Byrd Warns Senators On Financing
Senator Byrd warns against large increases in appropriations risking a low cash balance in the Treasury and potential debt limit expansion. He notes the house approved $922.9 million for Agriculture and farm benefits, higher than Roosevelt estimates, and argues for prudent balance maintenance to avoid debt-limit increases. He cites January budget projections and lack of data on $700 million from government corporations.

Reductions In Insurance On Vehicles In Virginia
Virginia proposes substantial cuts in motor vehicle insurance rates. The plan, backed by the National Bureau of Casualty and Surety Underwriters, would lower rates about 15 percent for private passenger cars and 25 percent for basic commercial vehicles, with new classes Al and B to reflect usage. The measure targets 15,905 cars in Virginia for rate reductions totaling about $47,654, and cites lower losses per car as experience shows costs dropping.
