GOP Assumes Job Of Budget Balancing By HENRIETTA AND NELSON POYNTER The law book says the president must give Congress a budget message come January. I And 1947 will see the revival of a fashion called tie balanced style of budget. But President Truman will not get credit for the trend. The Republicans intend to balance the budget and get credit for it come hell, or even relatively high taxes: A thoughtful citizen may find it convenient to jot down several figures before- he reads the president's budget message about Jan- 6 and the political comment which will follow. .' - The U. S. government owes $256 billion requiring $5 billion of interest each year. The most optimistic Republicans .estimate that we will spend from $29 to $32 billions in the fiscal year ending June 30, 1948, and Senator Taft of Ohio one of the best informed congressmen on government finance estimates that we will be spending $25 billion in 1949. To give a little perspective, it's been just 30 years since the government first spent a whole billion in 12 months- The last fiscal year before World War II started in Europe found the Roosevelt administration collecting only $5.2 billion and spending $8.7 billion, and doing a lot of explaining over its

3.5 billion deficit. But those were the days when the government debt stood at only $40 billion, and the automobile salesman begged you to buy a new car.

ine wnoie American economy is geared to the new high figures which add up to the fact that we cannot afford a recession, depression, or whatyoucallit without risking collapse or revolution. The national income must remain high to support the goose that lays those golden eggs for the treasury. Last year's national income was $162 billion and yielded $40.7 billion in U- S. taxes which was about equivalent to the national income in 1933. A rational income of about $70 billion in 1939 yielded $5.2 bill-on-in U. S.. taxes. The treasury department estimates that Uncle Sam loses 28

cents every time the national income drops $1. Putting it another way, more than $100 billion of national income is required -to produce $25 billion -of taxes at present tax rates. . ' Jun ft fl"i 17 rtrw 1 Kl I irt v a nlA A zy 'm t ri n A 4- vnAitnn innitis 4-

A breakdown of government expenditures shows that the only large economies must come out of the national defence. Interest on debt, and other fixed charges add up to over $7 billion. Veterans will cost $10 billion next year and as high as $6 billion thereafter. Even the most economy minded administration will not go far in reducing agricultuial aid?,; and the social security expenditures have become a part of our pattern of life. This finally leaves national de

fense as the only major item that can be whittled. This in J .-. 4 fl .1 1., ... 1 tl .1J" . J 1 t mi

huh is iiuiueuceu largely uy our relations wren nussia. inus Premier Stalin and Foreign Minister iUolotov, and Secretary of State Byrnes, and the United Nations can affect our budget by more billions than all the domestic costs of federal op"erations combined. There's a lot cf oratorical nonsense by such men as John Taber (New York Republican) about knocking a million bureaucrats off the pay roll. By the end of this fiscal year there will be only about 600,000 federal employes outside the War, .-Navy, Postoffice and Veterans Administration- Since Taber is chairman of the House appropriations committee his words .'disturb those people who do not want to do away with a fed" -eral government altogether. ' , ' But as a whole Congress will be more sober in its ap--proach to budget problems this year than in the past. For "the first time it will have a 'legislative budget." In the past -it has worked from an "administrative budget," consisting ;of requests from the administrative branches of the govern--ment. The legislative budget is an attempt to fix more responsibility on Congress and relate revenue to expenditures -and thus abandon the cowardly tradition of "never voting against an appropriation, and never voting for any taxes." .The new Congress will have' a joint committee to report the -legislative budget by Feb. 15. When the figures don't ballance in the future the Congress must provide for any necessary -increase in the' public debt. Congress, not the president, will bear the blame for debt- Actually this has been true in the past, though it was less evident. Only Congress "can balance or unbalance a budget. And that is why the new -Republican Congress will tske credit for the balanced budgets that are on the horizon. -- It's a healthy trend in self government because it fixes "more- responsibility on congressmen and the voters who elect them.

Editor, Sullivan Daily Times Sullivan, Indiana. Dear Mr,- Editor: I, as a miner, was much impressed by Mr. John L. Lewis'

denunciation of the use of ths -o-called "Yellow Dog" injunction used against him in breaking up the called strike of the miners, the second in less than seven months. He also bedammod. the judge who issued thct injunction, Judge Goldsborough. But only two years ago, Judgs Goldsborough was proclaimed by Mr. Lewis to be one of, if not the greatest, jurists of all time, when he (Goldsborough) granted Lewis an injunction to keep Ray Edmonson, Lewis' rival, off the National U.M.W. ballot in the last election. Doe;; Mr. Lewis, think the injunction was created solely for him to see? "A Miner", John Gaines.
