Mr. Good estimated that the appro
priations "necessary for the various
government expenditures" iri the fls-
P cal year ending June 30, 1921, would
total more than $3,800,000,000.
Strictest economy, he added, would
be necessary to hold expenditures
p down even to this total*
Mr. Good estimated that the ap
propriation made by Congress for
the war period and for the fiscal
year ending June 30, 1920, totalled
more than $47,110,000,000. The rev
enue to meet these appropriations
? he estimated at $16,657,000,000 Jo be
f derived through customs receipts and
income and other taxes and $25,888,-
, 000,000 to be raised from the sale
of bonds, notes and war savings
■ stamps.
5 "The appropriations," Mr. Good
' added, "to supply deficiencies in the
various departments are chargeable
3 against the fiscal year ending June
" 30, 1919, and when deducted from
5| the total of the appropriations above
Bj referred to, it will lie found that
J the total revenue will fall short of
j meeting the appropriations for the
4 fiscal year ending June 30, 1920, by
approximately $3,500,000,000. A part
of this deficit will no doubt be made
j up from war salvage receipts and the
>' balance must be met by the sale of
I bonds."

AGUIRRE DENIES
JAP INTERVIEW
Did Not Confirm Report of j
Land Purchase in Lower
California
Mexico City, April 4.—The news
paper Excelsior, which on March 29
published a regarding Japa
nese concessions in Mexico, yesterday
published the following statement, em
bodying a denial by General Amado
Agulrre, sub-secretary of agriculture
and development on these alleged con
cessions :
, " 'The geographical configuration of
| Lower California, together with article
j27 of the constitution, prohibits abso
lutely any acquisition of any extension
of land by any foreign corporations."
"This was the official statement prer
sented by General Amado Agulrre yes
terday regarding the present discussions
in the press on the acquisition of lands
i in Lower California by the Japanese.
He declared false the interview at
tributed to him on March 29, in which
it was said he confirmed declarations
fliat the Japanese had acquired conces
sions In Lower California.
"Regarding the possibility of ob
taining lands along the coast, the sub
secretary declared that In a zone 100
kilometers wide from the American
frontier, and 50 kilometers wide from
each coast, it was impossible for for
eign corporations to obtain territorial
properties, for artjele 27 of the consti
tution prohibits foreigners from hold
ing lands in the zones mentioned.
"General Agulrre laughed at the pos
sibility that the Japanese would ob
tain a naval base. ,He asserted that
I rights for fishing ana the exploitation
of other natural resources in the penin
sula had been granted only for five
years and were not exclusive.
"When asked by G. T. Summerlin,
charge of the American embassy, rel
ative to the reports that the Japanese
had obtnined concessions, the sub-sec
retary replied in the negative. He
stated also that the Mexican govern
ment had acted. In conformity with the
existing laws, to nullify certain foreign,
concessions, with the object of divid
ing large properties among the peo
ple. The Department of Agriculture
and Development had recently an
nounced that persons desiring to obtain
small parcels of land in Lower Cali
fornia could secure them by complying
with the regulations set forth by the
department."

proposal to purchase the British
owned tonnage of the International
Mercantile Marine.

the property as we may consider
desirable."
The tonnage involved in the pro
posal, now abandoned, included such
ships as the Baltic and the Olympic.
They were to be sold to a British

vessels upon the terms of the Brit

renew the negotiations with the Brit
ish syndicate or to retain the owner
