Republicans Call for Half-Billion Dollar Federal Spending Cut
A Republican plan to cut federal expenses by 500 million dollars was introduced in Congress as administration leaders pushed to pass relief and farm funding before the fiscal year ends. Representative Martin of Massachusetts proposed a 10 percent cut on all properly susceptible appropriations, excluding social security, veterans benefits, relief of distress, and debt interest. The party argued lack of action on economy amid administration intransigence. Senate debates stretched into a second week over monetary policy and relief funding, with filibuster threats and requests for higher silver prices. A concurrent fight over a 1.735 billion relief bill and a 1.18 billion agricultural measure pressured lawmakers ahead of Friday deadlines.
