counts budget. Like the cash budget, the NIA budget includes the trust funds. But it excludes loans and other purely financial transactions. Economists say the NIA budget does the best job of showing how federal government operations affect the economy. In fiscal 1968, the National Income Accounts budget provides for expenditures of $196.2 billion and receipts of $167.1 billion. It also envisions the smallest deficit of all-$2.1 billion. The NIA budget this year includes expenditures of $153.6 billion, receipts of $149.8 billion and a deficit of $3.8 billion. The additional $6 billion Johnson wants to expand civilion programs includes $1.9 billion for health, education, welfare, poverty, housing and other Great Society programs. This would be on top of $4.2 billion in additional Social Security and Medicare benefits for elderly Americans. The rate of increase for Great Society programs was down sharply, however, from the $4.8 billion expected in the current fiscal year. Johnson said his budget contained a total of $25.6 billion to help the 31 million Americans living in poverty, including $14.6 billion of Social Security and Medicare benefits. The President said he expected and welcomed "a searching examination” of his budget by Congress. But he warned the lawmakers r gainst making "large slashes” In civilian or military programs. "It is my judgement that major cuts cannot be made without serious impairment to vital national objectives in defense, in education, in health, in the rebuilding of our cities, and in the attack on poverty,” Johnson said.

One fireman suffered a lip cut in fighting the flames that roared through the old frame structure. Fire Chief Jesse May said the fire apparently started in an office room, the only part of the building in use at the time. Smoke from the fire covered much of the city and wind carried flaming chips of wood into the downtown area 15 blocks away. About 50 firemen from five companies controlled the blaze after 30 minutes.

Would Provide Low Cost Loons WASHINGTON UPI — A revised Disaster Relief Act, aimed at providing low cost loans to victims of natural disasters such as the 1965 Indiana tornadoes, has been introduced In the House by Rep. J. Edward

Roush, D-Ind.

Roush, who said his measure covers areas left incomplete in a hurried-up version passed by the 89th Congress, urged the Public Works Committee to give his bill “priority consideration in view of the fact that disasters are seasonable tragedies, and we are just now entering Into the most severe stages of the winter months.” The bill would revise the Federal Loan Adjustment Section of the current law to provide "the additional provision that disaster loans could be made without regard to whether or not the required financial assistance might be provided by

private sources.”

Previously, disaster loans were denied to persons and businesses where private loans were available, "though at an extremely high rate,” Roush said. Roush’s bill would enable homeowners and businesses to apply for direct federal assistance through a state agency. "Shelter for disaster victims would set up as emergency housing on a rental basis of not more than 25 per cent of the family’s monthly income normally used for housing,” Roush said. "The new act further sets up measures for the repair of federal-aid highways which have been completed or are under

construction.”

Cigarette Tax Income Down INDIANAPOLIS UPI — Figures which showed a 7 per cent decrease in the amount of cigarette taxes collected by the State of Indiana should not be interpreted to mean fewer peo-

ple are smoking.

Ray Olson, administrator of the Indiana Department of Revenue’s cigarette tax division, said today that "apparently what happened was that dealers paid most of their taxes on cigarettes for the Christmas business in November instead

of December.”

"For the last six months of 1966, the cigarette tax receipts were up 2.5 per cent over the last half of 1965,” Olson said. However, the December figures show total collections of $3.1 million, compared to $3.3 million a year earlier. Olson said November tax receipts were up 16 per cent.

Woman's Skeleton M62 Years Old TERRE HAUTE UPI—Some women will never tell how old they are, but a former Vigo County nesident has caused some confusion about her age. An Indiana State University anthropologist said Sunday that the woman, whose remains were found along the Wabash River last summer, died about 505 A.D. That would mean she died 1,462 years ago. But Robert A. Hagmann, president of the Wabash Valley Archaelogical Society, said earlier a preliminary report indicated that the skeleton might be 3,500 years old. Robert Pace, assistant professor of anthropology at ISU, said there may even be some doubt about the sex of the skeleton. He said it is assumed to be that of a woman because it was found in a fire pit, where a woman might be buried. Pace led an expedition which uncovered the body during probing into an earthen lump known as the Old School House Mound, about 12 miles southwest of here near Prairie Creek. He said Carbon -14 tests, measuring the amount of radioactivity, indicated the bones to be about 1,500 years old. He said the skeleton was nearly intact, missing only the pelvic bone and some vertebrae. Pace said a report he intends to submit to the WVAS this Friday will shed further light on the age of the skeleton and “put the story in context.” Dr. Georg K. Neumann, of Indiana University’s anthropology department said he conferred with Pace and agreed with the age of about 1,500. Neumann said he believes the skeleton to be that of a member of a woodland Indian tribe which lived along the Wabash River during a time when pottery was used extensively. Hagmann said the preliminary study indicated that the “woman” may have been a member of a tribe which spent part of the year in the area. He said bone fragments from several other bodies were found at the site. Hagmann said also that the society’s diggers plan further excavation at the site during

1967.
