WASHINGTON. Sept. 27.
Conitress today Is nearUiB the end of the
Breatest money-raising feat In tho history
of world's parliaments. N'o nation, within
an equal time, ever appropriated such sums
totaling $:0,000,000.000 for any purpose.
Means for raising $19,600,000,000 have
heen provided under revenuo and hond bills.
Only tho conference report on the $1,500,.
000,000 revenue bill awaits final disposition
tod.ty.
Out of the giant appropriations may be
traced tho new courses modern warfaro
has taken. Nearly $7,000,000,000 has been
set aside for the army, of which about a
tiuru is nevoted to artillery nnd ammuni
tion alone. Shipbuilding has demanded
more than a billion. Aircraft production Is
Blven a start with $694,000,000 and more
to come.
An even $7,000,000,000 Is provided for
loans to tho Allies. The navy has needed
to date only $1,606,000,000.
There Is pending a soldiers and sailors'
Insurance bill, which appropriates $176,
250,000 to take care of the wounded and
dependents.
More than elfiht and a half millions have
heen set aside for the selective draft. Her
bert Hoover receives $162,500,000 to con
trol the food situation, whye Secretary of
ABrlculture Houston has $11,346,400 to
hold a nation-wide survey and learn what
tho food supply really Is.
But even with tho great sums raised,
expenditures of tho Government up to June
30, 1913, will lcavo more than a billion
dollar deficit If more funds aro not raised.
Senator Lodge figures the deficit will reach
$3,000,000,000. Tho problem of meeting this
will bo left to tho December session.
The deficit Is based on the fact that. In
addition to war expenditures of $17.6S7.
872,932, there will be other regular expendi
tures to bring tho total to $20,631,700.73.
Only $19,371,000,000 Is netted from the two
bond bills, war revenue bill and the regular
revenues of the Government. The first bond
bill signed by the President. April 21, pro
vided for $.",000,000.000 In bonds and
$2,000,000,000 In certificates of Indebted
ness. The second bill provided for $11,533.
000,000, but of this $3,000,000,000 goes to
convert bonds authorized but not Issued
under the first bill, leaving a total of "new
funds" nf $8,633,000,000. The war revenue
bill will produco approximately $2,500,
000.000, whllo regular revenues will add
$1,333,000,000 more.

Winter Suits
I Fifteen dollars for a Suit or an Overcoat such as
we would offer to Perry Customers will soon have
entered the Limbo of forgotten things. When
these $15 selections now on our counters are
exhausted, we have slim prospects of being able to
replace them at the price. We are just preparing
you for the inevitable gently like.
1 At $18 the horizon still is clear. We have stacks
of Suits and Overcoats at that price the best that
can be produced! s .
$ But at $20, we have done ourselves proud!
Cfl Frankly, they should not be sold at so low a
figure. But Perry's is the store of the popular
priced man. At $20 we cut loose. We delight in
crowds of customers. We just love to see every
date on the business calendar a busy day.
i
J And we've done the thing to turn the trick!
'We've combined a substance and solidity of value,
an elegance of style and a class of tailoring in
these twenty-dollar Suits and Overcoats that's
bound to enhance the reputation bf .Perry's as the
popular-priced men's store !
