Wilson ,,v (Unllail Pram Huff Cormlionilent) . Washington, July 21 mi Americans must brace themselves now for the heaviest tax burdens over imposed upon them.' : the alternative of reducing oth er classifications of government expenditure as hot-cold war costs zoom has been firmly rejected by President Truman: .. i . It appears now that he will ask congress for authority to spend approximately $57,500,000,000 in the current fiscal year. That rep resents the $42,400,000,000 budget ed for spending before fighting began in Korea, plus a $10,000, 000,000 emergency national ' de fense appropriation and - a $5, 000,000,000 emergency .fund fur ther to arm our allies. , ' .That rate of expenditure would set up a prospective deficit of about $20,000,000,000 for. -fiscal 1951. Spending for fiscal 1952 and for .some years thereafter probably; will be an great or greater. .' .- t -' ..Debt Soaring ' Taxpayers will have to pay into the treasury vaster sums than they put up in any world war II year to cut the prospective series of deficits down to safe sire. The alternative' would be to permit the national debt to continue, the steep clltpb It began In 1930 and continued with only two interrup tions since in 1947 and 1948. 'Mr. -Truman may startle con gress and the nation this autumn with a request that treasury rev enue be increased by $10,000, 000,000' or more a year by new tax levies. : 1 That would hike treasury reve nue somewhat beyond its best world war II year, 1945, when taxpayers poured nearly $44,800, 000,000 into Washington. World war II taxation was high enough to put the nation, about half way on a pay-as-you-go basis. We were about one-third on a pay-as-you-go basis in world war I. . Inflation Feared . To avoid a dangerous Inflation ary Increase In the national debt, Mr.. Truman is expected to go far beyond halfway pay-as-you-go for the current hot-cold war. After world , war II, govern ment spending never got back to anything comparable with pre war levels. That was .true after world war I, also.
