The 1860 Federal budget will

This has been a two-to-one

that it would approve increases
in gas taxes, postal rates, etc.
Now, with Congress refusing

President F. P. Rawlings, jr.,

While subscription charges

Dangers Are Cited


Obviously, the second res
ponse would be intolerable; it
would help create the very in
flationary runaway so deeply
feared. There are also inherent
dangers in the first response.

assurances. Or if you did &C
cept them, you might begin to

| future date when the imitation
threat might be highest, you
might Just refuse to listen.
This is no casual. carping
essay on the budget. In the
hope of offsetting some of the
exaggerations, here are a few
hard points:
The 1860 budget will show a
deficit, and the COP will enter
the next presidential election
with a record of six years of
unbalanced budgets during the
eight of the Eisenhower Ad-
ministration;
A higher than estimated
take from corporation taxes is
likely to hold down the next
deficit to a fairly moderate
figure;
A gently rising price level
would be the long-term outlook
with balanced budget, as well
as without it.

LONDON, July 30 APP
The Conservative governments

as expected to fight of a La

But opposition papers and one
Conservative journal kept UP
their criticism today.
The House voted on the re-
port Of an independent judi
cial commission, headed by Sil
Patrick Devlin, on the govern
ment's handling of African Ma
tionalist violence last March In
Nyasaland, a British pretec-
torate and part Of the Central

fired. BY the same token, Mr.,
Tubman insists that the ma
tive peoples work to raise their
own standard of living and
productivity.
The fact of the unification
program, of course, is not as
pretty as the theory. Too often
it has meant only lavish enter
tainment of the chiefs, not bet
terment of the lot Of the people
Social prejudiceS still exist and
will for some time to come,
Still, rights and opportunities
have been extended to the peo-
pie of the interior which, mod
est though they are, would have
been unthinkable 20 years ago.
This social program which,
incidentally, has created ire
mendous political support for
Mr.. Tubman in the interior,
may we'll be the greatest monu-
ment to the presidents admin
istration.
Open-Door Economy
But no less far-reaching in
effect has been his open door
economic policy. BY cementing
Liberian-American relations and
creating favorable terms for
investment capital, Mr.. Tub
man has seen American invest
ment in Liberia swell from So
million to SOS million. At the
same time, Liberals annual
revenue has increased from
10000 to more than $40 mil
lion. Some say that Liberia
would have progressed without
Mr.. Tubman and they probably
are right. But it is doubtful il
the country would have gone as
fast and as far as it has under
him.
