Move To Cut Soil and Water Conservation Funds
President Johnson proposed reducing the conservation budget to 120 million for 1965 from 220 million this year. The House Appropriations Committee is expected to retain 220 million, while opponents plan a floor fight and potential roll call. The National Limestone Institute advocates for the higher figure. Conservation payments support soil and water practices such as liming, pond and dam construction, and terracing.
