Armed Forces Budget in House 1953 Bill and Carry-Over
The House committee version of the 1953 military appropriations sets the armed forces at 46.6 billion, with additional carry-overs from 1952 and 1951 totaling 58.4 billion. Including supplemental and projected 1953 actions, total available reaches about 108.5 billion, with defense plans to spend 52.5 billion in 1953 and carry 56 billion into 1954. The carry-over is described as illusory since it funds orders for future purchases rather than current operations.
