WASHINGTON

WASHINGTON, D. 9th,

pubic SpenuIIS ufdlIl.
Things were moving pell-mell
toward huge federal tax increase
and a naionl deficit. Then a Re-
publican move to call halt found
substantial Democratic support.
A House administration-dOm-
mated committee had approved
expenditures and contract au-
ithiorizatlions totaling nearly Sc
billion more in fiscal 1850 than
was used in fiscal 1949 as the
first nine appropriation bills wereI
being approved.
But, in the Senate, Republican
leaders stepped forward with a
motion to chop down the first of
those nine bills by five per
cent slash. That started the par
ade toward an economy drive
for a change.
Of the nine appropriation bills,
which so far have passed the
House, seven called for increas-
es and two demanded reductions.
The reductions were a meager
81 million in the District of
Columbia and $55 million in the
Army Civil Functions Bill.
HUGE INCREASES
I'M SPENDING
These were the increases.
$527 million for Treasury and
Post Office Departments.
1854 million for Labor and
Federal Security Departments.
$127 million for Interior De-
partment.
1927 million for State and
Justice Departments.
SO billion for National Military
Establishment.
1926 million for Independent
Offices.
This trend Of spending for fis-
cal 1850 would send the budget
soaring far above the $40 billion
called for in the 1919 appropria-
tons.
All along, President Truman
who has been. urging all this
spending and more, said in. his
budget messages that the esti
mated income for fical 1856
would be $4O,9S5, 100000.

run upwards of Sc billion in ex
cess OF income, something mus

 Reports made showed that nine institutions with assets of nearly five million dollars are affiliated.
