But the really interesting part of the story, as pointed '1'

The rest of the "savings" are paper transactions representing no actual cut in outlays at all. - ; For example, the Republican leaders claim to have "saved" $800 million in tax refunds. That is, they estimate the Treasury will have to pay out $800 million less for this purpose than Mr. Truman estimated. But the Treasury's liability, for tax refunds is not controlled by anybody's . estimates. If taxpayers have legitimate claims, they will be en-

Another, "saving" is accounted for by the House decision not to cancel $642 million in Commodity Credit Corp. notes held by the Treasury.
