BUDGET BALANCING
Secretary of Defense Charles E.
Wilson has ruled out the possibil
ity of enough cuts in military
spending to balance the budget in
the next fiscal year. He declared^
that $34,000,000,000 would be a
rock bottom figure on military
spending. Both he and Secretary
of the Treasury Humphrey agreed
that higher Federal tax receipts
still might bring the budget into
balance.
