To avert a deficit in 1934, the president told congress, it would be necessary to impose a general manufacturers' sales tax of 2U per cent; cut government salaries 11 per cent more than now; slash compensation and pensions to vet- erans, and retain the gasoline tax of one cent a gallon. The present fiscal year, he said, will end with a deficit now esti- mated at more than 1.140r000,-00- 0. The only way he could see to balance next year's budget, after the departments had completed cuts netting f397,553,000 of sav- ings, was to enact legislation to save $132,000,000 more, and to raise $492,000,000 additional rev- enue.

BUDGET PROPOSAL

WASHINGTON'. Dec. 7. (AP)Slashed a half billion and more

below this year's appropriations,but depending upon taxes andeconomies which congress hasfirmly refused to impose, the fi-

nal budget to be drawn up by theHoover administration was sub-mitted to the lawmakers today.

To avert a deficit in 1934, thepresident told congress, it wouldbe necessary to impose a generalmanufacturers' sales tax of 2Uper cent; cut government salaries11 per cent more than now; slashcompensation and pensions to vet-erans, and retain the gasoline taxof one cent a gallon.

The present fiscal year, he said,will end with a deficit now esti-mated at more than 1.140r000,-00- 0.

The only way he could see tobalance next year's budget, afterthe departments had completedcuts netting f397,553,000 of sav-ings, was to enact legislation tosave $132,000,000 more, and toraise $492,000,000 additional rev-enue.
