ments today. Nor was there
any official word as to the new
debt limit which the admins
tration will propose.
When the conference ended,
House Majority Leader Halleck
told reporters: 1.-The admins
tration leaders briefed us on the
fiscal situation as they see it.
principally coming to the end Of
this calendar year.
ION the basis of that deter
mination, the administration
will recommend the debt limit
be increased. principally because
if it is not increased. borrowing
would have to exceed $275 bill
lion unless the working capi-
tai, which is absolutely essen
tial, be cut too low"
Senator Knowland said no
attempt was made at the White
House meeting to commit
either the Republican leadership
nor the Democrats at today's
session, but that the discussion
was merely laying before them
the fiscal facts of life"
Senator Millikin said: Its
very clear that the President
and the Secretary of the Treas
ury think it is necessary to in
crease the public debt, but they
have put 1t up to us to canvass
opinion"
The biggest money bill of the
year. carrying $34.3 billion for
national defense, meanwhile was
completed and sent to the Presi-

Aside from the debt-ceiling
issue, this leaves only three big
jobs unfinished: l. The last sup
Elemental money bill. carrying
Korean relief and overseas in
formation funds: 2. Settlement
of differences between the two
houses over the immigration bill;
3. A similar conference settle
ment on foreign aid.
Under House rules, the leaders
of that branch could probably
push a new debt-ceiling bill
through in a few days. But IN
the Senate, where debate is un-
limited, the story would be quite
different.
The Senate got a preview
yesterday of the heat a debt
ceiling bill would generate in
that body. After Senator Byrd
had presented his figures on the
debt, Senator Capehart. Repub-
lican, of Indiana and Morse,
the Independent from Oregon,
threw verbal brickbats at one
another over the issue.
Capehart BIames Congress.
Senator Capehart offered no
criticism of Senator Byrd, who,
he said, has made every effort
to reduce the Governments debt
and expenditures. The Indiana
Republican took the line that
members of Congress who for
years have been voting for large
appropriations are responsible
for pushing the debt up close
to the ceiling. He said that the
President, whether it be Mr..
Roosevelt. Mr.. Truman or Gen.
Eisenhower has not had a
nickel to spend except as money
has been appropriated by
Congress"
80 I say that Senators on
both sides of the aisle should
go home tonight and take
good look in the mirror and
they will find who is responsible
for the matter we are discussing
today" Senator Capehart de-
clared.
When he suggested that Sen
ator Morse also has voted to
increase expenditures, he brought

ORANGE, Va, July 30.-At

live to be 100. Yesterday she
made it.
Sitting in her favorite rocker,
near the family radio. the spry
little centenarian listened to
news broadcasts and recordings.
But she recalled episodes of
her early life in Akron, Ohio:
she remembered her mother
taking clothes from a bureau
drawer for a son who planned
to accompany his father to the
Army.
"Oh, my brother was very
young" she explained. HE

Akron and served in the Union
forces. He was William Edwin
Bardsley. who married Miss Abi-
gale Nye White, descendant of
Perigrane White. one of the first
colonists to arrive in America
aboard the Mayflower.
Mrs. Coleman left Ohio in her
middle 20s. to come to Orange

the Treasury would have nearly

expected deficit until Congress
returns in January.
The Virginia Senator said ad-
ministration officials agreed with
most of his figures, except that
they claimed they need a lee

them as saying the cash on hand
now is about $8.5 billion, instead
Of the So billion figure he used
yesterday They also mentioned

In addition to the $8.5 billion
on hand, the Treasury still has
So billion of borrowing power
in the present debt ceiling, max
ing $11.5 billion, and Senator
Byrd said they agreed the deficit
for the next five months will be
about 81 billion.
Chairman Millikin of the Sem
ate Finance Committee said his
group will meet today or tomor-
row with Treasury officials be-
fore deciding whether to proceed
at once on the debt problem.
The crux of the matter seemed
to be whether the Ways and
Means and Finance Committees
believe a bill raising the debt
ceiling could be put through at
this time over the outspoken
opposition of most Senate Dem
ocrats.
The Governments fiscal situ-
alton was reviewed at a two
hour and Is minutes breakfast
session at the White House to-
day.
Decision Up to Congress.
From statements of partici-
pants in the White House con-

the situation emerged:

why it would be next to impoS-

an increase without keeping
Congress in session indefinitely.
The President then left it up
to the congressional leaders to
decide whether or not to try for
the action the administration
feels is necessary.
Before the congressional lead

statement to imply that he had
voted for every proposed in
crease in appropriations. Sena-
tor Morse said the Indiana Re-
publican was not familiar with
the Morse record, and shouted:
Il am going to wrap that rec
ord around the Senator's politi-
cal neck whenever he makes any
such false statement.
There is nothing ! would en-
joy more than to have the rep
resentative Of the Independent
Party try to wrap something

Capehart. IF he tries to do it
in Indiana he will find the peo-
pie Of Indiana have horse sense
and do not fall for hypocrisy"
Capehart Agrees With Byrd.
Although urging his colleagues
not to blame Gen. Eisenhower
and Treasury Secretary Hum
phrey for the present fiscal
situation, Senator Capehart
agreed with Senator Byrd that
the debt liimt should not be
changed now. He said he hoped
the request would not be made.
1T should reduce expenditures
to the point where it will not
be necessary to increase the
debt limit"
Senator Byrd. an authority on
fiscal affairs. touched off the
debate when he gave his analysis
of how the Treasury books now
stand.
Senator Byrd said the Treas
ury recently borrowed $6 bill
lion, as a result of which the
general fund balance is now
SO billion
He estimated expenditures
from August l to January l
will be $29.8 billion. During
that period he estimated Treas
ury receipts would be $22.5 bill
lion, leaving a deficit for the
five months Congress will be
out Of session of approximately
$7.3 billion
1.-The So billion balance in the
general fund of the Treasury
now should be ample to cover
this f1ve-month deficit. and if
not. there will remain SO billion
which may still be borrowed un-
der the existing debt limit, ;"
Senator Byrd continued.
Cites $500 Million Exempt.
He had previously explained
that while the Treasury state
ment places the debt at $272.5
billion. more than $500 million
of this Is not subject to the
debt limitation. For that rea-
son he figured the present debt
at the even figure of $272 bill
lion
Chairman Wolcott Of the
House Banking Committee ad-
vanced an interesting theory
that if Congress has appropri-
ated more money than could
be raised within the present debt
calling. it has already by in
ference raised the ceiling.
Whenever we appropriate
81 1000 more than the debt limit,
we have by implication raised
the debt limit that much" he
said.
He said there are decisions
going back to the common law
to sustain that theory, but he
was not advocating that the
President take that. means of
avoiding action by Congress. He
said he was merely trying to
show that it would be paradox
cal tor any member who voted
for existing appropriations to
vote against raising the debt
limit TO meet them.
