DomesticSpendingCui
Soon TO Be Decided;
First Attempt Fails
BY the Assoeiofed Press

The Senate headed today to-
ward a decision test on a strong
bipartisan drive to cut home front
spending. The idea is to provide
more money, men and materials
to check Communist aggression.
The first attempt to make a
major across-the- board slash in
the non-defense expenditures
contained in the $34 1888, ,000, 900
appropriations bill for fiscal 1851
failed yesterday.
The Senate shouted down an
amendment offered by Senator
Douglas, Democrat. Of Illinois
which he estimated would slash
ST. billion off Federal construction
projects, supplies, materials. pay
rolls, travel and communications
Bi-Partisan Plan Backed.
In contrast to the Douglas
amendment, which found little
advance support. the bipartisan
cut proposed by Senators Bridges,
Republican, of New Hampshire
and Byrd, Democrat, of Virginia
already has pledges of support
from more than 80 Senators.
The amendment calls for 10
per cent slash in almost all the
non-defense items in the appro-
priations measure. Sponsors esti-
mated it would save $500 million.
Although President Truman has
asked administration forces to
junk it, Senator Bridges has pre-
dicted it will get the almost unan-
imous support of Republicans and
enough aid from Democrats to in
sure passage.
Senate Democratic Leader Lu-
cas- of Illinois announced he would
hold the Senate in a night ses-
sion tonight, if necessary, to COM
plete action on the so-called "one-
package" spending bill which con-
tains money for most Federal
agencies for the year ending next
June 80.
Smith Wants Exclusions.
In advance of the debate on the
Bridges-Byrd proposal, the Senate
first will take up an amendment |
offered to it by Senator H. Alex
ander Smith, Republican, of New
Jersey. 1t would exclude the
Marshall Plan, foreign arms aid
program, Point Four, internation-
al children's welfare fund and as
Sistance for Palestine refugees
from the proposed cut.
The outcome is an open ques-
tion.
The Senate earlier in the week
registered attempts to trim the
MARSHALL Plan and, instead, in
creased new funds by $58, ,O70, 900
to $2,450,000,000. But many Sem
ators feel that any general cut
in domestic spending must be ap-
Piled to foreign aid-exclusive of
arms aid-as well.
Tart Remarks Exchanged.
Senator Douglas and Chairman
McKellar of the Appropriations
Committee threw some caustic re-
marks at each other in debate
over the Douglas amendment.
Senator Mcclellan called the
across Switchboard proposal "un-
explainable" and told Senator |
Douglas he should apologize for
putting in this remarkable amend-l
ment." Senator Douglas replied
that he assumed he was not sup
posed to take seriously Senator
McKellar's outburst of "ridicule
and satire"
TO date, the biggest cut the
Senate has made has been the
elimination of a $40 million item
to start construction of a new
Senate Office building. 1t has far
more than Offset this by the in
crease in funds for the Marshall
Plan, a $16 million boost in point
four funds to $26 million, and
several other lesser hikes in COM
mittee figures.
