Congress Fights Clock in Stopgap Bid to Fund Government
Washington Congress moves to pass a continuing resolution to fund federal agencies after Oct 1 as the Senate opens work on a stopgap measure. House already approved similar action. Negotiations will resolve differences as lawmakers seek to avoid a shutdown and pressure from debates over the Clinch River reactor and public service jobs. The White House signals willingness to accept a funding level allowing Pentagon spending at current levels until a new bill is approved.

Syracuse Budget Proposes 83 Tax Hike Amid Cuts
The mayor warned the 1983 police roster will total 23 more positions than 1970, despite population dropping from 175000, citing a high per capita officer ratio. Several city staff cuts follow, while county takeover of Weights and Measures may shift costs, as the Board of Estimate seeks to balance lean state aid and reduced county revenue with a $12 city school tax hike and $16 county levy. The budget moves to Common Council hearings with a March 31 action target.
