Administration Near Billion Mark In Cuts ■ ■ \ i' . ■ . : . ’ • Savings Are Still Far Insufficient To Balance Budget WASHINGTON UP — The Eisenhower administration today neared the i $1,000,000,000 mark in its drive tb cut federal spending enough to justify tax relief. Savings stakpd qut during ths jttrst throe months pf Republican rule still fall far short of balancing ithe budget for the 1954 fiscal year which begins July 1. But reports are not yet tn from the two biggest items in the budget - — defense spending and foreign laid. President Eisenhower has said a ■balanced budget; must be “in sight” before he will approve tax cuts. I "Government departments and agencies that have completed their new Inidgets have trimmed about $960,000,000 from the appropriations requested in the budget submitted by former President Trti man in January. \ ' ! Mr. Truman’s budget message estimated federal upending for the next fiscal year at $78,60<k000,()0h and showed a deficit of $9,1'00,000/ 000. r A breakdown of thei revised budgets submitted by the Eisenhower administration shows these reductions-—in round figures—from the appropriation (requests of the Truman administration: Commerce. $169,000,000.

H i “ Veto Suggestions On Korean Politics i Political Issues May Hamper Truce WASHINGTON UP — The administration has politely but firmly vetoed suggestions by. influential Senate Republicans that Korea’s political future be settled before a truce is signed. Administration sources take the, view that a milijtary armisticealone will be difficult enough ‘o acheve and that injection of political issues into the discussions at;this points might keep the war goSome officials are stil Inot c.onSome ofifcials are still not convinced that the Communists want to end the Korean flighting. They hope they are wrong. But there is, some- suspicion that the Reds are! reviving, the truce talks only .because they fear that the Allies are! getting reedy to mount a military, offensive. At any rate, officials are sure tdiat hard^bargaining is ahfead at Paromuiijpin before any truce is reached. ' . I, The questlon\|of linking political problems to the military armistice talks arose fblowlng President Eisenhower’s address last week that outlined a path for the Communists to end. the cold war. The president challenged the Reds to write an honorable armistice and then move promptly into political discussions leading to free elections in a united Korea. 1 Sen. Robert A. Taft R-0., ani scene other Republican senators I said every effort should be made to obtain guarantees tb.at Korea will be unified as mrt of the truce agreement. They said the Re.ls. may never agree to a fair plan for uniting the eou Kry if the shooting stops with Korea still .divided.

Says Japan Should Build Up Military Urges Reviving Os Japanese Military NEW YORK, UP — Lieutenant General- Robert L. Eichelberger, retired, ,an "elder statesman” of the U. S. ariny, declared firmly today that should bufid up her armed forces to discourage haw Communist aggression in the Far Easf. He also Suggested that tfre U. S. . could "afford” to give : to Japan since it wopld mean a reduction in the cost of maintaining. American forces in that ;; try, \ * t .He saw no danger to other Far Eastern countries from a rearmed Japart. y Eichelberger I expressed these views in written answers to questions submitted by the United [ Press. He lias just returned from j a Mediterranean cruise and Is vesting at his Asheville, N. C.. The foriner commander of the U. s; Sth army in Japan, in commenting on the controversial question of reviving the Japanese military machine, pointed out that the United States is not strong enough itself to guarantee'Japan’s safety. “If the United .Stales allpowerful in a peaceful world, one could for economic reasons, recommend that Japan remain unarimed except for the necessary constabulary and police,!” he said. “As a matter of fact, the United States has commitments over the world—in Europe, the Middle East und the F|ar East. We have tried U build up the strength of our .allies and the strength of the, liberty-loving part of the United Rations. [ “In bur endeavors we have made ieme success, \ but the United States is not powerful enough at the present time to guarantee the absolute safety of Japan from Soviet Russia and her satellites. Japan. with her brave sonp, must furnish the balance of pbwer in her own country which will deter aggression.” Eichelberger said he believed a truce in Korea would lessen the Red menace to Japan. "I believe that a truce in Korea, if the result of art honest desire on the part of the Kermlin to tess•n the cold war, will decrease the threat to Japan.” British May End Butter Rationing 4 u LONIXkN UP — The British gU- - 'Vnment- hopes to e nd butter ratifying soan-but not with American surplus butter whicb is not up to British standards., Officials said they would like to buy some of th6 htige stocks of butter in the United.
