Roosevelt to Submit Costs

Estimates to Congress Next Monday.

‘WASHINGTON, Jan. 9 (U. P.).—

President Roosevelt is expected to] submit to congress Monday a war f budget of at least $100,000,000,000— | i

only $42,000,000,000 short of the record-breaking expenditures of the 10 years since he took office. Democrats and Republicans alike called for a close check of requested

| expenditures for the second - war

year and Rep. Usher L. Burdick (R. N. D.) introduced a bill to restore to congress all purse-string controls in the government. Since entering office in 1933, treasury figures show, the administration has directed the spending of $142,209,000,000. Government receipts during that time totaled approximately $61,602,000,000, increasing the public debt by -some $90,000,000,000.

Recovery Plans Costly The deficit results largely from the government's efforts to speed recovery through expenditures for relief during the early years of the eavy national defense and war costs. Relief cost abou $18, 160,000,000 while national

defense and war costs approximate $65,400,000,000. From March, 1933, until June 30 of that year, the government spent $4,325,000,000 while its receipts were $829,500,000. In the first full fiscal year ending June 30, 1934, expenditures reached $6,371,000,000 with receipts half that sum. Spending jumped to $7,583,000,000 in 1935 and swung between $8,000,000,000 and $9,000,000,000 until 1941 when defense took them to $12,775,000,000. By the last fiscal year spending for all purposes had amounted to $32,491,000,000% for this fiscal year it already is $36,118,000,-

URGES U. S. AIR RULE OF GLOBE

Transport Line Chief Says Countless Planes Would Bring Security.

SAN FRANCISCO, Jan. 9 (U. P.). —Jack Frye, president of Transcontinental & Western = Airlines,

proposed today that the United States immediately launch a pro-

lions of airplanes ranging in size to world-circling giants carrying 2000 tons. Such an air fleet, Mr. Frye told the San Francisco Press club, would guarantee the nation permanent secruity because no nation of group of nations would dare attack. He urged encouragement of private flying so ‘that America -would be prepared to man the fleet when completed. He said the program could be realized within 15 to 25 years after the war, if begun now.

Stresses Offensive Power

The proposed fleet would consist of: 1. A compact, hard-hitting, svecialized military aviation branch equipped to utilize the most advanced offensive means that cah be developed. ’ 2. A fleet of several hundred thousand transport planes ranging in size from feeder line planes carrying useful loads of perhaps five to

carrying possibly 2000 tons.

vately owned and operated aircraft which would be capable of immediate conversion to what is now calle infantry.

Security Is Good

Mr. Frye said the program first would provide permanent security and also an economic cushion to absorb millions of Americans dislocated by the war. He said the fleet should be closely correlated with military needs for conversion, if necessary, to military craft. “The next big war after 1950, if there is one, will be won by a knockout blow from the air that will effect a decision within a very short time,” Mr, Frye said.
