Congress Recess

Fund Bill Dispute

The To-day Easter recess. To
which members of Congress
nave been looking forward. was
IN some danger today because
of deadlock between the House
and Senate over the 1851 mil
lion first deficiency appropria-
ton bill.
Senate Republican Leader
Knowland of California said a
recess resolution would not be
agreed TO until that bill is
passed. and he assumed the
House would not want to 20
home without settling it.
The most urgent item in that
bill is $275 million which the
Social Security Office will need
to meet the Federal share of
assistance payments to the aged,
the blind and to needy children
: The payments are not in dis
pute. but the House is trying to
reduce the so per cent Federal
share of the cost of administer
ing the program in the States
Also In the deadlocked bill are
funds for the Small Business
Administration, for the purchase
OF strategic minerals and a pro-
gram for making cattle feed out
