Kennedy Tells Press
Judgment Would Be
Premature Now
WASHINGTON (UPI) Presi-
dent Kennedy feels Lie U S -Russian
exploratory talks on Berlin
must go on "for a reasonable pe-
riod" before it can be determined
whether they are doing any good
Kennedy told the 378 reporters
at his news conference Monday
that any judgment on the value
of the talks would be prema-
ture. The news conference Kenne-
dys first since Nov. 29 ranged
over a wide field of subjects
from international trade to civil
rights.
The President sa'd lie hoped
the talks between U S. Ambassa-
dor to Russia Llewellyn Thomp-
son and Soviet Foreign Minister
Andrei Gromyko would continue.
However he refused to be
pinned down on his idea of what
would be a reasonable period
in which to tell whether the talks
were leading to a solution.
If progress were berng made
or if there were evidence that
progress could be made . .then
the time would be different than
it would be if t.iere was no evi-
dence of any meeting of minds"
he said.
Putting on record what he has
been saying privatelv. Kennedy
told newsmen that tearing down
the Communist wall m Berlin

Russian military reaction that
could have taken us down a
rocky read.

Surplus to Keep
Balance Pledge
WASHINGTON (UPI) Presi-
dent Kennedy is expected to send
Congress Thursday a $92 6 billion
spending budget for fiscal 1963
including more than $5 billion for
the U. S. m an-on-th e-moon project
and other space exploration.
The budget for the 12 months
starting July 1 will be the larg-
est for a peacetime year. But
Kennedy forecasting revenues at
a record $93 billion will offer a
$400 million surplus to keep his
pledge to submit a budget in the
black.
Military spending as it has for
many years will be the biggest
single item in the budget ac-
counting for more than half of all
outlays. Administration sources
said the spending figure would be
about $48 5 billion.
The President plans to ask $4 9
billion for foreign aid it was
learned. This would be about $465
million less than he requested
last year.
Kennedy was said to be asking
nearly $4 billion for the National
Aeronautics and Space Adminis-
tration. It would not be spent en-
tirely m fiscal 1963 in all prob-
ability. However the agency
would spend considerably more
than this years $1 3 billion.
The President also was expect-
ed to ask Congress to appropri-
ate an additional $1 5 billion for
development of boosters and
ether space probe equipment by
the Defense Department Atomic
Energy Commission and Weath-
er Bureau.
Achievement of the revenue
surplus envisioned by the Presi-
dent will depend on many things
over which the administration has
cnly limited control and influ-
ence. The deficit in this years budg-
et understood to be more than
$7 billion is a major factor in
the Presidents desire to put fis-
cal 1963 in the black. He wants
to wipe out any impression that
he is sacrificing fiscal soundness
in implementing his foreign and
domestic programs.

sides.
