STATE ill AD
TO ITS TAXABLES
Available Funds for Urgent ana
Grewing Demands Get Lewer
and Lewer Each Year
LIKE LIVING BEYOND INCOME
lly GKOHttK XOX MrCAIN
The available, funds of the State have
been getting lower and lower for the
Inst year. Thnt K tlie money hi the
"genernl fund."
It is out rif tills thnt nil general np
pronriatiens nre pnld.
Ter lack of money In it, bills, hnve
accumulated and remained unpaid.
Its balances, enverlnc n neried of
months, nre n hnremeter of the cendi
tien of the Stifle's tinnnees.
As wns 'minted out In mv article
of Saturday It should lie understood thnt
the genernl expenditures, of the Stat"
arc limited te the cash in this depart
ment of tlie Trensiiry.
One week the Treasury mnv receive
$.-.00,000. Within five dnys nil of this
may be disbursed, leaving the Treasury
practically empty, or with only n few
theusnnds of dollars
Tlie condition of the Stnte Treasury
cannot therefore be judged by the
amount of cnsli en hnnd it any pnr
tieular time. The Stnte's money In the
general fund is "fluid." It is censtantlly
coming in mid celnc out.
When, however, tlie balance of mh
is nlwnys low ns it has been for months,
is pnld out as fast ns it is received nnil
then there is net enough te go around, It
it an indication thnt the Stnte Treas
urer is hustling te pay the Common -wenlth's
bills.
Like .Man Who Lives l'p te Income
It is like n man who lives up te his
Income. Who spends ns fast ns he enrn
nnd lins no money te put in bnnk.
Whose nose is constantly te the grind
stone. Thnt s the condition the Stnte's
tinnnees hnve been in for a jiear new.
Rut with this difference: the Ktnte hns
been contracting bills en the basis thnt
its lluctiintlng income will ultimntely
be ndequnte te settle all obligations.
Times have been liurd. business has
been bad, nnd it is npparent. unless
tlieie is n grent chnnge, thnt there will
net be enough money by millions te
settle nil Indebtedness.
In ether words, there will be some
big .deficiency bills te meet when tlie
next IiCgislntmc meets.
New ns te these jlelielencies''
Public scherls, ehurltles nnd penal In
stitutions, insane asylums unci tlie wards
of tlie State generally must be pro
vided for, even if tlie Legislature does
net appropriate enough money for the
purpose. Ur, worse still. If tlieie isn't
enough money coining into the tieasury
te meet tlie nppropilutlens.
Public schools cannot close their
doers; the Insane nnd criminal cannot
be turned out into tlie world nnil tl.e
State government cannot cease te func
tion. Se when there Isn't mnnei eiinui-'i
i in tlie treasury te pay the bills the in
' stitutiens. through their trustees or the
j Re.uds of IMuiatien, nave te borrow
money from tlie banks at ger,d rates of
Interest te keep tlilnss moving till the
atntc does supply tlie money.
Thnt is where the deficiency bill evil
comes in. That is why the Legislature
Is called upon te make up large sums
every 'etien for tlie deficiencies: of the
previous two years, or one year, as the
c.isc may be.
Iewis Started New System
When the present Auditor (leneraf.
S. Lewis took office in May last
he Inaugurated a new hjstem. lie en-
aged a linn of certified public account
ants te examine into the allnlrs nnd
condition of ihc office.
Tiie Auditor (tcnernl, like tlie State
Treasurer, is elected by the people.
They are a part of the Administration
only se far ns their political affilia
tions co. f
Tlie duties of the Auditor Cicnernl aici
"generally te examine and settle all ac
counts between the IVinnienwcnlth and
uny person, officer, department, asso
ciation or corporation. ' Alse, he ex
amines the condition of tlie State Titns
ury annunlly .
Tills auditing concern was engaged
for months in the work. Within the
last five weeks it made Its report. It
is fiem tills report, nnd the figures con
tallied therein, that the accompanying
f u,tk n.-n t.nue.1.
1 hnve said thnt tlie Stnte's cah lias
been running low for the Inst yenr or
se. One, of the best indications of tills,
apart from nil else, Is that the ummt
of intiiest paid en Stnte money by the
various hanks wherein it is deposited
lias fallen away te almost nothing.
If there.were plenty of money, as In
the past, the interest account would
be n large Item en the income side. Tt
shows thnt tlie State is short of cash.
It's paying It out hand ever list se fast
that it hasn't any te deposit in bank
nnd draw big interest.
This, refers te tlie general fund, tlie
big checking nceeunt. The "cnrmiuked"
funds, set nsldc for specinl purposes bv
the I.ecislature. are another thing.
During the fiscal year from December
J. 11)1(1. te Xeveinher J10. 1017. the
State Treasurer collected sPJU.SOO.Im
from banks for interest en genernl fund
flfnncittf.
In the ensuing year of 1117-P the
State Treasurer gathered in SI 21, 400.71 k
in Interest.
The following year from December 1,
1018, te Xevemher JI0, 1010, wns the
banner benrer for Interest. It amounted
te MB7..M8.70.
The next year, from December 1,
1010. te Xevemher .10, 1020, only Sl)S.
0(14. (IS was garnered from the State's
bankers.
-Frem December 1, 1020, te May .11,
1021, the first half of the present fibcal
year, only J?15,024..":i was collected.
This means. If tlie same ratio for the
xenr is maintained, thnt the Statu has
been unable te keep anything like the
money in bank it did in past years.

nnd sufficient reason for this condition
of the Stnte's fiscal affairs. 'I lie war
years were years when great demands
were made upon Its llnnnecs.
Tlie cost "for maintenance of schools
nnd State institutions ran far ahead of
the amounts appropriated, ueiicicncy
bills were inevitable. They ran into
millions. ... . ,
Tlie last I.eglslatuie iind te provide
for these. Mere than that, the expand
ing business of the State is yearly in-ri-pnslns
In its cost of operation.
(Jeed reads must be maintained, nnd
hence the money derived irem meter
uunu insiiMiil of eeinz into the gen
ernl fund, had te be diverted te the
Highway Department. Three ipmrters
of n mi'llien automobile owners are m-teil-sted'
in mnlntnining the piesent ex
cellent rend system.
Pennsyivnnin stnnds far down tlie list
of Stntes in education. J lie system nan
te be reorganized. This is net a matter
of mouths, but of years. This requires
menev. nnd Pennsylvania pnvs less for
educating its children thnn New erk
nnd ether big Stntes.
All these were cited as leasens for
inerensed appropriations. And it is net
probable thnt much reduction will be
possible, if nnv. in the cumins years.
A scorch for new subjects of taxa
tion is Inevitable
The gasoline tax, the tax en coal nnd
the increase in the collateral inheritance
tax. nre expected te incrense tlie Stnte's
icvenucs by nt least JP-'.OOO.tHHl. .
Afni,nfiictnriti! corporations will
prehnbly be the next subjeit available
for taxation.
They would have passed umlur the
red at thelnst session of the Legis
lature hud it net been for tlie strenuous
obiectiens of these interested. It will
add millions te the revenues of the
Commonwealth.
Iast Half of Year Rest
Judging by the experts' figuirs for
the first half of the present fiscal year
there will b" n falling eiT in certain
revenues. This peiied. however, is net
a fair criterion. Tlie last half of a
lineal year always shows up better in
returns than the first half.
There will be no litigation, as was
threatened, ever the gasoline tux. It is
different with the coal tax.
Ceal operators ate lighting the Im
position of this tax just as they did the
coal fax of 11115. They wen out in that
contention. It will be curried te the
Supreme Court for a final decision, no
mntter what the finding of the Dauphin
County Court may be.
The figures for the fiscal year which
ends en Wednesday of this week vvill be
n fair indicntien of what may be, hoped
for the ensuing year in tlie fiscal affairs
of tlie State.
