Budget Cut Hopes Teeter On Dawes In 1921 Plan
Washington, Aug. 5. Hopes of the house ways and means committee to reduce this year’s budget rest on Heli and Maria Dawes, director of the budget. The committee aims to trim the budget by one billion dollars and likely will press Dawes to propose a program, hoping for sharp language and decisive action against extravagance. The discussion also touches on state road bonds and constitutional limits, with debate over a $2,000,000 road bond issue and federal aid timelines, urging reductions to avoid extra borrowing.
