The bishop. in speeches and SER

WASHINGTON IN - AdminiStra-
ton leaders appeared to be back
ing away today from any immedi-
ate increase in the federal debt
limit and Sen. Byrd tD.Val said
this may force President Eisen-
hover to make sharp spending
cuts.
Byrd, who has been consulting
with administration fiscal leaders,
said in an interview he has made
lit clear to them he would oppose
any effort in this session of Con-
gress to raise the present 275 bill
lion dollar debt ceiling.
IF the debt limit isn't raised,
the administration soon will be
compelled to cut spending below
the level that Congress has APP
proved" Byrd said. "The Presi-
dent has power TO restrict expen.
ditures on a quarterly basis and II
the limit is reached, it viii have
to be done"
The national debt now stands
only $2,6SS, 900 900 belowlthe statu-
tory limit, but Byrd said he thinks
the Treasury probably win be able
to get by until January without
reaching or raising the ceiling.
However, he said that unless the
President takes some drastic ac-
ton to cut expenditures, they viii
reach "a billion dollars in the cur
rent fiscal year and produce the
no billion dollar deficit Byrd al.
ready has forecast.
Congress cannot do anything
effective about slowing down these
expenditures because the depart
ments have a carry-Oyer of so bill,
lion dollars in funds already ap-
propriated," Byrd said. The eff
forts it Is making now to cut ap-
preparations viii no. be felt until
next year or later.
The Appropriations Committees
have done the best job ! have
ever seen, but the only way that
spending can be cut effectively is
/ for the President to do it.
The Virginia senator said he re-
CARDS it as unfortunate that the
/ Eisenhower administration has not
changed the system, in vogue
under the former Truman admin
istration, by which Congress IS
asked to appropriate for two or
three years ahead. The argument
has been that only in that way can
the administration plan in advance
its purchases Of such things as
military items which take years
Il 10 manufacture.
There is going to be q carry
Rover of another 50 billion dollars
in appropriated funds next July I,
just as large as the Truman carry
oyer," Byrd said. These carry
overs have caused Congress to lose
control Of the budget"
Instead of making direct appro-
priations in advance, Byrd said, he
thinks Congress should return to
the system it used Up until few
years ago Of granting contract au-
