WASHINGTON, Jan. IA R -
Jim Webb wrote a 81, 900 check a
few years ago in Chapel Hill, N.
c., and wondered if it could be
good.
1t was the first sizeable check
he wrote as business manager OF
a research bureau at the University
of North Carolina.
Congress now is considering a
budget of $37, 900, 900, 900 from "the
business manager" of the United
States-the same Jim Webb, OF
Granville county, North Carolina,
whose official title is budget di.
rector.
In Chapel Hill, Webb managed
a 81, 900 revolving fund for the Uni
versity School of education.
In his first year as the govern
ment's No. 1 business man, he has
been concerned with more than
$40, 600, 900, 600.
He is the first budget director in
Is years to recommended a reduc-
ton in government spending.
Bigtime Lawyer
Only 40 years old-an airplane
pilot and bigtime lawyer-Webb
as a government man is getting a
name around town of being "a real
business man b%udgeter."
Since last June he has directed
a staff Of $50 government budget

time.
The President conferred more
often with Business Manager
Webb during the seven-month pre-
paration of this budget than with
any other person with the possible
exception of Presidential assistant
John Steelman.
Many Conferences
In the last six weeks before the
big book was completed these con-
ferences were held three or four
times a week and often for an hour
and a half each.
Webb is a precise, orderly per-
son. He's a believer in double-entry
bookkeeping and has all sorts OF
techniques, like tipping and short
hand, among his talents.
His search for short cuts to gov

like the efficiency experts ap-

Andrews referred the subject to a
subcommittee headed by Represent

Jersey "for such future action as
they may take"
Mr.. Towe's group will meet early
next week to decide what to do. It
may order more hearings, since Rep

Missouri, second-ranking commit
