Balancing Of Budget
And Tax Cuts Seen
Possible by Carlson

Senator Carlson, Republican,
Of Kansas told the Senate today
that with careful pairing of Fed
eral expenditures it should be
possible to both balance the
budget and cut taxes this year.
Senator Carlson, a close friend
and adviser of President Eisen-
hover. apparently disagreed with
the official administration posi-
tion that achieving both objec-
titves may be extremely difficult
If not impossible in the current
session Of Congress. But he did
support the Presidents conten-
ton that budget-balancing must
come first,
$66.1 Billion Limit.
The Senator, an expert on tax
alton during his service on the
Ways and Means Committee
when he was a member of the
House several years ago, told the
Senate that Government spend
ing for fiscal 1858 should not
exceed $66.1 billion-the total
amount of expenditures in the
last full fiscal year of the Tru-
man administration.
He did not enter the tax re-
duction controversy which has
been created in the House by
Chairman Reed of the Ways and
Means Committee. Mr.. Reed is
insisting that a quick tax reduc-
tlon bill be passed Immediately.
eliminating an II per cent in
come levy which is scheduled to
expire on June 80 along with the
excess profits tax on corpora
tionS
Senator Carlson first advanced
this program of tax reduction
before the Eisenhower admins
tratlon took over. He said the
rate of Federal expenditures
already is being reduced under
the Eisenhower regime. He
PORTED out during the first six
months of the present fiscal year
that ends next June 80 the an
nual rate Of Federal expenditure
was $73 billion. During the
month Of January. 1858, the rate
was $688 billion.
Economy Felt.
1T would appear" continued
Senator Carlson, that the mere
coming into Office on the present
administration, with it's known
purpose of reducing expenditures,
has already been felt in the first
month Of its experience"
Senator Carlson approved the
directive issued by Budget Direc-
tor Dodge, with the approval of
the President, looking to sub
stantial revision in the budget
OF the Truman administration.
He said that this directive, going
to all agency heads in the execu-
tive branch of the Government,
urged a reduced level of ex-
penditures and critical examina-
ton OF existing programs, a gen.
eral drive for greater efficiency
and reduced costs.
President Truman, in submit
ting his budgets for the fiscal
years ending June 80, 1853 and
1884" said Senator Carlson,
submitted an estimate for ex-
penditures in 1853 of $74.6 bill
lion and estimated receipts OF
$68.7 billion. leaving a def1cit of
$50 billion. For the year 1854
President Truman estimated ex-
penditures of $78.6 billion with
receipts of $68.7 billion and a
deficit on June 30, 1854, of $9.9
billion.
Notes Sharp Increase.
"1t is interesting to note the
sharp increase in Mr.. Truman's
estimates for 1853 over the ac-
tual expenditures for 1852,
namely, an increase of $8.5 bill
lion. The increase for 1854 over
1858 is 81 billion, and the in
crease in fiscal 1854 over fiscal
1852 is $12.5 billion.
Regardless of the swollen

budget that the previous admin
istration attempted for fiscal
1858, we should bring the, total
spending to a figure not exceed
ing $66.1 billion. This calls for
readjuStments and cutbacks. but
the people expect it of us. The
budget for fiscal 1854 will be
entirely in our hands, and our
goal should be lower figure
than Mr.. Truman's biggest year
Of spending.
1--WE have a mandate to ignore
the astronomical estimate of ex-
penditures bequeathed us by the
former administration. We can
discharge that mandate and
start lifting the excessive bur-
den of taxation from the backs
Of the American people, if we
have the determination. A
spending ceiling for the current
year Of not more than $66 billion
and a budget of something less
than that in fiscal 1854 is the
answer. The way to put our
Federal finances in order is to
start now"

Good Storage Saves Time
that's what Kent County Home
Demonstration Club members are
discovering at their october and
November meetings.
If you have good storage in your
home, you have tools for one task
stored near each other; and items
which you use frequently are cas-
lily reached. How do you rate !?
When you make a cake or start to
iron, do you have to make several
trips to collect the items you need !?
Are your favorite skillets stored in
the back of a low cabinet? Take
time out to think through your
storage problems, and reorganize
with reasons for storing your tools
in specific places.
A lack of storage space is a
major problem in many homes.
One solution is to add shelves to
your existing cabinets. Why should
you have eight inches of space
above a small stack of dishes !?
Add another shelf (leaving one and
a half to two inches of extra space
for easy handlingD and double
your storage space.
You can also increase your stor-
age space by utilizing the space on
doors of cabinets and closets. Many
people have shoe bags on racks on
closet doors. Why not put chelves
or racks for small items on the
door of your kitchen cabinet?
Here is a suggestion which help
ed Mrs. Elmer Poynter, of FELTON,,
with her storage problems. 1t may
help you, if you have convention
al dining room suit, and would like
more room in your dining room:
Cut the legs off your China Closet,
then saw the legs off your buffet,
leaving them about 4 inches from
floor. Put rollers or casters back
on each leg. Then place china
closet on to pof buffet, and screw
tightly together. You still have
the top for dishes and bottom for
linens etc., and this will give you
one extra wall space.
These are only few of the ideas
which are being discussed by the
Home Demonstration Clubs. If you
are not member of a Home DEM
onstration Club, I will be glad to
send you the bulletins which are
being used at these meetings. They
include many easy-to-make sug-
gestions for improving your stor-
age facilities, The address is.

cut production everywhere - with
help from the so-called state con-
servation commissions.
With what these big oil firms make
from crude oil-Standard Oil of Cali
fornia revealed this summer that ii
costs them sc to produce and mar
ket barrel of crude oil that they sold
for $2.9O-they can break-even as
refiner, or even lose little money.
SO they're not intent on keeping gas
oline prices up. They're willing to
see them slide. 1t may squeeze some
of their small competitors out of bust
ness.
All coop refineries are in this
small-competitor class. Few of them
own as much as 800 of the crude oil
they need to run their refineries. Lar
gest of the coop refiners, Consum-
ers Cooperative Association, owned
only 21% of the crude oil its plants
used in 1951-52. When you buy 9th
er peoples crude oil at a high price
and sell all your gasoline at a low
price, it's easy to run in the red.
II. M. Robineau, Frontier Rein
ing Company's president, speaking
in Cheyenne September II, probably
spoke for most independent refin-
ers. Can Independent refiner is one
who doesn't own enough crude oil to
be Independent of the major oil COM

pay 14c more a gallon for gasoline
to properly reimburse refiners. But

FARM MACHINERY MAKERS
Need FRILLS TO SPARK
VOLUME OF SALES

CHICAGO -(CNS)- Men have
known for a long time that dress de-
signers changed the fashions just so
their wives would have to buy new
outfits. Now they can wonder the
same thing about farm machinery.
John L. Mccartney, Information
al Harvester president, told the Farm
Equipment Institute here, September
10, how to get the industry out of
the doldrums. "To sell machines"
he said, well have to develop prod
ucts that will outdate the equipment
now on farms before their normal
life span runs out" Farmers, he
said, are "fairly well supplied"
McCaffrey said all the cotton pick
ers,. 800 of the hay balers, 77@6 Of
the corn pickers, 72% of the tractors,
and 61% of the combines were post
war machines with 1915 years of
usefulness. eff these figures are
conclusive answer to whether the
farmer needs more equipment, the
next several years will be very poor
for u.s."
So tractors may have radios in
1854, TV in '55, and air condition
ing in '56-just to keep sales NOV
ing.

SECOND APPEAL BRIEF FILED I'm THE DRYMAN-

the charge from murder in the
first degree by the premeditated and
deliberate killing and murder of the
victim to charge of murder in the
first degree in the preparation of a
felony, to wit: robbery. {.
There was no robbery proved by the
State, and no attempt by the State
to prove that there was any robbery,
or to submit evidence on the various
elements of that crime. ="
About the decision that Dryman is
guilty of murder in the first degree
Dryman's attorney has this to say:
"In order to return verdict of gull
ty of murder in the first degree, it
was necessary for the jury to have
found that the murder had been COM
mitted with reconciliation and DELHI
Grafton on the part of the defendant.
The testimony of DR.. Holmes and
DR.. Ruona for the defense established
clearly his insanity, his inability to
distinguish between right and wrong,
the absolute defect, weakness or dis
ease of his mind, rendering him incap
able of entertaining the criminal in
tent constituting one of of the ele-
ments of the crime, and the fact that
he was SO far deprived of volition or
self-control by the overwhelming vio-
lence of mental disease that he was
not capable Of voluntary action and
not able to choose the right
and avoid the wrong.
The appeal on this case originally
set to be heard in the high court Oc-
tober has been delayed to allow
the State time to prepare an answer
ing brief and will be heard early on
the next calendar of the State Su-
preme Court.

Private owners can't afford to
maintain such excess refinery ca
pacity without using it, Scott ex-
planned. Yet to use it "is self-destruc-

refineries."
