4 WASHINGTON - Cover
ment spending has become one
of the major issues OF the day
especially in Washington where
the members of Congress are
receiving increasing numbers OF
letters from back home asking
. for more economy in govern
ment.
/ Economy IN government i:
always a subject of deep con-
Germ among those VINO are int
crested in public affairs. In re-
cent months, interest has been
unusually high as a result OF
the continuing diSagreements
between President Eisenhower
and Congress over spending.
on repeated occasions the
President has criticized Con-
grcSS for having tendencies &c
spend excessively. At various
times. Congress has been called
q .spcudthrift" and budget
busting Congress.
\ great deal Of this criticism
a,s resulted in honest differ
oGcys of opinion about the val
ue of various Federal programs
.,... .l-.. .......... ,r.,.r.- ., ,,.,, ...

of a great many people to tag
the Dcmocratically controlled
Congress as radical and irres-
ponsible when il comes to hand
ling the taxpayers money.
The facts do not justify any
such conclusion. In fact, the act
ual figures on appropriations
show an entirely different pic
turc.
Since 1858. for example. Con-
greSs has reduced President
Eisenhower budget requests by
$40 billion dollars.
Furthermore, this year alone
Congress has made material re-
auctions in the Presidents bud
get requests. Through last week,
Congress had taken final action
on seven appropriations bills
for the current fiscal year. In
these seven bills, l voted along
with other Senators in reducing
the Presidents requests by a
total of $3.50. 666.880.
1t is true that these reductions
are not as large as many people
would like but they are reduC-
tionS below what the President
himself actually requested.
From time to time. | get let
tiers from people asking me to
follow the Presidents Suggcs-
tons about spending. They say
the President is trying to keep
a harness on the excessive
spcndcrS.
l thoroughly agree that VIC
must make every effort to keep
our spending at a level below
'our income IN order not only
To- attain q balanced budget, but
also 20 start paving of some of
our national debt instead Of in
CTcasing IT,
I also feel that the facts snow
very clearly that Congress has
been at least as careful about
spending as the President, and
IN my opinion. more So.

PLAIN
TALK
CINDY DOESN'T UNDERSTAND

My daughter Cndy doesn't understand this rou-
tine of having to be heavily endowed with finances
before enjoying the finer things in life.
That's why | haven't bothered to explain to her
that folks objected to her being able to swim
ming at the country club pool.
1t didn't surprise me that objections were raised
I've been investing my small pay check in Junior
Chamber of Commerce work and haven't found the
$50 500 it takes to become member Of the country
club set.
OF course Cindy knows aren't members but
you'll have a tough time convincing her that she ism t
a member. Her explanation is Simplify on all aren
members but Aunt Pete Lydia Carroll and are. y
You she considers herself much part OF Aunt
Pete's family she does the HarriSonS
|, personally, don't intend to tell Cindy that she
isn't permitted to go swimming III the pool. But Ia
appreciate it if those who objected would drop by
the house and explain it to her And know that if it
concerned the complaners enough to register oblec-
tons they will be interested enough in humanity to
expend whatever energy necessary to make ClndN
understand why they objected.
stock question when | travel to various parts OF
North Carolina - What kind of people live in Tabor
City? I've heard much about it being place where
everyone welded razors and knives that I'm curious
to really know
| hope that in small measure I'm helping
to correct that wrong impression.

NO ADVANCE NOTICE ON ACCIDENT
Residents who had their water service temporarily
interrupted Thursday We're anxious to know why ad-
vance notice wasn't given that the water would be

Junior" Stevens, the town service manager who

which was quite simply - How do you give advance

The only way they, can defeat

Senators johnson said that
a year ago they were "holler-
ing socialism" at Democratic
proposals for combating the re-
cession. Their new line, he
added, was to divide the Dem
ocrats.
Some Democrats are get
ting sucked in and will con-
tinue to contribute to the com :
fort Of the Republicans. 9ut
the voters are not going to be
misled."
Senator johnson said part OF
the Republican propaganda was
the charge that the Democratic
Congress has resorted to back
door raids on the Treasury by
authorizing PROGRAMS that
would be financed by Treasury
borrowing rather than direct
appropriations.
He said administration Of
ficials concede that the only So
called backdoor@ financing to
become law was requested by
the administration-and repre-
sents a total Of $4.5 billion for

Fund and the World Bank.

door financing that isn't recon-
mended and approved by the
