The Waterbury Democrat., 1939-01-18


 The New Deal master minds got wind that Senate Republican leaders were secretly uneasy over the $i50 ,000 900 cut. Also, with the COP minority in the Senate much smaller than in the House, the Administration figured there was fighting chance to hold enough Senate Democrats in line to restore the slash.
 So to keep the door open for the boys in the House to rec verse themselyes without embar- rassment, in the event the Senate does approve the original budget, the New Deal leaders did not in- sist on a record vote. It was long shot, but 1t was the only one left.
 Senate Republican filters are caused by two factors
 1. Fear Of adverse public re- action lo cutting relief in mid winter, Privately COP leaders report they are being deluged with telegrams and letters from local officials and business men strongly advising against WPA cut at this time,
 2. Concern that if the WPA appropriation Is cut and busi- ness conditions slump, Roosevelt will be able 10 alibi it by blam- ing lhe COP, On the other hand fl S875,000, 900 Is voted and there Is . recession anyway, he will have no defense,
 The Republican chiefs admit they are caught in dilemma They are strongly for economy but al the same time afraid that if the i'd is Glamped down too abruptly on government spending, there will he another economic n0sesdlYe and they will get the brlekbals for il,
 Older heads among them are r0unseling 10 paly 0lf the s87b,- 900 GOO fund but l0 crack down hara on lhe regular WPA and other spending proposak ln the spring,
 NOTE senator Bill Rorah has privately served n0tlo0 on his COP colleagues that he win not stand for q relief cut and will fight such a move on the senate floor
