Bright Prospects For Road Plan Passage In 1956
Hot Springs Va prospects for congressional approval of a multibillion dollar highway program next year grew brighter after a statement by Commerce Secretary Weeks. He said the administration would accept bonds or a mix with user tax revenue to win enactment, despite Congress’ rejection of Eisenhower and Democratic plans this year. The plan would raise about 21 billion dollars over 30 years, with competing bills proposing 12 to 15 billion more funded by automotive taxes. House Speaker Rayburn warned passage this year was unlikely, but both parties pressed for early next year action, amid a business council meeting endorsing the effort and Weeks urging support for highway funding.
