Inflation Perils Raise Demand For Cuts In Spending WASHINGTON -(.P Warning that there are dangers of inflation, the Senate-House Economic com mittee has raised a demand (or "relentless" cuts in the govern ment's in-the-red spending. The committee issued a report by its eight Democrats, while the six Republicans on the group pre sented a separate finding of their own. Even the Democrats failed to en dorse President Truman's plea for a net increase in taxes. They did ask for some excise tax cuts, and said also: "In years of such booming busi ness as currently is causing prices to boil up in an inflationary man ner throughout the economy, this government should not be incur ring deficits." Mr. Truman asked last January for cuts in excise taxes, to be bal anced by additional revenue from other sources plus an additional DHUon dollars, mainly from higher corporation taxes, to help trim the federal deficit. The congressional committee's report dealt with the President's annual economic message, which he also delivered to Congress in January Barrier'! Lilted Except possibly to boost the mo rale of the congressional economy bloc, the committee's report was expected to have little effect on legislation, for these reason: 1. For the third straight year, the advisers of Congress on eco bomic matters divided on strictly political lines. 2. The report was 3!4 months late; it was due on March 1. By this time it cannot sway many votes. 3. The Democratic majority took no flat stand for or against ar.y of Mr. Truman's specific pro posals, though Chairman O'Maho ncy said its report, "broadly speak ing, endorses the objectives of the President's message." The majority report in para graphs with which the Republicans did not quarrel reported signs of a "renewed upsurge in the econ omy." But it saw "underlying problems and weaknesses." Most economists are reserving ludement on the husi. ness outlook for 1951. it was noted because a tapering-off in the auto- mooue, steel and building indus tries is "highly probable." Other- Perils Foreseen The No. 1 principle which should guide economic legislation, the re port said, is to aid in "expanding, encouraging and fostering private enterprise," as a source of jobs and income for a growing labor force. Other perils were named. If farm income continues to fall, business and industry may suffer; small I business is losing ground In the struggle for profits; rising price indexes may put a damper on con sumer demand. The committee said: j "Consumer prices are being kept so high that consumer buying pow er, especially of those of the lovest i four-fifths of the income scale, is 1 being undermined." .3 L.vraT c ,1 fc OtUfl n -m ' af i AIDING AN ORPHA N Two-yrar-otd Susan Brown, of Bethel, Me., bottle-feeds Bamhl, Iwo-week-old fawn delivered "iy Caesarian section atter its mother was killed by an automobile. Illness Of Smuts Causes Concern In British Empire By DeWITT MACKENZIE ' AP Foreign Affair Anilyit The grave illness of aged Field Marshal Jan Christian Smuts at his home near Pretoria is a mat ter of deep concern not only to his native South Africa but to the British empire and commonwealth, for he long has been a pillar of strength in that great association of nations. Indeed, this famous soldier statesman has been more than that, for he has in the truest sense been a world citizen one of the outstanding figures of history. He nas played a leading role in some of the most striking international developments of our time. The 80-year-old Smuts has suf fered a collapse which has been followed by pneumonia. Should this illness mean that he must abandon politics altogether (as the doctors say may happen) it may easily create a fresh crisis for the British commonwealth. It was the field marshal himself who In 1917 introduced the idea of the commonwealth, and he has been the chief link which has held South Africa in that union of na tions. Many of his political oppo nents who now are in power want separation from England and the establishment of a republic. Long prime minister. Smuts re signed ni 1948, after a coalition of nationalists and Afrikanders de feated his united party. Since then Smuts has been lead er of the "opposition" to the gov ernment in parliament. Permanent removal of that powerful leader ship would be bound to stimulate the crusaders for separation from British influence and for white dominance. Once Fought England It is a curious thing that Smuts, ! who once was 'labeled "the em pire's handyman" because of the many duties he performed, should , first have come to prominence as a military leader in the Boer war I Wed., June 21, 1950 The Newi-Review, Roieburg, Ore. 3 gainst England. In that conflict he rendered yeoman's service to South Africa. Again at the outbreak of World War 1 he got inlo uniform, this time as a lieutenance general in the British army and commander in chief of the British and South African forces fighting the Ger mans in bast Africa. His success there was followed by a call to membership in the imperial war cabinet in London. And in World War two the counsel of the then aging Smuts was sought by Britain. It leu to smuls to he one of the planners of both the I.etigue of Nations and the United Nations. Great as he has been in war, he always has been an advocate of peace and cooperation among na tions. He has been showered with university degrees and other hon ors by many countries. Feted en Birthday A measure of the esteem in which the field marshal is held at home was seen on May 24, which was his 80th birthday. The Malan government with which he was at war politically tried to throw cold water on a public cele bration of the event. However, Johannesburg put on her best gala dress for him and accorded him tho freedom of the city. Some 30,000 people jammed the great public square, and other thousands crowded buildings clear to the roof-tops. Nothing could cool the love and admiration so widely held for this great figure. So now Smuts' fight for health is being watched with deepest sym pathy in many lands. And one suspects that in British official circles the sympathy is mixed with considerable anxiety lest this great statesman, who has meant so much to commonwealth solidar ity, should be permanently mval- iaea at tnis critical juncture. v - i J v 1 Az 1 fi fftEA Ttlrphtrto) HELD IN BROTHER'S DEATH Peter Boesen (above), 63, Is being held for Investigation of murder In San Jose, Calif, after he and a brother led authorities to the house of another brot ler who ap parently had been dead since 1948.
