Johnson presses cuts to fund Great Society and Vietnam
President Johnson urged spending reductions to offset rising costs of his Great Society and the Vietnam war. He noted major program spending pushed the budget up 4.5 billion, with total outlays rising 2 billion due to efficiency gains and cuts to nonessential programs. He warned of a tougher year ahead and spoke to a task force on savings. The Federal Reserve reported June industrial output up and employment strong. A U.S. survey said Red China influenced Communist parties in several nations outside the Soviet sphere. The Shriners wrapped their annual meeting with a parade down Pennsylvania Avenue supporting crippled children hospitals.
