. Last year 49.43% of that population was "affiliated with some church," as compared with 46.6% in 1926.

But the jamboree's high-spots were a 10-mile motor tour of the 350-acre encampment by President Roosevelt, Chief Scout Executive James E. West and Dan Beard; a review by the president on Constitution avenue next day. The scout jamboree cost upwards of $600,000. Land, army tents and similar equipment were loaned by the United States government and the city of Washington; traveling and living expenses were met by the scouts. Bigger than the medical staff of nearly 200 doctors was the kitchen staff; 250 chefs in 25 big kitchen tents who made 400,000 flapjacks for breakfast, copied with 30,000 quarts of milk, 70,000 eggs, two tons of sugar, 13,000 lbs. of meat. Telephone connections and mail deliveries to the camp sites were organized on a similar scale. No amateur movement but a full-grown United States institution, the Boy Scouts of America is today one of the most elaborately integrated, self-perpetuating social mechanisms in a nation which dotes on organization, currently has on its roster 1,075,000 American boys. Chief Executive West's records reveal that altogether some 7,500,000 scouts and scout-leaders have been connected with the organization during the last 27 years, that one out of four United States boys is connected with the scouts at some time during adolescence. MARKET AND TRADE—NEW YORK — Mercurial shifts DR. THOMAS W. ROSS FURTHER SAYS IN THE "MEDICO" THAT "From the rubbing stones to the wash tub, there is a step forward, inasmuch as the wash tub water is usually disposed of as surface water, BUT FROM THE WASH TUB TO THE MODERN LAUNDRY THERE IS A THOUSAND LEAGUE LEAP OF PROGRESS. Our present day laundry begins its health crusade at the start. It does not pollute water supplies. The laundry does not merely dilute dirt and resisting bugs—it scientifically removes dirt, and painlessly causes all bugs to expire.

Philadelphia, however, when his secretary observe any local churches were out in mothballs," lively John Robbins Hart of St. Stephen's Episcopal church propagated among laymen on the summer months. By last week he had an a score of participating busily organizing, beady services, interdenominational stunt nights. At St. Stephen's stunt night, the Anti-Unit ceremoniously bags of mothballs over green sprouts popped from the walls of Jeffersonville's Chestnut Street school, called for an investigation when the sprouts grew into maple saplings. Inquiry revealed that last spring seeds had dropped from a maple tree under which workmen were mixing plaster to repair the school's flood-damaged walls.

Reeves of President Roosevelt's advisory committee on education presented facts and figures to show how good a friend of education Franklin Roosevelt is: The federal government spent over $21,800,000 to keep rural schools open in 1934 and 1935, loaned $84,271,000 through PWA, spent another $213,832,000 for school buildings and repairs up to the end of 1936. The National Youth administration had 435,000 students on its lists, WPA had given work to 42,-000 unemployed teachers, there have been 1,500,000 youngsters in the CCC. But since NEA's pet Harrison-Black-Fletcher pill, providing up to $300,000,000 a year in federal school subsidies to the states, had this year been sidetracked by the president in his economy message to congress, Ohio's fiery Representative Brooks Fletcher uprose at the convention to explain: "When the richest nation on earth permits seven million—nearly a third—of its school children to be taught by a quarter million teachers who receive less than $750 a year, and 30,000 poverty-stricken teachers who receive less than $450 a year, there is need for an awakening of civic pride in the discharge of obligations to children." Another new enactment of major importance to dairymen is A. B. 1826, the O'Donnell bill, appropriating $2,500,000 to complete eradication of tuberculosis in California. The governor signed the bill, but cut the appropriation to $1,500,000, thereby making it impossible to sign A.
