SATURDAY, MARCH 30, 1946 It is of course regrettable that some important time was devoted to ambasting ¢f the Governor in the Senate, but for this he has no one to blame but himseif. A more | diplomatic executive would never have forced such a | thing to a head, but would have attempted cooperation | a purge of, legislators not agreeing | 3 with, rather with him.

The proposal will recommend itself to many critics of the present hap- | hazard system of vcting appropriations without setting ovi 11 limits to expenditures and without relating contemplatad total expenditures to revenues.

If it turns out that prospective outlays greater than estimated total receipts, Congress then be required to approve the creation of diticnal Federal debt to cover the deficit.

But there is a crying | need for a comprehensive survey of the kind proposed to enable Congress to control expenditures (HECH\,PI\ and relate them to income. A preview of this sort would not only serve to check extravagance, but it would result in a better balanced spending program. { The existing system of divided authority makes it {much easier for departments, agencies and ntergst groups succ ully to press their claims for funds in disregard of the demands that are being urged by other groups. If all such spending proposals were brought together and subjected to scrutiny, the chances for an equitable apportionment of funds would be greatly improved.

For months Revercomb had been member of a subcommittee to pass on the Federal Science Bill. But despite that he still wanted more delay. The Bill is one of the most badly needed- in the Government. Scien- tific research is now the crux of modern warfare, and the‘ Science Bill provides for that research. The Bill is one of the most care- fully written of any before the Senate.
