The thrill of being an
American guide at the
Worlds Fair in Brussels al
ready seems like a dream to
Anne Carberry.
But another dream is COM
ing up.
A graduate student at
Georgetown Uniyersity's In
stitute Of Languages and Linz
guistics, Anne is one Of rs
young men and won en-
chosen to serve as guides for
the American National Exhi-
bition in Moscow this sum-
mer.
Her selection was based on
her ability to speak Russian
fiuently rather than her pre-
vious experience in Brussels.
But brunett Anne was able
to pass on some Of her enthu-
siasln TO blond Tatiana Akho-
min. who also will be q guide
in Moscow, when the two met
for the first time to be pho-
tographed together.
Tatiana, q senior at George
Washington University, Is Of
white Russian parentage and
has spoken the language
since early childhood. She
and her mother. Mrs. Vera
Akhonin, live at 5022 Sherrier
place NV. :
Anne. whose home is in Jer-
sey City. is working for a
Masters in Russian at the
/. Institute where she was grad
uated two years ago.
why Russian!
Why did she decide to
study Russian?
Anne said she's often asked
that question-by Russians
as well as Americans.
I'm not sure I really know
the answer. except that ]
thought there would be q
need to understand these
people," she went on. And
in order to do that I felt ]
should know the language"
At the Brussels Fair. Anne
was assigned to the informa-
ton desk at the United States
Pavilion. But, as one of two
Russian speaking guild es
there, she also conducted
Soviet VIPs through the
American exhibits.
The fact that she could
speak their languages seemed
to spread among the Rus
slams, including the Noise
yev dancers who knew her
by sight.
Anne used to give out
copies of America Illu-
strated, ;" RusSian-language
picture magazine published
by the United States Infor-
nation Agency, and that in
terested them, too.
They would come asking
for 'Anya'." Anne recalled.
"Then they would stand
around and smile and I
knew they were waiting for
a copy of the magazine" she
added with a chuckle.
Once an acquaintance had
been established, the Russians
piled the young American
guide with questions.

Soon after I finish this col

in January for 50 and raised
to 81 and then to So in March

In defiance Of President
Eisenhower's prediction Of q

billion to show a hairline sur

the budget would be in the

eminent finishes reviewing
what Congress did on SPEND
ing. and updates its estimates
on tax payments. In Wall
Street, we've been toting UP the
figures by ourselves-and this
is where we come out. =.
Spending In these IL months
will be far above the SIT bill
lion projected by the Presi-
dent in January, as we expect
ed all along.
It'll be up, not primarily be-
cause Congress voted more
spending than the President
asked, but because the cost of
carrying the huge national
debt has increased.
An informed estimate is that
spending in this l2-month
period will be in the $78.5 to
$40 billion range. Simultane-
ously, though, the Governments
income will be far above the
January projection.
It'll be up because the bust
ness boom since mid-1958 has
swelled corporation profits, and
they're paying fatter taxes
tn be up because the boom
has padded individual pay
checks, expanded the number
of jobholders, and all Of us are
paying more taxes.
Income Is Higher

the Governments income ir

be in the $78.5 to $40 billion
range.
1t even could be that Presi.

Treasury Straight-Jacket
Seen as InfiatiOnary

Failure Of Congress to raise
the statutory interest rate
ceiling Of ~ per cent on mar
ketable bonds may force the
Treasury to rely entirely on
short-term financing Of Jess
than five years maturity.
This prediction is made In
the current bond market re-
view from the First National
Bank Of Chicago, which en-
phasizes the inflationary effect
of short-term Treasury financ-
ing due to the tendency Of
isuch issues to make their way
Into commercial bank port
folios.
"Such financing brings about
an increase in the money supply
because the banks pay for
these securities by creating
commercial deposits in favor
of the Treasury" the review
declares. These credits even
tually will flow into demand
balances of individuals and
corporations creating upward
pressures on the prices Of eco
nomic resources and goods.
The review points out the
Treasury will have to raise
around SO billion to pay of
maturing obligations and
around 81 billion of new cash
in remaining 1859 months,
Maturing issues in the next IL
months will approximate $685.

Present market yields on
Treasury bonds are suostanti-
ally above the statutory inter-
est rate ceiling of AZ per cent
on marketable bonds and this
prevents sale of new. issues
