Foes seek to cut HUAC budget amid Viet Nam drift
Congressional foes pressed a move to reduce the House Committee on Un-American Activities budget from 380000 as supporters warned the full request would pass. The debate comes with a possible Klan inquiry and a 1963 voting reference. Rural Lutheran leaders warn remapping legislatures reshapes rural power and calls for a responsible minority.
