House committee Favors Large Spending Cuts in Six Agencies
A congressional appropriations panel proposed substantial reductions across six agencies led by the Atomic Energy Commission and Veterans Administration. The draft bill would trim AEC by about 326 million and VA by 354 million in cash and contracts, while preserving medical care funds and limiting civilian training and housing enforcement programs. The committee also called downsizing in three atomic cities and urged fiscal restraint on nonmilitary research.
