the-Union message delivered
personally to a Joint session in
the House Chamber. He said
the administrations budget for
the fiscal year beginning July
would propose expenditures Of
$79.8 billion. His prediction Of
a $4.2 billion surplus indicated
expected revenues of $84 billion.
The figures came as a sur
prise. They were not in the
advance text of the message,
but were inserted by the Pres
ident as he read. They brought
the loudest applause from the
legislators.
In his message the President
also reported that 1860 prom
ises to be the most prosperous
year in Americas history and
was cautiously optimistic on
the course of relations with
Russia.
Mortgage Reduction"
Mr.. Eisenhower said he pre-
ferred to speak of the predicted
surplus as a reduction on "our
children's inherited mortgage"
He said it should save tax
payers about 5000 million in
interest costs on the national
debt. Interest on the nearly
1920 billion debt now is costing
about sos billion a year.
The Presidents prepared text,
distributed few hours in ad-
vance to neWsmen, contained
an estimate of a 5000 million
budget surplus next June 80
for the current fiscal year. 1t
promised a balanced budget for
the 1861 fiscal year, but no
| figures were given.
The latest speculation had
been that the fiscal 1861 budget
would run to about $81 billion.
with a much smaller surplus.
Details of the budget are to
be submitted to Congress in a
separate message from the
President a week from next
Monday.
Warns on Soviet
The President stressed the
Importance of striving in
ceSsantly for guaranteed
peace" and he voiced guarded
hope for an easing of the ten
sionS with Russia. But he
warned against being misled
by Soviet pleasant promises"
until they are tested in action.
He said wiSely-directed effort
in the fast new chronological
age" now opening up with its
capacity for human destruc-
ton" can make poverty and
human misery obsolete"

Says Law Is Clear

Mr.. Gray further quoted the
board as saying that once the
boards decision was announced
engaging further in these acts
should clearly subject a dealer
TO possible adverse action on
his license"
Mr.. Gray said the law was
clear that Just because regula-
tions had not been enforced
there was no reason they should
not be enforced in this case.
The evidence the board re-
ceived regarding the business
conduct of the appellant Qrv
Martin, IncD was amply suffi-
cient to establish that his
license could be denied and
the boards decision could have
been to deny the renewal ap-
plication.
The boards conclusion was
clearly contrary to the settled
law in the District of Colum-
bia. In light of the foregoing.
it is my conclusion that the
decision of the board on the
appeal of Irv Martin. Inc, is
erroneous because it was based
upon a misconception of law
and should not issue" Mr..
GRAY said.
Mr.. Gray passes on the legal
aspect of the boards decisions,
but it is up to the board to de-
eide other issues of the case.

President Eisenhower today
boosted the chances of stronger
civil rights legislation this year,
in the opinion Of close students
Of the subject at the Capitol.
At the same time, the num-
Der Of signatures on a petition
to bring from the House Rules
Committee five-point civil
rights bill grew to about $50
of the 2l9 names needed.
And Senator Hennings, DEM
ocrat of Missouri, without wait
ing for Mr.. EiSenhower's state
of the Union recommended
tionS, announced that hearings
on a proposal for a Federal
voting registrar would De held
by his Rules Committee by the
end of January.
Renews '59 Plea
In discussing civil rights, the
most controversial issue so far
before Congress, Mr.. Eisen-
hover today:
Renewed his 1859 civil rights
recommendations, which were
not acted on last year.
Described as constructive"
the stronger proposals ad-
vanced in August by the Civil
Rights Commission and said he
hoped these also would be
seriously considered" at this
session.
Although Mr.. Eisenhower did
not fatty indorse the COM
mission proposals. one Of which
calls for Federal voting regis
trars. one well-informed Capt.
tol Hill Democrat felt that what
rthe President said would be
enough to help pass the regis
trar plan.
This Democrat reasoned that
liberals in both parties would
interpret what the President
said as boost for the plan,
which is almost certain to be a
highlight Of the civil rights de-
bate.
More Time Wanted
Republican liberals wanted
more time to study the Presi-
dents words. but one of them.
Senator Clifford Case OF New
Jersey, said:
Congress should and will, I
hope, act affirmatively on the
recommendations of the Civil
Rights Commission. Indeed, it
can and should do more to pro-
tect the rights of all Americans
under the law"
Senate Republican Leader
Dirksen commented that the
Presidents references to civil
rights means "he wants an
adequate bill passed.
The six Eisenhower recon-
mendations of 1859, which he
renewed today, would:
Punish use of force of threats
to obstruct court orders in
school desegregation cases;
empower the FBI to inveSti-
gate bombings of schools or
churches: empower the Attor-
ney General to inspect State
election boards; give temporary
financial aid to local agencies
in planning for school desegre-
cation; provide schooling for
members of the armed forces
