Senate Speeds
Final Action on
D. c. Budget
BY JOHN McKELWAY
Star Staff Writer

The Districts $3.50 million
budget is expected to sail
through Congress following its
passage yesterday by the Sem
ate.
A conference with House
members probably will be held
early next week and Senator
Byrd, Democrat of West Vir-
ginia and chairman of the ap-
preparations subcommittee on
District finances, said today
he did not expect any dis
agreement.
Outside of appropriations
slated for the Welfare Depart
ment. the Senate version diff
fers slightly from that passed
by the House in June.
The bill. as approved by the
House. called for an appropria-
tion Of $500 million. The SEN
ate bill is only about $sO5 900
less.
The document itself attracted
little attention in the Senate
yesterday and no controversy.
Rather, the debate-if it can
be called that-was used by a
number of Senators to heap
praise upon Senator Byrd and
the conscientious manner in
which he conducted his probe
Of welfare practices.
Praise for Presentation
Senate leaders such as Ma
tority Leader Mansfield and
cited yesterdays performance
by Senator Byrd who presented
details on the budget without
reference to notes or help from
a staff member.
Senator Mansfield said the
presentation was "unparal-
leled." Senator Humphrey said
he had never seen anything
like it."
Besides rafting off facts and
figures, Senator Byrd sounded
a solemn warning that heads
might roll if welfare practices
are not frightened up and cheat
ers kicked off the rolls.
He said the budget presents
tools to Welfare officials with
which they can get the job
done.
If, he continued, the welfare
mess is not cleaned up he would
take the Senate floor next year
and demand that officials be
removed from their jobs.
II mean business" he said.
Cheaters Sole Target
He emphasized it was not his
desire to see deserving families
suffer. The objective. he said,
was to prevent cheaters from
getting a free ride on relief
rolls at the expense Of the tax
payer"
Discussing the highway pro-
gram, the Senator said that at
one point the subcommittee
report on the bill did contain
language which could have
prevented construction of the
Three Sisters Bridge over the
Potomac River above Key
Bridge. A veto power would
have been granted to the Ma
tional Capital Transportation
Agency, now engaged in PLAN
ming a rapid transit system for
the Washington area.
The language, he explained
had been modified. The District
Highway Department can gC
ahead with the bridge unles'
either the House or Senate Ap'
preparations Committees take'
some formal action before
March l, 1868, to prevent con-
struction.
From Senator Randolph
Democrat of West Virginia
came the plea that the high
way program not be slowec
down. He said a tragic error
had been made so that today
the program is almost at &
standstill.

gram"
