GOP push to cut space program likely to succeed
Republican leaders led by Gerald Ford unveiled a plan to trim about 200 million more from NASA and Apollo Applications Program budgets.

Ford urged shifting toward broad R and D over hardware stockpiling and aligning AAP with the Air Force orbital effort.
