Senate Republican Leader Knowland cited 43 million dollars as emergency funds already approved for the year, with Summerfield seeking 49 million. Eisenhower planned a public appeal on budget and defense needs as part of selling his 72 billion dollar program amid a divided Congress.

Compromise Sought On Billboard Control Plan
A compromise bill to regulate billboards on the 41000 mile interstate system is drafted to satisfy varied views. Sen. Gore says the proposal will pass his public roads subcommittee and reach the Senate floor with a May 17 meeting. The bill blends Eisenhower admin plans and Neuberger proposals with subcommittee input. It rewards states that regulate billboards rather than penalizing noncompliance, and offers a liberal exemption for signs deemed in the traveling public’s interest.
