$40 Billion Spending
Means Budget Deficit
Despite Higher Taxes

The Budget Bureau reported to-
day that with Federal expendi-
lures expected to total about $40
billion there will be Sub
stantial budget deficit" in the
1852 fiscal year even with in
creased taxes now in effect.
The bureau did not estimate the
probable deficit but Secretary of
the Treasury Snyder, in a news
conference. placed the figure at
about $7.5 billion.
Silent on Further Rises.
However, Mr.. Snyder refused to
say whether the administration
plans to ask for still more taxes
TO balance the budget when the
S2nd Congress reconvenes in Jan
uary. II have no comment on
that now" the Secretary said.
Under persistent questioning,
Mr.. Snyder said he plans to give
the American people "a mental
rest for a couple of months" from
talk of new taxes. He added it
would be that long before we
even talk about it,"
A little more than two months
from now the President will send
to Congress his annual State of
the Union message and budget
estimates for the 1858 fiscal year
next July !. These messages
usually indicate the administra-
tion's plans in the way of new
taxes and spending.
"Obligational Authority"
The Budget Bureau issued a
statement putting the "obliga-
tional authority" Available to
Government agencies during the
fiscal year at $89 billion. This is
SO billion or about 4 per cent less
than the recommendations of
President Truman to Congress.
"Obligational authority" is not
the same as appropriations. 1t in
cludes all types of new authority
to incur financial obligations on
behalf Of the Government, includ-
ing new appropriations, and such
things as authority to enter into
contracts for which Congress will
be called upon for later appro-
priations.
Supplements Mentioned.
In addition to "contractual au-
thority" now outstanding, the
Budget Bureau said some supple
mental appropriations may be re-
quired. In this connection 1t
mentioned the pay increase for
Government employees and extra
veterans benefits approved by
Congress.
Federal spending of $40 billion
In this fiscal year would compare
with $446 billion in the preceding
fiscal year when there was o
budget surplus of S3.5 billion.

Manners
at
I able
BY Anoelo Potri

When q little child, say one
about fifteen. eighteen months old,
begins to feed himself. he has no
table manners. He Is more than
likely to play with his food. eat
with his fingers. scoop up the milk
or the soup with his hands, maybe
turn the dish upside down on his
head. He has no knowledge Of
adult table manners and win not
have for some time to come.
Some Of this is caused by fa-
tigue. A little child's hands are
not developed sufficiently to allow
him to control the spoon he is to
use and after q few efforts at the
dificult task. he turns from it. To
prevent his making too much of
a mess, start by feeding him. That
leaves only q little food for him to
try his hand on, and he Is not 50
likely to get tired and impatient
and smear food over himself.
Little children are easily wear
led II left alone to struggle with
any activity. Their attention span
is brief. II mother stays nearby
while the baby eats. helps him
with an occasional spoonful. talks
to him casually as she goes about
her duties, he Is not so apt to be-
come bored with his own company
and try to amuse himself by
crowning himself with his bowl.
It is best always to take a child'sI
eating as a matter of course. max
ing mealtime as happy time as
possible. Healthy children will
eat when they are hungry and
that is the best time to feed them
AS they grow older their bodies
set their own rhythms and they
find it easy enough to eat at the
set mealtime. II they ask for
something between times. give
them a small glass Of milk with q
bite Of something simple. But
keep casual about eating.
There should be no pressure on
q child to eat. Once he discovers
that his eating or not eating is q
matter Of concern In the adults
about him. he is likely to use 1t
as means of getting attention.
getting his own way, making q
nuisance Of himself at mealtime.
It also means that no pressure
is to be put on him to eat prop
erly.e BY placing his spoon in his
hand correctly, then letting him
do the best he can without COM
ment, he win, In time, get the
idea.. His table manners will de-
velop as he does and he viii imi-
tate his elders at the table. I'll

spoons correctly. he will. too: III
they sit erect. talk pleasantly be-
tween bites, chew their food asI
they should. use their napkins,
and behave as they would have
the children do, all will go well.
Meanwhile patience. helpfulness.
