Nixon vetoes bill cutting off funds for bombing Cambodia
The Senate approved a 770 million dollar foreign military aid bill, far below Nixon’s request, with 50 to 42 votes. The measure aims to end or limit U S military assistance programs and would block funding for bombing programs in Laos and Cambodia, while the House weighs related actions and spending authority.

House Restores Funds For Health and Education
The House approved a bill restoring most of Nixon cuts to health and education programs by a 347 to 58 vote, boosting HEW to 31.5 billion and Labor to 827.5 million plus 487.2 million for related agencies. The proposal preserves the OEO antipoverty program run by community action agencies and could halt the administration’s plan to close it. If the Senate agrees, this action delays cuts until June 30, 1974.

WWTI Budget Sees 17 Percent Increase With Stable Tax
Western Wisconsin Technical Institute district board approves a 1973-74 budget of 5.29 million dollars, about 17 percent higher than this year, while maintaining a 1.7 mill tax levy on equalized property value. The board reserves discretion to adjust the levy based on future state aid and federal support. The district expects enrollment gains of 10 to 15 percent next fall and notes total district property value rose to 1.355 billion, with La Crosse County and city shares increasing despite lower percentages. The meeting saw little public turnout and included actions on tuition, borrowing 750,000, a school bus maintenance agreement, officer re-elections, parking ramp study, and staff hirings and resignations.
