Wronq Number?

There is an old gag that runs some
thing like, figures don't lie, but liars
can figure" So be 1t, but the fact re-
mains that figures themselves can be
pretty misleading without being actually
false.
One little set that came along the
other day involved a census of tele-
phones around the world-a neat trick
in itself--and showed that the Soviet
Union among all nations had the great
est percentage increase In telephone
installations in 1861. The increase was
10 per cent, and 1t made the American
increase OF only 4.l per cent look sort
OF small-not enough growth rate"
probably But there are some other
telephone figures The Soviet Union has
only 81 million (barely more than New
York City while the United States has
TIA million. And while the Russian
comrades were hooking UP 100000 new
phones, our telephone workers we're put

Once again the Ford Foundation
has Sown the fertile field Of childhood
with generous amount of musical seed
that in time should produce bumper
crop of musicians, composers and that
indispensable silent partner of these
two-appreciative audiences. AS most
adults will agree, their affinity to good
music can be directly traced to some ex-
perience when young ears and reSpon-
Sive hearts rejoiced in, well-Haydn's
Surprise Symphony. for one.
In the belief there are many more
Surprise Symphonies yet unwritten, the
foundation has granted 81, ,38O, 900, partly
to give potential Haydns and Beethovens
and, yes, Schoenbergs, in our public
schools the gentle prod that will send
the notes flying over the Staffs. Young
composers assigned to 13 public Sec
ondary schools will lead this program.
But under the guidance of the Mu-
sic Educators National Conference, the
six-year plan will probe much deeper
into the creative and esthetic natures
of the very young. One pilot project
will stimulate youngsters, from the first
grade on, through association with COM
posers who will subtly implant their
own innate love Of music. The old mas
ters, as well as protagoniSts Of new"
music, will have their day.
All this has pleasant overtones for
Howard Mitchell, who spends many
hours Of his year taking the National
Symphony Orchestra to Washington
area school children (about 100000
heard "a concerts last year,. In fact,
DR.. Mitchell credits much Of the SYM
phony's growth to this program. Perhaps
his happiest realization is that, in to-
days adult audiences, are many who
graduated" from the first National
Symphony youth concerts generation
ago.

risk Of inflationary presSures, damag-
ing alike to our domestic economy and
to our international balance Of pay
mentS." The present estimate, however,
is for deficit of $88 billion, and now
the President and his economic advisers
are taking a new tack. Planned deficits
are being embraced-with certainty for
two years, probably for three, and maybe
for more. But spending is not the villain
in administration opinion-even though
it will be up, not down. It's the tax
system, and in his Economic Report,
Mr.. Kennedy assures the Congress that
"in today's economy as contrasted to
last years. fiscal prudence and respon-
sibility call for tax reduction even II it
temporarily enlarges the Federal deficit"
We think the tax system needs a
going-over, too But so does the spend
ing system, before the dollars that are
saved from the tax collector dwindle in
value to the peanut category.

Toke Tor Else

The settlement of the shipping
strike, If it can really be said that there
has been a settlement, gives no cause
for elation.
The cost Of the package over
tWo-year period is estimated at 81 cents
an hour. This, we think, breaches the
administrations hold the : line wage
formula, although Senator Morse, in a
statement to the Senate, has denied
that this is the case
The most important issue, however,
has not been settled. This has to
do with featherbedding by the union.
Senator Morse, who headed the preSi-
Dental committee which worked out
the settlement" said the situation
with respect to manpower and job utili-
zation was the real bone of conten-
tion," and he added that there appears
to be terrific amount of waste of
manpower in the greater New York
area"
This is what the shippers have been
saying, and 1t is the point over which
the negotiations broke down months
provides for two-year study" of the
manpower problem, and for recon-
mendations" in 1864 by neutral body
II the parties in the meantime have
not agreed on the findings of the study.
Nobody is bound to accept any of the
recommendations.
So the net result, assuming final
ratification of the agreement, is that
the strike has been bought off with
a generous money award to the union,
while the really tough iSSues-the issues
which, II resolved, might enable the
shippers to recover some of the large
costs of the wage termS-have been
shunted aside, and could well lead to
another strike two years hence.
This kind of ad hoe procedure, the
practice Of dealing with, or, one might
say, buying off each emergency as 1t
arises, can lead to nothing but chaos
In the long run. The problems raised
by automation will be difficult to handle
In almost every case. But the solution
Is not to let matters drift until, in the
face Of each new national emergency,
some half-baked settlement formula is
worked out and imposed on the parties
by resort to threats.
The only rational remedy as a last
resort lies in legislation to compel arbi-
tration Of national-emergency disputes
under standards and guidelines which
will lead to the establishment of rea-
sonable patterns. The politicians will
shrink from doing this. But it will have
to be done sooner or later, and, we
think, the sooner the better.

The American Way

Hope is now running high that
another 1000 or so relatives of the
Cuban invasion prisoners will be per-
mitted to enter the United States as
Part II OF, Fidel Castro's bonus" in
connection with the ransoming Of the
Bay Of Pigs victims.
If successfully carried out, the emf
grafton will call for another reunion
celebration like that last month when
the freed prisoners were joined in this
country by 900 of their kinsmen. OF
the many Americans who vicariously
will share this warm moment, thou
sands have made large contributions
toward its realization.
What they have done, we generally
call "the American way" and hope it
isn't construed as boasting. In this
instance, the American Red Cross used
its Savvy to round up all the compo-
nentS, some of which were:
The American Association Of Rail-
roads, American Trucking Associations
and Air Transport Association, which
donated hundreds of freight cars and
trucks and planes and manpower to
carry $50 million worth Of drugs, baby
food, medicines, ETC., to the ports;
the Committee of American Steamship
Lines, which donated the ships and
crews to carry the supplies to Cuba;
the Port Everglades (Fla) and Balti-
more Port Authorities, which contrib
uted thousands of dollars in docking
facilities; the AFL-CIO, which loaded
the ships and paid the salaries of long
Shoremen who worked despite strike;
manufacturers who contributed the
goods; air lines that flew out prisoners
and refugees without cost; Government
agencies working around the clock.
Altogether, they form an impressive
picture of American enterprise, industry
and cooperation.
There is much more, but that is
the general idea, and it is meant to
convey only two thoughts: ~ There
really is an American way of which we
can be proud and (2) as long as 1t
exists, the Cuban people will not be
forgotten during their days in bondage.

LETTERS TO THE STAR
The Budget: Its Size, Goals and Impositions

The 1864 fiscal year budg-
ct as proposed by President
John Maynard" (as in John
Maynard Keynes) Kennedy is
$9S.8 billion-with an esti-
mated deficit of $11.9 billion.
For 1868, the President esti-
mated a surplus of $500 mil
lion, but the resulting def
cit was $8.8 billions for a
total miscalculation OF $9.3
billion. Assuming that his
calculations are no more er-
roneous for 1864 than they
we're for 1868, and without
weighting figures. we can
simply add the $9.3 billion
error to the estimated $11.9
billion and arrive at a fairly
realistic figure Of $21.2 bill
lion.
The 1864 figures include
1854 billion for defense and
$4.95 billion for foreign aid.
AS an American interested
in fiscal responsibility and
the triumph of liberty over
communism. I think the fol-
lowing suggestions are in
order:
There is growing unrest In
Communist countries of the
world. These are the coun-
tries against which we are
preparing to defend ourselves
with 1854 billion. A siz-
able portion of the $4.95 bill
lion in foreign aid will be
given to these Communist
countries to reduce the un-
rest. This reduction of ten
sion within the satellite
countries allows Russia to
better divert her resources
towards manufacturing war
materiel. The continuous
coddling of and cuddling
with the commies will not
reduce these expenditures
which constitute over so per
cent of our budget.
If we would invest in small
arms only 10 per cent Of the
aid presently given to Com
munist countries and snug
gle these small arms to the
underground forces, we could
cause further unrest and
eventual overthrow of the
Communist dictators. CIf
anyone doubts this, they
need only check on what
happened in Hungary in
1856 and recall that this was
accomplished without our

What Makes the Deficits !?

An interesting aspect of that "seri-
Gus dialogue" on economic matters
which President Kennedy invited some
months ago is found in his own appeal
to citizens to serve their country "by
supporting income tax reductions" One
might suppose that this is a cause of
such assured popularity that no recruit
ing would be necessary.
AS a matter Of fact, there is much
merit in some phases of the administra-
tions current thinking ON the "unrealis-
tically heavy burden Of taxation" with
It's drag on personal and business pur-
chasing power The heavy tax burden,
OF course, also has an adverse effect
on the financial incentives for greater
risk-taking and personal effort. Many
responsible economists, as well as ordi-
nary people, have felt this way about
the tax system for a long time. But
the dollar appetite Of big government
has been so voracious for most OF the
past 80 years that even occasional
offerings OF relief have been fiercely
contested and eventually offset by new
layers Of taxation.
Against this background, the tax
system has failed consistently to pro-
duce the dollars the Government has
spent-in peacetime, as we'll as in war
time. Twenty-six Of the last thirty-three
budgets ended in deficits, and the Ken
nedy administration holds out only a
guarded optimism that there will be
budget in the black by fiscal 1857 Mean
while, the public debt has risen from
below $50 billion in the early l930s to
more than $500 billion today, and the
purchasing power OF the dollar has
dropped by more than SO per cent
Only year ago, Mr.. Kennedy spoke
approvingly Of the balanced budget
principle, and estimated a small surplus
for the fiscal year ending next June 30.
A deficit, he said, would increase the

recognize the insurgents with
the same rapidity with which
we recognized Castro in 1859.
The unrest within the satel-
lite countries would eventu-
ally spread to Russia, and
communism, which has no
moral, economic or political
right to exist, would inevita-
bly, be overthrown with the
net result that our defense
budget could be considerably
reduced.
Only by exercising a win"
policy of this type will we
deserve the title Of leader
Of the free world. Only by
overthrowing com m u n / SIN

moral obligations. Let us
balance our budget by ex-
ercising our leadership and
fulfilling our moral obliga-
tions.

I find myself in agree
ment with Ambassador Gal
braith on the subject of the
Presidents financial pro-
gram. That program, in
eluding his budget, proposes
to engage in the greatest
gamble of our history - a
gamble in which not only
our Government is to be en-
gagged but the. fortunes of
all 1877 million of our people.
Nor is the gamble to be con-
fined to us. Upon it rests
a large part of the resources
of the free worlds alliance
system and the fortunes of
freedom, itself. 1t would be
folly, in my opinion, to en-
gage in any such risky pro-
gram. Steady does it. Let
us leave gambling to indi-
viduals. who can limit to
themselves and their families
the burdens of their failures.
Governments cannot afford
risks Of the proposed magni-
tude. Too many people and
too great a debacle Of failure
are involved.
r. Smith Simpson.
Deficit spending, indeed!
First, President Kennedy will
get his tax cut bill passed
and then we will have his
enormous budget proposal.
If we cut taxes, where will
the slack be taken up? Who
supplies the resultant reduc-
ton in our receipts? The
popular side of this ques-
ton is to be in favor of the
tax cut. But. the popular
side Of a question Is not
necessarily the right side.
Evening star., 1963-01-23

President Kennedy has
proposed his all-time-high
budget because he has no
alternative. Being a good
Democrat, he will have to
run true to form. Economy
and wise planning are not
the attributes of the Demo-
cratic Party.
A tax cut appeals to the
average person who can see
no further than the end Of
his nose. He does not have
the perception to see the
long-range effects Of that
action. All he can see is
the immediate effect on his
pocketbook. However, If we
SOW to the flesh, we shall
reap the whirlwind. You do
not receive something for
nothing in this world today!
It is a wise person who
takes care not to run his
credit into the ground. That
truth applies to our people
nationally as well as indi-
vidually.

Please do everything in
your power to keep members
of Congress from being stam-
peded into any ridiculous and
most dangerous action on the
proposed budget. 1t does not
take much intelligence to re-
alize that any individual,
business or nation cannot -
except in periods Of emergen-
cy - permit expenditures to
exceed income.
Unfortunately we are cre-
ating a deficit which cannot
be paid by us today or tomor-
row. Instead. we are saddling
our children and our chill
dren's children with a finan-
cial burden too great for
them to bear. So please help
stop this crime against the
future generations of Amed-
cans.
And please do what you
can to correct the false idea
among public officials and
politicians that no person in
national, State or local office
is great unless he spends
more than his predecessors.
So please work for q re-
duced and balanced budget
and not for an enlarged and
red one. Surely there is no
better way Of playing into
the hands Of the Communists
than to bankrupt our coun-
try. And this is certainly be-
ing done today - first on q
national and then on local
and State levels.

tests are met with the ex-
cuse that they must provide
homes for families displaced
by urban renewal"
All this we have told our
selves as we tried to sustain
faith in the miracles we
hoped to achieve through
the broad powers Of urban
renewal. But now we find
that the mistakes of the past
are to be compounded In the

RIA and the National Capt.
tai Housing Authority, act
ing under the comfortable
cloak Of immunity from citi-
zen control enjoyed by "in-
dependent agencies" are
teaming up into a power
combine to seize at random
the dwellings Of private
property owners and con-
vert them to permanent pub
lie ownership for public
housing at prices less than
they we're bought for and at
prices lower than that at
which they would be avail
able to anyone else.
Furthermore, Mr.. Lewis
tells us. that the RIA makes
no secret Of It's plan TO fol-
low this same policy as IL
extends its operations into
other parts Of the city.
Let us no longer delude
ourselves about the future Of

that our anxiety for progress
and our naivete have led us
TO sell our American birth
right for a mess Of pottage.
