Chairman Taber (R-NYV of the!
House Appropriations Committee,
complained to the House: “Lvery
single departmental item has been
! padded.”
Sen. Ferguson, said he does not
see how anyone can talk of a budget
that large and at the same time want
to reduce the cost of living. “I think
that the president acts in-bad faith,”
he summed up.
The spending plans of the admin
istration are “a threat to the general
welfare,” said Sen. Dworshak (R-
Idaho.)
Democratic Sen. Byrd of Virginia,
said the budget involves a “danger-
lous gamble with our national sol
vency” and said it is up to congress to
J cut ‘bloated federal expenditures.”
