Firemen Alerted Wednesday But Didn’t Make Trip A fire alvm pvt in at Wilson and Fields Streets resulted in alerting firemen, Wednesday, but a telephone call prevented the truck from leafing file Fire Department buil *y-!. ^ Hie Defense Department is expect ed to agree to a military budget six or seven billion dollars under the re quest made this year. The IMS re quest is being worked out how; sev eral months before it will-reach Con greaa. And though the requestedsum will be down, actual spending next year will probably be up—since ex penditures do not keep pace with authorizations. If Congress economizes on other items, next year, it may be able to balance the budget. But tax reduc tions may not bo enjoyed until the following year. Minor reductions and some special taxes might be re duced, but income tax relief will pro bably not arrive next year. One esti mate forvthia year is a 10 billion dol lar deficit, and expenditures tunning around 00 billions.

The reason most often given is that Ike is still unaccustomed to the poli tician’s role in dealing with the press, jke is accustomed to playing the role pf a military officer, who puts things on and off the record at will, who can readily decline to discuss touchy is sues, in the interest of Security or l?. S, relations. But the press corps in the UJ3.A. is a tough hard-digging swarm of-writers. They pry into any thing with vim.* Stevenson, “ Governor, has had more experfenee in the dvilian’s re lationship with the fourth estate and tins experience is credited with earn ing him the nod over Ike, to a large (octant.
