THROAT sour?

(continued from Page ii

Provincial Premier has vastly more influence with the Pcderai cebinet. than a member of the senate. and Ch: Illllld Premier mty hgvg ox. . for remaining at his present post on that account. ' In theory. Mr. Jones would be the "Junior Senator" from Prince Ed- ward Island when his call to the Upper House is made. In practice however. there is no doubt but thgf: he would be the leader of the ls- land delegation to the senate. and would be" consulted on every im- portant matter by Liberal members of the Commons from the Province.- .BHl.It appointments are unlike-' ly to be made before the opening of the forthcoming session. The Government's majority in the sen- lcr branch is so great that there is no political reason for hasten- ing the filling of v ies. More- over idiere is no specal presmre from the general public to bring the senate up to strength. What pressure there is. is largely from in- dividuals operating through their local or provincial Liberal associa- tions. Unlike many new appointees to the Senate. Mr. Jones is no streng- er to Ottawa. to the usages on Parliament Hill nor to the Senate chamber itself. with his fellow- Prcmiers, Mr. Jones sat in the Ben- ate Chamber during. the Dominion- Psovlncial conference of 1940. He is particularly well-known in top civil service and departmental circles, and for is time was it gov- ernment official in Ottawa himself. Senate appointments are made directly by the Prime Minister, and while Mr. St. Laurent has the righ: to name anyone he wants to fill the P.iE.f. vacancy. it is very doubtful if he would choose an as- pirant other than the Premier. Mr. Jones' record of leadln, his party to success in many elections is too impressive to be overlooked.

The new budget calls for actual expenditures. in the 1952 fiscal year beginning next July 1. th would be about 324.400.000.000 grea than this year's estimated spending and 031.500.000.000 greater than last year's. This is a two-year increase of 78 per cent.

On top of the 871.594.000.000 to be

spent in fiscal 1932. Truman asked Congress to vote a22.835l000,000 which would be spent a the fis- cal year ends. This hr the grand total to 891.429.000.000. The new budget would boost the U.S. public debt to the neighbcrhood of s71e.son,ooo.ooo if new taxes are notvlevied. This would be an aver- age debt of 81.814 for each man. woman and child in the United States. '

Taxes For Deficit

Truman made it clear he wants every dollar of this deficit to be made up from new taxes so as to put the preparedness program on a pey-es-you-go basis.

Truman said he hoped to have his

tax proposals ready for Congress within a month. The defence effort will ra'ise the cost of atcmic energy development from s8l8.000.000 this year to an estimated 81.271.000.000 next yen. Without elaborating. Truman said some of the money will go for "now and lmiprovod weapons." Undoubt- edly this includes work on the hyd- rogen bomb.

All told. 52.510.000.000 of the 0'11,- 594.000.000 budget was for major national security programs.

Truman also asked:
