Congress Focuses on Eisenhower Budget Across Departments
House economists pressed the 2.8 billion dollar Labor and Health, Education and Welfare budget with amendments aiming to probe programs. The House reduced the budget by 20.2 million, while the Senate halted a rivers and harbors bill with pet projects. The week also saw a push for a constitutional amendment on presidential disability and civil rights bill delays. Senate action on Teamster ties and grain CCC sales drew attention amid broader budget battles. Former Civil Service Commissioner Philip Young won Senate approval as ambassador to Holland.
