Ice cream and cookies were served by the hostesses, Miss Jerrean (Council of State Chambers of Commerce) I’ncle Sam’s Installment Buying Easy for AH But The Taxpayer j Uncle Sam goes in for installment buying in a big way. Only—he calls it "contract authorization.” It means' nothing down a»d billions when :he ( bill comes in. Some figures on this comparative ly recent development in Federal fi nance were brought out today in a special study ordered by State Cham bers of Commerce. For instance, the 1951 Federal Budget which Congress is now con-' sidering would grant various Feder al agencies authority to contract for 'construction and other Jobs that will require expenditures in future years. These will not cost anything in cash outlay right now but they will in volve spending at least $3,963,000 be- ore they are finished • k Because these gamts of contract’ authority do not show up right away as spending items in the budget, the > groups constantly pressuring Con gress for public spending pounce on them as a painless way of putting over new spending protects Congress itself has frequently replaced pan o* all of a requested cash appropriation i with such grants in order to show a budget cut Another "foot-in-the—door"" dev ;ce for mortgaging Uncle Sam s tax-fed income ts the growing practice of launching new public works protects with smalt doom payments The lt$l budget rrecommend* a variety of new public works which wood re quire doom payments totaling IIM.- atwlctcs roar gcbji AMAZING RtJtt Lift IN ONI Hot R T-4-L. a tnONG. pewe tone Wide yew RRACM to tems* la kill ON CONTACT. »».»L this ootrh dolma Mo aid lake INUTANTLT.

The larg est of these programs, the St. Law rence Seaway Project, calls for an initial deposit of only $4,000,000 in 1951 but at least $569,000,000 more to give Uncle Sam a clear title. Federal grants-in-aid to the States are along the same line. The proposed Federal aid to education is an illus tration. The first year’s installment on that one would* be $29,000,000. But it advocates admit they want to get it up as high as $2,000,000,000 a year eventually. Already a large part of the Federal budget is going to meet expenditures authorized in earlier budgets. Of the $42,400,000,000 budget proposed for spending in 1951, about $12,100,000,- 000 or 29 per cent will go for obli gations incurred in 1950 or earlier. Overhead. Not Guns Chief Defense Cost Washington (Special)— Figures showing what the 48*2 billion spent for the Military Establishment dur ing the last four years means in terms of Federal taxes to various income groups were released today by the Council of State Chambers of Com merce. These show over the four years that: A family of three with an income of $3,000 paid $645.59. A family of four with an income of $5,000 paid $1,130.08. A family of four with an income of $7,500 paid $1,798.92. In, addition, these family groups! paid out Federal taxes for other pur- i poses Connected with defense. These j totalled a little less than $4 billion; and included such activities as arms aid to friendly nations, stockpiling of raw matermls and atom.ic energy projects. But they meant $49.85 in Federal taxes to the $3,000 family group, $87.2^ to the $5,000 group and $138 90 tojthe $7,500 group. The Council’s study revealed that $6.75 out of every $10 spent for the | Military Establishment went for pay of all personnel, and for food, cloth ing and supplies for the soldiers, sail ors and marines. Less than $2 of each $10 spent for defense was used to buy guns, ship and planes. /The study declared that "Undoubt edly much housekeeping waste in the Military Establishment diminished 'the value of the $48H billion as an investment in preparedness, but ef forts begun by Defense Secretary Forrestal and continued by Secre tary Johnson to modernize the Es tablishment and cut out waste have now tended to strengthen that in vestment.” It added, ‘Tn view of the expanded program brought on by the Korean situation, it is all the more necessary that we obtain the mAximuhi return for every dollar that we are Invest ing in our national defense." 4 OFFICE BOOKS—Ledgers, all kinds.
