Delayed Budget Decisions May Alter 1956 Fiscal Plan
Washington sources say Eisenhower's tentative 1956 budget stands near 62 billion dollars with a 3.5 billion dollar deficit. Key questions remain on Far East aid, federal pay raises, and tax cuts. Final figures may shift by 2 to 3 billion dollars, and Congress must receive the budget by January 19. The current 1955 year shows 56.6 billion in outlays, 59.3 in receipts, and a 4.7 billion deficit.

NLRB Vindicates Port Arthur Union
The National Labor Relations Board dismissed unfair labor practice charges against CIO Industrial Union Local 1814 in Port Arthur. NLRB regional director Clifford Potter said the board found the picketing did not violate Taft Hartley law based on its history, with four local firms F W Woolworth Co McLellan's Mayfair Corp and Franklin Stores Corp named in the charges. The Mayfair and Franklin chains were treated as one complaint. In XLPR election last month employees called strikebreakers voted against unionization, and the charges argued continued picketing was coercive.
