Taber Named GOP Man of the Hour in Budget Drive
Rep John Taber of New York 38th District emerges as the central figure in the Republican budget cuts driving Congress toward a vast economy program. As chair of the House Appropriations Committee, he pushes to trim federal spending, defend military redactions, and back President Truman’s budget limits while facing Democratic opposition and criticism from government workers. Taber, age 67, is portrayed as tireless, directing committee work personally and resisting calls to run for higher office.
