DDEs record for fiscal years rinaaaiiifo4 10 noH. inclusive, snows iwui surplus years and lour aeticit vears for what is described as a real deficit of $19,111,000,000. Their respective spending records for those six years were: HSl, $257,700,000,000: DDE $419,400, 000.000. Eisenhower is the champ spender. No doubt about that. The Digest tigures leave out ot account, however fiscal years 1052 and 1953. Fiscal year 1952 ended June 30. 1952. when Tru man still had six months and 20 days of White House service ahead of him. The Truman deficit that year was 14.017.000.000. The 1953 fiscal year began on July 1 1052. The 1953 budget was pre- pared by Truman and submitted to Congress in January. 1952 Truman directed government spending from July 1, 1952 until Eisenhower's inauguration on Jan. 20, 1953 by which time the 1933 fiscal year was half gone, half spent. Spending for that fiscal year was a whopping $74,274,000. 000 and the deficit was nearly 10 billion dollars. , SHRINKING DOLLAR Those deficit and spending fig ures would considerably change the trgest's comparison of HST and DDE, although they would not alter the fact that Eisenhower has out-spent 'em all. To the question of who most debased the lovely U.S. buck, the record compiled by the Senate Finance Committee from Bureau of Labor Statistics and Library of Congress material answers up like this: Assuming that the dollar was worth 100 cents in 1939. when Franklin D. Roosevelt was pres ident, it was worth only 51.9 cents 1953 when Truman left office. The dollar lost nearly half of its purchasing power in 14 Demo cratic years. From 1953. when Eisenhower took over, until April of this year. the dollar fell from 51.9 cents to 48.1 cents, a shrinkage of 3.8 cents in about '54 years less than a penny each 12 months. The shrinkage during the 14 pre-i ceding Democratic years was at a rate of about 3.4 cents annually. so, who struck. John? operation described by its origi nators as offering a way of suc cessfully treating some kinds of stroke was reported today. Stroke is a paralysis of some body function such, as sight. speech or movement. It is due to the stoppage of the blood supply to a certain part of the brain, usually because of a clot. When il hits the part of the brain gov erning breathing, the result is of ten fatal Medical science up to now has been able to achieve little toward undoing the damage by stroke and the outlook for curative treat ment has been a dismal one, the sponsors of the new operation said. But a large percentage of the leading to the brain, not to little arteries in the brain itself. These trouble spots in the neck can be reached handily by surgery, they said. Results of 67 of these neck op erations on 50 patients were re ported to the American Heart Assn. by a surgical team from Baylor University. Houston. Tex. The team was made up of Br. E akcy. Dr. Denton A. Cooley and Dr. George C. Morris Jr. X-ray studies showed the clots in these 50 cases to be located in blood vessels of the neck or upper torso. The treatment was to re move the blockading material surgically. Normal circulation was restored to a majority of the patients. Dr. Crawford said, with the return of "that a curative form of treat" ment now is available for manj people with strokes." Stanley Crawford, who reported Ithe lost functioning.
