bruises. They began to- make
their way to open country. For
six days they lived on berries and
shared three pieces of chewing gum.
Finally they stumbled on an old
shack where stale provisions gave

tinued to a remote farm, where
they were reported feeling well

No appropriations for perma-

The document stated that such
an appropriation was being held
up pending completion Of negoti-
ations affecting various phases of
the Home operations including
construction of a hospital on the
grounds for the joint use Of the
Home and the Veterans Admins
tration." Such an appropriation
would come from the Homes per-
manent fund. which is contributed
to by the soldiers. and not from the
general fund of the Treasury.
The budget estimated that the
Home permanent fund would total
$53,194.06s during the 1950-51
fiscal period, compared with an
estimated $46,236.559 this year.
A total of $2,395, 900 would be

Reorganization Plans Due.
Mr.. Truman made it plain that
he would send additional reor-
ganization plans to Congress.
He specifically mentioned the
Federal Security Agency.
II recommend again that the
Federal Security Agency be given
departmental status; its functions
are so important to the domestic

Post Office Mentioned.
The President also urged Con-
gress to take action to allow the
Post Office to maintain its own
accounts and conduct its financial

Would Cut Farming Outlay.
On the farming front the Presi-
dent proposed q cut Of nearly half
a-billion dollars to $2.2o6. .00o, 900
for next years outlay. He said that
cas- the necessary adjustments
in agriculture are completed, we
should look forward to a reduction
Of budgetary expenditures" He
predicted that price support costs
would drop. to $952, 900, 600. but
conceded that estimates "are, Of
course, highly tentative" because
Of many factors which cannot be
forecast. He asked for q $1,000
100000 increase in the borrowing
authorization Of the Commodity
Credit Corporation in this con-
nection.
The President recommended q
$243, 3,0oo. 900 expenditure for the
Labor Department. This Is an in
crease OF about $25 ZOO. 900 over
this years figure. He repeated his
request for q new labor law to re-
place the Taft-Hartley Act, pro-
posed to strengthen the mediation
and conciliation service and said
that a labor extension service

The Budget Bureau believes that
it has gone a long way this year
in presenting a performance"
budget as recommended by the
Hoover Commission.
In doing so it has:
/. Reduced the budget to 6A
pounds, one pound less than last
years budget. and to 1,401 pages
as against last years 1923 pages.
2. Made it much more interest
ing than it was formerly.
The bureau conceded there was
a conscious effort made to popu-
larize the big document. The aim
was not only to let the taxpayer
know what the money is going for,
but to interest him as well.
For instance. he may learn that
it costs .185 of a cent to make a
penny. The cost of making 1000
pennies in the 1851 fiscal year is
put at $1.85, or 4 cents less than
this year.
He may find, also, that there

planes this year, would be cut
back to $500 next year. The Air
National Guard and Air Reserve
would be organized into ~ groups
and Is base wings, respectively,
with a total Of 3.400 planes.
Air Force Program Slowed.
Mr.. Truman thus recommended
for the second year that the orig
inar Air Force program for build
ing up to a 70-group air armada
over a four-year period be de-
f1nitely slowed if not stopped.
That program became an objec-
tive on the basis of q 194s report
by an advisory commission and
Congress last year attempted to
begin to place 1t In effect by pass
ing an additional appropriation.
However. Mr.. Truman has never
let the Air Force spend the funds
on the ground that it would throw
the defense team out of balance.
A total of $2,100, ,000. 900 would
be spent for 2,317 airplanes for the
Air Force and Navy, compared
with the expenditure Of $1,700,-
100000 for 1890 planes this year.
The Air Force would receive
1872 Of the new planes, compared
with 1903 this year. The Navy
would get 945 planes; 1t received
997 this year.
OF the new planes, 5 per cent
were ordered during the 1947-48
fiscal year, so per cent during the
following period and IS per cent
during the current fiscal year
which ends June 80.
Only 10 per cent Of the planes
which would be ordered during
the next fiscal year would be ac-
tually delivered then.
The armed forces under the
Presidents budget actually would
expend total Of $12,853 ,000. 900
during the next fiscal year, q net
increase of some $500, ,000, 900 over
this year because of the fact that
they will be paying for weapons
and equipment ordered In prior
years.
Last year Mr.. Truman asked
Congress to provide $14.219. 900. 900
for the military and Congress
finally came through with $13,-
319, 9,000,0 900 for both actual ex-
penditures and obligational au-
thority.
The budget listed separately q
number Of items supporting de-
tense" including 100000 900 for
stockpiling Of strategic and criti-
cal materials and $63, 900, 900 for
the National Advisory Committee
for Aeronautics. These items,
when added to the actual requests
for the military, brought the over
all total to $13,545.00 900. !

Measures 10 Improve
Civil Service System
Asked by President
By Joseph Young

President Truman today asked
Congress to enact basic legisla-
ton" to improve the Govern
ment's civil service system.
In submitting his annual budget
message, Mr.. Truman asked for
the legislation ito make possible
further improvements in the way
the Government recruits, trains
and supervises its employees"
While the President did not
make any specific proposals at
this time in this regard, it's
known that the Budget Bureau,
the Civil Service Commission and
top Federal personnel officials are
working on legislation that will be
submitted to Congress within the
next few months.
Leeway Sought for Agencies.
Administration officials say that
proposals probably will be made
to Congress to permit more de-
centralization of personnel au-
thority to the various departments
and agencies. although not on the
wide scope proposed by the Hoover
Commission. Under the forth
coming proposals, the Civil Serv-
ice Commission would still retain
a strong role in formulating and
policing Federal personnel activi-
ties, although the individual agen-
cies would have more leeway In
activities. p:
The administration also is ex-
pected to recommend more hiring
leeway for Federal agencies, with
the present one-out-o three hir-
ing rule discarded for middle and
upper bracket jobs.
Proposals Repeated.
In his budget message. President
Truman made these recommended
tions to Congress concerning Fed
eral employees, proposals WHICH ne
also made last year:
/. The granting of unemploy-
ment compensation benefits to
Government employees. Federal
workers at present do not have
the benefits which are accorded
to most employees in private In
2. The creation Of q new Gov
ernment corporation to operate
Federal cafeterias and recreational
services for Federal employees.
In this regard, President Tru-
man said:

security of our nation as a whole.
1t should not be forgotten that most of present
states achieved statehood at relatively early period
of their development The stimulus of being admitted
as full partners in the Union, and the challenge Of
managing their own affairs were among the most
significant factors contributing to their growth and
progress Very existing states, at the time
of their admission to the Union possessed potential
resources both human and natural superior to those
of Alaska and Hawaii. am confident that Alaska
and Hawaii like our present states, will grow with
statehood and because of statehood.
There is no necessity for me to repeat at this time
the arguments for statehood The many qualified wit
who have appeared before your committee have
am sure presented convincing evidence both to
the need for and the tangible benefits to be derived
from statehood There is however, one objection made
by opponents of H r. 81 and H r. 40 which believe
requires further discussion because it beyond the
question of statehood and raises fundamental con-
stitutional referring to the objection that
Alaska and Hawaii States would be entitled to rep
resentaon Senate of the United States dispor
Tomato to their population.
This argument is not only entirely without merit,
but also directly attacks basic tenet of the consti
tutional system under which this nation has grown
and prospered. Without the provision for equal rep
resenaton in the Senate of states both great and
have been United States. This of the great
compromises which the Federalist says was result
mot of theory but of a spirit and amity, and that
mutual Difference and concession which the popularity
of our political situation rendered indispensable"
There is no Justification for denying statehood to
Alaska and Hawaii on the basis of an issue which
was resolved by the Constitutional Convention in
1897
America justly takes pride in Its record of full
filling to the letter obligations to foreign nations
We should be no less scrupuous in carrying out the
promises made to citizens in Alaska and
Hawaii The case for statehood rests on both legal
and moral grounds
These are troubled times. I know OF rev better
ways in which demonstrate to the world our
deep faith in democracy and the principle OF self
government than by admitting Alaska and Hawaii to
the Union as the forty ninth and fiftieh states.
Very sincerely yours,
HARRY S. TRUMAN.
