Texan Says Bond Issue Would
Leave Budget With Big
Deficit Otherwise

beer to meet the interest and

issue included in the bill Of
Representative Patman (DD

Kleberg pointed out the bond
issue would leave the budget with
an annual deficit of SITS, ,000, 900.
A tax of 3 cents on 2.75 per

mately $500,000.O00 a year, he
estimated.

ACTION ON D. c.
BILL DELAYED

Further delay IN the commit
tee report on the District of Co
lumbia appropriation bill and
Senate action thereon appeared
inevitable today because of the
protracted Senate debate on the
general economy bill.
Senator Hiram Bingham (RO
Of Connecticut, subcommittee
chairman in charge of the Dis
trict budget for the next fiscal
year, has been unable to get ap-
proval by the full Appropriations
committee on the measure as
drafted in subcommittee. He
said that Senate action on Dis
trict matters necessarily will
await final vote on the economy
budget because there are several
interlocking problems affecting
the local government.
Bingham is to ask the Senate
group to resume persual of the
subcommittee draft at the earliest
possible moment, but the District
bill is not likely to get before the
upper chamber before the end of
the week he predicted.

woodward is hampered in that
he has only a small fund to care
for the prisoners and that the
