Senate Approves War on Poverty Plan by Narrow Margin
The Senate backed President Johnson's war on poverty bill by about a two to one vote, sending it to the House where a Rules Committee decision is due. The measure faces GOP criticism led by Barry Goldwater who called it a hodgepodge of programs. The bill funds 412.5 million for education and training, 315 million for community anti poverty efforts, and a 50 dollar monthly pay for volunteer workers, with various state veto amendments approved and farm and small business aid included.
