“Republicans are more con-I cerned with the dollar for pur-j poses of balancing the budget today,” he said.
Balanced Budget “P r e s i dent Eisenhow er has j been concerned with fiscal policy and a balanced budget. lie i has recently enacted a $4 bil-lioiftiT- under present fiscal year j spending, reducing it to $77 bil-j lion starting July 1.” he said.
However. Eisenhower asked ; for a greater cut. “but the Democrats breached the President’s desires to cut spending.
Little Person Pays “The ordinary citizen pays the hill for inflation because of the j resulting invisible taxation. And i | it is the little person who pays j —the wage - earners, especially those with fixed wages.” he said. Hruska pulled the whip on la-j bor, too, as he compared it to I slaves taking over their master. In quoting Lincoln again, he said, “I would not be a slave,

He referred to Senator John Kennedy <D. Mass.) whose la-j bor-management bill is now up i before Congress.
He criticized the bill for its incompleteness, saying that it j lacked necessary factors to insure a safe program for labor-i manaeement relations.
Bill's Direction Right “Senator Kennedy’s bill is in the right direction, but it doesn't go far enough.”
Hruska himself is sponsoring a labor bill which would include and uphold parts of the Taft-Hartlev Act. The factors, which are not in Kennedy's bill, make secondary boycotts illegal and permit legislation dealing with labor and c^cret balloting in union elections.

Puppet Theater
“Buraku” or puppet theater, | reports Dr. Ellfeldt, serves as the basis for most of the movement in the Japanese theater.

Senator Stan Arkin, w’ho propose dthe committee, declared “We want to see how' much profit the bookstore makes selling books. The way things are now, students don’t stand a chance to bargain.” He said the body would act on behalf of students in attempting to reduce the cost of books.
Competition Battle Arkin pointed out that if the university bookstore would lower its prices, the other bookstores would have to follow suit to stay in competition.
Senior Class President Abe Somer, arguing in favor of the motion accused the bookstores of agreeing to set uniform prices. He asked “Is it the purpose of the bookstore of a non-profit university to make a profit over the amount needed for salaries and expenses?”
FitzRandolph appointed Arkin and Senators Dayle Barnes and Mike Loshin to the committee.
Barnes Objects Barnes objected to the investigation. saving “Actions such as this and the ‘professor evaluation” plan incite the Faculty Senate to violent deeds. Now the bookstore manager will be incited to violent deeds.” He indicated that, he didn't think the bookstores prices is within the
