Aid Bill Passage Predicted by House Members
Washington June 15 senior members of the House Foreign Affairs Committee said the Senate 57 25 vote on the aid bill should speed its House passage. Rep Carnahan predicted the committee would finish the 3 637 000 000 measure by the Fourth of July. The action trims Eisenhower era totals but leaves a two year, debt level to be set by the upcoming appropriation bill. Closed hearings are planned with Defense Department officials next week as the split on one year versus longer terms remains.
