Two Senators Urqe
Military Budget Cut
To u. 5. Tax Pattern
BY the Associated Press

Senator O'Mahoney, Democrat,
of Wyoming said today he has
cautioned Secretary of Defense
Lovett and Pentagon officials to
cut next years military spending
to fit the pattern of tax revenues.
Senator O'Mahoney got immedi-
ate support in this move from
Senator Flanders, Republican, of
Vermont, who told a reported
Congress must inform the Defense
Department:
Here is. how much money we
are going to allow you to spend and
you shape your budget accord
ingly."
President Truman will go to work
on the overall budget, including
the military items, at his winter
retreat in Key West, Fla, after
his conferences this week with
Gen. Eisenhower.
Senator O'Mahoney said he has
conferred with Mr.. Lovett and
Pentagon officials in an effort to
head off any outsized military re-
quests.
! Doubt New Tax Increase.
From the Secretary down, I
told them they had better cut
their requests to fit the pattern of
revenues or Congress would be
likely to do it for them" he added
Senator O'Mahoney, who heads
the Senate House Economic Com
mittee. and Senator Flanders, a
member of the group, agreed that
any additional tax increases are
unlikely.
I'VE have reached the limit of
taxes. SO far as rates are con-
'cerned." Senator O'Mahoney said.
THE only way we can avoid crit
ical imitation is to keep spending
within the limits Of revenues.
Noting that military procure
ment appropriations totaled $50
billion in the Congress which just
ended-as compared to the total
military appropriation of $57 bill
lion-Senator O'Mahoney said
that is the best place to cut down
next year. Any such cuts, how
ever. wouldn't be reflected in
spending for the 1852 calendar
year because of the huge sums
made available by Congress
already.
Senator Flanders said he IS
convinced taxes can't be raised
despite the outlook that the Pres
ident again will request an in
crease in his January messages to
Congress.
Favors Watchdog Committee.
The Vermont Senator said he
thinks watchdog committee such
as that proposed by Senator Lodge.
Republican. of Massachusetts, and
Endorsed by Herbert Hoover could
be helpful in requiring the mill
tary to fit its OUTLAWS into the
pattern of Government receipts.
Senator Lodge released a letter
from Mr.. Hoover yesterday say
ing that since Federal appropri-
ations now are running into many
billions something more than the
normal congressional committees
are essential for watchdog pur-
poses"
Senator Lodge said the pro-
posed special Senate House COM
4mittee could hire d staff to main
tain "a 365-day year super
vision of all defense spending"
| Senator O'Mahoney said such a
proposal is likely to get action in
the Senate early in the year.
In the meantime. he said the
Senate Appropriations Committee
staff will be enlarged after Janu-
airy / through an additional $780,
900 fund made available in the

An Emergency Court Of Appeals

The Treasury Department told

Assistant Treasury Secretary E

Columbia Hospital InstoUs
$4,000 Modern Kitchen

I During the "a months of con-
struction. new floor was laid to
replace the leaky concrete one.
new partitions were installed and
''Walk-in" iceboxes were built in
more convenient positions.
Among the new construction
was a deep freeze. where temper
atures hover around 10 degrees be-
low zero. 1t has been filled with
$4,000 worth of meat, which even
lat today's high prices means
enough rib roaSts, steaks and
chops to make a butcher envious.
Need for new cooking facilities
to replace those installed IS years
ago has long been a pressing one.
The hospital serves between 10000
and 10000 meals a month to
patients and the staff.
Food is prepared on an as
Sembly line system. 1t moves
from the iceboxes to adjoining
preparation tables, then to the
ranges, if cooking is required, and
finally is ladled out into cleo
trically pre-heated carts for de-
livery to the patients.
Adjoining the kitchen is a re-
decorated cafeteria for the staff
and diet kitchen where special
meals are prepared.
Maj. Gen. Albert w. Kenner,
superintendent of the hospital,
pointed out the new kitchen will
not only make food-serving easier
and faster, but will probably also
mean saving in the long run
because new storage rooms will
make large scale buying possible
and inventory taking easier.

~ necticut bumped into Justice
Felix Frankfurter, close friend of
Secretary of State Acheson, at a
cocktail party the other day and re-
marked:
whats the matter with Dean?
Why is he so cautious? Here the
Russians are out promising the
moon to the world, and we sit with
our mouths shut like a bump on a

81 know it," replied Frankfurter.
'It's the English in Dean. He won't
promise more than he can give"
Frankfurter referred to the fact
that Acheson's mother belonged to
the well-known Canadian Gooder-
ham family.
What Senator Mcmahon re-
ferred to was the fact that
American propaganda abroad
has not always shown magma
ton and initiative, and that we
have not pounded home the very
real fact that the American peo-
pie want peace.
Regardless of Acheson's English
forebears, however, part of this fail
ure is probably more due to the
fact that the state department has
been so bounded by senatorial
critics that it is punch-drunk and
timid. If it makes any peace moves,

Tests Popularity
General MacArthur's trip to
Texas is much more than visit to
admiring friends. Actually, it is
carefully timed test of political
popularity to see whether the gen.
erals hackers should go any furth-
er in their latent plans to push him
for the presidency.
One of the men behind the Texas
trip is congressman Al doc"
Miller of Nebraska, the same COP
leader who promoted Macarthur for
president in 1913. 1t was partly on
Congressman Miller's urging that
Macarthur entered the Wisconsin
and Nebraska primaries.
Both primaries proved a disap-
pointment, and Macarthur felt that
his Republican friends had let him
down. Earlier, in Tokyo, the general
had talked with optimistic visiting
politicians who predicted that the
American people would rise up al
most unanimously to draft him.
Macarthur had even told Lieut..
Gen. Robert Eichelberger, then in
Tokyo, that he expected to be sum-
moned back to the United States
during the COP convention in 1913
and that he, Eichelberger, should
be prepared to take over as COM
mander of Japan.
However, Macarthur head
quarters during the 1948 con-
vention proved to be the emp
test place in Philadelphia, and
Macarthur felt that the party
had taken him up on the high
mountain.
Since the visit to Chicago was
disappointing, in that the general
failed to fill Soldiers Field; and
since the trip to Murfreesboro,
Tenn, also failed to fill the local
stadium, the Texas visit will be ex-
tremely important. Texas has prom
ised tremendous ovation, and if
it goes over big, his close political
hackers hope that Macarthur will
let his campaign cap be tossed into
the ring.
