Hoover Budget Nears Four Billion For Year
Hoover's first budget proposes expenditures of 3.83 billion for the next fiscal year, about 211 million below Congress' disbursement for the current period and 158 million above the Coolidge plan.

The air program is slated to run through 1931 with a hoped full year, and figures are to be published within a week.
