BUDGET BILL FIGHT
WILL BEGIN TODAY

The real fight on the budget bill
will start in the House this after
noon when the bill comes on for con-
sideration section by section.
Discussion Of the proposed new
plan for making appropriations for
government expenditures has been
confined heretofore to general debate
on the necessity for economy and a
checking system applied to Govern
ment departments to shut off ex-
travagant demands and wasteful ex-
penditures. =
Beginning today the six Important
committees which will have their ap-
propriating privileges taken from
them are to be heard in opposition
to the plan
Affects Six Committees.
These committees are Agriculture,
Military Affairs, Naval Affairs, For
eign Affairs, Postoffice, and Post
committees have in their membership
something over 100 members of the
Hous and should they league togeth-
er in opposition to the budget plan
they can make it's passage difficult.
Chairman Haugen. of the Agricul-
ture COMMITTEES, has taken his stand
already against the proposed plan.
He asserts that, ii will not make for
economy in expenditures. but will
increase the salary burden on the
Government.
1t is proposed, he argues. to crea.e
two important new bureaus, the Bu-
reau of Budget to give information
to the President and the office %
Comptroller General of the United
States.
These bureaus will be filled with
high salaried officials. Present Gov
ernment officials doing the work to
be transferred to the new bureaus
win be continued in office in some
capacity, resulting in heavy addi-
tionaI expenditures by the Govern
ment-
Further, Haugen does not think
that the proposed general appropria-
tions committee Of thirty-five mem
bers can go as fully or as thorough
1y into the needs of the Agriculture
Department as does the Agriculture
Committee. which deals solely with
this department and it's approval Of
appropriations will not be as just
or equitable as made under the pres
ent system.
