the administrations current re-
quest for $5.4 billion.
! Sees Revenue Overestimated.
He contended also that the ad-
ministration's estimate of $500
million in revenue from extern
sion of the excess profits tax for
six months was entirely too
high" He recalled that the vast
majority of the more than $50
| witnesses at the hearings since
July l opposed extension. He
noted that advocates of extern
sion were mainly "spokesmen
for the executive department and
representatives of a few such or
ganizationS as the CIO and the
Committee for Economic Devel-
opment.
Asserting that the admins
tratlon failed to make a case,
Mr.. Reed charged: "The admin
istration has taken the position
that the excess profits tax is an
uneconomic and undesirable levy
but because the tax produces
some immediate revenue it
should be retained. This con-
tention is based on the false
philosophy that the end justif1es
the means"

Big ; Demand Reds
List Austrian Terms
By the Assoeia.ed Press

In a blunt message to the
Kremlin, the Big Three have
challenged Russia to say pre-
cisely what sort of treaty of in
dependence it thinks Austria
should have.
The notes from the United
States, Britain and France were
made public by the State De-
partment Friday. In effect,
they said Russia has objected
to the Vests proposed terms and
hence should prove good will"
by laying its terms on the line.
The United States note said
it is nearly 10 years since Aus
tria was promised freedom and
independence and more than
eight years since the end of
World War II afforded oppor-
tunity to fulfill this promise.
'"The conclusion of an Austrian
treaty" it said. "is not a ques-
ton of procedure but rather of
good will"
This was a slap at Soviet AM
bassador Jacob Malik's boycott
of a Big Four meeting in London
last May 81. Mr.. Malik said then
the Austrian treaty considera-
tions should be continued through
diplomatic channels.
The British and French COM
munications were substantially
identical with the United States
note.

Tuft
Continued From First PageO

for cuts ranging upward from
81 billion.
The Ohio Senator, whose all
ment forced his temporary re-
tirement as Senate majority
leader, said that as a member
of the Foreign Relations COM
mittee he had made no effort
within that group to cut the
figure because he did not be-
lieve conditions were right
there"
This was an obvious reference
to the fact that a committee
majority, made up Chairman
Wiley and the Democratic men,
bers, was openly opposed to any
Sizeable reductions in the pro-
gram.
The Foreign Relations group
approved a $5318 billion ceiling
on Mutual Security Administra-
ton fundS-only $158 million
short of administration requests.
Senator Taft was said to feel
that the Appropriations Com
mittee, of which he is not a
member. would take a different
tack. Whereas the Foreign Re-
lations Committee merely set a
ceiling on what could be made
available, the appropriations
group will pass on the actual
amount of money to be provided.
Bridges Sees Big Cuts.
Chairman Bridges Of the Ap-
preparations Committee pre-
dicted substantial" cuts will be
made below the figure that Mr..
Stassen has called a tight pro-
gram"
While the Democrats on the
foreign relations group were al
most unanimous in support of
the administration requests.
there apparently was no such
minority party lineup on the
appropriations group.
Senator McCarran, Democrat,
Of Nevada. for one, said he will
vote to trim the funds heavily.
The appropriations group be-
gins hearings on the program to-
morrow with a report from DR..
James Conant on conditions in
Western GERMANY where he is
u. S. Commissioner.
