WASHINGTON— () —A mid

A continuation of the trends

of any party in history.
Democrats had won 17 state seats
and were leading in the battle of
the ballots of 11 wore. Shouid
they add those 11 also to the 4%
holding over from the last con
gress, they would have 75 seats—
-49 is a majority—and a represen
tation sufficient to insure Mr.
Roosevelt a democratic senate dur
ing his entire second term.
With only 137 ymces still in
doubt, Republicans had lost 15
members and ousted only 7 demo
crats.

A Roosevelt landslide that

finally turned into the victorous
columns of Roosevelt in the morns

All the other states already had
given the Democratic presidential
ticket shouting majorities in the
¢lectoral college, sent new recruits
to the previously top-heavy list of
dempocratic senate and house mem
bers. The apparent electoral vfifiw
stood at 523 for Roosevelt, 8 for
Landon. e
The final thinning of the repubs

smallest electoral vote the party
has had since the Taft debacle-im
1912.. Taft had just 8 votes, 88
gone to the Bull Moosers of Theo

Administration
et o
WASHINGTON—(@)—A multitude =
of important financial gquestions,
ranging from budget balancing }§
and taxes to monetary problems, =
face the new Roosevelt adminis
tration, ,?;?
In the foreground of the govern- :%
ment fiscal picture is the 1937-38 :%fi
budget, and the question of wheth- 5
er the gap hetween income and =
outgo of recent years will be ma- =
terially narrowed or eliminated. o
With a $922,011,000 deficit thus
far this fiscal year, the public =
debt now stands at $33,839,060,000.
President Roosevelt has forecasta ffi
gross defict of $2,096,996,000 for é
the current fiscal period, with the =
public debt showing a net in- %
increase to $34,188,543,000 by next §
June 30. \ i
Looming large as a deficit-de- =
termining factor are the govern- é;f;
ment's emergency expenditures.
which, so far this fiseal year, are
about $250,000,000 under those of
a year ago. e
On the other side of the ledges,
government revenues are increas
ing, and Secretary Morgenthas
predicted ~recently that income
from the present tax structure
would make possible *“an early
balancing of the budgetand -there
after a rapid reduction in the pub«
lic debt.” o ih
The tax question will arise in
the next congress, however, even
should no new levies be proposeds
Numerous excise taxes, which =
vielded $300,000,000 during thesis- f‘
cal year, are scheduled to expire
by July, 1937, and congress will
have to decide whether to continue
them. The list includes levies om
gasoline, radio sets, ~
refrigerators, firéarms and aute
mobiles and parts. o s bant
Social security, labor legis %g
and new aids for the nat ng
farmers stood out today among
