This yearthe President has unveiled a fat $221 billion budget lion for which the lion-tamers in Congress already have their whips and chairs ready. The problem is that the budget the President has unleashed on the Legislative Branch is not merely a bloated tabby that is a little hungry: It is a full -fledged monster that will swallow the poor lion-tamers· whips. chairs and all if they don't recognize it for what it is before it is too late. As always. Democrats aod Republicans are most concerned with a malignant deficit that has grown so out of control that it cannot even be estimated accurately from yearto year. Last year's deficit, originally calculated to be at or around $154 billion will probably exceed $17 billion. The President is a steadfast supponerofbudget cuts rather than tax increases as a means of making up the revenue shonfall. but it is clear that a combination of both is necessary. In order to do this, however the Administration must have a clear picture of America ·s economic needs which. sadly. it does not. Two of the programs hit with drastic budget cuts were programs that. 11 the President's rhetoric is to be be)ieved, could have expected to escape the budget knife. Though American farn1ers are in the fifth year of one of the most devastating agricultural depressions in history. and despite pledges of suppon from the Presi dent, farm subsidies have been trimmed by 13 percent for fiscal 1988.

What ernment by the numbers. educational and cultural opportunities were lost while the central library was used as a pawn in a political game? Alexandroffbelieves the loss is immeasurable. Yet. the city wants to add another page to the library story before construc tion can begin on the new central library at State Street and Congress Parkway. The library board is considering holding a national competition to find the best design for the central library. Budget cuts But Chicago has gone without a central library for more than 10 years and now the city will have to wait longer while architects put a fancy cover on a very basic concept. A library is only as great as the books aod knowledge inside of it. ltdoes llQI matter what the library looks like.
