The measure sponsored by Rep. John E. Van Augburg of North East survived a fierce party line battle as Republicans struck down amendments. The welfare package would remove about 4,400 public assistance employees from civil service, split the aid program into two administrations, deny benefits to able bodied unemployed who refuse work, and impose fraud controls.
