have predicted the President
will submit a balanced budget.
But unless Congress goes

The 1857 session claimed q

that was before the Russian
Sputniks were launched. and
the new session may find it

Of last years cuts.
For example, the last session

new defense appropriation for
the current year. But on his

And the decision might play
into Soviet hands by stigmatiz-

In any future war. The West

Moreover. as President Eisen-

Nehru Position Cited
Washington does. however,
have a principal voice in de-
Gliding whether TO accept the
Kremlin proposal for a naked"
suspension Of nuclear weapons

clear weapons production.
Those who favor separating
the nuclear test issue from the

they include Mr.. Stassen-
agree with Indian Prime Min
lister Nehru that this would be
a concrete agreement on which
the world atmosphere could be
improved.
Chances for further agree
ment with the Soviet Union
would thus be enhanced.
Moreover. there are those in
the administration who believe
that widespread political pres

in Western Europe and in the
United States--demands some
such gesture from the United
States.
