AT A TIME when Capitol Hill tax
experts are wrestling with a Pre-
sidential request for $16.5 billion
in new taxes, the strange specta-
Gle of a balanced federal budget
suddenly appears.
Not only that, but the govern
ment actually is operating in the
black!
For the current fiscal year which
ends next July 80, receipts now ex
coed expenditures by $4.5 billion.
One year ago, the balance sheet
showed a deficit Of SIS billion So
it would appear that Uncle Sans
checking account is $6 billion bet
ter off than in 1850.
Considering only the month of
March, when income tax payments
always swell receipts, the 1851
federal surplus is $3.4 billion, com
pared with only $1.2 billion one
year ago.
WHAT WILL the ~tax-writing
Ways and Means Committee of
the House do?
1t will have to search for the
answer in several different direc-
tons.
In the first place, it must con
slider the fact that spending for
defense-Which is at the root of
the necessity for more federal in
come-so far has been only about
$13 billion, while the estimate for
the full year, with about three
months to go, was about $21 bill.
lion. Yet, the projected defense
expenditures for the fiscal year
which begins July l are at a mi
nimum of $41 billion.
Why the difference? Defense
contracts are being awarded fast
and furiously, but actual expendi-
lures for them have not reached a
peak-and will not for some time
to come.
In the second place, Mr. Tru-
mans estimates that present rev
enue laws will yield $55 billion
may prove, again, to be too low.
The figures not only for March but
for the fiscal lear to date would
seem to prove the point.
And, finally, it will have to
guess what Congress will do about
eliminating from the proposed ST.
billion budget many of the items
that are non-essential in these
times. Business men and many
members Of Congress believe that
from So billion to 81 billion could
be saved.
Even though the first major test
or two in the House on the broad
, 1951-04-04

road still is a long one Better re-
suits can be anticipated a little
later.
THE PRESIDENT and Secretary
Snyder of the Treasury, while say
ing that $16.5 billion in new taxes
would be necessary to close the
theoretical gap between income
and outgo, asked the Ways and
Means Committee two months ago
to proceed at once with only $40
billion of that total. Mr.. Snyder is
scheduled to go before the Com
mittee early next week to say how
the rest could be produced.
There has been a strong suspi-
cion that the Committee, and Con-
gress, too, for that WATERPROOF
ably would not 60 for more than
So billion to $40 billion in any
event. Excuses are bound to be in
creased or existing items, and the
addition of still other things to the
excise list is quite probable. Indi-
viduals, too, are going to be hit
harder, AS for corporations, some
Increase may have to be approved,
even though the so-called excess
profits tax will drain off an
amount of profits which can not
yet be accurately guaged.
THIS WEEK has been entirely de-
void of action in both the Senate
and House because of the tradi-
tional Easter holiday. The House
is on a ten-day recess and many
members went home to discuss
major legislative problems with
their constituents and friends for
the first time in three months. The
Senate had brief sessions on the
troops-to-Europe, question, but
there was an understanding that
no votes would be taken during
the lull.
NEXT WEEK, however, Congress
will 60 back to work with a ven
geance.
Beginning at 2 pm. Monday, the
Senate will start voting on all of
the issues involved in the history
making question of whether Con-
gress should be consulted if it
should become necessary to send
more than four more divisions of
United States soldiers to Europe.
There will be votes on every ex-
IRENE point of view-and many
points of view in between.
The House will open debate on
long-pending legislation to lower
the present 1~9-year-old draft age
to 1872, and to approve a long
range plan of Universal Military
Training. Opposition seems to
have grown materially to both
steps in the last few weeks among
House members.
And Mr.. Snyder is scheduled to
talk about more taxes before the
House Ways and Means Commit
tee.

Rufus Edwards, general manager
of the Hagerstown Braves, announc-
ed yesterday that Charlie Miller,
the pitcher purchased by the club
during the st. Petersburg winter
meeting has been sold to the Buff
falo Club, of the International
League.
Edwards stated that it was a
straight cash transaction, with no
other players involved.
When l sat down at my typewrit-
er to write this weeks column, l
intended to bang out the usual col
umn-a paragraph, or two about this
and that sport. But somehow, all l
can think about is the miserably
small crowd that turned out for the
twin bill at the ArmOry on Monday
night, when the Gaels and Gaelettes
of st. Mary's High School played
the boys and girls of the Hancock
High School, for the benefit of the
March of Dimes.
st. Mary's won both games and
the few that did attend, besides help
ing fight Polio, saw two well-fought
games that any follower of basket
ball would have enjoyed.
IS
Tonight, also at the Armory, the
March of Dimes Sports Committee,
is putting on another fine basketball
program for the March of Dimes and
I am appealing to all sports follow
ers-as well as lovers of children,
who suffer most from Infantile Pa
ralysis - to make amends for the
poor turnout on Monday night, by
filling the Armory to overlooking
tonight.
The main attraction tonight will
be the game between the Fairchild
Packets and the Fort Myers Coloni-
ais military champions of the Wash
ington, DC. DistricN and that game
alone will be worth more than the
price of a ticket Gone dollar). But
that game is only part of the big
program.
Preceding the main game, the Ha-
gerstown High School quint will
tangle with the team from st. James
School, with the Sapphire Trio from
Beck's Restaurant entertaining be-
tween the halves.
But there's still more.
In between the first and second
games. the Barber Shop Quartet,
from Charles Town, w. Va, will en-
terrain you with several of the num-
bers that have made them so popular
in the Eastern Panhandle of West
Virginia
Then, to wind things up, the Ha-
gerstown High School Dance Band
will take the floor and play for your
dancing pleasure until midnight.
There you are fans. If that isn't
the biggest nights entertainment
ever offered in Hagerstown for just
one buck-with the entire proceeds
going to swell the March of Dimes
fund.- don't know what is. So let's
pack the Armory tonight and help
fight Polio. How about it?

and, of course, smattering of air
conditioning.
What is it for which heating ex-
perts have been searching all this
time since the fall of Rome? To tell
the truth, nobody was doing much
searching at all in the thousand
years Immediately after Rome's
eclipse. The fireplace served quite
well, with all the functions Of the
home being done in, over or in front
of it until the middle of the 18th
century when Benjamin Franklin
invented his stove.
This stove, a very neat invention
at the time, was the forerunner of
the modern warm air plant. It also
was the grand-daddy of all dust
dispensers and dehumidifiers. It
used a large amount of fuel and
gave off a minimum amount of
heat.
DURING THIS TIME, the use of
steam as a heating means also was
evolved, first in England then in
the United States. It's use followed,
naturally enough, the development
of the boiler and the radiator.
Hot water heating had its start
in the chicken coop of one M.
Bonnemain in the France of 1777.
Mr.. Bonnemain used crude hot
water loop to spur the incubation
of chicks. Hot water, off to such a
promising start, did not do well in
competition with steam, however,
until about 1920.
Today's homes are no longer I'M
certain compromises between heat
and dirt, heat and health, and heat
and cold. With radiant panels, or
with radiators recessed or concealed
in walls or baseboards, the full use
of the space of the room is avail
able. The air remains cool and SEN
sibly moist, whatever the room tenn
perature desired.
Proof Of the economy and per-
Torrance Of modern hot water heat
ing is its exclusive use in large de-
velopments like Levittown on Long
Island, perhaps the largest heating
installation in the world. Here,
forced hot water systems supply
heat to the radiant panel floors,
and serve year round by furnishing
the domestic hot water for baths,
kitchens and laundries from the
same boilers that heat the homes.
The perfection of radiant heating
to the installations in general use
today. leaves only one uncertainty
what now in heating? Where to
go, short of atom heat? Home build
ers will have to wait and see, but
whatever it is it will be good.

MODERN HEATING
Dirt-Free Home for the AVERAGE
American Rapidly Approaching

The dawn of the dirt-free, dust
free home for the home owners of
the nation, which will relieve the
average housewife of endless hours
Of drudgery, is rapidly approach
ing.
The building industry reports that
home builders in all parts of the
country are not only installing air
purifying devices to remove dust
particles, but also are concealing
the heating pipes and radiators in
walls, ceilings and floors.
It's far cry from the days of
the 1905 when great-grandfather
first installed central heating sys-
tenn and gave up his attempt to
heat his home with fireplaces.
Today the American home build
or is taking cognizance of old Roman
methods and is using hot water to
heat his house and is burying the
pipes out of sight and sound.
The Greeks may have had a
word for it, but the Romans we're
the ones who pioneered heating
practice. Their fabulous baths at
Pompeii and Caracalla contained
steam rooms, ''hot rooms" and
"cold rooms" all of which pre-
cluded knowledge of the three

EOW UTTERLY FUTILE would
- be any United Nations armed
force in preventing the suppress
ing acts of aggression was amply
demonstrated by the Korean deba-
Gle. 1t was not any lack of ability
on the part of Macarthur that
caused that result; it was not any
lack of valor on the part of United
Nations armed forces - it was the
delay and lack of decision on the
part of an International debating
society. 1t was case of "too many
cooks spelling the broth" 1t could
not change its instructions to its
field commander without debate.
The first instance of the in
ability to decide came when the
United Nations forces reach the
38th parallel. Macarthur had in
structions not to 60 beyond that
line. 1t took better than a week
to get those instructions
changed. That more than a week
of delay gave the North Ko-
reans time to reorganize their
shattered divisions; to get new
arms and munitions from the
Red Chinese army on the Man
churian border.
1t prevented the total destruction
of the North Korean army in North
Korea. The job had to be done all
over again, and before the Man.
churian border was reached. The
next stopping point was the Yalu
river.
Just north of the Yalu river in
Manchuria, vast army of Red Chi
nese was being assembled. Into
its camp was being poured vast
numbers of transport vehicles and
tanks. Great munition dumps were
