Mr, Truman budgeted the collection of more than $373,000,000,000 in taxes and the spending of roughly $400,000,000,000. Franklin D. Roosevelt was not even a good second. Most of World War II spending is charged to FfDR but he laid out only $375,000,000,000 of the people’s money in 12 White Hoilse years. His tax take was a mere $162,500,000,000 although it seemed to be quite a package when it was being extracted from the public’s pockets. ' ' The books closed on FDR and HST at midnight June 30 when sis cal, 1963 ended.

The national debt had soared to $226,071,000,000. The eye-popping figure among those released by the treasury was the 12-month tax take in fiscal 1955. The taxpayers contributed $65,218,000,000 which is the greatest sum ever extracted by the government from th« people in any previous year, peace or war.
