This gross deficit total was offset by surpluses of $15 9 billion, leaving a net deficit of $25.2 billion for the period. This net deficit for the postwar period is three times as great as totalnearly Federal expenditures for any peacetime year prior to 1940. Foundation analysts point out that Uncle Sam was forced to use red ink in eight of the thirteen postwar years. There have been only five postwar years in which surpluses were recorded. Actually the Federal Government has been able to balance its budget only five times in the past 29 years. The Federal Government ended the 1959 fiscal year with a deficit of $12.5 billion.
