Budget Estimate for 1926 Expenditures Revealed in Treasury Release
Washington sources report President Coolidge will review a 1926 draft totaling about 3.26 billion dollars. Ordinary expenses near 1.8 billion, interest on the public debt around 534 million, and debt retirement about 450 million. Postal service payments from post receipts estimated 666 to 700 million, pushing total government operations to near four billion. Budget Director Lord notes increases in ordinary spending and a large but offsetting debt reduction. World War adjusted compensation adds about 150 million. Budget limits and revenue projections hinge on Congress tax actions and Treasury receipts around 3.695 billion for 1926, with war and navy appropriations remaining stable.
