Tax Slash Can Come
Only With Arms CUT,
Wallace Declares
ey the As,ociofeJ Press

Secretary of Commerce Wallace
told the American people last night
that their taxes can be cut only
when we have world in which high
armments won't be necessary"
And that kind of world" Mr..
Wallace said, can come only with
world wide economic cooperation,
bolstered by political cooperation in
the United Nations"
Appearing with Assistant Secre-
tary of State Clayton on MICS
radio series on foreign policy, Secre-
tary Wallace called for further large
foreign loans by the United States
"if we seriously want to exercise
leadership for peace and greater
freedom of trade"
Mr.. Clayton set up $4,000 100000
to $4,000 100000 as an annual goal
for United States exports.
1t will take at least that volume,
he said, to keep Americas S economy
running atop speed. He added:
That figure may even be too low,
if We get imitation and the value of
the dollar goes down.
And, of course, in the long run
we'll need to import at least as much
as We export or people abroad won't
be able to buy our goods-at least
not for long
Both men agreed that the United
States, as the worlds greatest pro-
duclng nation and its only great
lending nation, has at the moment
responsibility for leadership in eco
nomic and political affairs
Mr.. Wallace did not go into de-
tail on his statement about the
need for sustaining the tax levels.
The subject came up when Mr.. Clay
ton said that one of the penalties
which an American has to pay for
the last war rs high taxes"
yes" Mr. Wallace said. Look
at our war budget for the 1947 fiscal
year-sl3, 900, 100000 for the armed
forces, 1000 900, 900 for war lioui-
dation activities and another s10,-
600 100000 for interest on our war
debt and for veterans-a total OF
s28 900 100000.
Our taxes can be cut only when
we have world in which high
armaments won't be necessary-and
that kind of world can come only
with worldwide economic cooper
alton bolstered by political cooper
alton in the United Nations"
