Byrd Trial to Block Kennedy Loan Authority Vote
Sen Harry Byrd leads a likely doomed fight against President Kennedy's request for borrowing authority to fund five years of economic development loans abroad. The Byrd amendment would require annual congressional approval, with a Senate vote set after seven hours of debate. Byrd warns of poor risk loans and $29.7 billion in debt from interest if repay ments fail. The administration argues for strong support, while Byrd claims 43 to 45 senators backing him. The Senate plans to stay in session to vote on the amendment as other foreign aid business is held.
