tion and regulations of armaments under safeguarded inspection guarantees.” ' ; ‘ The whole 1958 budget stacked up against 1957’s like this (In billions); 1958 1967 Receipts 878. S «TO.« Expenditures .. H.B 88.9 Surplus tt.S 81.7 While proposing record-apending. Mr. Elsenhower emphasized the importance of government, business and labor doing their utmost to curb inflation. Government can do its part by practicing all poeriMe economies and deferring a tox cut. he said. For this reason, he said, he recommended against some “desirable construction projects.” Bmm Tax Belef While taxes “must be retained at the present rated,” he said, Congress should consider some tax relief for small business “with a minimum loss” of federal revenue. Decreases in tobacco, liquor, auto and corporation taxes scheduled for April 1, he said, must be postponed for another year. Stating that his revenue estimates were based on continued prosperity, Mr. Eisenhower said “the prospect for continued economic growth is bright” The current prosperity was reflected in an increase of $825 million in 1957 revenue over the August estimate. It resulted mainly from increased receipts from the personal income tax. Mr. Eisenhower's budget message Included a number of legislative recommendations. It proposed that the interest rate on veterans' home loans be increased from to 5 per cent in an effort to induce Investors to make more money available for such loans. ' ; It asked Congress to approve a natural gas bill similar to the one Mr. Eisenhower vetoed last year because of what be called “ar~' gant" lobbying for ft. The bffl would ease federal regulation ux gas producers. Extend Minimum Wages The President also recommended statehood for Alaska and Hawaii, additional federal judges, a new corn'acreage program, authority to barter of farm surpluses to Iron Curtain countries, easier

credit for small business, and lowering of the voting age. In the labor field, he urged extension of unemployment insurance and minimum wages to more workers. “Legislation should be enacted to require the registration of employ* pension and welfare funds to protect the interests of beneficiaries,” he said. Mr. Eisenhower again asked for congressional approval, of U.S. membership in the proposed inters national organization for trade cooperation. Congress refused such a request last year. For the first time, highway funds were to j be handled outside the regular budget. If they had been included, spending would have been $1.7 billion higher and receipts 82.1 billion more. May Ge BOgher In approving a 827 billion superhighway program last year. Congress set up a special trust fund similar to that for social security. All trust funds are included in the so-called "cash budget” This accounts for all federal receipts from and payments to the publictrust fund or regular budget. The 1958 estimates here showed: Receipts $85.9 billion; payments $82.9 billion and surplus 83 billion. This surplus, considered the best yardstick of the anti-inflationary effect of government fiscal activities, compared with 83.5 billion in 1957 and $4.5 billion in 1956. Mr. Eisenhower indicated the spending budget in fiscal 1959 may go even higher. He asked for a $2.8 billion increase in obligations! authority. If Congress approves, the way will be cleared for increased spending next year. The administration's “tight money” policy boomeranged as to the public debt. Although the debt is being reduced, interest payment will increase by SIOO million to about $7.4 billion. The average rate of Interest the Treasury has had to pay has risen from about 2.5 ,o 2.7 per 'cent in the past year.

Arthur Toscanini Dies Early Today Renowned Musical Genius Dies Today NEW YORK <UP> — Maestro Arturo Toscanini, world renowned symphony and opera conductor, died early today at the age of 89. He suffered a stroke while asleep. The beloved Italian-born musical genius died at his Riverdale home in the Bronx. His health had declined steadily since his retirement from the podium in 1954 and-he was reported nearly blind. Toscanini suffered a stroke on New Year's Day, but had recovered enough to get about his house. A spokesman said he was found dead in bed at 8:40 a.m. Friends said he had been so ill that he was not told of the death of his protege, young Italian conductor Guido Cantelli, in an air crash in Europe shortly before Thanksgiving. Toscanini conducted his last opera, “Falstaff,” at La Scala of Milan in 1954, ending a 68-year career that began when he conducted “Aida” at the age of 19 in Rio de Janeiro. He last wielded his baton in New York at a broadcast concert of the NBC Symphony Orchestra April 4, 1954. Toscanini returned to the United States for the last time in March, 1955, and had not left the country since. He spent much of his time since giving critical advice on recordings and re-recordings of his symphonic and operatic albums. He devoted several hours a day to work almost to the day of his death. Toscanini was the last survivor of the "Golden Age” conductors, a man who had known as an equal most of the towering musical figures of the 19th and 20th centuries His memory was phenomenal and he kept the scores of more than 100 operas and many scores of symphonies in his head. Toscanini, whose wife died in 1951, was particularly devoted to his family and had enjoyed a reunion with them at his home here during the Christmas holidays. He

is survived by a son, Walter, and two daughters, Mrs. Vladimir Horowitz, wife of the violinist, and Countess Wally Castelbarco. Fertilizer Meet Is Scheduled Jan. 23 Purdue Expert To Speak At Meeting R. K. Stivers of the Purdue agronomy extension staff will discuss nitrogen fertilizers on January 23.

Snow Warnings New Threat To Cold Northeast Foresee No Relief From Death Dealing Cold Wave In Nation By UNITED PRESS Heavy snow warnings posed a new threat to the frozen Northeast today in the midst of a rec-ord-shattering cold wave. And weathermen foresaw no relief from the death dealing cold wave as a fresh mass of Arctic air swept across the north central states. A United Press survey showed at least 32 weather-caused fatalities since the. cold wave gripped most of the nation east of the Rockies Monday. There were seven deaths in Inrdiana, six in New York, four in Illinois, three each in Virginia, West Virginia pnd Pennsylvania, two in Michigan, two in New England, and one each in lowa and Mississippi. The Northeast, which had the continent’s coldest weather Tuesday with a record 55 degrees below zero at Boonville, N.Y., was due for heavy snows today. More Snow Coming Weathermen warned the snow will pile up to a depth of 6 to 12 inches in most of New England with the exception of northern Maine and Connecticut. . Snow flurries were predicted to extend as far west as the eastern Ohio Valley and the northern Great Lakes region. At Oswego, N.Y., a gas main break during the area’s worst cold wave in history Tuesday shut off service to some 15,000 homes. About 30,000 persons were left without heat in temperatures as low as 24 degrees below zero. Fires blamed on overheated stoves in the widespread cold air belt continued to take a heavy

toll of lives. At -Saline. Mich., a mother and her children were believed dead in a residential blaze, and a father and two children were killed in a fire at Jeffersonville, Ind. Fire Hite Dormitory A fire broke out in a dormitory housing 140 women at the Dixon, Dl„ state school, but luckily the women were in a dining hall and no injuries were reported. Fifteen patients fled so safety in 14-de-gree weather when a fire destroyed a nursing home at Clay City, Ind. A raging fire at Syracuse, N.Y., destroyed that city's First Methpdist Church and two other buildings in the downtown district. * At Memphis, industrial * gas service was sharply reduced to conserve fuel for public use as temperatures havered in the 20s most of Tuesday. Residents of Chicago’s north side battled an invasion of field mice seeking a warm haven from the cold. The only haven for humans from the cold wave blanketing the entire area from the Rockies to the Atlantic was Florida where overnight readings got no lower than the 60s and Key West registered a warm 70 degrees. Some record lows Tuesday included 30 below at Burlington, Vt. 10 below at Scranton, Pa., 12 below at Buffalo, N.Y., and 20 below at Albany, N.Y. New York City braced for a predicted 3 to 5-inch snowfall. Other early morning temperatures included Boston 5, Washington 19, St. Louis 6, Chicago 3 below, Milwaukee 5 below, Minneapolis 5’ below, Bismarck, N.D., 14 below, Denver 3, Dallal, Tex., 27, Bozeman, Mont, 28 below, Seattle 31 and Los Angeles 53. Scheduled Music Contest Postponed The annual Adams county music contest, scheduled to be held Thursday at the Decatur library, has been postponed because of weather conditions. Announcement of a new date for the contest will be made later. Trade u> a uooa Town Decatdi

Some Opposition To Alcorn As Chairman Hall's Successor To Be Named Jan. 23 WASHINGTON (UP) \- Some opposition built up today to election of H. Meade Alcorn of Connecticut to the chairmanship of the* Republican National Committee. There was no indication yet, however, that the opposition would be effective. Alcorn, the front-running candidate for the job, was understood to have White House approval. The GOP committee will meet next Tuesday to eleqt a successor to Leonard W. Hall, the retiring chairman. The choice actually will be that of President Eisenhower. A veteran national committeeman, who asked not to be identified, conceded that there is opposition to Alcorn, but said he expected the committee to go along with the election of its Connecticut member to the chairmanship. Another highly placed Republican said a backfire has built up against Alcorn in support of Ray C. Bliss, Ohio State Republican chairman. If Alcorn should be sidetracked, the presumed beneficiary would be BUss or New York GOP Chairman L. Judson Morehouse unless the party turned to a dark horse compromise. Alcorn’s opposition was reported to come partly from some Republicans in his home state and partly from critics who question his qualifications. These critics have questioned whether he has the experience to head the party organization in its uphill fight to recapture control of Congress in the 1958 elections.
