Of most Americans Is whether there will be
another crash such az the country exper-
fenced in 1929.
The best opinion, on this subject, IS
that there will be 10 crash on scale likd
that Of the 1929 crash. Many market men
believe a REIMBURSEMENT in the market If
due and some believe the readjustment has
already been made. but majority Of eco-
monte experts from both schools Of thought
believe that there will be no crash such AS
the nation experienced twenty-siX years
ago
We are inclined to agree. considering
the fact that stocks are not as easily bought
with smal sums Of money today as theN
were in 1929, and taking into consideration
the considerable number OF economic props
built up under the national economy SINCE
1929.
In other words, then, while the stock
market may have readjustment and
while prices Of stocks may fall consider
ably if there is read ustment (and such
readjustment il not expected by many
economists in 1850, there seems To be- a
fair expectation that no stock market crash
is likely this time. This is a comforting
forecast TO all those who remember De
tober 1899

Budget Balance Major Effort

much to blame as the White House.
The conflict over balancing the budget
will center around defense where the Dem
ocrats are inclined to spend more than
some Administration officials, and or
foreign aid-in which field the Democrats
traditionally are more liberal in approprl-
ating funds. The Democrats might also re-
store ninety per cent parity pTlce support
and this might also increase Government
expenses somewhat
On these issues, then defense, foreign
aid, farm and perhaps one or two others
the question Of a balanced budget will turn.
Much has been written on the necessity Tor

we will say that the budget should be bal

Presidential election, it will give him a
strong campaign plank in 1856.

THE Eighty-Fourth Congress is now
underwa. and every voter greets the
Eighty Fourth Congress in the nations his
tory with certain expectations or perhaps
with misRiyings. There are several issues
eure 10 come to the fore in the Eighty
Fourth Congress, and the relationship be-
tween the Republican President and the
Denocratic-controlled legislative branch is
sure to bring about interesting develop
ments.
One Of the things which We think Ger
tain 10 result IN the next two years-the
Eighty Fourth Congress will run through

nearly balanced
There has been much talk, some from
official administration circles, that the
budget cannot be balanced, even for fiscal
l956--the year beginning July LIST. How-
ever. we believe that The Administration
will make II major effort to balance the
budget before the 1856 Presidential cleo

Tax Deadlines

rrHERE is some confusion about tax dead
lines because Of the fact that a ma

the headlines recently. and because OF the
fact that this year citizens will have until
April 18th to file their final tax returns,
rather than March 18th,

lively these changes do not take effect
until payments are made in 1856.
The final classic effort for the bedrag-
gled taxpayer, however, is changed this
year. This last-gasp desperation push
which it is to so many milions-will not be
necessary until midnight Of April 18th

Five priests from these eoun-

es at Sutatenza, designed to
equip them to conduct courses by
radio to rural parishes. In Colom-
