Proposes
S2N6 Million
Record Budget
Increase in Toxes,
Larger U. S. Grant
Are Recommended
BY SAM EASTMAN
star star Writer


A record 1886 million SPEND
ing program for the District
next year. financed by some
combination Of tax increases
and a larger Federal payment
to the city, was recommended
today by the Commissioners
budget aides.
The proposed budget for the
fiscal year beginning next July
l does not carry specific recon-
mendations for bringing in ad-
ditional revenue. Instead, the
staff merely listed the tax in
crease possibilities which could
be combined with a more gen.
erous' Federal grant to yield the
extra money.
The budget staff recon-
mended that the Commissioners
first sound out key members of
Congress and Federal Budget
Bureau officials, then get the
public's views at the city's
budget hearing before propos-
ing new revenue-raising moves.
Reaction to Tax Plan
The pave-the-way-first ap-
proach is the result Of the
Commissioners failure to win
approval from the last Congress
for any tax increases. And,
once again. Congress voted only
$25 million of the authorized
$32 million Federal payment to
the city.
For the current fiscal year,
the city had proposed that
c ongres S authorize increases
in six taxes and that the Com
missioners raise the real estate
rate. Chairman Mcmillan of
the House District Committee,
however, backed an increase
from 2 to 3 per cent in the
sales levy as a substitute for
the Commissioners proposed
tax package. The sales tax rise
was passed by the House but
was blocked in the Senate by
Senator Morse, Democrat Of
Oregon. Il
Building Plans Announced
Today, the Commissioners
announced the city would move
ahead on about $7.5 million
worth of priority construction
projects included in a $40 mil
lion supplemental spending bill
approved during the closing
days of the last Congress.
Congress authorized the
spending but stipulated the
District could not go ahead
with these projects if this
would result in a deficit in the
general fund.
After an executive session
today, the Commissioners, as
expected, said the city would
seek to solve its revenue prob
lens during this fiscal year by
asking Congress next January
to appropriate the 81 million
difference between the $32 mil
lion authorized Federal pay
ment and the $25 million ac-
tually appropriated.
Financing Explained
The decision was made with
the recommendation of Schuy-
Ter Lowe, head of the Depart
ment of General Administra-
ton.
Mr.. Lowe explained that the
$40 million supplem e n t al
spending authorization plus
$8.1 million for the city en-
ploye pay raises could be n
nanced in this way: The city
would apply $8.8 million in
available funds plus the ST mil
lion Federal payment and de-
fer letting contracts for $2.5
million in spending items in
|cluded in the $40 million pack
age. No decision has been made
on the specific items which will
be deferred until the fiscal
year beginning July /.
Mr.. Lowe said he assured the
Commissioners the decision to
move ahead as scheduled on the
construction rejects would

Tidal Wave
Peril on Keys

MIAMI, Fla, Sept. 8 (AP).-
The Weather Bureau hoisted
hurricane warnings in Miami
and Fort Lauderdale today as
hurricane Donna churned a
turbulent 200-mile-wide path
near the South Florida main
land.
"A dangerous hurricane now
threatens most of extreme
South Florida" the Weather
Bureau advisory said. 1t
warned that tidal waves might
sweep over portions of the
Keys. Thousands were fleeing
Key West.
Gale warnings were raised as
far north as Vero Beach, 1876
miles north of Miami, and a
hurricane watch extended to
Melbourne, 178 miles north Of
Miami.
Storm Forecaster Bernie
Moore said Miami and Fort
Lauderdale were expected to
be in only the edge of Donna'S
hurricane-strength winds. The
center of the storm. with the
highest winds. estimated at $50
miles an hour. was still ex-
pected to pass through the
Florida Straits south of Key
West.
75-MiIe Gusts for Miami
The Miami area probably
will experience top winds of
rs miles, and those only in
gusts, the forecaster said.
Extension of the hurricane
warning area north to Miami
and Fort Lauderdale resulted,
the forecasters said, from a
! slight intensification of the
hurricane and a very slight
displacement northward of the
track previously forecast"
They urged prompt emer-
gency measures in the entire
area.
At noon (EDT), Donna's CEN
ter was reported about 154 miles
south-southeast of Miami and
an equal distance east-south-
east of Key West. 1t was NOV

In an emergency warning to
residents of the keys-the long
chain of islands extending
south and west from the Flor
ida mainland-the Weather Bu-
reau said tides would increase
to 6 feet above normal at Key
West.
Tides elsewhere in the keys
will range up to II feet, the

Secret Ballot Issue Hits
U. S. Steel Injecting

HOBOKEN. N. j., May 2
(AP).-A controversy over a
secret ballot broke out shortly
after the start of the United
States Steel Corp. annual
meeting today. More than
1900 shareowners were pres
ent.
After telling stockholders
that checking of initiation was
vitally important if the Amer
lean steel industry is to remain
competitive, Chairman Roger
Blough advised stockholders
that the polls were open for
election of directors.
A woman stockholder, Irene
O'Crowley, asked If she would
have, to sign her ballot. Mr..
Blough said she should do so
if she wanted it to be counted.
I'm going to vote and I'm
not going to put my name on
it," she replied.
A proposal for a secret bal
lot was before the meeting.
Management opposed it. The
proposal was submitted by Mrs.
Wilma Soss, holder of 10 shares
of United States Steel stock.
She frequently appears at
United States Steel and other
annual meetings.
Mrs. Soss got the meeting
under way by needing Mr..
Blough on the composition of
the board of directors.
Its a far too lonely stag
board" she said. Il would like
to see one or two women up
there to comfort the board in
hard times"
Here's how the secret ballot
would work:
The stockholder would re-
ceive a ballot with nominees
and proposals. The ballot would
be impregnated with the num-
ber Of shares to be voted. The
Stockholder would mark this
ballot, but not sign it.
The ballot would be put in an
envelope with the signature of
the stockholder certifying that
the unsigned ballot was en-
closed.
Both envelopes would be put
in a third envelope and mailed
to the company.
Evening star., 1960-05-02

Stockholders gathered at the
annual meeting were told that
The United States once had one
half of the worlds steel pro-
ducing capacity. but now has
about one-thmd.
To-day. many steelmaking
facilities abroad are as modern
as many of those in this coun-
try" Mr.. Blough said.
He told stockholders gathered
on the campus of Stevens In
stitute of Technology:
within view of an Ameri-
can steel fabricating plant in
Los Angeles a building is be-
ing erected whose ITO ton steel
skeleton is entirely of structural
steel fabricated in Great Brit
ain instead of the Western
United States.
Steel Imports at Low Cost
The steel for this building
was shipped across the Atlantic,
through the Panama Canal and
delivered virtually next door to
an American plant in the same
business.
Japanese steelmakers can
buy scrap on our West Coast,
transport it across the wide
Pacific to their mills in Japan
and then ship finished steel
products back to California
shores. and despite all their
shipping costs, undersell dom
estic producers.
"A major reason why Japan
and other foreign steel pro-
ducers can compete successfully
for markets here and overseas
is that wages of American
steelworkers are from three to
seven times those of steelwork-
ers abroad"
From 81 Cents to 81 an Hour
Mr.. Blough said the cost of
an hours work in American
steel production rose from "a
cents in 1910 to S4 in 1859.

Nikita Dislikes New York
And He Tells The
Russian People Why

MOSCOW, R-Soviet Premier
Khrushchev dislikes New York
and he told the Soviet people via
TV just why. 1t is repulsive, for
one thing, it sums up the degener-
alton of capitalism, for another,
he said.
Khrushchev spoke to a home
coming audience yesterday on
what he did abroad. Russians,
somewhat bewildered by two
hours of Khrushchev discourse on
international problems, sat up ex-
pectantly as he spoke of New
York.
81 would like to tell you COM
rades about New York City. This
is very big city. Gorky (the So
Wet novelist called it the city of
the yellow devil. But more than
so years have passed since Gorky
visited it," he said with grin.
"Since then New York has be-
come even more repulsive. By
itself, it demonstrates the ugli-
ness and degeneration of capital
ism. People live there, booming
themselves eternally to hard,
unbearable life as if bricking
themselves in stone bag.
Rather high buildings are be-
ing torn down. And instead of
them, they build skyscrapers. The
city is climbing upward. On some
of the streets, trees are being
planted, but they cannot grow,
and perish.
Especially pitiful is the picture
of children, for they are deprived
of many childhood joys. They are
deprived not only of running but
walking in the open fresh air that
is so necessary for each living
being. Streets are filled with huge
numbers of automobiles. AS is
known, automobiles work on gaso-
line. And the whole atmosphere
is poisoned with gasoline. So in
this respect, New York is ter
rible city"
