i Vi1.-, Ut, 4. MORGANTOn—In a few Weeks, the President will present the Bud get to Congress outlining the Fed :eral expenditures he proposes for the next fiscal year beginning July 1. For weeks now 'the Bud get has been reviewing Depart mental Agency requests fitting .them into the Administration’s -spending plans. Like all budgets, the January proposal will reflect the philoso phy of its chief architect, the 5resident. In the final analysis, he ust decide how much he will ask to spend, what programs he wants to finance, and 'this will 'represent to a considerable extent his calculated assessment of the Congressional mood. Once it is pre- ( sented, Congress will begin to choose and weigh programs in authorization bills. Later on will come the task of setting the a mounts to be spent in appropria tion measures. As this process be gins, xt is to be noted that for fiscal year 1964-65 now in progress, the Administration sought funds amounting to $98.2 billion. Con gress trimmed this amount by $4.1 billion to appropriations 'tot aling $84.1 billion. Due to the nature of Admin istration commitments, the new budget wil represent at best an uneasy truce between conflicting goals. The Administration is on record as advocating a "sound dol lar". Yet it is all too clear th»t the dollar of today is overburden ed. The Administration is pledged to a thrifty budget. In the un derstanding commonly given that term, this would place a practi cal budget ceiling at or near the $100 billion level. These objectives are complicated by the advocacy of new domestic programs and built-in increases which may be urged for existing programs. New health, education, and poverty programs thus take on a cost context. Current rev enues are expected to fall short of current spending by about $6 billion. Programming for 'the needs of the country is at best a difficult assignment involving many choices and priorities. Tax considerations are deeply involved. Two new tax proposals could have a significant bearing on spending programs. These concern the Administration plans tor the reduction of Federal excise taxes and alocation of a fixed portion of Federal revenues for return to the State. It is important to note ‘that in some of the principal areas where new programs are proposed. Fed eral expenditures currently run at high levels. Federal aid to ed ucation wil amount to $15 billion for the present fiscal year. Public health services are programmed at $2 billion in Federal funds, and Federal welfare assistance pro grams are scheduled to get al most $3 billion during the current fiscal period. Again this year it is almost certain that Congress will be re quested to enact appropriations requiring Treasury borrowing. It would be viewed as ui.usual if Con gress is not so urged. “Deficit fi nancing” has become standard pro cedure in annual Federal budgets. Even so, there prevails that un easy feeling that brings new lan guage each year about the so called values of finance g expendi tures in easy fashion. Whatever the Administration proposes in the new Budget, Con- I gress wil have the ultimate task j of deciding which, if any, of the j new and old programs requiring | authorization are to be accepted, | and how much each Department ! and Agency shall receive. This legislative task will occupy much of the session with the final de cisions not likely before summer comes.
