WASHINGTON, Sept. 11. (U.R)—
President Truman’s stop-gap Na-
tional Defense program was ex-
pected today to hold the anti-
inflation line for upward of two
months as the nation begins its
second great rearmament effort
in 10 years: , *
The objectives:
1. To make the nation both an
arsenal of Democracy and an
armed camp.
2. Pay as we go.
3. Prevent inflation.
It is basically a voluntary pro-
gram. The President described
it Saturday night in his broad-
cast as a first installment of
things to come.
A compulsory program, limit-
ed at first, is indicated as install-
ment No. 2.
Even limited resort to price or
wage controls is not expected
until after the election. Ration-
ing at the retail level where it
would confront the consumer
himself probably is even more
distant.
But industrial allocations and
credit curbs already are here.
Industrial allocations are a
form of rationing. Such vital
commodities as steel, copper, Un
and rubber ban be diverted from
ture to guns, tanks, munitions. I sands presently deferred because
Mr. Truman’s broadcast Wa*f
accompanied by two executive
orders. The speech and orders
fitted into the general situation
to create a future like this:
Overall: Speedy expansion of
the armed services to 3,000,000
while we pour men, money and
armaments into Western Eu-
rope. This will require almost
unbelievably higher taxes and
will substantially lower the
American standard of living for
years to come.
Texas: Mr, Trurhan wants to
"pay as we go." Taken literially
that would mean a tax hike next
year of about $18,000,000,000 to
