Solons Chide Nixon Regime On Budget Policy
The House Appropriations Committee scolded the administration for not budgeting enough to meet the nation’s needs in natural and human resources. The $2.27 billion bill largely funds the Interior Department for the coming fiscal year, with cuts in arts, humanities, Smithsonian, and parks offset by increases for Indian services and welfare. The panel urged foresight in long term resource management and noted a $4.9 million net cut from the president’s request. Major line items include $529 million for the Bureau of Indian Affairs and $388 million for the Forest Service, with a constraint on timber sales for export to boost domestic lumber supplies.
