Byrd Will Press Fight
To End Some Agencies

Senator Byrd, Democrat, of Vir-
eipia said late today that he would
make a fight on the Senate floor
to have non-defense appropriations
for such agencies as the c. c. c.,
N. y. A. and Farm Security Ad-
ministration cut out of the budget
entirely.
He said he would press for adop-
ton of the recommendations of the
Joint Committee on Reduction Of
Non-Essential Federal Expenditures
This committee stated that the
budget could be reduced by a total
of s1,301 075,000 by elimination Of
appropriations for such agencies as
the three mentioned.
The President, in his budget rec
concentrations, suggested a saving
of approximately $1,000 100000 by
reduction of the appropriations for
these non-defense agencies. Sena-
tor Byrd said that he would seek to
have the appropriation eliminated
entirely and added that he believed
that a total saving of between
81 900 900 900 and $4,000 100000 could
be effected.
