CONG. P0A6E REPORTS
Brief Summary Gw$n
Of Session Just Ended
September 8, 1957
last week I promised to attempt
some summary of the Session just
dosed.
First—This session eut appropria-
tions *5,515,773.184 00 below the
President s budget 1 realise that
the President has tried to minimise
the importance ot what was done,
but I believe that anyone who is
really interested will agree that
this is a substantial and important
cut. I voted for practically all the
cuts Incidentally, the present very
severe reduction ir military spend-
ing is not the result of reduced ap-
propriations. but rather, it is the
result of an esecutive order to
hold military expenditures to last
vesr's rate of spending in spile of
the fact that in the case of several
items like our B52’s the rate of
delivery was due to greatly accele-
rate. The Defense Department has
not only the current appropriation
available, but about the same
amount in unused funds which
could support our full schedule of
delivery of weapons. It looks as if
the Administration had planned to
get Congress to appropriate the
full budget request of $36,128,000,-
000 and then come along and say
that Congress was unnecessarily ex-
travagant.
Second—This session repudiated
the President's proposal that the
Federal Government should as-
sume responsibility for (and con-
trol over) our public school system.
1 voted against the Federal Aid Bill.
Third—The Congress approved
the so-called “Eisenhower Doc-
trine" for the Middle East. It is a
vague and halting step, but it is a
step in the right direction. I voted
for it
Fourth—Congress finally passed
a much more moderate Civil Rights
Bill than anyone had supposed
would be possible. Hie House ac-
tually passed a very radical bill
along the lines asked by the Presi-
dent. I voted against this bill. The
Senate drastically changed the bill
(for the better). I voted for the
amendments. The bill was not need-
l'd. but as passed, it was far more
reasonable than we could have
hoped had it been allowed to go
over till next year.
Fifth—Both Houses passed legis-
lation to offset as far as possible
the crippling effects on the Su-
preme Court decisions opening F.
B L files to Communists and others
i accused of crime. This passed the
House by a unanimous vote. I was
present and voted for the bill. Un-
, fortunately, most decisions of the
i Supreme Court are of such a na-
ture (relating to Constitutional in-
terpretation) that Congress cannot
rectify even obvious errors
Sixth—We did not stop all fore-
lgp aid. but we did call a slowdown.
1 voted for a complete stop of new
appropriations at this time. I hope
that we have made it plain that
Congress is unwilling to accept
Foreign Aid as a permanent part
of our governmental responsibility.

Congressman, 11th District
