The budget bureau says business profits and Income of war work ers will be reduced In the new fiscal year by a 20-bllllon-dol-lar slash in government war spending. And if tltc war were to end before next summer, there would be an even greater cut back in spending, with heavier effects on oconomlc life in America. The extent of unemployment in such a case would be deter mined by the effectiveness of re conversion plans. Those forecasts were made In a revised budget for the fiscal year 1946, which started a month ago. On the assumption the war will continue through the fiscal year, the bureau estimated war spending at $70,000,000,000, compared with $90,000,000,000 in the last fiscal year. It estimated total federal spending at $85,000,000,000, compared with $100,000,000,000 In fiscal 1045. But Budget Director Harold D. Smith was not content with the assumption the war would go on another 1 1 months. Ho termed It of "utmost Im portance" that all government agencies "prepared their plans not only for continuing war but also for early pence and demob ilization." Smith put much stress on "the speed and effectiveness of re conversion." He said that If the war ends before next summer "we would then be faced with the problem of rapid demobiliza tion. This would Inevitably mean more unemployment. Its extent would depend on the degree to which our reconversion machin ery is geared to take Its full load at an early date."
