Baltimore has been expert

study by the American Munich
pal Association found that
1000 meters had been damaged
by would-be thieves-and pos
Sibly a few meter-haters-in 9

Although some areas, notab-
ly North Dakota, have fiercely
resisted parking meters, this Il
one product we seem to have
no trouble exporting. Homo
lulu's 1859 meters averaged $8s
apiece in 1859. Auckland, New
Zealand, found its first 90C

two years.
In Switzerland, which has q
parking problem too, watch
makers have even contrived q

getful shoppers.
They sell a penny-size alarm
you just set and slip in your
pocket when you plug the me-

the alarm goes off, giving you
just time enough to race back

YOUR
MONEYS WORTH
Coming: 500 Billion BUDGET
~ SYLVIA PORTER

The first 500 billion annual
Federal budget probably will
become reality before the Ken
nedy Administration ends its
term in January 1865.
This is not a wild guess. 1t
is a projection Of the budget
"a to SO months from now,
based on budget trends under
the Eisenhower Administration
and on trends under the Ken
nedy Administration.
It assumes rising spending
for defense, military power and
space exploration. It assumes
rising spending for health. edu-
cation, housing, urban renewal,
highways, ETC., but no "all-out"
social welfare effort. It assumes
continued high spending for
foreign aid and development
Of underdeveloped nations. but
nothing beyond what this coun-
try has become accustomed to
since the late 1940s. 1t assumes
increasing interest on the ma
tional debt, but nothing beyond
what already is obvious in
view.
We are, in fact, well on our
way to the 500 billion-a-year
Federal budget. When this fis-
cal year closes next July, Fed
eral spending will be in the
$88.5 billion range. This total
is commonly mentioned today,
although the figure can't be
fixed until Congress adjourns.
In the fiscal year beginning
July, 1862, spending Of more
than 500 billion is discussed.
Moderate rises in spending for
Evening star., 1961-09-13

soar from $425.0OO to about
$750.000 a year.
Unlike New York. Chicago
and neaby Baltimore, Wash
ington has not been troubled
with excessive meter crackers,
Since January, police say, only
five meter break-in incidents
have been reported, and the
thieves have had bad luck. Six
were apprehended shortly after
their nickel-and-dime raids.
There hasn't been a case since
May 8 here.
The new miniature vault
types being tried in New York
are made by Nautec Corps
Duncan Parking Meter Divi-
sion. Those in the New
Rochelle experiment are made
by Vac-Lock Corp. Of Long Is
land City, N. Y. The latter
meters are cleaned out by city
employees riding a truck carry
ing q vacuum pump.
They unwind a 50-foot hose
from the truck, plug it into the
meter, and suck out the coins
like a housewife cleaning an
ash tray. Thieves can't use a
vacuum cleaner on the meters
because Of the high vacuum

will go simply to pay interest on
the public debt. A big climb In
this cost is inescapable because
the national debt is moving
toward the highest totals ever
and interest rates are in
creasing.
This doesn't leave so very
much for all the other
programs - veterans benefits,
health, foreign aid, housing etc.
Can a 500 billion a year
Federal budget be balanced?
OF course it can be. Author
tiles insist the capacity of our
tax structure to produce great
amounts of taxes in a period of
economic expansion is woefully
underestimated.
We're on our way to the $100
billion Federal budget. This
budget will help make q busi-
ness boom and the boom in turn
will help create the taxes to
finance it.

PIeu uLessens
Drive to Lift
Steel Prices

NEW YORK. Sept. l3 CAP).
President Kennedy's pleas for
leaving prices undisturbed di-
minished the possibility of a
broad steel price increase, Iron
Age said today.
The Woodworking weekly
said that even before the Presi-
dents move chances of q gen.
eral increase were 'Iess than
50-50."
Lately, speculation has tend
ed to focus on whether the in
dustry will raise prices this fall
on selected big tonnage items,
like plates, sheets and struc-
turalS.
Opinion has been split.
Iron Age said the Kennedy
action altered the price rise
outlook only slightly because it
was expected.
However, the magazine listed
Government pressure against a
price rise as one of four factors
expected to figure prominently
in a decision.
Others are competition from
steelmakerS abroad, competi-
ton from aluminium, concrete,
glass and plastics domestically
and the domestic steel indus
try's own weak price situation"
Under a wage contract nego-
t1ated 20 months ago, steel
companies will raise blue collar
wages 2 to 10 cents an hour
October /. Any price action is
expected to come about that
time.
Nationwide steel production
advanced slightly last week,
posting its sixth consecutive
weekly gain. :

TRADE
WINDS
BY LOU SCHNEIDER

Now is the time to take note
of the prospects ahead. Corp
crate executives see September
as a good month, and predict
lively activity for the Oct-Nov.-
Dec. period across the board
for durable and semi-durable
goods. They expect the basic
industries, steel and automo-
bile, to set a good sales volume
when the 1862 new models are
introduced.
Keep this in mind: President
Kennedy will uncover legal
methods to hold the price line,
if White House pressure
against price increases fails to
carry weight. He intimated as
much when he spoke out
against a steel price increase
to offset the October l auto
matte raise in wages to steel
workers. In other words, the
corporate profit pinch will con-
tinue.
| y 4 4
Commercial bankers and fl
nance companies predict a
favorable consumer response
to the new 1862 auto models.
This spells out a good sales
volume year for all in the auto
and supplier industries.
In spite of political pressure,
the odds are 3 3lto 2 that steel
prices will be increased. 1t will
be on a selective basis - on
items not running into compe-
tition from imports. The aver
age increase will be slightly
more than 81 per ton, and
steel leaders feel that demand
will support it. Take note that
including the October l wage
raise, labor costs since August,
1858 will have jumped as much
as So per ton of finished steel.

military and space programs
will send the budget over the
500 billion mark. Even If the
brakes are put on civilian
spending, a budget Of $92-$94
billion is quite conceivable in
1868. Another 81 to $6 billion
easily could be added on before
the calendar year Of 1865.
When you break down the
500 billion total into the big
parts the picture is clear.
Far more than half the total
will be going for defense. Mill
tary and economic experts
argue that even II defense
spending reaches $500 bill
lion against SAG billion today
this would take only a "con-
servative" slice of 10 per cent
or less out of an economy pro-
ducing goods and services at a

Speedy Trial
Urged in Bank
Merger Suit

NEW YORK, Sept. Is (AP) .
"A Federal judge urges q quick
trial of the antitrust case in
the merger that created the ma
tion's fourth largest banking
institution.
In a switch of tactics, the
Justice Department yesterday
directed its restraining order
request at the merged institu-
tion-the Manufacturers Han
over Trust Co.
The departments original
motion was aimed at prevent
ing the merger Of the Manufac-
turerS Trust Co. and the Han
over Bank. The department
contended the merger would
lessen competition and tend
toward creating a monopoly.
Since the new bank started
operating as a merged institu-
ton on Monday, lawyers for
the department said in court
yesterday that they had to rec
ognize that fact and ask that
the assets Of the merged banks
be kept as separate as possible.
Judge Lloyd F. MacMahon
suggested that the suit against
the merged bank be brought
to trial quickly. He asked
counsel for the bank and for
the Department of Justice to
meet with him in his chambers
today to discuss the possibility
OF trying the case on its merits
soon. He suggested that both
sides reach an agreement on
the facts.
II the case is tried quickly,
the court would not have to
assume prolonged supervisory
responsibility over the bank.
Judge MacMahon postponed
action on the Department of
Justice request that the new
bank be ordered to operate the
offices Of the old banks sep
arately pending disposition of
the case.
George Reycraft, a lawyer
in the departments antitrust
division, made the request after
the attempt to obtain a pre-
liminary Injunction against
the merger became academic.
A ruling by Federal judge
John M. Cashin last Saturday
had permitted the merger to
become effective.
The department wants to
prevent "Scrambling of the
assets" Of the two merged
banks until the case is settled.

TALKING OF BUSINESS
Theftproof Parking Meters Built
To Protect $50 Million Income
BY TRUMAN r. TEMPLE
star Staff Writer

The parking meter-a gad-
get even the Russians have to
admit we invented-has won
the ultimate laurel: Attention
from the underworld.
New York City has begun in
stalling 5000 new vault-type
meters to cut down pilferage
and vandalism. If the meters
work out. the city will replace
all $4,000 meters now in use.
Another experiment by New
Rochelle, N. Y. along similar
lines is in progress, using q
vacuum-s sealed meter that sup
posedly foils any thief trying
to suck dimes out with a vacu-
um cleaner.
Although a relatively recent
invention-the first meter was
tried out at Oklahoma City
only 26 years ago-the little
ticking monsters, have multi
piled at a formidable rate.
David R. Levin, chief of the
Highway and Land Administra-
ton Division, U. S. Bureau of
Public Roads, estimates that
today there are about 2 million
parking meters operating in g.
900 American cities.
Their annual take: A whop-
ping $3.50 million.
And that kind of money
brings out the larcenous in
stinct in some people.
1t has been estimated by one
industry source that New York
City is losing 100000 or more
a year because Of meter theft
and vandalism.
To be sure, pilferage Is not
limited necessarily to outsiders.
Asbury Park, N. j. found after
a municipal scandal resulting
in dismissal Of some police de-
partment personnel that rev.
enues jumped from about $140,-
900 in 1856 to $24O, 900 in 1859
from the same number of park
ing meters. The city manager
stressed, however. that faster
meter repairs helped increase
the total. too.
The worlds first parking
meters were devised by Carl
Magee, a lawyer and news
paper editor, and G. A. Hale,
engineering professor at Okla
homa A & M, who persuaded
the Oklahoma City officials
back in 1885 to try them out on
a couple of downtown blocks.
Although the penny and
nickel varieties dominated
many cities for years, the in
PRODUCTION of the dime meter
has turned many a parking
space to pure gold. In 1858, for
example, Washington switched
over from a nickel to a dime
and saw its meter revenues

House for concurrence in Senate amendment, before it can be passed along to Gov William A. Egan for his approval or rejection.
 Numerous attempts were made in the Senate to change the bill. The one amendment, proposed by Sen. John A. McNess (D-Nome) was the only one accepted.
 McNees' amendment requires that $5-million of the ferry-road bond issue of $23-million be spent for road construction. Under terms of the bill as it was sent to the Senate, the $5-million could be spent for road construction and-or maintenance.
 Sen. Vance Phillips offered an amendment which would have eliminated the proposed Kodiak Homer-Anchorage run from the ferry system.
 T can see a ferry system in southeast Alaska, where the people voted heavily in favor of a ferry system," Phillips said, "but I can't see one in the south-central district, where the vote was so heavily against ferries"
