Johnson to seek 12 to 13 billion for Viet Nam effort
President Johnson plans to ask Congress for an extra 12 to 13 billion dollars for Viet Nam. The request could go to Capitol Hill next week, near 13 billion, to be available in the current fiscal year ending June 30. About 5 billion would be spent by mid 1966 mainly to replace military stocks. Added to 1.7 billion last August and 700 million in May, total increased Viet Nam funding would reach 14 billion plus. No tax hike planned yet for 1967 budget, but critics warn of higher taxes or inflation.
