Along the Potomac
to Washington
BY j. Glenn Beall

Budget . . Senate and House ap-
preparation committees have started
to work on the Presidents record
peacetime S85 billion budget. Some
cuts have already been made in COM
mittees. There will probably be fur
Their cuts when these bills reach both
Houses. Already Senator O'Mahoney
(D-Wyo.), chairman of the Joint Com
mittee on the Economic Report has
called for $40 billion cut. Senator
Byrd (D-Va) is convinced at least
So billion can be cut from the budget
Senator Douglas (D-IllD, KEN
(R-Mo.) and Bridges (R-N. H. have
all set goals of reductions. Where to
reduce and how much arc the per-
picking problems. Congress, on re-
ceiving these extremely large Presi-
Dental budgets, has opposed them but
because of lack of detailed knowledge
has not been able to do the job. Per-
haps the solution lies in a recent bill
proposing that Congress be provided
with budget staff whose sole duty
would be to analyze the budget and
prune out all unnecessary eXpendi-
lures.
Taxes Leon KeyscrIing, chair
man of the Presidents Council of
Economic Advisors, comedies that the
United States is nearing "satura-
ton point" in taxes. During the hear
ings on the Independent Offices ap-
preparations, Mr.. Keyscrling stated,
1--WE are certainly approaching the
point where one has to be very care
full about the levying of more taxes"
A study made by the United States
Chamber of Commerce finds that a
person with $500 annual income pays
about 81 of it in taxes; a man earn
ing about $4,000 pays about 1870 in
taxes; $4,000. about $50; $500,
about 49,; and $1l 900, about 43rS.
Income taxes make up less than half
of all taxes paid. 1t is the hidden taxes
such as excise and sales and large
corporation taxes which add to the
tax burden, particularly on the low
and middle income groups.
Farm Incomes The American
farmer will begin to feel the effects
of initiation more keenly in 1862, as
farm income drops behind non-falm
income, according to the Bureau of
Agriculture Economics. Farmers are
starting what may be the highest pro
duction year in the Nations history.
But net incomes after all production
and other expenses are deducted, is
likely to be no higher than last year
and well below the 1917 peak. Income
of the non-farmcr is expected to climb
in 1852
