Some school building is contemplated, but an Associated Press survey of the principal out-state cities indicated the pressure for classroom space is easing off. Industrial is not expected to maintain the fas! pace of former years, as the competition for new industry grows keener. Hard at Work Most cities have industrial committees and they're hard at work.

One of the more significant projects on the 1P5S calendar is conversion of the World War 11 housing project of Spencer Park in Hastings to Nebraska's largest and most complete retirement colony.

By the end of the year it is anticipated at least 400 persons will have moved into the colony.

Hastings also expects to complete a 100-acre recreational area north of the city, including a 70- acre lake fed by waters used to cool the generators at the city's power plant. Storing of water in the lake already has begun. Norfolk has completed plans for a improvement at the Lutheran Community Hospital, a 5345,000 sewage disposal plant, a $103,000 addition and swimming pool for the YMCA, and a $150,000 building for Nebraska Christian College. The state also has plans for extensive remodeling at Norfolk State Hospital. Norfolk plans to issue $240,000 in bonds for the disposal plant.

And in North Platte, Mayor J. L. Keenan has proposed a vote on a $360,000 civic auditorium which would include a Youth Center and other facilities. Financing has been arranged for Three major school projects in the state and some lesser ones. Fremont is ready to start work on a $900,000 senior high school in addition to a 13-room $220,000 grade school already under construction.

Columbus is completing a new $1,500,000 high school in time for use this fall and York is building additions to two schools under a $575,000 bond issues approved in 1956. New High Record Kearney expects to let contracts in May for a new high school, having already approved a $2,080,000 bond issues to pay for it. New additions to elementary schools also are planned at Kear- 100 blocks of streets also are contemplated this year. Looking still farther ahead in Norfolk, the First Methodist Church plans another unit in its building campaign and has started a $225,000 money-raising campaign. Sacred Heart Catholic Parish is laying plans for a high school and athletic, field, and both the Assembly of God and First Congregational churches are planning new buildings.

Beatrice Hospital Beatrice will complete a $300,000 addition to Lutheran Hospital in 1958. Columbus is planning a Island is working on one new grade school, but plans for other school construction awaits a state supreme court decision on the amount of the school budget for the year. Two new junior high schools in Lincoln and an elementary school at Lincoln Air Force base are planned for the capital city. Scottsbluff's school building plans are contingent on money. The voters turned down million-dollar bond issue for both grade and high school facilities.

Observers expect the voters will be asked to approve funds at least for grade school needs this year.

And in all his letter- disarmament Bul- ganin says nothing about.a foolproof inspection inside Russia and this country to prevent cheating by either side. Sunday Eisenhower answered Bulganain's Dec. 10 letter. It took him weeks to compose the reply but it had the effect also of answering die letter of Jan. 9.

Eisenhower said he's willing to meet with the Russians, but be- ore there is such a gathering he wants the details of the discussion subjects worked out by experts on the various problems and by the "oreign ministers. Both discussing the problems between the two meant as propaganda too. The people of not only the United States and Russia but of the rest of the world will be looking in on the correspondence. Bulganin's Dec. 10 shrewd and well a broad appeal because so many people, particularly in Europe are anxious for some peaceful solution before there is war.

And Bulganin timed it for the moment calculated to do the mos damage to the United States: just before Eisenhower went to Paris to talk with American allies in the North Atlantic Treaty Organization.

NEW YORK W-The ups andi owns of the federal ups, it the mili- ary and economic history of the Jnited States. President Eisenhower is expect- to spend nearly 74 billion dol- ars to meet the International roblems and domestic needs of ic coming fiscal the ederal highway program will re- uire more money on top of that. Jeorge Washington in the eight ears of his administration got long on ah average expenditure if million dollars a year. The needs of 13 thinly populated agricultural'states cannot be compared with those of 48 states, many lensely populated and highly industrialized. But other factors en- er in, too, besides the growth of 'Opulation and changing standards if living.

Inflation Takes Toll Inflation takes a toll of the federal budget just as it does of your own. -Ihe-nation has changed from an solated entity to a world leader vith a finger in almost every in- ernational problem. People have changed their no- ions about government. They make more demands on it now, expect more services, even look to to shelter them from business recession or falling prices for their products, and to counteract natural disasters. When Abraham Lincoln was Ike's record peacetime budget (Continued trom Page 1) fund to rush development of any breakthroughs in the weapons field, together with authority to switch two billion dollars around within the armed services "in order to take prompt advantage of new developments." 3.

For foreign military and related aid, $3,868,000,000 to be spent in the coming fiscal year. This is a 119 million dollar increase over the current figure. The proposal looks like one of the hottest issues to come before the new Congress. Many legislators favor cutting foreign aid a course Eisenhower says would be reckless gambling with western security. All told, the President's new budget calls for 1958-59 spending at more than a billion dollars over the current rate.

The current spending program, running at $72,800,000,000 a year, is the highest in American peacetime history. Eisenhower called for a 2 billion dollar slash in manpower, installations and older-type weapons, including B52' bombers and some other aircraft. And he proposed "curtailments, revisions or eliminations" of many nonmilitary programs, ranging from federal payments to farmers to expenditures for war veteran services and benefits. Sixty-four per cent of the new budget is devoted to "protection forces, military aid to allies and the like compared with 63 per cent of the current budget. As the White House forecast earlier, no general tax increases are proposed.

Eisenhower suggested, in fact, some- tax cuts to aid small business, while recommending higher taxes on aviation fuels to reduce the cost to the government of its activities in the air traffic field. Likewise, the President included in his. message a previously announced plan for a billion dollar program aimed at helping stales -improve education standards. But he said he was not repeating at this time his proposal failed to win approval in Congress last year of federal aid for school construction. He came up with at least one recommendation which, like his foreign aid plan, is sure to meet opposition: a five-year extension of the reciprocal trade agreements act, with more power for the president to make tariff-cutting agreements with other countries, Congress has shown reluctance to grant this in past years.

On the cutback side of the budget, Eisenhower's proposals included: 1. A 300 million dollar cut in farm program spending, bringing the estimated total to $4,600,000,000. He said "important revisions" are needed in price support, conservation and rural credit pro- THE FEDERAL BUDGET MAJOR NATIONAL SECURITY SHOOTING FOR A BALANCED increased expenditures to counteract Russia's missile threat and a business downturn may result in a deficit ol some $400 million dollars at the end of the present fiscal year, President Eisenhower looks ahead to a half-billion-dollar surplus in fiscal 1959. Newschart, above, shows proposed expenditures totalling $73.9 billion dollars in fi.scal '59 estimated receipts of dollars, and a hoped- for, half-billion-dollar surpus. Such is picture as presented to the Congress by the President.

grams, and added he would give details in a special message later. His budget message did, however, propose ending the acreage reserve program at the end of the 1958 crop year. 2. A 22 million dollar drop in veterans' expenditures. This would bring the cost next year to about five billion dollars.

Eisenhower said the cut'would be possible be cause of "a decline in the readjustment needs of veterans of the Korean War and from economic: in operations." 3. Higher interest rates on government insured or guaranteed mortgages and similar loans. The President urged that private nancing be substituted for govern' ment loans and mortgage purchases wherever possible. In general, Eisenhower made a strong appeal for state and ate bodies to take over whatever federal programs they can in the interest of sound federal financing and in the light of high defense spending. He proposed, for in stance, that the' states take ful financial responsibility for a voca tional education program which has been paid for In part by fed' sral grants.

Eisenhower struck a your-belt note from the start his budget message, saying tha while science has opened new vistas to mankind in recen months this "is also a time growing danger." "The progress of the Soviets in long-range missiles and other of fensive weapons," he said, "to gether with their continuing re jection of a workable disarma ment. npels to tain of our defense activities which we have only recently expander many fold. "The total expenditures for mis sile research, development anc procurement, for guided missil' ships, find for missile-related con struction will be $4,300,000,000 in (fiscal) 1958 and $5,300,000,000 in 1959, compared with three billion spent in 1957, $1,700,000,000 in 1956 and 1955." Budget ups and downs mirror U.S. military Then the nation had one of its Deriods of diminishing spending. Fiscal 1955 it dropped to bil- Federal budgeting has risen steadily since to an estimated billion dollars in the present fiscal year, ending June 30.

The federal debt has swelled, too. This year the treasury will pay out about eight billion in interest on the 275 billion dollar debt. This seems due to go higher next year. The treasury will pay out about five billion dollars on veteran programs and billion on various aids to each case almost as much as President Wilson averaged a year for everything during his two turbulent terms. Some of our spending now might astound President Wilson.

For example, in 1945 we moved into the atomic age and this year we're spending nearly 2 billion dollars on the development and control of atomic energy. Space Age Now we are moving into the age of outer space. And President Eisenhower says that this will increase our defense need by about four billion dollars and should cause us to spend one billion to speed up the education of embryo scientists. The other side of the budget, tax collections, mirrors the ups and downs of the U.S. economy even more clearly.

Since Wilson's day the treasury President his four years of war has come more and more to lean averaged out at a cost of 838 mil- ion dollars a year, a record then. The first billion dollar budget came under Woodrow Wilson. But the average annual expenditure of his eight years in office, including the First World War, was bil- Jon dollars. During the 12 year regime of Franklin D. Roosevelt, years of depression and of World War II av erage expenditure soared to 31 billion dollars a year.

In postwar 1948 federal spending was 33 billion dollars. The Korean War and building up the nation's defenses in the cold war brought fiscal -1953's expenditures to 74 billion. on individual and corporate income taxes. It now gets about 70 per cent of its revenues from these sources. When the economy recedes, down go tax receipts.

And that is one of the current problems in balancing both this and next year's budgets. The recession is cutting profits and treasury collections. President Eisenhower's new budget is reportedly based on the belief the recession will have run its course when the new fiscal year starts July 1. He hopes another business boom will start, fill the treasury's coffers and pay for the new record peacetime expenditures. 6th and Washington CHAPEL Dial CA 3-3521.
