“HOUSE SLICES 4, 801 15 0FF | DEFENSE BILL
Urol Orders. Bind |
Sub-Committee to Observe Budget Limits.
WASHINGTON. Jan. 11 . P)— The House considers today the first appropriation bill of this session — $267,197,908 for national defense— after ‘the sounding of an economy keynote by its Appropriations Committee. The Committee adopted a resolution binding its sub-committees to stay within appropriation limits set by the President's budget and then emphasized its economy demand by slicing $4,801,615 from the National Defense Bill, The instructions to sub-commit-. tees provide that any proposals to ' exceed the budget must be submitted to the full Committee first,
Move Is Unprecedented
The Committee's blanket instruc- 3
_ tions were unprecedented, although such action had been taken before toward single sub-committees. The action was inspired, it was said, by belief that it is easier to keep items out of a bill before a subcommittee has approved them. The House began work on the Defense Bill today under strict admonition of President Roosevelt, delivered to its steering committee yes_terday, to stay within his $8,424,000,000 spending program for 1941, and to do nothing that would make Congress raise the $45,000.000,000 - national debt limit this year. :
Urges Defense Commission
Meanwhile, the House sent to its Rules Committee the resolution sponsored by Senator Pat Harrison (D. Miss.) and passed unanimously by the Senate yesterday for a joint committee of 24 Congressmen and Senators to study the budget. House leaders were determined to shelve it and rush action on pending appropriation bills. In the House, Rep. James E. Van Zandt (R. Pa.) introduced a resolution to set up a special National Defense Commission.

6-MONTH SPENDING NEAR 1-YEAR INTAKE
WASHINGTON, Jan. 11 (U. P.). —The Federal Government has spent: more than five billion dollars in a little over six months, almost as much as its anticipated income for the full fiscal year, Treasury statistics indicated’ today. Spending to date is slightly more than half that forecast for the entire year in the revised budget estimates submitted to Congress earlier this month. Expenditures reached a total of $5,012,026,993 on Jan..9, six months and nine days after the fiscal year began. Revised budget estimates forecast spending at $9,099,253,641 for the 12 months. That represented an increase of $103,590,441 over the original spending estimate for this year submitted to Congress in January, 1939. It was estimated that income for the year would total $5,598.078,436. With a little less than six months remaining of the fiscal year, income to date amounts to $2,850,000,000, a little more than half the amount expected for the full year. The gross deficit as of Jan. 8 was $2,148,766,439 although it was believed now to be in excess of $2,150,000,000.
