US Spending
To Be Upped
$10 Billion
WASHINGTON (AP) Presi
dent Kennedy, in his first six
months in office, has advanced con
crete proposals for increasing fu
ture federal spending by well over
$10 billion.
Actually, the eventual spending
boost would be even greater un
der the administration s new and
expanded programs. However, $10
407,600,000 represents the amount
nf added spending authority which
Kennedy wants Congress to provide
at this time.
Of the total amount, $6,510,000
000 would be spent during the 1962
fiscal year which began July 1
The rest would be spread over sev
eral years.
In the light of administration
programs announced to date, ob
servers expect the fiscal 1063
spending budget to approach $90
billion. This would compare with
$87,723,000,000 now officially fore
cast for the current fiscal year.
Although the current-year budg
et deficit will total at least $S,-
290,000,000, administration officials
are hopeful of balancing the budg
et next year. Kennedy has warned
be will ask Congress lor a tax in
crease, if necessary, to achieve a
budget ' strictly In balance."
Secretary of the Treasury Doug
las Dillon said recently that it the
economy moves ahead as he ex
pects, "our revenues for fiscal
1963 would be adequate to meet a
of our national needs, with some
thing left over."
That was before Kennedy's $2-,-454,(100,000
proposal for the build
tip for Berlin, but the administra
tion argues that, while program
ming major spending Increases it
is pursuing course if fiscal re
sponsibility with balanced budgets
in sight. Critics contend that def
icits are the more likely prospect,
The strongest clue to the rising
trend in federal spending comes
from an analysis of this year re
quests to Congress for "new obliga
tional authority" appropriations
authority to sign contracts, ' and
authority for agencies to spend
money borrowed from the froai
urv.
Former President Dwight D. Ei
senhower last January asked for
$80.9 billion in obligalional author
ity. Revisions and additions by
Kennedy have boosted the total to
$914 billion.
Obligalional authority requests
normally exceed spending esti
mates for any single year because
they cover programs coming up in
future years. If the Navy is to
huild an aircraft carrier, for ex
ample, obligalional authority might
bo provided In one cinmK out ine
money would be spent over sever
al years.
Kennedy contends that Eisenhow
er's request for obligalional author
ity fell $88 million shy of the
amount needed to finance existing
programs. He has now added pro
programs of his own calling for n
extra $10.4 billion in obligalional
authority. ;
Konnedy has called for the fol
lowing increases in obligational au
thority to handle new and expand
ed programs:
National security, $45.8 billion;
commerce, housing and space, $1.9
billion; labor and welfare, $1.5 bil
lion; agriculture, $680 million; in
ternational affairs, $360 million; na
tural resources, $97 million; veter
ans affairs, $B5 million, ami gen
eral government, $24 million.

Far-Reaching YCC Bill
Approved By Committee
WASHINGTON (AP)-The Sen-I
ate Labor Committee today ap
proved far-reaching bills to set up
a 150,000-nicmber Youth Conser
vation Corps and establish a GI
education program for veterans
serving since JD55.
I ho youth corps bill sent to the
Senate floor far exceeds the rec
ommendations of President Ken
nedy. His administration actively
opposed the other measure,
dubbed Ihe "cold war veterans Gl
bill."
Both proposals were cleared by
voice voles with strong support
from Democrats on the commit
tee. Republicans indicated solid
opposition to the youth corps
measure. Some GOP committee
member! also opposed the veter
ans bill.
The youth corps bill, sponsored
by Sen. Hubert II. Humphrey,
D-Minn., would create a corps 25
times tne 6,nuomember pilot proj
ect proposed by Kennedy.
Knrollees would work on proj
ects sponsored by government
conservation, park, forest and
wildlife agencies similar to the
tusks of the old Civilian Conser
vation Corps of the 1930s.
The veterans bill, sponsored by
Sen. Ralph Yarhorough. D-Tex..
would give veterans discharged
since Jan. 31, 1955, college cdu
cation and other benefits similai
to those received by World War II
and Korean War servicemen.
The Veterans Administration, In
opposing the legislation, said the
education costs alone could ex

Test Flight
Moves Atlas
Step Ahead
CAPE CANAVERAL, Fla. (AP)
A successful 5,000-mile test
flight has moved an advanced At
las missile nearer operational
status and provided valuable in
formation for designing atomic
power units for space vehicles
Ihe improved Atlas "E " model
Monday scored its second straight
success, hitting a target area off
Ascension Island.
The new Atlas, which is being
developed for greater range and
heavier payload than the present
operational model is to be ready
for deployment late this year. On
us previous test firing, an E
rocket streaked a record 9,050
miles.
The blazing re-entry heat of the
Monday shot burned through a
special container attached to the
side. Brilliant yellow and violet
flares erupted.
The capsule carrying the flares
simulated nuclear fuel cores. Men
and cameras on- ships, in planes
and on Ascension watched and
recorded the flares and the ionizu
tion trails created by the disinte
grating capsules.
A radio transmitter relayed
heat information. Additional data
was obtained from a 30-inch cyl
inder which parachuted from the
nose cone and was recovered by
the ocean range vessel Coastal
Crusader. The packet contained
instruments and a tape recorder
to register temperatures and nose
cone performance.
The experiment could reveal
much about how an atomic space
generator would burn up and its
radioactive contents disperse on
re-entry into the earth's atmos
pliere.
The first atomic power device
ever flown rode in a transit navi
gation satellite launched last
month from Cape Canaveral. Of
ficials said it was purposely over
designed to guarantee safety un
der any condition.

Common Market
Set For Britain
PARIS (AP) The six nations of
the European Common Market
agreed today to open negotiations
with the British government lor
Britain's entry into the economic
community.
The decision was made in a
brief session of the foreign minis
ters of the six Common Market
nations. They are in Paris for a
quarterly meeting of the Western
European Union (WEU), made up
of the six and Britain
Widespread praise in Britain
and on the European continent
greeted Prime Minister Harold
Macmillan's historic announce
ment Monday that Britain would
seek negotiations to join the con
tinental economic group.
Most of Britain's national news
papers supported the govern
ment's move, but there were
warnings that months of difficult
negotiations would be necessary
to get concessions that would
safeguard British sovereignty and
the economics of British Com
monwealth countries dependent
on the British market
French President Charles de
Gaulle, anxious to make France
the leader of a united Europe,
was seen as the chief opponent
of such concessions. Political in
formants said Macmillan would
fly to Paris soon to try to smooth
Britain's entry into the continent
al group.
Most of Britain's partners In
the seven-nation European Free
Trade Association (EFTA) quick
ly indicated they would follow the
British lead in seeking association
or membership in the Common
Market.
Denmark announced it would
apply for membership. Austria
declared its willingness to begin
negotiations for a single European
trading bloc. Sweden made a sim
ilar announcement. Norway's gov
ernment indicated it favors join
ing the group, but said the deci
sion is up to the Norwegian par
liament. Traditionally neutral Switzer
land immediately expressed its
distaste for the Common Market's
developing drive toward political
unity. President Fritz Wahlen
said Switzerland "will under no
circumstances make any conces
sion with regard to its neutrality
and sovereignty.
The seventh EFTA member,
Portugal, said nothing.
The announcement by Macmil
lan caused alarm among the
Commonwealth nations who fear
British membership in the mar
ket would wreck the preferential
system mat gives special treat
ment to their exports to Britain
Australian Prime Minister Rob

ment wants to present Us own

tries. He implied doubt Britain

Modern Ship
Takes To Waves
SEATTLE, Wash. (AP) Com
modore Dewey's historic com
mand to Capt. Charles Gridley,
"You may fire when ready, Grid
ley," was repeated in Seattle Mon
day night, and a modern ship of
war was launched.
It was the $25-million guided
missile frigate USS Gridley. The
533-foot, 7,000-ton ship slid down
the ways after a champagne
christening by Capt. Gridley's
great-granddaughter, Mrs. Sturt
D. Rose, Burlington, mass.
The trigger which launched the
ship was released by Misi Lynn
Beryl Gridley, rrovo, utan, a De
scendant of the captain's family.
J. G. McCurdy, president of Pu
get Sound Bridge & Dry Dock Co.,
where the ship was built, gave
the order:
"Miss Gridley, you may fire
when you are ready, Gridley."
The Gridley Is the third Navy
ship named for the captain. The
first, built in San Francisco in
1918, was a torpedo boat which
helped escort flying boats on the
first air crossing of the Atlantic
in 1919. The second, a destroyer,
was built in Quincy, Mass., in
1935 and won 10 battle stars in
the Pacific in World War, II.
