Budget Battle Persists as Congress Pushes Spending
Dispatches from Washington show Senators and the White House locked in a budget clash amid a record election year. Florida's George A.

An Oregon paper cites Agriculture spending of $106,100 to produce a tobacco promotion film World of Pleasure, while tobacco labeling requires health warnings on cigarettes.
