Chaos Overseas Rapped the Congressional Record, "that the only lesson they will learn Is the horrible example of how a budget can remain unbalanced in a period of this nation's highest income level." Norblad said the ECA reason for bringing the experts here was that inadequate controls over government expenditures and in effective and inadequate systems of taxation in cooperating Euro pean countries create unbalanced budgets, thereby contributing to inflation and posponing recovery. The Oregonian asserted that the United States has balanced its budget only once in the last 17 years. "Yet we spend an additional half million to bring Europeans here to study our methods and at the same time go into the red another $800,000 by sending our experts to Europe to teach them budget balancing and efficient government operation," he said. "We are certainly going into the red to the tune of about two billion dollars in the United States again this year."
