net benefit to each family in
actual tax savings of only
about $40 or $50. While there
are many needy families to
which such a saving might ap-
peal. there are many millions
Of voters who could be injured
by the unbalancing of the
Federal budget by $2.4 billion.
For such a deficit would be
taken as a signal that infia-
ton has come back to plague
the entire economy. Prices
would begin to rise. and far
more than $50 per taxpayer
would have to be paid out to
meet the higher costs of things
bought in the market place.
Imitation is the disease
which today threatens the
economy of the whole world.
European nations are strug-
Cling against it. particularly
Great Britain. and some prog
reSs is being made in the bat
tie. But if America turns to in
flation, serious consequences
will ensue in the trade be-
tween nations. The cost Of
things bought by Europeans
from America would naturally
rise. Eventually purchases by
foreign nations would be cur
tailed, and unemployment
might begin to show itself in
various industries in this
country.
1t is scarcely conceivable
that the Democratic leader
ship will wish to take the re-
sponSibility for starting an
other wave of imitation. What
is more likely is that there will
be pressure for various tax
reduction bills to be passed,
with the hope that a presi-
dental veto will kill the idea
itself and place on the Repub-
licans the blame for refusing
tax reduction. This type Of
pop gun" measure is a de-
vice frequently used in con-
gressional politics. But 1t Is

DAVID LAWRENCE

viii Congress vote to bor-
row money to pay for q reduc-
ton in taxes?
This is the biggest question
that the. 1856 session may
have to answer unless there's
a windfall IN tax receipts and
a sudden lessening Of inter-
national tension. so as to per-
NIT a curtailment Of arms
spending.
Politically, it isn't in the
cards for members Of Congress
in prosperous times to vote
for a tax reduction in dis
regard of the fact that there
isn't enough revenue being
taken in to Offset it. The de-
mand for tax reduction is
strongest when there's a de-
preston or recession. and the
reason given is that it assists
in creating purchasing power.
This was the point made by
Democratic leaders early in
1854, when attention was be-
ing called to a rise in unem-
ployment figures. which has
since subsidized.
Throughout the Truman adj
ministration, the favorite ar
gument against tax reduction
was that in good times the
budget must be balanced.
Hence, it is certain that the
Democratic Party in Congress
is going to divide on the issue,
as will the Republicans. A ma
jority in both Houses against
tax reduction would, there
fore, be the result of a coali-
ton of responsible members
voting against an irrespon-
sible group.
Some idea Of the dangers
involved in careless handling
Of the tax-reduction question
can be gained by noting that,
to increase the individual per-
sonal exemption from $500 to
500 would cost the Treasury
about $2.4 billion q year in
revenue. Yet the increase in

broken down in important in
stances.
They have an obvious take
of in the Eisenhower choice
Of former Representative Wes-
ley D'Ewart as Assistant Sec
rotary Of Interior for Land
Management. D'Ewart was the
author In 1858 of an abortive
stockman's grazing act which
would have given a select
group of ranchers perpetual
rights in the public domain.
Western newspapers led the
fight on it as infamous and it
failed to pass.
Interior Secretary Mckay
assailed 1t too but when Eisen-
hover initiated D'Ewart's ap-
pointment from his hospital
bed in Denver, Mckay praised
~ EWaft as man OF very,

mittee will hold hearings which
can be expected to FURNISH
anew the "giveaway" cry by
which Democrats seek to win

the lush routes and subsidies

charge of inspection and safety

recent appointments.

place. Senator Monroney Of
Oklahoma charges that Lee
was punished for his advocacy
of expansion of aviation and
bigger and better airports by
the railroad-minded Secretary
of Commerce, Sinclair Weeks.
Monroney will explore both the
appointment and a contro-
versial transportation report
which Weeks is translating in
to legislation.
In the Civil Aeronautics
Board. Commissioner Josh Lee,
a former Democrat Senator,

named in his place. This kicks
of a situation which has long
irked Democrats.
BY law the regulatory agen-
cies are bipartisan. Democrats
contend that when the terms
of Democrats on them expire,
Eisenhower has invariably re-
placed them with Eisenhower
Democrats whose admitted
leanings make it absurd to con-
slider that they represent the
opposition party. They believe
1t is the case with Minetti and
with a rather substantial list
OF others which they expect to
introduce at the Minetti hear
ings.
Democrats have also checked
and find that Eisenhower has
not reappointed a single COM
missioner named by a Demo-
cratic President to the eight
principal independent agencies.
This breaks with long ira
dition Of reappointing members
so as to achieve a stability and
continuity Of operation.

Health insurance is expected
to become live issue in the
session of Congress beginning
next week-as 1t has become
increasingly so with the public
and with more chance Of
effective legislative action than
hitherto.
Prospects are brighter, in
part, because of the initiative
taken by Marion B. Folsom,
Secretary of Health, Educa-
ton and Welfare. He con-
templates much broader Fed
eral Government encourage
ment for expansion of private
voluntary group insurance
plans than was recommended
by his predecessor, Mrs. Oveta
Culp Hobby. and submitted to
the Republican 83d Congress
by President Eisenhower.
Secretary Folsom long has
interested himself in health
insurance and has made ex-
tensive personal research into
its development, originally for
Eastman Kodak Company
with which he was connected
for so many years. Since he
assumed direction Of the De-
partment Of Health. Education
and Welfare be has pursued
the subject In discussions with
many persons. including Of
ficials Of private insurance
companies and members Of
the social security committee
of the AFL-CIO with whom
he talked during the recent
New York convention, which
he addressed.
He and department experts
now are drafting o program
for submission to Congress by
the President in a special
message. It will 60 beyond

Foreign Aid in an Election Year

stituents as opposing further
giveaways to foreign countries
which are at least as well of
as America. On the other
hand. they will be loath to
lose the White House support
in the coming election.
A typical example Of this
kind of predicament was Of
fered last summer by the
fighting Republican Senator
from Illinois. Everett Dirksen.
He had established a record
in the past as an opponent OF
draining the Treasury for the
benefit of nations which are
more than self-supporting. He
took a trip abroad last May.
and must have seen the same
signs of we'll being in most Of
the countries he had visited
as his other colleagues. When
he returned the question OF
restoring $500 million to the
FOA cut by the House was
being debated on the Senate
floor.
To the amazement of all
who had known his past
strong views Senator Dirksen
spoke in favor of restoring the
half a billion to the organiza-
ton. then headed by Harold
Stassen, and voted accord
ingly. The unkind but logical
explanation of his actions was
that he did not want to
antagonize the White House,
whose help he would need in
his 1856 senatorial campaign.
Despite this kind of politics
it is expected that a sizeable
number of Republican men,
bers of the Senate-fewer in,
the House-will join the
Democrats in voting down the
increased foreign aid planned
at present by the Executive.
