By Thursday the government had collected 4.151 billion and spent 8.939 billion, creating a favorable margin of 212.52 million. A 1931 deficit is anticipated due to 4.5 billion in proposed appropriations, though a budget surplus has persisted since the system began. Foreign debtor payments of 100 million in cash and pre-Hawley Smoot customs receipts boosted the total.

Invention Lets Deaf Hear Via Teeth at Cornell
At Cornell University Dr. Frederick Bedell demonstrated a bone conduction device that transmits sound through teeth to the auditory nerves. The improvised receivers use a metal disc and wood straws placed on the teeth, allowing listeners to hear phonograph music without ear drums. Bedell hopes the device aids the deaf in listening to talkies and radio, noting two thirds of the deaf could benefit.
