Operation of the Federal gov
ernment during the fiscal year
l950-1951 will cost the residents
of Union County an estimated
So, 3,066,218, if the Truman budget
submitted to Congress Jan. 8, is
enacted into law, according to
the Ohio Chamber of Commerce.
Estimated cost for the State at.
large would be $2,452, ,974,2 200, or
more than 10 times the total ex-
penditures for all public schools
in 1948, it was announced We'd
nesday by Herschel c. Atkinson,
the Ohio Chambers Executive
Vice President.
The States estimated share,
Mr.. Atkinson said, also repre-
sents three and one-fifth times
the amount appropriated by the
Ohio General Assembly to oper-
ate the state government during
the l949-l951 biennium. This in
cludeS also the payment of the
soldier bonus, the proposed
building program, construction of
highways, and the operation of
the Conservation and Liquor De-
partments.
S306.62 Per Person
The burden would be approxi-
mately $30662 for every man,
woman, and child in the State, or
$l,226.48 for every Ohio family,
Mr.. Atkinson stated.
The Ohio Chamber official
pointed out that every individual
pays these taxes, both direct and
indirect, in the price of food and
everything used and consumed.
Taxes are absorbed in the selling
cost, and contribute heavily to
today's high cost of living.
In comparing Union County's
burden of $3,066,218 in proposed
Federal spending, the Ohio
Chambers statistics showed that
the amount is approximately
6-1/5 times the total real, public
utility and tangible personal
property taxes collected for all
purposes in the county for 1948.
The amount of these taxes in
Union County was $499, ,290, ac-
cording to the analysis.
Formula for Estimation
The estimates represent the
share Ohio taxpayers would have
to meet for the entire S42, AGO.
100000 Federal expenditures as
set forth in the Presidential
budget.
The Union County journal. [volume] (Marysville, Ohio) 1875-1951, 1950-01-23

Mr.. Atkinson contended that
the budget can be balanced in
1851 without increasing Federal
taxes.
1T can be balanced by reduc-
ing non-essential expenditures
just as we have done on the
farm, in business and industry
in Ohio, and as every Ohio
housewife has had to do in these
days of high taxes and high
prices" he said.
The Ohio Chamber official
maintained that a substantially
smaller budget than that pro-
posed by the President would
provide adequately for every es-
sential outlay of the government.
Such a budget, amounting to
S36, 900, 100000, Mr.. Atkinson
pointed out, was proposed recent
ly by United States Senator
Harry F. Byrd, a recognized au-
thority on Federal Fiscal affairs.
Senator Byrd's budget, he said,
did not allow for the continua-
ton of wasteful and unnecessary
spending at Washington.
Would Balance Budget
Under the Byrd program"
Mr.. Atkinson stated, "the FEEDER
al budget could be balanced in
1851 with some funds left over
to cut the staggering public
debt. The Truman budget on the
other hand would make another
tremendous deficit inevitable in
1851. 1t would plunge the nation
still deeper into debt and would
further depreciate the value of
the dollars with which we run
our households, business e S,
schools, and local government
services"
The difference between the
Truman budget of $42, ,400,OO0,OOO
and the Byrd budget of $36,00O,-
100000, he explained, is Sc, 6,400,-
100000 of wasteful and hnneces-
sary government spending.
Congress should take immedi-
ate steps to eliminate extrava-
CANT items from the Truman
budget, he stated.
Continuance of deficit financ-
ing practices in Washington, de-
signed to satisfy entrenched
spending interests, is intolerable
and unthinkable, Mr.. Atkinson
concluded.

'Polly-ticls" is warming up
hereabouts.
It's almost full year until the
next general election and more
than three months until the May
primary, but anyone wanting to
run must file his nominating pc
titions by Feb. /.
That's not very far off, which
accounts for all the running
around the candidates are doing
at the present time.
So far, it seems to be open
season" for the auditors office, so
far as the Republicans are con-
cerned. At least two candidates
have already made their formal
announcements, and it is under
stood there will be others.
The two who have their hats
in the ring are Beryl Morris, Lees
burg Township, former clerk of
Courts, and Norman G.. Williams,
deputy auditor under Frank T,
MeCurdy for the past seven years.
Among those who are under
stood to be considering filing for
the same office are some very
strong men, and if they all come
out, it looks like a wide-open
race for the job.
The one Commissioners office
to be filled this year will also
have competition in the primary
on the Republican side. Walter
Robinson, Leesburg township
farmer, is seeking reelection and,
in fact, was the first of any can
didates to announce.
Opposing him, SO far, will be
Herbert w. Shroyer, also of Lees
burg Township.
It is said that aureomyecin,

we're beginning to wonder if
it wasn't named for the price
instead of the color.

The soft coal industry is up in
arms over the importation of for
eign oil.
John L. Lewis United Mine
Workers also are concerned. So
are the CIO oil workers and the
railroad brotherhoods, many Of
whose jobs may be at stake.
A big session of operators and
union representatives was held
here yesterday to plan a major
assault on oil imports. Earlier,
they sent a delegation to seek CO.
operation Of Interior Secretary
Chapman.
State Department Named.
Members of the delegation were
noncommittal about Mr.. Chap
mans attitude, but they said the
Truman administration had not
been too cooperative up to now.
The State Department is pushing
the imports. said DR.. Charles j.
Potter. wartime solid fuels ad-
ministrator and now president of
the Rochester and Pittsburgh
Coal Co.
The coal producers are pro-
testing the import of Bunker c.
type oil-the residue which is left
from crude after other products
are refined from it. That can be
used only for firing industrial
boilers-and it's so cheap that it
can replace coal for industrial
purposes.
$4,000 to Lose Jobs.
DR.. Potter told a news confer
ence that the rate of contract
losses with the start of the new
contract year April l, indicated oil
imports alone would force $4,000
miners out of jobs in the next
year. Another $4,000 railroad
workers may lose their jobs, as
coal shipments fall of.
Seventy-five per cent of the for
eign oil is coming from Venezuela,

This, however, could be corrected If the
bill provided that the corporation be housed
with and controlled by the Veterans Admin
istration. If the veteran is required to 60 one
place for such things as disability pension
application, G. l. training information, etc.,
and to some other place to pay his insurance
premiums, believe 1t will not only be an
inconvenience to him, but more costly to the
government.
On the other hand, can see distinct ad-
vantages to the veteran, and especially to his
beneficiary, in the Insurance Corporation idea.
Under the present setup all premiums are
paid into the general fund of the United States
and all benefits are paid from the same fund.
Therefore. benefit payments require congress
sional appropriation. If the insurance program
were operated as a government corporation,
all premiums would be paid into the corpora
ton and all claims paid out of it without the
necessity of Congressional appropriation.
This should result In better service In claim
payments to beneficiaries and in lower operat-
ing costs.
The other bill is HR 5182, now before the
Expenditures Committee. 1t provides that all
governmental medical functions be brought
under a United Medical Administration. AL
though I do not ant to substitute my judg-
ment for that of the Hoover Commission task
force which studied this problem, I believe
that my past experience in military hospital
administration (service in the U.S. Navy Med
ical Department. does give me some back
ground for forming an opinion.
1t seems to me that the Commission mini
mized or did not take into consideration a
major important premise, that many govern
mental medical services, particularly the vet
eran and military services, are integral with
