Deficit Outlook Improves as Debt Limit Hike Sought
The 1972 deficit is now estimated at 26 billion dollars the highest since WWII but 12.8 billion below January projections. The Nixon administration asks Congress to raise the national debt limit by 15 billion to 465 billion. Projections for 1973 place the deficit near 27 billion with tax withholdings up due to revised tables. Internal Treasury gains come from over withholding and delayed revenue sharing bill action.
