Congress Riles Over Education Aid Battle In Education Bill
Congress erupts over federal aid for schools as Reps. Barden and Lesinski clash citing anti Catholic and anti Negro accusations. The Senate plan would grant 350 million dollars annually with weighted terms favoring public schools, while Barden's substitute limits use to current expenditures and excludes transportation and health aid. Former President Hoover and Gen Eisenhower oppose broad federal grants, drawing fire from Sen. Thomas over Eisenhower’s education ties.
