Warned on
Spending
BY GARNETT u. HORNER
Star Stah Writer

President Eisenhower today
urged Congress to act swiftly
on more than dozen programs
he termed vital to Americas
security and economic health.
In a special message, he warned
against surrender to the elec-
tion-year temptation to over
spend"
The Presidents far-ranging
message stressed the need for

action before Congress adjourns
in early July on measures rang
ing from providing adequate
mutual security funds to in
creasing the gasoline tax and
postage rates.
He dealt in only broad. gen.
eral terms with a new program
worked by the administration
for limited Federal aid in a
voluntary health insurance pro-
gram for the aged.
Mr.. Eisenhower said Welfare
Secretary Flemming will sub
nit to Congress later this week
details of the program which
he urged in place of compul-
sorry schemes that he said
would blight Americas un-
excelled medical standards"
Stresses Time Element
The Presidents message
amounted almost to a second
state -of-the- Union message.
He noted that Congress al
ready has been in session four
months, with only two months
to go, and enactment of civil
rights legislation is its "one
major accomplishment" so far.
Asserting that I'VE still have
a great deal to get done for
America" he said he wanted
to stress this now because the
time grows short" and elec-
ton year preoccupations could
seriously impede constructive
effort"
Mr.. Eisenhower expressed
hope that in the brief span
remaining before adjournment
the executive branch and the
S6th Congress can work con-
structively together in the in
terest of America and avold
schlsm and stalemate."
Senate Democratic Leader
johnson, commenting on the
message, said there is nothing
In the Constitution which re-
quires Congress to approve a
Presidents program.
Our responsibility is to exer-
else our collective judgment as
