Public Works Bill Battle Shapes Up
Washington Republicans sharpened a critique of a political slush fund within Kennedy era public works on a 1.5 billion plan. The Senate would consider a modified bill Monday with Mansfield expecting Tuesday passage. Dirksen warned against standby authority enabling the President to trigger projects in a recession, calling it political. The measure trims the request to 750 million for immediate jobs and another 750 million contingent on 5 percent unemployment, allowing presidential initiation of nonauthorized projects.
