It Is interesting to note that in the first 11 months of the 1957 fiscal year the federal govern ment spent almost $72 billion, , while in first 11 months of 1950, total was barely $65 billion. Thus, there is almost a $7 bil lion increase between the two periods. Now it is Interesting to note that while ofllcial cry Is that increased defense calls for In creased expenses, only $3 billion more was spent by defense de partment, leaving $4 billion gob bled up by just general Rovern ment, such as approximately ZO'x. more paid out by federal employees retirement funds.

So is the Council for So cial Action, American Associa tion for the United Nations, and many other similar groups. Needless to say, the Daughters of the American Revolution, the American Legion, have appeared on the negative side. Thus, there is constantly In Washington, clamorous, and ap parently well financed organiza tions, always all out for govern ment to do anything that will contribute to Inflation.
