Situation Now

Former President Truman esti-
mated in his budget message last
January that we would have to 60
500 billion further into debt next
fiscal year to protect our national
security adequately. The Truman
budget, with which Gen. Eisen-
hover is wrestling now, said we
would have to spend $78.6 billion,
73 per cent Of it to keep us and our
allies strong enough to face down
any enemy. Tax receipts for the
year were estimated at only $6S.7
billion.
Aside from the 73 per cent Of
Mr.. Truman's budget ticketed for
national security, most of the re-
mainder of his spending proposals
are uncuttable. Interest on the
national debt and payments to
veterans consume IA per cent. That
leaves all the rest Of the Govern
ment only IS per cent, or $10.S bill
lion.
Whether we get q tax cut as
well as a balanced budget this
year depends, then, on the spend
ing needs of the two executive de-
partments most concerned with
our national security, Mutual Sc
curity Administration and the De-
Tense Department. Mr.. Truman
advocated turning over SO per cent
Of his recommended expenditures,
or $57.3 billion, to Defense and
MSA. ~
Republicans Check
President Eisenhower's Republ-
cans are now checking up on Mr..
Truman's Democratic figures.
While Budget Director Joseph
Dodge has said he won't be ready
to give his opinions on the Truman
budget until around April /, there
is no doubt that the Eisenhower
administration hopes to make
some pretty drastic cuts.
Here are some points the Re
publicans are thinking about:
Q Foreign aid. There is wide
agreement that cuts up to $4 or
S. billion. can be made here. II
possible, such slashing would take
up half the 500 billion slack in
Mr.. Truman's budget.
Defense Department. The
favorably received recommended
ton for q 10 per cent manpower
cut and SIS billion-a-year saving
sounds like the other half Of the
way to q balanced budget. The
catch is that such economy
couldn't be accomplished In q year.
Secretary Charles E. Wilson him
self just isn't ready to give any
kind OF idea what cuts he thinks
can be made.
. Sale Of assets. Republicans
are toying with the idea Of selling
unconventional Government assets
Evening star., 1953-02-22

The table gives proof that the
American taxpayer has had 1t
worse than he has it today. The
peak load was In 1928, when
the country needed money to fight
Hitler and TOTO. Nor is the Ameri-
can taxpayer as bad on as his
brethren in other countries. Here
are comparative taxes today, for
man with a wife and two chill
dren, in the United States, Canada
and Great Britain.

like synthetic rubber plants, pri-
vate mortgages and miscellaneous
stocks and bonds acquired In vari-
Gus ways through the years. Talk
Is that upward Of 81 billion could
be raised that way.
. Juggling 1858 budget esti-
mates. Republicans are studying
optimistic reports that, contrary
to Mr.. Truman's prediction Of a
$l.9 billion deficit at the end OF
this fiscal year, there actually will
be q 81 to "a billion cash surplus.
Optimistic View
President Eisenhower still dog
gedly refuses to rule out the
possibility OF tax cut this year.
That means he thinks there is at
least an outside chance to find
upward Of the 500 billion in ex-
cess expenditures which the Tru-
man administration couldn't find.
Speaker Martin also seems to-
entertain hopes Of passing a tax
cut. For he has Indicated he wants
the House Ways and Means Com
mites income tax bill bottled up
in the Rules Committee only until
May. If he were sure no reduction
is possible he could have advocated
pigeonholing tax cuts for the rest
of the session.
Senator Taft is the least opti-
mistic Of the Republican Big Three
when it comes to tax cuts. He
stands with the President and the
Speaker against immediate tax
cuts, and goes one step further.
He proposes an extension Of excess
profits taxes to the end Of the
year, or to mid-1954, instead Of
letting them expire next June 80
on schedule. This Is an excellent
example Of the responsible atti-
tude Mr.. Taft has taken since his
own party came into power.

time, necessary expenses have
fallen only 2 per cent. A year ago
the farmer was making los per
cent of q 'fair" income in COM
parison with his costs. Last month,
he was getting only 95 per cent.
The Price Picture
Here Is the price picture for the
major American crops, comparing
the January is, 1868, price to the
farmer with the January is, 1852,
price:

nounced as the income rises. In
the United States, all income over
100000 a year is taxed at 81 per
cent. In Britain the cutoff point
is $4,000 and the remainder Is.
taxed at o7h per cent. The prae-
tical limit Of take-home pay In
Britain Is $16,40O.
This is not to say that the Amer
ican taxpayer shouldn't feel sorry
for himself. It is Just to remind
him that in his misery he can find
company aplenty.

estimated SIS billion in lost reve-
nue.. That would require whiting
the Truman expenditures q stag
gering $11.4 billion, instead Of $9.9
billion, In order to balance the
budget. II Mr.. Taft's scheme to
put of all cuts until the end Of
the year Is finally adopted, 5000
million more revenue would flow
into the Treasury. In that case
the Eisenhower administration
would have to find only 50 billion
worth Of cuts in the Democrats
budget. II the day for all re-
ductions Is set back as far as mid
1854, as Mr.. Taft has also specu-
lated, Gen. Eisenhower would need
only $6.6 billion in cuts out of the
Truman budget.
Reasons Why
Representative Reed Is. we'll
stocked with reasons why his tax
cut-now policy should be adopted.
Here are the ones he talks about:
. It would be a strong inducement
for eliminating unnecessary ex-
penditures.
. Sitting" Of initiative and i'm
peding of business growth would
be stopped. This would be an i'm
portant antidote to the depression
some economists expect in the
wake Of drop in. Government de-
Tense spending.
o The Government does not stand
to lose very much in revenue In the
long run, because revived indi-
vidual initiative viii provide a
broader base Of business activity
to be taxed.
. The people have given Congress
a "clear mandate for tax and ex-
penditure reduction"
. "It Is only fair and just" that
income taxes should be cut as soon
as corporation taxes.
Here are two more reasons Mr..
Reed isn't talking about:
o The House wants to make vot-
Ing record for the folks back home.
The Senate can backstop the Rep
resentatives, and later on In con-
ference the House can be less in-
sistent on reducing taxes.
. The Democrats win take credit
for ending Korean war taxes II the
Republicans don't do something.
Grounds for Discussion
AS can be seen, most Of Mr..
Reeds reasoning Is purely political.
Where he goes into economics he
is stepping In on one side Of the
Oldest unresolved tax arguments in
the free enterprise system. At what
point do taxes stine initiative? Old
guard Republicans, liberal Repubh-
cans, conservative Democrats and
liberal Democrats all have different
answers. Our economy has been
expanding healthily, at the rate Of
4 per cent . year. under what the
Republicans have often termed ex-
cessive taxation. The Democrats
say this Is proof that taxes have
not been too high. The Repubn-
cans say expansion would have
been faster with lower taxes.
