BUDGET LEADER PEDALS HIS RED BIKE TO OFFICE Holds Tough Task of Balancing U. S. Finances. BY FREDERICK C. OTHMAN United Pri tilaff Correspondent WASHINGTON, June 30.—Lewis Williams Douglas, who pedals down to the treasury department nearly every morning on a red bicycle, has the thankless task of trying to balance the budget of the United Slates.

He thinks he will be able to strike some sort of a balance; when the Presi- j dent comes back from his vacation, and he re-j grets the fact that he made enemies all over town through the billion dollar governmental economies he supervises. Budget Director Douglas

Douglas argued, passed cigars, and obtained permission to keep his wheel in the guard room, where all the guards eye it disdainfully. The director works with his coat off and his sleeves rolled up. Pers- | piration rolls down his brow and causes him to loosen his collar. It is not the heat, he says, but the humidity. In Arizona he claims that the air is so dry that the heat doesn’t matter. Cost Slicing Hard Task His biggest job has been that of cutting expenses. He has lowered appropriations on all hands, suggested the elimination of certain bureaus and urged the abandonment of governmental luxuries. He believes that if bureaucracy will tighten its belt and that if citizens generally will pay their added
