House Republicans oppose Carter education plan
The Republican Policy Committee voted 12-1 to oppose President Carter's plan to create a separate federal education department, arguing it would erode local control. Rep. Bud Shuster dismissed the notion of limited power, while Rep. John Erlenborn noted strong Democratic opposition. A similar bill stalled last year. The Defense subcommittee approved a supplemental appropriation funding 18 advanced radar planes for NATO and two Navy destroyers at a total cost of about 1.8 billion through 1985, with the U.S. share initially 80.1 million and 41 percent of the total.
