The Economic Picture

Sooner or later the country win
have TO face the number one ques-
ton concerned WITH the national
budget cutting taxes and reducing
the debt-how much is too much in
The way Of military spending.
The Communist threat has been
so real that hardly any lawmaker
on Capitol Hill has dared demand
that the Defense Department speed
up true unification Of the armed
forces and cut out the vast waste
that obviously goes hand in hand
with duplication, overlapping and d
lack Of unity Of planning
Waste in Defense
The defense Of the country is now
consuming 40 billion dollars Of the
total budget Of approximately Y
billions That's far more than fifty
per cent and if cuts could be made
IN this vast expenditure, without inn
pairing the nations defense. all
sorts Of avenues are opened up
