DEBT RETIREMENT
IN PROSPECT 1927
DECLARES LORD
APPARENT SURPLUS FOR THIS
FISCAL YEAR PLACED AT
$383,079,095
WASHINGTON, Feb. 7.(/P)—Public
debt retirement of $1,000,000,000 this
fiscal year is in prospect, Director
Lord of the Budget Bureau informed
the semi-annual business meeting of
the government.
General Lord reiterated that the ap
parent surplus for this fiscal year was
$383,079,095 while the margin for next
year appeared to be $200,703,863. He
did not discuss tax reduction.
I Relating the results of the Budget,
the director said that if the six bud
. gets so far submitted to Congress the
estimates totaled $22,741,682,205 which
was $1,492,458,996 less than was asked
by the executive departments.
“In that billion and a half overes
time,” he said, “are buried proposals
that never should have been serious
ly considered. Generous contribu
tions to that vast total were made by
executives newly identified with the
' government service.”
General Lord reported progress in
the Two Percent Personnel Club,
made up of bureau chiefs, who effect
a reduction of two per cent in the
number of their employes during the
year.
The Budget chief urged government
heads to cut down on their corre
spondence as a means of saving.
There is too much dictation and too
much typewriting, he argued.
“Stenographers and typewriters,”
he said, “are alluring temptations to
verbosity, loquacity, garrulity and
prolixity. Those who can’t write out
their messages in longhand and make
it readable can dictate to an intelli
gent stenographer who can make a
fairly presentable production out of a
jumble of bad grammar and a halt
ing vocabulary, and thus make pos
sible correspondence that otherwise
would never have troubled the mails
; and otherwise would not have been
missed.”
