Ike Spending Makes Truman And FDR Pikers Record Spending By 'Eisenhower Breaks 6 All Previous Marks ’■ v . WASHINGTON (UP)—President Franklin D. Roosevelt was what the Broadway crowd would call a fast man with a buck. That beans he was a big spender. FDR’s fat peacetime spending programs of $7 or $8 billion and thereabouts in a single year panicked the financial community. President Harry S. Truman came along after that and set new spending records. And. now. President Eisenhower is spending at a peacetime rate which makes FDR and HST look like pikers. On the basis of estimates for the current fiscal year, the Eisenhower administration will have a four-year spending total of $267.9 billion. That is for Mr. Eisenhower’s first tferm. He has begun his second with budget estimates for continued big spending; fn fact, record peacetime spending. FDR served three full terms and spent in each of them, respectively, $29 billion, $37 billion and $306 billion. Mr. Roosevelt’s $306 billion tops Mr. Eisenhower’s first term expenditure, but FDR's spending was largely for World War 11. Mr. Roosevelt was in,the red every year during his presidency. HST Also Had Deficits »Mr. Truman spent $172 billion in the four-year term he inherited on FDR’s death in April, 1945. HST was in the red more often than not. World War II spending was being tapered off then, but not much. Mr. Truman won a presidential term in his own right in the 1948 elections and he loosened the purse strings thereupon. In HST’s second term, government cost $223 billion, plus a considerable accumulation of deficit spending which must be paid sometime by somebody. If Mr. Eisenhower’s spending record is shadowed a bit by FDR's World War II spending, the present administration has a clear spending lead over Mr. Truman. While he was spending that $267.9 billion, Mr. Eisenhower was a busy tax collector. Come next June 30, which is the end of the current fiscal year, and Mr. Eisenhower will have collected approximately $263 billion, an enormous sum of money which is not much-*under•the>‘tax*''4aha''4>f all three Roosevelt administrations put together. The 12-year Roosevelt take was more than S3OO billion. Mr. Truman collected taxes with a heavier hand. His eightyear take was more than $395 billion. Mr. Eisenhower will run his tax take up to about $526 billion in eight years unless he reduces government costs sufficiently to make tax reductions feasible. Complaints From Humphrey Secretary, of treasury George M. Humphrey is beginning to grumble where he can be overheard that taxes and government costs must be reduced — or else. The or else, Humphrey believes, would be a devastating depression. Mr. Eisenhower has a- quick ear for the advice of his secret tary of treasury, so maybe tax cuts are coming sometime, but not soon. The spending figures put Mr. Eisenhower right up there with the New Dealers and Fair Dealers as a spender of other peoples’ money. There is, however, aTdifference. Mr. Eisenhower is no New Dealer on government deficits. He does not like to spend borrowed money and he has put considerable effort into balancing the federal budget. It is balanced now. Mr. Eisenhower has learned the hard way what others had to learn before him: That cutting government expenses is next to impossible. Few but the old timers around town will recall that Franklin D. Roosevelt made government economy a big issue in his first presidential campaign. He was going to reduce government expenses by 25 per cent, but he never was able to make good on that. He decided, instead, to spend the country out of depression. That did not work, either. Claims tn be allowed ttiy the Ixiard of Commissioners on Monday, January 21, 1-957. — HIGHWAV „ Liwrewe Noll.

Stalin Upheld As Model For Communism Communist Leader Warns West Nations Capitalism Doomed MOSCOW (UP) — Communist Party leader Nikita S. Khrushchev called on Communists throughout the world Thursday night to follow the example of Josef Stalin in the party’s ’‘essential" matters. “God grant that every Communist be able to fight like Stalin,” Khrushchev said, touching off a wave of cheers and applause among more than 1,200 guests and Communist elite at a gala reception for visiting Red China Premier Chou En-lai. Khrushchev’s inspired speech followed numerous exchanges of toasts between the Chinese delegation and the Russians. They drank glass after glass of a powerful Chinese drink called mouhai, dfeiribed as The drink closely resembles Kentucky moonshine—in taste and effect. At one point, Soviet Premier Nikolai Bulganin, standing at Khrushchev’s side, whispered, “Enough, enough!” But Khrushchev shrugged him off with, “No, not enough ye.t!” The Communist leader warned the Western world that capitalism is headed for extinction—a statement he also made last November at a Moscow reception for Polish Communist leader Wladyslaw Gomulka. Western diplomats walked out on Khrushchev that time. Waving his fist in the air to emphasize his point, Khrushchev declared: “I do not separate Stalinism from; Communism- But I consider that, as a Communist fighting for the working class, Stalin was a model Communist.” The a'udierice burst into applause and Chou joined in as soon as the remarks were translated into Chinese. “If my friend Bulganin had not provoked rite. I probably would not have mentioned this," he continued. "We have criticized Stalin. We criticize him now, and if necessary we will continue to do so, (but) not because we regard him as a bad Communist as far as the interests of the working class are concerned. We criticize him because he had defects which Lenin saw and pointed out before we noticed them and they came true. “We also see them and we admit that these defects were badButin the essential—and the essential is the class interests—God grant that every Communist be able to fight like Stalin, and to defend these class interests!" Eisenhower To Use Bible From Mother Public Inauguration Ceremonies Monday WASHINGTON (IB — President Eisenhower will use the Bible his mother gave him on his graduation from West Point when he publicly takes the oath of office on Monday. He directed that it be opened at the 12th verse of the 33rd Psalm: "Blessed is the nation whose God is the Lord; and the people whom he hath chosen for his inheritance.” “ ■ .... ' . ' .

Hagerty said today Mr. Eisenhower personally selected the verse on which his left hand wiH rest -as he takes the oath on inauguration day.- The President will take the official oath in a private ceremony at the White House on Sunday. •
