LONDON, Nov. II. - Iraq's
Prime Minister, who has been try

that would ease Middle East ten

tonight with British Foreign Sec

said he could give no estimate of
the range within which the next
budget might fall.
Nor was there any word from
the budget director.
F0resee Record Bill.
With $40 billion spending pro-
ducing deficit this year of around
SIS billion. according to the fig
ures of Treasury Secretary John
w. Snyder, even under new tax
rates. boost in the outlay would
call for another record-breaking
revenue bill. A request of that sort
from the White House is certain
to spell trouble, particularly in an
election year.
President Truman got but little
more than half of what he asked
in the $5.7 million tax bill that
went into effect on November /,
and despite insistence that defense
must be financed on a pay-as-you-
go basis, Senator George, Demo-
crat. Georgia, chairman of the
Senate Finance Committee, as
serted than that he would not vote
another tax increase.
Working on Speech.
The President also continued
work today on the speech he will
deliver before the Women's Ma
tional Democratic Club in Wash
ington, Tuesday night. Mr.. Short
said that it would be political"
and it's tenor is certain to be
watched for an indication of the
Presidents personal plans for
1852.
Mr.. Short said also that he be-
lieved the President had received
the memorandum he requested
from Representative King, to sup
port the California Democrats
request for the release of tax files
from the Justice Department
bearing on the King Subcom-
mittee's investigation of tax ir-
regularities. There was however,
nothing to indicate if and when
the President would release the
data.
Silent on Caudle.
Nor did the White House have
any further word on the custer
of Assistant Attorney General T.
Lamar Caudle, Justice tax unit
chief, which came suddenly yes
terday as a by-product of the

we would be able to do by this
time"
The general even ripped off the
secrecy labels on some shipments
to France to back up his reports.
Surprised and Shocked.
Senator Johnson, in a lengthy
statement, said he, was surprised
and even shocked to read this.
The public reports by the gen.
eral. said the senator, fiagarantly
contradicted secret data previously
given the subcommittee. We sent
Senate investigators to ask an ex-
PLANTATION from the general.
Senator Johnson said the truth
was that when the original
schedules for arms shipments to
NATO countries broke down, -
military assistance officials set ur
new schedules they knew could be
met land then blithely announced
that everything was ahead OF
schedule.
This is an outstanding example
OF the type of thing that created
widespread suspicion concerning
the integrity of our Government y
he declared. "The public has be-
come weary of confusing and mis-
leading pictures of conditions
painted by officials who apparently
do not believe that the public can
be trusted with the facts"
Parts of Dark Picture.
The Senator said that he could
pick out parts of the secret mill
tary reports on European arms
shipments that could paint a
very black and depressing pic
ture."
THAT black and depressing pic
ture would not reflect the facts
accurately" he added. But it
would be as valid as the super
optimistic view presented to the
public by Gen. Olmsted."
The Senator added that he was
not attempting to blame Gen.
Olmsted for the delivery failures.
Subcommittee staff studies indi-
cate that the flag is due to cir
cumstances beyond his control"
he said.
But I wish to enter a strong
protest against the all too preva-
lent practice in certain Govern
ment circles of double talk state
ments designed to convince the
public that everything is for the
best in this best of all possible
worlds" the Senator said, add
ing:
Sees No Fear of Reaction.
"The people are entitled to the
truth-whether pleasant or un-
pleasant. whether heartening or
disheartening. There is no need to
fear their reaction to it,"

added:

period"
The Army Regulations, in a
paragraph entitled Election to,
and performance of, duties of
public Office" has this to say:
Members of the Regular Army,
while on active duty, may accept
nomination for public office, pro-
vlded such nomination is rendered
without direct or indirect activity
or solicitation on their part"
This provision is more firmly
nailed down by the regulation af-
fecting members of the Army
"other than the regular compon-
ent", which permits them while
on active duty to become candi-
dates for public Office without the
tender of the nomination as pro-
vided for members of the Regular
Army.
Gen. Eisenhower's refusal to
talk politics or to seek in any Way
a presidential nomination, while
he is on active duty as NATO
supreme commander, appears,
therefore, in strict conformity
with the regulations. Once he is
out OF that job, and inactive, he
apparently will be entirely free to
speak out and to campaign, if he
desires, for a Presidential nomin-
alton if it were rendered him by

Communists asked a number of
questions about the proposal and
then asked for recess until Mon
day g am. Sunday, EST.
The entire 80-minute session to-
day was taken UP with Communist
questions and U. N. replies.
The United Nations negotiators
yesterday made this four-point
proposal:
l. Hostilities to continue until a
full armistice is signed.
2. The present battleline to
form a provisional cease-flre line
and basis for a provisional de-
militarized zone.
3. This line and zone to become
the final versions provided a COM
.plete armistice is reached within
80 days: and
4. II an armistice is not COM
pleted within the deadline, the ne
gotiators will start over by draw
ing a new provisional cease-fire
line based on wherever the battle
line may be at that time.
Other Points to Come Up.
The Communists said the pro-
posal seems in the main to be
in accordance with our principles, u
but said they wanted to ponder it.
They promised to give their de-
tailed comments" at today's ses-
sion.
Communist acceptance would
mean renewed meetings by the
full flve-member truce delegations
for consideration of these other
armistice points:
Exchange OF prisoners: behind
the-lines inspections to make sure
an armistice is observed; and rec
concentrations on eventual with
drawal Of all foreign troops from
Korea.
With a new Allied divisional at
tack in progress on the Western
front and sharp action all along
the line. there was the prospect
that the battle line would change
in the Allied favor if the Commu-
nists did not accept promptly.
Steers Middle Course.
1t seemed probable that the
question Of exchanging prisoners
would inject Communist atrocities
into the armistice talks.
The four point Allied armistice
plan seemed to steer a middle
course between the Communist
insistence on a cease fire now and
the Allied resolve to exert con-
tinued military pressure until
other armistice questions are
settled.
But it by no means ruled out
Allied aerial and naval strikes in
the Communist rear.
The U. N. command acting
spokesman, 1t. Col. Howard S.
Levie, said Communist reaction
to the proposal went much far
ther than we would have ex-
pected."
He said the chief Communist
negotiator, Maj. Gen. Lee Sang
Cho. commented:
I'VE have heard your proposal.
But we have yet to make a full
study of it. I can tell you this
much: Your proposal seems in the
main to be in accordance with
