House Would Cut Interior Dept. Funds
The House Appropriation Committee recommended 87,672,080 for the Interior Department for 1945, 9,151,000 less than secretary Ickes said was needed. It called many cuts across programs, led by a 5,342,000 reduction for the Bureau of Reclamation, and criticized duplicitous activities at the Bureau of Mines and Geological Survey. The panel noted possible negligible effect due to use of unexpended prior funds and rejected new positions for Ickes.
