Johnson Wins On Arab Food Ban But Loses on 2 Fights
Washington AP reports the Senate approved an administration backed amendment to lift part of the House ban on shipments of surplus agricultural commodities to Cairo. The chamber also voted to deny funds for the Veterans Administration and to halt certain closing orders for hospitals and soldiers homes. The measure heads to a conference committee as the administration presses for Senate modified language. Senator Morse argues Egypt’s Nasser is a major Arab leader whose influence shapes American oil policy and foreign affairs, framing the issue around oil security.
