Viet War Will Increase U.S. Budget WASHINGTON (AP)--President Johnson intends to aik Congress for an extra $12 to $13 billion for the effort to save Viet Nam, competent authorities said last night. The request may go to Capitol Hill next week, possibly the day after Johnson delivers his State of the Union message which is certain to dwell heavily on the Vietnamese problem.

The bid will probably be billion than $12 billion and be a request for funds that could be made available in current fiscal year ending next Tune 30. But not all of it would be spent by mid-1966 only about $5 billion of the loaal slated for actual expenditure by end of June. War Cost: $17 Billion Together with $1.7 billion already granted by Congress last August and $700 million provided in May, the new funds would bring the total for increased efforts in Viet Nam to $14 billion his. The $5 billion, officials wild, would go largely into replacing Hilary slocks that were depicted for the Victriame.it war effort.

That is the period covered by the new budget. 7 to Billion Deficit A budget deficit of $7 billion to $8 billion is anticipated dur. ing the current bookkeeping year. The current revenue estimate is $96.5 billion, but the administration thinks Ihe govern, mcnt will take in mon than that. Word from the White- on prospects of budget swollen by the war in Viet Nam brought this response from Ford: "If President Johnson'i budget is either $110 billion of $115 billion next year, it means he in financing both guns and butter which will inevitably lead to a tax increase or runaway Infla- lion.
