Nixon frees nearly $1 billion in impounded HEW funds
President Nixon ordered release of about 966 million dollars in HEW funds withheld to curb spending. The money funds school projects for needy children and biomedical research, with portions spent in 1974 and 1975. HEW officials note it adds budget pressure for 1975 while highway and environmental funds may stay withheld. The NEA endorsed the bill despite reservations.
