More Budget Cuts Pledged by House Economy Forces
Washington April 5 1952 The bipartisan House economy group says it has reduced Truman's next year budget by 6 billion and promises further cuts. Rep John Taber forecasts total cuts near 10 billion to bring the 1953 budget to about 75 billion from Truman's 85 billion request. Chairman Clarence Cannon agrees more reductions will occur though he offered no new target. The House has trimmed military spending and advance moves suggest additional cuts, while most regular government spending bills for 1953 have cleared the Appropriations Committee.
