McNeil says defense budget will cover shortfall without new bill
Assistant Defense Secretary W J McNeil dispels fears of a two to three billion dollar supplemental defense appropriation for the current year. Congress cut the defense bill to 46 billion from 50, while keeping personnel at 3.7 million and approving a 4 percent pay rise plus 14 percent allowances costing about 469 million. Additional retroactive pay raises total 236 million through 1952. GI Bill costs may add 300 to 400 million. Maximum Korean War cost pegged around five billion annually, leaving 41 billion for other defense needs this year.
