/. Because a substantial part
Of the $71.8 billion administra-
ton spending figure for next year

already on hand. Some experts
estimate q third Of all the spend
ing, comes from these unexpend-
ed balances.
2. Because Congress sometimes

May Only Cut Carryover
Senator Byrd has pointed out,
therefore, that an undetermined
part Of any overall cut this ses-
sion makes in new appropria-
lions may only reduce balances
| to be carried over into some sub
sequent year. without affecting
expenditures in the coming year.
That is another reason why
the Virginia Senator believes
Congress will have to follow
through for more than one year
to make its budget-cutting ef-
fective.
Chairman Cannon Of the
House Appropriations Commit
tee declined yesterday to esti-
mate how much this session will
have cut from the entire budget
when it adjourns. But he said
1t would be an amount substan-
Itial enough to enable this ses-
sion to approve a tax cut before
1t adjourns.
House Republican Leader Mar
tin Of Massachusetts, said he
thinks there can be substantial
reduction in the budget. but said
he hopes Congress will not cut
to q point that would Impair
the Presidents efforts to main
tain security and peace"
Senator Javits. Republican OF
New York, a strong Eisenhower
supporter, said last night there
has been a dramatic change In
his mail on the budget since
the President spoke last week.
Mail Now $3.50 on Budget
In q radio interview. Senator
Javits said that before the Presi-
dent spoke. mail reaching the
Senators office was overwhelm-
ingly against the budget-on
some days as high as IL to ]
against. Now it is running about
$3.50, the Senator said.
Senator Byrd's prediction that
the administration will try to
present a smaller budget to Con-
gress next January served to re-
call that President Eisenhower
was asked about that possibility
at his last press conference.
The President replied that
Government agencies try to fore
cast budget trends for three OF
four years, and pointed out that
everything has to be watched
this year because Of its influence
on next year. But he concluded
that. whether the next budget
can come down Is going to de-
pend on the state Of the world
and to what extent we can &c,
rid Of programs that are costing
us money.

WORDS, WIT

BY WILLIAM MORRIS

when is a plural not a
plural, Mr.. Morris?" asks a
Waterbury Comm reader.
"Just the other day in a New
York paper I found this head
line: New Blues Is at Jazz Con-
cert. Shouldn't it have read
New Blues Are Born? 1t
seems to me that blue is sim
gular and blues is plural"
In this instance. blues" is
correctly construed an singu-
lar. 1t refers. you see. to one
specific song created on a spe-
cial occasion. You would say,
for example, w. C. Handy's
"Beale Street Blues" is one
of the authentic classics of our
jazz tradition? Note that we
use the singular here because
one song is referred to. How
ever, in speaking of the great
number of blues songs created
by our folk singers and COM
posers. you would say THE
blues have made a great con-
tribution to our musical hertz
age"
The matter Of just where the
term blues" came from is
much in dispute, incidentally.
The most widely held theory is
that it is an abbreviation Of
"blue devils" = Authorizations,
like pink elephants. popularity
believed to accompany delirium
tremens. The mood of acute
depression following an attack
of the dts" would surely be
depressing enough to cause the
means of anguish which may
first have given birth to the
blues.
Who were the first Reds?
Another reader asks the origin
of the term Red" meaning a
Communist or extreme radical.
The red flag has, Of course,
been the symbol of interna-
tional communism for more
than a century but actually the
association of this color with
radical activities goes even fur
ther back. During the French
Revolution the most extreme
partisans of revolt we're known
incredible though this may
sound to Goth century Ameri-
can ears-as Red Republic
cans" During the Terror they
are reported to have dipped
their hands in the blood of be-
headed mobiles, then brandished
them aloft in triumph. Hence
the label red!

"But after the boy, the unit,
and the institution have done
everything they can, there are
still factors lacking to create
a really successful Scouting
program. No Scout can pro
vide training courses to give
his Scoutmaster the skills he
needs or roundtables where
bis leaders can get the best in
current program material.
Few troops can afford an ade-
quately equipped and stated
camp or organize a big inter

"The same interested volun-
teers, who provide SO many of
these services through their
own time and effort, secure
funds for the council budget
either through Boy Scout fin
anc campaigns or through
participation in community
chests. Thus large numbers of
citizens over the council area
have the opportunity to have
a part in supporting this char

the council budget, we know
that we are not engaged in
substituting boys or under

are supporting a program to
help boys to help themselves.

WHO PAYS Q
SCOUTING?
Concluded from yesterday
The Parent Institution

1.-THE institution does have
obligations, of course. One Of
the things no boy or group of
boys, no matter how energetic,
could provide is a home; Sc
cure in the interest and affec-
ton Of a group of sympathe-
tic adults. T h e chartered
institution undertakes to pro-
vide such a home. It agrees to
provide the competent, devot-
ed leadership a successful
unit needs. 1t also agrees to
provide the unit with an ade-
quate meeting place, properly
heated, lighted and furnished.
Thus the institution also con-
tributes to the carrying on of
Scouting through its own
operating budget. 1t can also
help the council financially by
making a contribution to the
council budget either indepen-
IDENTIFY or through the commu-
nifty chest.
