J tion" mentioned by the President
in his State-of-the- Union message
of a week earlier, that the Federal
Government shall utilize only a
prudent share of the Nations re-
sources, that it shall live within
it's means, carefully measuring a.
gainst needer alternative proposals
for expenditures
Thus, we may wonder just whose
budget it is. But the important fact
is that this staggering tome is to-
day in the hands of Congress
which must shoulder final respon-
sibility to the people for the terri
flying possibilities it presents.
TEN WORDS in the Presidents
massive budget message proposed
an official home for the Vice Presi-
dent. But the recommended "acqui-
sition and maintenance" of such are
unnecessary. Blair House, where
President Truman lived while the
| White House was rebuilt, belongs
to the Government, is being main
tanned for distinguished guests
who would be even more fiattered if
they were house guests of the
Vice President Real nice house,
| too.
Hear This!
"In times like these we don't
usually cut budgets very much"
said speaker Sam Rayburn, with
reference, of course, to the record
breaking s71,S07, 100000 budget
sent 10 to the Capitol by Presi-
dent Eisenhower.
But we hope that Mr.. Sans con-
feres in both houses of Congress
are less cavalier in their consider
alton of a budget that is promised
on a prosperity for the next Is
months even greater than that of
1856, budget that the Secretary
of the Treasury views with alarm.
Further, we would like to remind
the solons of the words of that
free wheeling new National Com
mander of The American Legion.
Dan Daniel. of Danville, Va, on
"the issue of national solvency" He
said:
i" A bankrupt America could
not possibly stop the spread of
Communism. New schools and high
ways can serve no useful purpose
if there is not sufficient private
capital to maintain them. And the
finest armed forces in the WORLD
will be helnless if the economy that
supports them is enfoebled"

Handle With Care

nduulO Wltu OdTt
President Eisenhower sent up to
the Congress the other day the
most remarkable recommended bud
get in the history of this nation.
1t constituted the largest demand
ever made in peacetime. 1t totaled,
on the face of it, $71,8O7 900, ,OOO-
or $416 apiece from every man,
woman, and infant in the U. S.
But Capital observers point out
that social security, special high
way taxes and other odds and ends
not included in the figures wheeled
up the Hill, will boost the collec-
tive obligation of us all to a total
of more than S5 billions!
The Secretary of the Treasury,
who is presumed to have ? good
deal to do with the formulation of
the budget, is unhappy with it. He
told a news conference that the
upward spiral of Government
spending should promptly be
stopped" If terrific" spending and
taxing were not stopped, he said,
II predict that you will have a de-
preston that will curl your hair"
81 think there are lot of places
in this budget that can be cut, "
said Secretary Humphrey, and in
dicated ,e expected cuts would be
made. 81 think we will do so in
the Treasury. he said. But MIR.
Humphrey denied he had been over
ruled in his economy ideas, and
defended the budget as the best
that our planners could do at this
time.
There is no division or difficulty
in the administration at all'', he
said stontly.
So. as has been hinted around the
Capital, Derhans President Eisen-
hover doesn't like it either. Bigger

TOday'S Prices For Bonds

TOday's Prices For Bonds
All bonds are cheaper than they
have been for over 20 years. Buy
almost any today and you should
have an excellent investment. But
by proper selection, with the help
of an investment counselor, you
should be sure to make money
particularly by purchasing selected
non-taxable bonds. Buying good
non-taxable bonds is just like dis
covering gold in your own back
yard. No reader of this column re-
members my ever saying this since
the panic of 1929-1932.

US. and Russia Both Planning
 Arctic Maneuvers

LONDON, R-Naval forces of both the Soviet Union and NATO are scheduled to carry out ma neuvers in arctic waters off Eu- rope this month, but they appar- pently will be operating about 1000 miles apart.
 Moscow radio announced the Soviet war games yesterday in a warning to foreign ships and planes to steer clear of hazard ous" operations in the area. A Defense Ministry statement said the Soviets would take no respon- sibility for damage incurred in the danger zone.
 The Russian operations will be held Sept. 10 to Oct. Is in an area directly north of the Ural Noun tains, centering on the Soviet No vata Zemlya New LanO Islands.
 The islands form an archipela- go of 35,00O square miles between the Parents and Kara Seas. The closest part of Scandinavia is arctic Norway, about 300 miles to the southwest.
 The broadcast said air and na- val maneuvers will be held with different types of modern weap- ons and warned all ships and planes it will be dangerous to enter the waters or the air space of the area.
 North Atlantic Treaty Alliance officials have not pinned down the NATO maneuver area, except to say that it will be north of the North Sea. The NATO exercises will be held Sept. 1928.
 About 85 American ships yes terday sailed from Norfolk, Va, for the maneuvers. Some 300 warships of six NATO nations will take part.

NEARLY 200 DEAD, 700 INJURED IN JAMAICA AS EXCURSION TRAIN PLUNCES OVER BEREAVEMENT

to 2OO.
 Torrential rain hampered the search for additional dead.
 Nearly 700 persons were re- ported injured. About 500 crowd ed the hospitals in Vaudeville, at naerby Spalding and in Kingston. Many were put two to bed. Doc tors and nurses were rushed to the hospitals to work around the clock.
 Most of the victims were young people, between 16 and 30.
 Bodies of the dead lay under. a huge banyan-like tree behind the Vaudeville hospital yard. Bright lights strung on wires burned thruout the night to aid relatives and friends in the task of identi- fication.
 Acting Governor John Stow and Chief Minister Norman Manley hurried to the wreck and ordered an immediate investigation, to be headed by the chief justice of the Supreme Court. There was no immediate ex- planation of the cause of the wreck, altho unconfrmed reports said the first coach which jumped the track had faulty wheels which had been inspected earlier on the trip.
 Early reports said the train was pulled by two diesels which came uncoupled from the follow ing cars. Later, however, it was reported the first passenger coach broke away from two freight cars and the locomotive ahead and hit a culvert.

MANDEVILLE, Jamaica, R- The smell of death hung heavy over this little Caribbean noun tain resort yesterday as burial services were rushed for nearly 200 Jamaicans killed in the wreck of a Roman Catholic excursion train.
 It was one of the worst disas- ters in railroad history. The 12- coach train was packed with nearly 1,500 Roman Catholics re- turning to Kingston from relig- ious pilgrimage and holiday out ing at Montego Bay, on Jamaica's s north coast.
 Nine coaches derailed and plunged over a 100-foot embank- ment near Kendall, five miles from Vaudeville.
 The count of the dead reached 176 last night. The Catholic bish- op of Jamaica, the Most Rev. John J. McEleny of Woburn, Mas sachuSetts, estimated it might rise
