Vice President Government Re-

Of general interest.
WASHINGTON - An extra
ordinary 'fback home" demand
for reduction in federal taxation
now rivals the remarkable voter
pressure to lower the $71.8 bill
lion budget.
The growing impatience of
long-suffering taxpayers is re-
Elected in Congressional mail
which also continues to be heav-
lily weighted with economy pres
sure.
So strong is the urge for tax
reduction that some leading
members of Congress-especially
Republicans-expect an irresist-
ible movement to this end next
year.
Among those who want taxes
cut next year are Republican
Leaders Knowland of the Senate
and Martin of the House, and
Senator Bridges, chairman OF
the Republican Policy Commit
tee. There also is demand for
tax reduction among the Demo-
cratic rank and file.
THE BUDGET FIGHT The
powerful House Appropriations
Committee has faltered in the
fight to reduce the federal budg-
ct.
After a reasonably auspicious
start, it came to the bill which
carries funds for the Depart
ments of Labor and Health, Ed
ucation and Welfare.
It recommended $2,981 100000
for these departments reduc-
ton of only $118 million below
budget requests.
Not only that, but fisical ex-
perts said part of the cut was
"phony"-that is, $79 million OF
the amount represented grants
to states for public assistance,
which under existing law must
DE provided if funds are needed
later in the year.
Some economy bloc" leaders
were dismayed. They felt that
the committee-the largest in
the House succumbed to
the big spenders-to the advo-
Gates of the welfare state"
Their big hope is that the bill
will be cut much deeper before
it has cleared both House and
Senate.
THE SENATE rs NEXT-While
the economy battle has been
fought initially in the House,
the Senate soon will be consider
ing huge appropriation bills.
Here such economy leaders as
Senators Byrd of Virginia and
Bridges of New Hampshire pro-
mise a real fight to cut ap-
preparations, thus reversing the
usual Senate trend.
Senator Bridges has suggested
a $3.3 billion saving-and says
he will be disappointed ii the
budgest is not cut SIS billion.
There are, he says, many places
where appropriations can be
trimmed.
Congress, he said, could save
$500, 600, 900 by keeping the pub
lie building program at last
