Chang Chun San, this morning. One admitted a U. N. plane "did inadvertently" pass over the conference zone Aug. 16. The Reds complained of the violation the next day.

Economizing, Defense Spending Slowdown Keeps Government From Going Deeper Into Red Washington U.R) President Truman reported Wednesday that congressional economizing and the slowdown . in defense spending caused by the steel strike will keep the government from going as far into the red this year as he originally figured. In a mid-year budget review, he said government spending in fiscal 1953 will be $6,400,000,000 less than he estimated last Janu ary, tax revenues will run $2, 300,000,000 less, and the federal deficit will be $4,100,000,000 smaller. Here is how Mr. Truman's new estimates stack up beside those he made when he presented the budget to Congress eight months ago: New Estimate Income ... $63,700,000,000 Spending $79,000,000,000 Deficit $10,300,000,000 January Estimate Income ..... $71,000,000,000 Spending $85,400,000,000 Deficit $14,400,000,000 Republican congressmen were quick to claim credit for the im proved federal financial picture.

The current Issue of the Con gressional Record indicates Con gress cut tne CTCiiacni ?bi,- 360.000.000 ' appropriations re quests by some $8,390,000,000, Figures Don't Jib These figures do not jibe with Mr. Truman's report because the congressional report was a . re capitulation of actual appropria- tions bills, which carry funds for both current and future years' spending. The prospective $10,860,000,- 000 deficit still would be the largest since the end of World War II. . The President's budget review showed cutbacks in all but a few spending estimates. The atomic energy programs and the postal service will cost the government more than k he thoueht in January, the Presi dent said, as will veterans' bene fits, farm price supports ana maritime shipping. Increases Offset But these increases in spend ingtotaling $1,370,000,000 were more than offset by $". 790,000,000 in decreases. Spend ing for U.S. defenses and foreign military aid will be $6,300,000.- 000 less than estimated in Janu ary. Other decreases have hit foreign economic aid, home-front economic ' stabilization, educa tion, and housing. Regarding income, the Presi dent said an anucipaiea iouu, 000,000 boost in personal income tav receipts will be more than overcome by an expected slump of $3,000,000,000 in corporation levies. On the spending side, Mr. Tru man said military outlays aione will be $8,300,000,000. smaller than was figured in drawing up the budget last winter. He attrib uted this to "reduction in apprc- nr ations" bv Congress ana "some slowing of production" as a result of the 55-day steel strike. Swedish-Type Cabin Removed to M vseum Dover, Del.

(InUrnaUoned Soundphct) Children's Visual Difficulties Seen Problem at Seminar Specialists in vision are dis turbed by the number of school children coming into their of fices with ocular defects and vis ual problems which never need to exist, Dr. A. M. Skeffington, visual consultant to the optomet ric extension program, told the optometrists of this area at a seminar here yesterday. Optometrists from the south ern Oregon and northern Cali fornia area gathered at Rogue Valley Country club to attend the graduate seminar in ad vanced study of methods of vis ual care. "The So-called optical defects that have been the stock in trade of men in the remedial field for the last century are now known to be the end results , of visual problems and not the cause of them," Dr. Skeffington stated. Detriments Told "The child with a serious vis ual defect is not only being phy sically distorted - and as . a sec ondary result, made subject to many-sided results of mamutri- tional difficulties and respiratory troubles, but is being hampered in the very effort for which they attend school - learning," he said. Optometrists today are inter ested in working with educators, Parent - Teacher organizations and school boards for the elimi nation of the conditions which produce visual problems, the speaker said. "The drive Is first to eliminate conditions in the class room which produce the defects," he added, "then try by lenses and training to restore to the child his ability to achieve in school according to his capacity, and not hamper him by visual dis tortions that warp him physical ly. scholastlcally and, as an in evitable consequence, in his mental growth and develop ment, j Pre-8chool Recognition Recognition of visual prob lems in the pre-school child is recognized as possibly more im portant in the preventive phase than in school children, Dr. Skeffington said. "The statement by Dr. Arnold Gesell, of the clinic of child de velopment at Yale, that the child's vision can be appraised, supervised and cared for throughout infancy and cnua- hood, if taken seriously by moth ers and the practicing optome trist, can spell deliverance from handicaps that would otherwise be inevitable," he said. Dr. Skeffington held four sem inar sessions for the optometrists in attendance, the entire series being devoted to the considera tion of enhancing the visual achievement of children.

Identity Kept Secret Her identity had been kept secret since the crackdown on an alleged cafe society vice ring started last week with the arrest of younk Jelke. Miss Ward was employed as Miss Raye's secretary when she took an overdose of sleeping pills last May 21. She left a note blam ing her suicide attempt on a thwarted love affair. Police sources said Jelke, 22 year old heir to a $3,000,000 oleomargarine fortune, was re ferring to Miss Ward when he blamed a spiteful jilted sweet heart for his arrest. He has de nied charges that he ran a $500-a-night call girl racket involving habitues of plush New York nightclubs. Jelke said, without naming Miss Ward, that he dated a girl for about a year and they broke up five months ago. "She might have thought I was going to marry her, but I never proposed," he said. Miss Ward has testified before a grand jury investigating the vice charges which landed like a bomb-shell among the cafe society crowd in Manhattan.
