Fearful Deficit Looms Over Treasury as Expenditures Grow
Washington reports indicate Congress has authorized funds for next year that exceed this year's appropriations by about 8.01 million dollars, marking a first overrun beyond the Budget Bureau limit in several years and signaling potential trouble for President Coolidge's financial position.
