Budget battles loom after tough session in Congress
Lawmakers warn next session will bring bitter clashes over spending as Gramm Rudman rules automatic cuts. Senate leaders Byrd and Dole foresee a harsh year with deficits to hit the 1987 target, while 1991 balanced budget goal hangs over all budget talks and a sweeping tax reform earlier in the year.

Experts see farm bill as buying time for farmers
Washington analysts say the long term farm policy Reagan will sign this week will not rescue endangered farmers or rapidly restore export markets. It buys time for debt-laden farmers, stabilizes incomes via subsidies, and may cut feed costs for livestock, dairy, and poultry while pushing consumers and taxpayers toward higher costs later. Prices and bills could rise as program costs reach 60 to 75 billion dollars through 1988.
