Budget Fight Grows Over Eisenhower Proposal
Washington reports that House Appropriations Committee members plan deep cuts to President Eisenhower's request for 71.8 billion, aiming to trim to below 73.3 billion across fiscal year starting July 1. Subcommittees in Interior, Post Office and Treasury begin closed-door reviews. Treasury warns of inflationary risk and potential resignation if spending remains high. A year-end surplus of 1.8 billion is forecast to cut the national debt, potentially enabling tax relief in 1953.
