Battle over foreign aid bill looms in Senate
The Senate opens voting today on a 4.502 billion foreign aid measure amid a potential clash over proposed cuts. A move to trim 600 million from the Senate Foreign Relations Committee's 2.6 billion military aid plan faces a tough fight. House already passed 2 billion for aid. Eisenhower sought 3 billion in military aid and 1.9 billion in economic aid. A rival proposal would cap total at 2.7 billion, but opponents say they have the votes to defeat it. Additional battles target halting Yugoslav aid and reducing India assistance.

Pension Bill Likely Dead In Senate Action
House-passed pension measure, with a 90 dollar monthly boost for World War I veterans, faces slim odds in the Senate. Byrd plans quick review, but a long committee agenda and late-session timing reduce hopes it becomes law. The bill, stripped of higher payments for service-disabled veterans and widows, would cost about 436 million dollars in the first year, raising non service-connected pensions to 15 dollars monthly for disabled veterans and to 80 dollars for seniors or long-term recipients.
