The 1937 budget project shows a regular program needing 5.069 billion dollars to fund interest public works and CCC operations while receipts are forecast at 5.654 billion, leaving a 585 million surplus after debt retirement. Relief funding remains unpriced but expected to be lower than this year.
The text notes that estimates of appropriations include transfer provisions within the same department. This provides administrative flexibility and supports economical program execution, with congressional approval recommended.
The document critiques an amendment to the Agricultural Adjustment Act that would earmark 30 percent of customs receipts for the secretary of agriculture. It argues the direct appropriation limits presidential and congressional budgeting reviews, breaches fiscal laws, and bypasses coordinated income and expense planning. It urges bringing all agencies under the budget director and reviews fiscal year 1935 receipts and 1936 37 projections.
The 1937 budget outlines a substantial decrease in the deficit gap with receipts rising to an estimated 4.56 billion dollars and a gross deficit around 3.23 billion. It projects new taxes under the social security, coal conservation, and carrier taxes, plus a 405 million federal works program and continued civilian conservation and agricultural programs. The report notes debt retirement and interest costs, with total expenditures near 6.75 billion and a projected gross public debt around 31.35 billion by June 30, 1937.
