The Kroger Co.. latest major

ager of area operations.
Mr.. Deal has been manager
of company operations at Bir-
mingham, Ala, and has been
associated with Kroger since
1853. He has established head
quarters at 20 o street Sc,
former Offices of the Food Town
chain, which Kroger recently
acquired.
Kroger will make a careful
analysis of the Washington
market and its newly acquired
properties here before announc-
ing long-range plans, Mr.. Deal
declared.
For the present, Food Town
stores will operate independ-
emily of any Kroger division,

Kroger will experiment with
WarehouseleSS operations and
Food Town stores will receive
meats, produce and groceries

Surplus Is Anticipated
But still a surplus in the
next year? Yes-a billion OF
two under the original esti-
mate, but still a surplus.
OF course. the fundamental
behind every production of a
budget surplus in the IL months
now to begin is that business
will remain strong enough to
produce the taxes from us and
from corporations. The official
estimate is that the economy
will be producing goods and
services at a rate approximat-
ing $515-$518 billion as this
calendar year ends, against a
rate of only moderately over
$500 billion now. If, instead of
rising, our economy goes into
a perceptible slide, that surplus
will fade into a deficit fast.
On the basis that the econ
omy will live up to the official
expectations. though, the first
two budget years of the 1960s
will be comfortably in the
black-against only three bud

decade of the 1950s.

President Eisenhower's budg-

at midnight next Thursday will
be a lot bigger than anybody
has been guessing so far. "Ap-
preciably larger" than the 5000
million surplus he forecast last
January, according to Wash
ington authorities.
The budget surplus for the
year July l, will be a lot smaller
than anybody has been sug-
gesting to date. Substantially
smaller" than the $4.2 billion
surplus predicted in January
according to the same sources
The Presidents record for
his eight years from mid-1953
to mid-1961 will be four sur
pluses, four deficits.
Factors in surplus
It's obvious that, despite a
much lower than anticipated
tax take from corporations,
other factors have emerged to
