In the matter of debt reduction, Snyder could present a proud administration record. Between Feb. 28 and Sept. 1, the government had retired 14 billion dollars of its obligations. Next to debt reduction, Snyder declared the administrations second primary fiscal objective was a balanced budget. With the present level of taxes, the government actually will have a cash surplus of almost three billion dollars for the present fiscal year, but the accrediting of terminal leave bonds and other items payable in the future to the current budget will produce a paper deficit of two billion dollars.

S. agencies were formulating plans for continuation of necessary aid. Poland, Byelorussia, the Ukraine and China were singled out as nations especially hit by the war and requiring further help. UNRRA aid to Poland has been pointed toward redevelopment of the agricultural economy of the country, the President said.
