George Voices Views Moderate Debt Hike Supported
Senator George says he would back a reasonable rise in the national debt limit if needed. He attended a White House briefing on Eisenhower program and still finds any increase near 275 billion distasteful. Senator Flanders similarly supports a possible 10 billion increase to avoid using it, praising recent efforts to cut spending. The Senate Finance Committee debates a boost as some members oppose it. The debt ceiling is near the limit with Treasury urging action. Millikin stresses careful action and awaits full figures on social security expansion before final tax decisions.
