Hear our Clearance Sale offer right awayl Saturday Truman accused the ad ministration of "misrepresentation and demagoguery." Then In a newa conference here yesterday he said the Republican regime has fallen "100 per cent under the domina tion of big business." Truman In his latest attack de scribed the Securities and Ex change Commission as "a prime example" of regulatory commls alons "packed as never before with people who came from the ranks of the Industries they are supposed to regulate." He said Republican appointees to the National Labor Relations Board have "reversed a number of settled interpretationa of the law to the disadvantage of labor. "The secretary of agriculture." he aaid. "campaigns against the programs he is supposed to admin ister and then uses their failure to argue that support prices ought to be lowered." Truman said he thought the rec ord would show "that this sane timonloua administration is having its own troublea with corruption." which he aaid was the "deliberate use of the power of the executive branch to undermine the laws it Is sworn to execute 'faithfully so that their benefits flow to the privi leged few instead of to all our citisena. "One glaring example of this Is the Dixon-Yates mess," he said. Turning to what he termed the "fantastic" Republican campaign promises of 1952, Truman said: "Somehow the notion seemed to have gotten abroad that all. you had to do to balance the budget was just to behave nicely If those wicked Democrats weren't such terrible spendthrifts, the budget would really balance Itself. Well, what happened? We are now in the third year of the dispensation i He added that the last time there of big business and we have no I was any balancing of the budget balanced budget yet."
