widely heralded
"swing the axe" or so-called "econ-
omy drives" which congress often
promises and seldom delivers. If
the budget is proportionally smaller
next year, 1t will be because figures
prepared by the Bureau of the Bud
get will have been checked by con-
gressional fiscal experts who get
their jobs on merit and who are obi
gated to no political party. These
men now are being selected by a
professional personnel expert
loaned from the business world.
At this writing the house and SEN
ate are struggling to find compro-
mise cut in the budget. Until they
determine the size of the budget,
they can't be sure Of what they
ought to do about taxes or reduc-
ing the national debt.
II 1t weren't that the budget
were compiled by one party and
authorized by another, we
wouldn't have as much wran-
Cling. Now there Is nothing
wrong with having plenty Of de-
bate on subject like this, pro-
vided one or both sides are vot-
ing on the basis Of actual facts
which are set forth by a disin-
terested authority whom the
public will accept. Such an au-
thority will be provided, we
hope, by the staff of fiscal ex-
perts next year.
Without such experts what hap
pens? The house goes on record as
to the budget cut it thinks it wants
to make. The appropriations COM
mittee cuts down the various items.
A bill is submitted again to the
house and the fight begins, each con-
gresham attempting to restore as
much of the appropriation for his
pet projects as possible. Log-rolling
gets under way and the total is
raised.
The same thing happens in the
senate where an individual senator's
demands are accorded even more
weight. Eventually the ante is raised
little more. And if it doesn't get
back up to the Presidents original
$37 800, 100000 estimate (Which may
have been too high ITSELF there will
be supplemental bill passed later
which will absorb any extra dollars
that are lying around.
When Senator Taft was asked by
Democratic Senator Mcmahon (who
was attacking the Republican cut)
if Taft wanted the senate to pass
on the question without having
much information as to what we
are doing" Taft frankly replied:
1--WE can only make an intel
ligent guess. We have no infor-
nation before us as to the par
ticular items of the S37, SOC, 00O,-
900 budget. in justification of the
figure fixed by the budget (bu-
reau) we only know what is
requested"
That is the keynote: I'VE only
know what is requested"
Why should the opposition party
take on faith the administration s
figure? We have two parties to check
on each other. Taft admits the Re-
publicans haven't the facts now but
he adds that in "ordinary" years
1--WE will have staff working dur
ing the recess"-supposedly COM
posed of these neutral experts who
now are being hired-"which can
give US more intelligent information
than we now have"
There's the hope.

PALESTINE:
Use Psychology

Britain resorted to psychology in
stead Of arms In an effort to check
the rampant Jewish underground in
Palestine.
By imposing martial law in Tel
Aviv, the British sealed this Jewish
industrial, financial and commercial
hub from the rest of the country,
seriously disrupting its business.
Thus, the Jewish leaders were faced

GREECE:
SOS

A rightist bastion in the eastern
Mediterranean and scene of a Bit
ter undercover political war between
Britain and Russia, Greece appealed
to the U. S. for financial and tech
meal aid to keep from going under
and becoming a Soviet satellite.
Greece's plea followed Britain's
notification to the U. S. that her
own economic difficulties made it
necessary for her to pull out of the
country. In asking the U. S. to
assume her obligations, Britain esti-
mated that it would cost 800 million
dollars to bolster Greece during the
next three years. Congressional
sources stated that $50 million dol
lars in relief and credit may be
required this year alone.
Primarily an agricultural state,
Greece was hit hard by the war,
with communications shot up, pro-
duction hampered by lack Of equip
ment, livestock depleted and essen
tial imports cut off. AS a result of
Britain's inability to lend economic
assistance because Of the pressure
of satisfying domestic needs and
maintaining essential exports, the
U. S. already has extended Greece
400 million dollars in postwar aid.

lessor at the University of Chicago
says.
Not more than 1865 Of the popu-

centage points a need for wider
and freer access to education
above the high school level, Ed
wards says.
He advanced his beliefs in a
speech to delegates at the 25th In
stitute for Higher Education at the
university.
America fails to provide hall Of
its most competent youths with
college training, Edwards says, be-
cause they cannot afford to go to
college.
"The national interest calls for
a policy that will open the doors
Of higher education, wider and
more easily to talented and am
bilious YOUTH" he said.
Both state and federal govern
ments must provide deserving yout
with scholarships covering tuition
and most of their living costs in
colleges Il the situation is to be

He also called for development
of community colleges and junior
colleges.

The
Acklinite
By Martin BachIi

At the last meeting between
management and the shop com
mittee, proposal was drawn UP
and submitted to the committee
for the elimination of excessive
waste and die and machine break
age. 1t is proposed that in the
event of doubling up or any fault
whereby the machine is not
working right due to mechanical
difficulties that the operator stop
the machine and notify his fore
man at once.
In the event that there has
been any damage done to the ma
chine or die breakage, the fore
man and committeeman shall in
vestigate the cause and in the
event that this was due to care
less or reckless operating the
party involved shall receive a
letter from the company and be
placed on a probation period of
four months. In the event that
this same party is involved a
second time in tool or machine
breakage due to careless operat-
ing within this four-month pro-
baton period he shall be given a
disciplinary lay off.
Due to the calling off of last
Sundays meeting at the hall this
proposal could not be brought up
and voted on. The committee
asks all employees to try to CO.
operate until such time as this
proposal is formally adopted.
