WASHINGTON, May 6, — <#> —

It is $30,000 less than last year
i and $30,000 below the Agriculture
! Department's request for the 12
months beginning July 1.
"Since approximately $50,000 is
available to Alaska under the ap
propriation for the office of ex

said, “this reduction appears advis
able in the interest of economy.”

WASHINGTON. May 5, — —
The Senate has passed and sent to
the House a bill to permit the
Secretary of Commerce to lease
space on Alaska airports for 20
years.
The present limit of 10 years
upon such leases, the Senate Com

CUT NOW IS
1 _
| WASHINGTON, May 5 — (/P) —
A 12 per cent cut in the agricul
ture department's budget tor the
fiscal year starting July 1 was
recommended today by the House
Appropriations Committee.
'f ile committee approved a $720,
157,433 budget, $99,848,113 less than
President Truman asked and $52,
742,207 less than the department
received this year. The House may
revise the figures further when it
votes on the bill next week.
Almost one third of the cut was
in effect a bookkeeping transaction
which reflects no actual saving of
public funds. For one thing, the
President had asked for $32,700,000
to permit the department to re
imburse the Commodity Credit
Corporation for expenses in erad
icating foot and mouth and other
animal diseases. Instead of pro
viding the money, the committee
told the department to cancel the
debt.
