the President with Mr.. Adams

To Accompany Adams
Mr.. Hagerty announced that
Secretary Humphrey would &C.
company Mr.. Adams on a flight
due In Denver about noon MIST
Saturday.
He aid the plan is for Mr.
Humphrey to see the President
sometime Saturday afternoon. HI
professed not to know what sub
jects would be up for discussion
But it is not hard to guess that
Mr.. Eisenhower would be inter
ested in his Treasury Secretary's
latest ideas on the chances OF
achieving a balanced budget
next year.
Prospects for attaining that
goal appear pretty slim. Late
last month, Secretary Of Defense
Wilson announced that his de-
partment would be unable to
come up with the 81 billion in
savings which Secretary Humph-
rey had hoped would be forth
coming to balance the budget.
The prospective deficit for this
fiscal year thus remains at about
$1,75o. 900. 900
