new budget carries SPLIT to draw

At the same time the budget asks
an increase from $941, 700 to ST.

An increase is also asked for

budget Message Asks
Repeal Of Ceilings on
|U.S.CiviIian Employees

President Truman today asked
Congress in his budget message te
repeal statutory ceilings on the
number of Federal civilian employees
and permit the totals to be con-
trolled solely by appropriations
The approximations process, to
my mind, Is farspreferable to the
personnel ceilings and limitations, -
Mr.. Truman declared. since these
place undue emphasis upon the
number of employees and put a
premium on contractual arrange
ments and other measures to get
the necessary work done without
exceeding numerical limitations"
Federal agencies already have re-
duced civilian personnel from a
wartime peak of 3,770,o00 in June,
1915, to 100000, including those
serving outside the continental
United States, he reported.
Further Cuts Seen.
Mr.. Truman pointed out the new
budget estimates contemplate fur
ther reductions"
The personnel reductions were
facilitated by the statutory limita-
tions on personnel and provisions
for detailed ceiling determinations
enacted by the Seventy ninth. Con-
gress," he said. When we. began. to
convert to a peacetirne basis and
appropriations greatly exceeded ex-
penditures, this legislation served q
useful purpose.
"By the Legislative Reorganiza-
ton Act, the Congress has in effect
decided that the extent of Federal
activities, and hence personnel
should be determined by the usual
appropriations process. The statu-
tory limitations and personnel CELL
ings constitute separate and pos
sibly conflicting method of con-
trolling the number of employees"
The statutory limitations to which
the President referred provide a
formula for progressive reduction in
the Federal force.
1,611,0 Total Sought.
The continuing cuts are intended
to bring the Federal civilian per-
sonnel total down to 1911 900, ex-
elusive of overseas personnel, by
July l.
Mr.. Truman reported drastic cuts
in civilian personnel of the Wal
and Navy Departments and in emer-
gency war agencies, except in the
War Assets Administration, which
is at the height of its work"

Administration, the Post Office and

Projects down for $443, 900 900, al
though the anticipated outlay is
carried under natural resources
category instead of national de-
tense.
The President reiterated his be-
i lief that unification of the armed
forces is an important step in the
search for economy and efficiency
but because that proposal still is in
controversy and yet to reach the
floor of either house his budget rec
concentrations contained no merger
provisions.
Personnel Down Half Million.
The Army and Navy together will

the next fiscal year of 1,640,00 men

Babies to Help
Cut Per Capita
Debt of 1882

Your share of the national
debt is $1,832.25, the Treasury
says. And you won't be getting
out of debt very fast.
BY June 80, 1948, the per
capita debt will be $1,819.58, on
the basis of President Truman's
budget message today. 1t FORE
casts the national debt at $780,
200, 100000 eighteen months
from now.
The reduction of $12.67 will
be due mostly to population in
crease, not debt retirement.
With a population increase of a
million a year, each new infant
takes over a chunk of deficit.
The population now is slightly
more than 141 500, 900, Census

the argument for a national health
program.
Health Program Urged.
"The major problem of financing
health care still persists" he said.
Therefore I again urge the Con-
gress to enact health insurance
program which will make adequate
medical care available to every one
and provide protection against the
economic hardships of sickness.
Such a program should be almost
entirely self financing through pay
roll contributions"
Extended coverage for old age in
surance and unemployment COM
pensation also was urged anew in
the message.
"At the same time, retirement
benefits for the aged should be lib
eralized to reduce the necessity for
piecing out insurance benefits with
public assistance payments" Mr..
Truman said. He told Congress
again, too, that he favors depart
mental status for the Federal Sc
curity Agency.
International Commitments Cited.
In support of the $500, ,000, 900
item for international affairs and
finance, which amounts to a reduc-
ton of nearly $4,000, ,000, 900 from this
years figure, the President said:
eve, still have contractual COM
mitments to make good in connec-
tion with our loan agreement with
the United Kingdom and under the
reconstruction lending program of
the Export Import Bank. We must
discharge our occupation RESPONSE
bilities in Europe and the Far East.
We must provide for war damage
restoration in the Philippines and
for the relief and settlement of dis
placed people in Europe. We must
continue to give relief to some other
countries which are most urgently
in need.
1.-The work of the United Nations
and the specialized organizations as
sociated with it is of the highest i'm
portance. We must not fail in our
support. The Department of State,
for which increased appropriations
are requested, must be prepared to
carry an increasing load of work in
the growing field of American for
eign relations"
In proposing an expenditure of
81, $50, 100000 for transportation and
communication, the President told
Congress that six years of deferred
maintenance necessitates increased
expenditures for the improvement of
motor and water transportation as
we'll as airport facilities adequate to
postwar needs.

Here is what the Army can do
with its budget:
Provide for a force of 1,070, 900
troops, with 100000 overseas, chiefly
on occupation duties, and $4,000
at home, during the year starting
July /.
Maintain an air force of about
400, 900 men and 10 groups of air.
planes including bombers and fight
ers. OF the groups, SIS will be active
and the rest skeletonized, the active
groups being maintained at about 80
per cent strength.
! Operate a research program which
includes $145, ,0O0,0 for Army Air
Forces research and totals more
than quarter of a billion dollars.
The AAF's program, which includes
development of rocket missiles, COM
pares with an estimated expendi-
ture of about $184,000,00 for the
present year and is, less than half
the amount reported to have been
asked originally by AAF planners.
More for Reserves.

ized Reserves and Reserve Officers
Training Corps programs costing
$190, $40, 600, an increase of more
than two-thirds over the present
year when these organizations were
just resuming operation after the
end of wartime Federal service.
In discussing the citizen-reserve
organizations and the general OBJ
jective of the military program, Mr..
Truman made two points:
1s"Advent of new weapons capa-
BILE of striking vast distances with
out warning" requires that the exist
ing force be sufficient to repulse the
initial blow of an attacker.
2. The National Guard and Re-
