23 Budget Requests Cut Hard
The House appropriations committee cut deeply into the 1954 federal budget, halting new low rent housing programs and disposing of home mortgages and local housing bonds. The plan pared $721 million from Truman-era estimates, claiming savings from not starting new public housing units in 1954 while proposing further agency cuts and restrictions on auto purchases.

Budget Cuts Move Through House Affect Science Agencies
The draft bill requests an $1,800,000,000 White House request for the White Atomic Energy Commission and related agencies, with the FCC budget sliced to 7.1 million, and lowered support for the National Science Foundation and Aeronautics, while delaying TVA moves and restricting housing loans for educational institutions. The package limits government architectural use and shifts public building design to private firms.
