Byrd Says Signs Point Toward Administration's Cut In Federal Spending By JACK BELL WASHINGTON I Sen. Byrd (D-Va) said Tuesday there are signs the Eisenhower adminis tration is making an earnest ef fort lo cut back government spending as a major step toward slowing inflation. Byrd said in an interview he believes data brought out in hear ings before his Senate Finance Committee contributed to what he regards as a reversal of admin istration spending policies. "If this trend continues, I be lieve we can look forward to a reduced budget next year instead of the increased spending that the administration previously planned," Byrd said. "In my opinion, government spending is the biggest contribu tor to inflation. There are signs the administration is coming lo realize that and is doing some thing about it." Byrd said orders have gone out from Washington to scores of fed eral installations in Virginia to cut back on the number of their employes and to reduce expenses. He said he has reason to believe this cutback is general. The Virginia senator said that as nearly as he can calculate at this point, Congress seems likely lo make a six billion dollar re duction in Eisenhower's original request last January for $73,300, 000,000 in new appropriations. That request contemplated spend ing about $71,800,000,000 of this in the fiscal year that began last July 1. Byrd said reductions in actual spending will depend largely on whether individual government de partments are forced lo cut their outlays. He pointed out that most of these departments have large carryovers from funds voted by previous Congresses. The Finance Committee's hear ings on the nation's financial con dition have been highlighted by Democratic charges that the ad ministration's "tight money" pol ides, including high interest rates, have fed inflation and caused the cost of living to rise. Republicans replied this wasn't so, that administration fiscal pol icies helped curb inflation. Those hearings ended Monday, at least for the present. House Bill Would Pay For Moving Expenses WASHINGTON I' The House has passed a bill to pay the mov ing expenses of persons whose lands are acquired by the govern ment under reclamation laws. The bill, which goes to the Sen ate, would authorize the secretary off the interior to pay the expenses. , The department has estimated the annual cost at less than $25,000. The bill is designed to give the Interior Department the same authority in 'his regard that the military departments have had since 1952 regarding land acquired for public works -projects. Sen. Magnuson Says Shippers Use Blackjack WASHINGTON I - Sen.' Mag nuson (D-Wash) said Tuesday some American flag shipping in- terests '"are using a blackjack" on government agencies. "They are saying 'unless we can use a foreign flag, we'll not build any ships',". Magnuson said at a hearing of the Senate Commerce Committee which he heads. The hearing was concerned with Magnuson's bill lo prevent ship owners receiving U. S. govern ment subsidies or.other financial aid from selling or transferring any ships to foreign flag opera tions or ownership. Spokesmen for tne administra tion and for major American sleamship lines vigorously op posed the bill. They said it would require use of obsolete ships on American flag lines and prevent normal disposal of private properly.
