The 81st Congress returned to Capi tol Hill for its second session to day and immediately a clamor arose for curbs on red-ink spending. A number of Republicans and Democrats alike joined in the cry for a tighter rein on federal expenditures. House Republican Leader Mar tin of Massachusetts announced the creation of a special G. o. p. "price tag committee" to keep a public watch on Presi dent Truman's Fair Deal spend ing. Chairman Doughton (Demo crat, North Carolina) of the tax writing House Ways and Means Committee told newsmen: "The people are clamoring for economy in government and tax relief." In general terms, President Truman is expected to touch on both those issues in his annual "State of the Union" address before a joint Senate-House ses sion at 1 p. m. tomorrow. Truman will deliver his mes sage personally In the newly decorated, blue-walled House chamber with batteries of tele vision cameras and radio micro phones set up to broadcast the scene to millions of Americans. Optimism Expected Administration lieutenants in dicated today that the President will speak with high optimism of prospects for expanding pros perity. In this vein, House Speaker Rayburn (Democrat, Texas) told newsmen after a preview of the President's message dur ing a White House conference this forenoon: "It looks like the country is in pretty good shape?I never saw it in better shape." Rayburn said he and other Democratic leaders discussed taxes with Truman in a 65-min ute session and suggested a "sin gle package" tax bill, cutting levies "where they pinch" and finding revenue in other places to make up any loss.
