Truman Asks For
Al Billion Budget

President Truman on Monday sent
to Congress the largest peacetime
budget in history-$41, 1855, 100000.
Half of the total, he said, was
needed for the international and
national defense programs. "The
military forces recommended in this
budget" he noted, "are the most
powerful this nation has even main
tanned in peacetime."
For foreign aid, mainly for Europe
in the cold war against Russia, he
asked $6,70O,OO0,OOO.
The proposed budget is $1,67S, O0O,-
600 larger than the one the past year
He asked for tax increase of near
ly six billion. First he asked for four
billion, mostly on corporations. Then
he asked nearly two billions in social
security taxes, to finance new and
Old programs.
Mr.. Truman said prospects for the
1851 fiscal year are for even greater
governmental costs.
Republicans called the Truman
figures dangerous, reckless and over
estimated. One said it proposed "new
spending programs which will grow
even greater in future years"
