Harris Criticizes Ike For Budget Slashes

"The Eisenhower Administration has gone in too much for economy and not enough for needed Government services," charged Seymour E. Harris '20, professor of Economics, in a letter to the New York Times last week.

He noted that the size of the national debt has declined over the last ten years by about one-half in relation to the gross national product. He criticized "unwarranted slashes of security and welfare outlays, and excessive burdens on state and local government."
