Hungary Faces
Severe Shortage
Of Food by July
UNITED NATIONS, N.Y, UP)—
U.N. observers reported today
that revolt-tom Hungary faces a
severe food shortage and 12 per
cent unemployment by mid-year.
The four-man mission visited
Budapest Jan. 4-7 to look into
relief needs as a result of the
rebellion against Soviet domina
tion.
The group said that to stave off
the food shortage Hungary needs
440,000 tons of various foods; 14,-!
500 tons of steed, and 10,150 tons I
of chemical fertilizer.
The food items included 400,000 !
tons of wheat, 20,000 tons of sug- j
ar, 10,000 tons each of lard and j
tallow, and 5,000 tons of lemons, j
The observers approved a sug- !
gestion from the international
committee of the Red Cross,
which has been distributing U.N.
relief goods in Hungary, that
Hungary be given needed foods
and farm supplies but that they
in turn be sold to the Hungarian
people thru normal economic
channels and at “the basic aver
age world prices.”
The mission confined itself en
tirely to Hungary’s economic sit
uation <and relief needs. The Hun
garian government still refuses
to admit U.N. political observers.

Democratic Senators Will Look Into
Proposed Cut of Air Force Budget
By EDWIN B. HASKINSON
WASHINGTON, GPV—Sen. Rus
sell (D-Ga) said yesterday he is
looking into a proposed $1,209,
000,000 cut from last year in auth
orizations for Air Force funds.
Both he and Sen. Jackson ID
Wash) said in interviews they are
pleased with President Eisenhow
er’s budget proposals to increase
actual spending by all three ser
vices during the year ending
June 30, 1958. But both said they
will question military officials
closely, about budget plans.
The budget Eisenhower sent to
Congress yesterday proposes a
$582 million increase, to $18,472,
000,000 in next year’s Air Force
spending from both old and new
appropriations. Authorization for

new spending, at $16,481,000,0f>0,
'would be $1,209,000,000 below the
amount Congress voted for the
current year.
The President’s message said
“the new obligational authority
needed for the Air Force procure
ment program for the fiscal year
1958 is less than it .otherwise
would have been because of the
additional appropriations for this
purpose voted by the Congress
last year.”
Gen. Nathan F. Twining, Air
I Force chief of staff, had testified
J last summer the Air Force would
need between $22 and $23 billion
of new spending authority. He
said in a speech in Goldsboro,
N.C., Wednesday night that the
new budget will not give his ser
vice all it believes it should have.
No budget ever does, he said.
But he added that it “will en
able us to carry thru the next
fiscal year with the minimum
force that I consider necessary,
without undue risk.”
