This Congress was also econo
my-minded. It should be credited
with saving between two and three
billion dollars for taxpayers. This
Congress actually did more to
L economize by cutting down feder

Thomas Johnston, chairman o'

the resistance to reductions of ex

that we have a Congress that

Fateful problems will face this

for their efforts, and for their sin

less but necessary persistance will
remain necessary as long as we
