Budget plan eyes domestic programs amid rising outlays
The administration projects federal spending this bookkeeping year at 105 to 107 billion dollars, a record, as the final shape of the new budget unfolds. Moyers said the message to Congress will not seek less than 110 billion, with defense costs rising sharply and tax-increase prospects unclear. Agencies had requested about 125 billion for next July’s year, trimmed to under 115 billion, with possible further cuts. A public struggle over delaying the January 25 submission deadline ended, and Dirksen signaled Republicans will wait for the formal budget. The defense rise could push the deficit toward 7 to 8 billion, while Viet Nam funding is eyed for six months.
