This sum does not represent I'M

the items in it derive income from

Review Of The Week: $656 Billion Worth Of Austerity

IF THE TWO TERMS ''auSterity"
and 1866 billion" are not contra
dictory, the Budget for Fiscal Year
1856, presented to Congress last
week by President Eisenhower, was
an auStere one.
At any rate, it laid out for the
Federal Government regimen Of
belt-tightening which, the Presi-
dent hopes, will at one time assure
the security Of the Nation and re-
ieve to some extent the burden
on taxpayers.
o It forecast cuts in the armed
serviceS-but cuts which, by shift
ing the emphasis to air power. will
make the Nation stronger rather
than weaker, in the Presidents
opinion.
. It forecast cuts in the civil
service rolls-but cuts sufficiently
small to give hope to Government
workers that attrition, rather than
mass firing, will take care Of the
reduction.
. It forecast cuts in new contract
authority-but took cognizance of
the fact that the Government still
has comfortable backlog of money
with which to pay for goods 1t may
wish to order in the coming year.
The budget was based on three
prime considerations:
/. The "bruSh-fire" kind of war
that skyrocketed costs of Govern
ment in fiscal 1951-53 will not oc-
cur to upset planning.
g. The United States will not
suffer any considerable business
depression
8. The present taxes on corpora
tons and commodities, due to de-
cline on April l, will be extended
by Congress in response to the
Presidents wishes.
If these three considerations
prove correct-and if the President
gets his way with Congress--the
Government will end its fiscal 1855
operations with a deficit of $2,928,-
100000, and a national debt of
$273 billion.
If congre SSional conomizers
swing the broadax, it is possible
that the budget may be balanced
but (accorcIng to the adminiStra-
tom at the expense of vital pro-
grams
And if any one of the Presidents
three basic considerations proves
incorrect-if there is a big or small
war; if there is a depression: if
taxes are not extended-the. whole
Government financial pattern for
the next fiscal year will be so much
scrap paper. Ii
Evening star. [volume] (Washington, D.C.) 1854-1972, 1954-01-24

These funds will strip the Army
of three of it's 20 divisions and the
Navy of rs vessels Cincluding five
warshirs, enc of which will be
battleship) It will, on the other
hand, accelerate the Air Force
buildup to 1877 wings three years
hence, ant will provide 900 new
planes for that service
The accent in the au, as might
be expected, will be on jets Thus,
the Navy will lose about 100 air
craft in the next year, but will in
crease it's jet force, and hence It's
striking power.
From the point of view of man.
power the Army, Navy and Ma
rines will decline, and the Air
Force will grow. Here is how this
picture shapes up between now and
the. end of fiscal 1855.

a course between those two legend
airy navigation hazards, Scylta and
Charybdis
The rock and the whirlpool, in
this case, were inadequate revenues
and repressive taxation Given the
basic assumption that all the pro-
grams he outlined are neceSs 4ry
to the general welfare, it is evident
that he could do one of four
things:
l. He could advocate new tax
rates high enough to pay all the
costs of Government, thereby as
surfing a balanced budger--and
thereby also making great many
taxpayers very angry.
2. He. could advocate tpat cur
rently scheduled tax cuts 60 into
effect on time meanwhile demand
ing his full program. thereby Great
ing large deficit,
8. He could scuttle some of his
programs in the interest of bal
anced budget, thereby DONG the
general welfare disservice.
4. He could oppose new, higher
tax rates, and advocate retention
of present rates beyond expiration
schedules, meanwhile standing pat
on his administration program,
thereby minimizing tax hardships
and keeping the deficit down to a
relatively small size.
The President chose the fourth
course. But at the same time he
asked Is tax law changes, most of
which would relieve individuals
and corporations now suffering
either injustice, or hardship, or
both. These reductions, it is esti-
mated, would cost the Government
$1.3 billion in revenue in 1855 and
So billion thereafter.
Outlook Postponement
The bulk of the Presidents tax
relief proposals was sufficiently
controversial to presage co,.-
gressional spproval-especially in
view of the fact that tax-cutting
is popular on the Hill in an cleo
ton year.
But the reverse of tax-cutting is
never fun Tor election legislators
And the, reverse of tax-cutting was
precisely what the President was
asking in the matter of corporation
and excise taxes.
The excess profits tax, which laid
on certain corporations an addi-
tional 80 per cent levy above the
So per cent normal tax and surtax
died with the old year. Scheduled
for reduction in April was the cor
poration Surtax rate. which now
stands at q per cent and is SEIZED
uled to drop to % per cent: making
the total corporation tax there
after Al per cent instead of SO.
Gen. Eisenhower wants the So per
cent rate retained as a revenue
getting measure.
Also slateo for reduction in April
are excise Tor sales taxes on
number of commodities including
liquor, cigarettes, automobiles and
gasoline. The President wants
these levies continued at present
rates.
His all-but- balanced budget de-
ponds Ia good measure on these

sustained levies. If Congress does
the generous thing and votes tax
relief where the President> has
recommended it but refuses to ex-
tend corporate and excise levles as
he has asked, the administrations
budgetary position would be men
aced.

The Budget

Presiden Eisenhower's most
massive literary work to date, "The
Budget of the United States Gov
eminent for the Fiscal Year End
ing June 80, 1885," was longer and
heavier than last years Harry Tru-
man swan song: 1920 pages, S
pounds ounces, versus 1928 pages,
4 pounds II ounces. But it called
for smaller appropriations in the
coming year than Mr. Truman's
did for fiscal 1854: $685. billion
against $78.6 billion, and projected
a far smaller deficit-$29 billion
against 500 billion.
Neither, however, yields to tue
other in completely, for any budget
of the United States Government
is almost infinitely complex. All
the totals check, however, and all
the figures balance, provided terms
are properly defined and the def
nitionS are understood
When ar appropriations
budget" is being discussed-that Is,
when one is referring to money
Congress will be asked to appro-
pirate in the coming fiscal year
the correct figure is $685. billion.
But if a cash budget" is under
discussion that is, the arlount of
money that will change hands in
the year III furtherance of Gov
eminent programs - the proper
amount is $76.7 billion.
Since there are number OF
"public enterprise" funds like
postal receipts plus large sum of
money that does not go into the
general fund, the more usual way
to refer to the budget is as an
appropriations document of $685.
billions.

Sources and Purposes
To Americans who are even now
starting to think about their
March Is income tax return, it will
come as no surprise that the big
gest single share of Government
revenue next year will be contrib
uted by individuals. The income
tax, it is expected, will bring in AZ
per cent of the total. An equal
amount will come from corporation
and excise taxes. Roughly FIVE
sixthS of all receipts, then, will be
derived from these three sources.
The rest will come from employ
ment taxes (the great bulk of
which go into special accounts),
estate and gift levies, customs and
dribs and drabs from other sources.
Nearly go per cent of all expend-
itures-and about So per cent of
