Ike Senate Test Near Over USIA Budget Fight
President Eisenhower backed USIA expansion in policy talks, while Senate Democratic leaders Mansfield and Johnson prepared to trim the agency’s 106,100,000 dollar budget for the new fiscal year. House cuts leave USIA, State, Justice, and judiciary totals at 63,799,793, with Johnson’s subcommittee weighing the House-approved figures. Mansfield warned Congress must act responsibly, advocating consolidation into the State Department and substantial reductions despite the President’s stance.
