A Senate subcommittee on
air power policy is dealing
with material of vital impor-
lance to the Nation. 1t is
also affording the country a
fresh look at an often
mentioned presidential posi-
bility, Senator Stuart Syming-
ton, functioning in the field
in which he is most expert.
Yet the new hearings got
off to a tame start amid
little public notice. They were
staged in the old Supreme
Court chamber which is small
but there were still vacant
seats when Gems. Omar Brad
ley and Bedell Smith uttered
their warnings against a sec
ond-best Air Force.
1t is unsafe to write off any
congressional hearing before

atty and conflict of interest
are latent explosives that are
always present.
It does seem that the sub
committee is operating at a
time when the country's in
terest is taking other direc-
tons. It will be quite a feat
to bend the subcommittee
material accordingly.
Chairman Symington dis

inquiry but partisan politics is
Just what the country is abb
sorbed in now and will increas-
ingly be. In election years the
target practice gets personal
very quickly and the issues be-
come only handy sticks with
which to beat the other side.
Also the subcommittee in es-
sence wants another big SPEND
ing program. President Eisen-
hover has forestalled them to
a degree with a modest request
for more air defense but a gen.
eral apathy has surrounded
both that request and the
Eisenhower foreign aid bill.
Spending is a bad word in the
foreign and defense fields. It
appears.
A certain lack Of plain old
political savvy was evident too

straight across the board.
On the surface. the figures
would justify a tax cut, but to
do so might actually be fiscally
Instantaneous to the coun-
try. The Federal Reserve
Board at the present time is
trying to head off any more in
flation and is restricting credit.
Tax reductions are usually
voted when business isn't good
and when the country needs
the stimulus of private spend
ing. If anything were to be
done on tax rates. precedent
argues for increases instead of
decreases. This was the doc
trine supported under both
the New Deal of Franklin
Roosevelt and the Fair Deal of
Harry S. Truman.
Since it is the administra-
tons program to keep prices
stabilized and the purchasing
power of the dollar from going
downward, the President would
most certainly veto any tax
reduction bill passed in such
prosperous times as the pres
ent.
But what about the politi-
clans? They will press their
measures. In the past, when
one party has been in control
of Congress and the other
party has had its man in the
White House, the custom has
been to pass measures in the
Senate and House which the
President was expected to veto,
and the political hope was that
the electorate would become
irritated and vote against the
party in power. These bills
have always been called pop
gun" measures because their
sponsors never expected them
to become law but merely

President Eisenhower soon
will find himself up against
another sign-or-veto dilemma,
and this time it will affect
everybody and not just farm
ers. The politicians win be
offering bills to reduce taxes.
and Eisenhower probably will
veto any that are passed.
It's true there's a surplus
coming in the Federal budget
for the fiscal year that ends
June 30 next. 1t will be at
least 81 billion instead of the
forecast of about an eighth
of that sum made last January
in the Presidents message.
The Treasury has experts
who can estimate on the basis
of the way installment pay
fnents are coming in just what
the receipts will be by June 80.
Hence it is pretty we'll assured
now that there'll be a surplus
of at least So billion on the So
called ordinary budget.
In fact the cash" budget.
which is merely a tally of
money received as against
money to be paid out during
this fiscal year. will show more
than 81 billion surplus. The
official forecast last January
on the cash" budget was about
q fourth of that amount. All
these estimates may turn out
on the low side, as the Treas
ury hasn't had a chance yet
to total up the income tax
payments made on Monday of
this week. There are indica-
tions that record totals soon
will be announced.

This move. which will have the

anticipated in this column.
The Soviets are out to break
the alliances forged against
Russia by the West. The place
where these are most vulner-
able is in the Near and Middle
East, the fueling station for 80
per cent of Europe's machines.
Cut off from Middle Eastern
oil, the British economy and
the sterling area would be as
effectively paralyzed as by the
dropping of atom bombs on
the British Isles.
There is not a drop of oil in

partition in the Security Coun-
Gil. Why did it do so, the
Soviets having been anti

Alliances Forged by West Found
Most Vulnerable in This Area

Obyiously-and this column so
analysed at the time-to make
trouble between the West. and
particularly the United States,
and the Arabs.
This trouble has increased
year by year, due to the total
disregard by this country OF
the most basic axioms that
should govern the behavior of
a great power.
If small state is dependent
on a great power for its arms
and. indeed, for its economic
existence, the small state
must consider the interests
of its benefactor. Otherwise
the great power becomes a
puppet of the small state,
forced to share its quarrels
and hostilities and even to
become embroiled in war in
its behalf, against its own
overriding interests.
Never in American history
has a foreign state been so
greatly our beneficiary as Is
rael. In one way or another
America has been substituting
Israel to the tune of $165 per
year for each of its citizens.
But at no time has the
