People who despair of ever
hearing money discussed with
out emotion owe it to them
selves to attend a budget brief
ing by Treasury Secretary
Robert B. Anderson.
There was no passion spent
in the suavely paneled, dis
creetly lit conference room last
Saturday as Mr.. Anderson ex-
planned where your money and
mine will go in the coming
fiscal year
Mr.. Anderson speaks of a
hundred billion dollars like it
was nothing-or at least only
money. Listening to him, it is
hard to believe that anyone was
ever cut down or cut dead over
a SO loan or that it is impossible
to mention the price of eggs in
some households without &C
companying temper, tensions
and tears.
Mr.. Anderson is a tall, hol-
low checked, silver haired

you actually cut taxes depends
not only on where you have
been but where you expect to
be-"
Some people who hadn't a
clue where they were got a
powerful impression that they
had gotten nowhere.
The questions and answers
were soon on a rising spiral of
complication. Mr. Anderson
spoke thoughtfully of giving
adequate attention to obsoles-
cence" which some of his
hearers had though more a
matter for Elizabeth Arden.
They reached peak when
someone asked about develop
mental programs contributing
to an adverse balance of pay
ments" and Mr., Anderson, in a
rare burst of simplicity, said:

again of "a subsequent liber-
alization of depreciation" and
finally he conf1ded his dream:

nodded wisely at this. and

session of his four pound
budget.
The first thing that came
clear was that Mr.. Anderson is
one member of the Eisenhower
team who has a low interest
rate in politics.
Someone, for instance, asked
him about the 1857 "depres-
sion." a word that makes all
other Republicans recoil in
horror and protest.
Mr.. Anderson not only failed
to finch when he heard the
word, he used it himself in
answering the question.
Then there was the subject
of a possible tax cut, a delicious
one in a campaign year. Did
Mr.. Anderson agree with
Budget Director Stans that just

could happen?

the current request captured
attention on Capitol Hill for
three primary reasons.
First, it was the Presidents
answer to Congress demand in
a new law last year that Fed
eral building be coordinated.
Second, he, in turn, asked
Congress to approve full ap-
propriations for major projects
although actual spending in
any one year would fall con-
siderably below the total.
Third, the President dispelled
concern expressed last year that
Federal building was jeopra-
died by tight fiscal policies.

principle apply to civilian en-
ployes of the armed forces
overseas? And why should there
be a distinction between cap

The Supreme Court an
swered these questions today.
There is no valid distinction
of principle between depend

far as trial by court martial
is concerned, the court ruled.
Same Principle Applies
1t also held that the prin-

crimes.

all of the majority findings.
Speaking for the majority,
Justice Clark discarded the

turb delicate arrangements

SO Billion Buduet
Hints 81 Tax Cut
$4.2 Billion
Surplus Seen
ByEconomy
By LEE NJ. COIN
Star STAFF Writer

President Eisenhower today
sent Congress a prudent" Fed
eral budget-S4.2 billion in the
black-and took a fighting
stance against election-year de-
mandS for heavier spending on
defense and domestic programs.
II Congress holds the spend
ing line. he said, perhaps the
Government can cut taxes in
1861.
II invite the Congress to
join with me in a determined
effort to achieve a substantial
surplus" he said, pleading for
resistance to the temptation to
increase spending and reduce
taxes now.
AS the President had dis
closed in his state-of -the-U Union
message, the budget calls for
expenditures of $79.8 billion and
receipts of $84 billion, for a
surplus of $4.2 billion, in the
1861 fiscal year opening next
July l. He estimated spending
in fiscal 1860, ending next June
80, at $78.4 billion, with receipts
at $78.6 billion and a surplus
of S217 million.
Reserves Urged
All of the surplus must be
reserved to reduce the public
debt, which stood at S284.7 bill
lion last June 80, he said. None
OF the surplus, he emphasized,
should be used to boost spend
ing or to cut taxes. In fact, he
proposed to increase postal
rates, user fees and special
taxes by nearly 81 billion.
Replying to critics who con-
tend his spending plans are
inadequate, he declared his
budget provides for maintain
ing required military strength
and enhancing the national
welfare" He continued:
This budget attests to the
strength of Americas economy.
At the same time, the budget is
a test of our resolve, as a Ma
ton, to allocate our resources
prudently, to maintain the Ma
tion's security, and to extend
economic growth into the fu-
ture without imitation"
Attacks Threatened
Mr.. Eisenhower faces threats
OF congressional action to eat
away part of his planned
budget surplus by:
Refusing to increase postal
rates by 1854 million, including
l-cent boosts for first class and
air mail.
Rejecting his recommended
tionS for increased taxes on av-
iation fuel, together with higher
fees and tax revisions in other
areas for a total yield of about
$3.50 million; his recommends
ton for increasing highway gas
taxes by one-half cent a gallon.

a fight but will not affect the

Fine Arts Wins
Rogers Ruling
0nGeorgetown
Attorney General
Overrides District
On Consultation

The Fine Arts Commission
today won an important fight
with the District Commission
ers over its jurisdiction in
Georgetown.
Attorney General Rogers
gave President Eisenhower a
15-page opinion supporting the
arts body contention that it
must be consulted on all build
ing projects in the Old George
town district.
The C o m m SSH ioner
had maintained the Fine Arts
group only had to be consulted
on historic buildingS-not new
ones. They also had claimed
the commission had no say
about such appurtenances as
advertising signs, fences and
walls.
Rogers Cites Law
Mr.. Rogers disagreed with
the Commissioners on both
points. He noted that the Old
Georgetown Act states that
plans must be submitted to the
Fine Arts Commission for the
construction. alteration, re-
construction or razing of any
building" in the Old George
town district.
"One cannot construct an
existing building" Mr.. Rogers
said. 1T is difficult to believe
that Congress would have used
this comprehensive language if
it had been its intention to
confine the statute to existing
structures.
The Attorney General claim
ed it was also unreasonable
to believe" that Congress meant
to limit the Commission strict
ly to buildings with mo con-
troll over such appurtenances
as signs, outside lights, fences
and walls which are equally
exposed to public view"
If these were uncontrolled, he
stated, they might readily"
disturb the general architec-
tural appearance of the area"
Other Rulings Noted
In his opinion, Mr.. Rogers
made frequent references toI
legislation in other parts of the
country similar to the Old
Georgetown Act which have
been the subject of judicial
Interpretation.
The Fine Arts group and the
Commissioners have been at
odds at various times in recent
months over such matters as
windows and garages.
In October, 1858, the long
simmering dispute over appn-
cation of the act boiled over
and a three-member panel of
architectural advisers to the
commission resigned. They
complained their advice to the
Board Of District Commission
ers was too often ignored.
The Commission of Fine Arts
filed a strong protest when the
District Commissioners ap-
proved the raZing of old
Georgetown structures they
said had great historical value.
Gray's Contention
Corporation Counsel Chester
H. Gray contended, however,
that the commissions review
powers were not as broad as
the group claimed. He main
tained that historic architecture
couldn't be preserved at the
cost of depriving owners of
their property rights.
The Fine Arts group con-
tended that some control
should be exercised over private
development in Georgetown.
Some Washington area plan
nerS criticized the group for
assuming planning and engi-
neering functions for which it
has no staff or legal RESPONSE
bility.
The Fine Arts group, how
ever, contended that Washing
tons historical flavor and ap-
pearance were at stake.

But there was little doubt
that more would be welcomed
by those in charge of trying to
catch up to Russia in space
and more would be offered by
a Congress increasingly critical
of the administrators ap-
proach to the space race.
The budget message revealed
plans by the civilian space
agency to launch four deep
space probes and eight scien-
tific satellites during the next
fiscal year.
The President recommended
that the National Aeronautics
and Space Administration
