SACRAMENTO, Calf, June
25.--An MISUNDERSTANDING bill
sits on the desk Of Gov. Ed
mund O. (Pat) Brown today,
awaiting his decision whether
to sign or veto.
The result Of the Governors
deliberations could have an Inn

The bill would require

A $l.9 billion cut in the S4s
billion budget requested by the
Defense Department was de-
Tended in the House today as
leaving ample funds TO main.
tain and expand a policy
of strength and firmness'
throughout the world.
Opening two days Of House
debate on a $47,092, 100000 bill
recommended by the House APP
preparations Committee. Rep
resentative Mahon. Democrat
Of Texas. highly praised De-
Tense Secretary Mcnamara.
He nevertheless disputed Mr.
McNamara's recent protest
against committee cuts, par
ticularly for airplane procure
ment money.
THE reductions should not
be interpreted TO mean that
defense programs have been
slashed," Mr., Mahon told the
House. Far from 1t. this Ia
the second highest peacetime
defense bill in the history Of
the Nation.
The bill Is 81 billion higher
than the defense appropriation
bill Of three years ago. During
the past two years we have
appropriated sl5.5 billion more
for defense than during the
prior two years.
This bill represents the con-
tinuing determination Of the
House that we shall maintain
our military superiority and ex-
pand our military capabili-
ties and support q policy OF
strength and firmness."
Vote Expected Tomorrow
House leaders said they did
not expect q final vote on the
bill until tomorrow. Mr.. Mahon
and other members of the APP
propriations Committee showed
confidence that the bill would
go through the House without
substantial change, although
some efforts might be made 70
reverse O few Of the commit
tees reductions.
Before taking UP the SAT bill
lion measure this afternoon,
the House passed q special re-
solution made necessary BY
failure Of Congress to dispose
Of many 1884 fiscal year appro-
priation bills before July /.
The resolution presented by
Appropriations Com mittee
Chairman Cannon, Democrat
Of Missouri, would enable de-
partments and agencies TO con-
tinue operating on the same
monthly financial basis after
the start Of the new fisral year,
July /, as they have done DUR
ing the current fiscal period.
Mr.. Mahon did not mention
Secretary McNamara's specific
criticisms of committee cuts in
the bill. He indirectly replied
to that criticism, however. by
defending each individual re-
duction and noting that more
than $500 million Of the SIS
billion cut represented book
keeping changes.
