Congress Faces Tough Year
By GLENN DROMGOOLE
Congressmen who went all the
way with LBJ during the 1965
session of the 89th Congress
were asked by the President last
week to give even more than the
year before.
Mr. Johnson outlined seem
ingly impossible demands during
his State of the Union message,
calling on Congress to increase
“Great Society” legislation, con
tinue the war in Viet Nam and
reduce government deficits—all
in one year.
Whether the solons — expect
ing and practically promised an
easy session during this cam
paign year — will meet the Pres
ident’s requests is the big ques
tion that faces an almost un
equalled pro-administrative Con
gress.
Johnson revealed his plans to
step up domestic programs, in
cluding several highly contro
versial issues, and at the same
time keep pouring money into the
Viet Nam war. And Congress
will be asked to do all this on a
half-billion dollar short - term
profit that will eventually cost
the government only $1.8 billion
— the lowest deficit in seven
years.
Congressional controversy cou
pled with a desire to return home
for campaigning, may adversely
affect the LBJ program, but it
is really too early to tell.
The President might have his
hands full, however, trying to
convince Congress to restore the
excise tax on automobiles and
telephone calls which was dras
tically reduced only Jan. 1 and
which Johnson estimates would
bring $1 billion into Federal
coffers.
Few Congressmen are anxious
for a tax hike during an election
year, especially at the same time
Social Security withholding pay
ments are increasing.
House Minority Leader Gerald
Ford said this week that no tax
increases will be necessary if do
mestic spending is carefully re
strained. Ford urged the Pres
ident to prepare a priority-rated
budget message so Congress
could refrain from sacrificing
urgent domestic programs.
He also criticized the war on
poverty, a battle which Johnson
called on Congress to continue.
The President will likely run
into trouble with his renewed de
mand for repeal of Section 14-B
of the Taft-Hartley Act — con
cerning state right-to-work laws.
Johnson’s bid for repeal was nix
ed last year, and the outlook is
little brighter in 1966.
Another Johnson labor propos
al — the one dealing with con
trol of strikes deemed detri
mental to the national interest—
could also be in for a rough time
from the strong labor lobby.
Four-year terms for Repre
sentatives will likely be met with
gleeful approval in the House,
but it is unlikely the Senate
would nod yes.
Civil rights legislation that
would prohibit discrimination in
sale or rent of houses and selec
tion of juries and would provide
strong penalties for crimes
against civil rights workers is
due for its normal share of
debate. A strong real estate
lobby could further strengthen
thev opposition forces.
Foreign aid, including an In
ternational Health Act and an
International Education Act, may
also have trouble with the thrifty
Congressmen who will want to
curtail, as much non-Viet Nam
foreign spending as possible to
prevent more taxes.
Viet Nam war policies will cer
tainly be a major discussion topic
with emphasis on either stepping
up the war effort or getting out.
While the President has strong
Congressional support for his
Viet Nam action, he will prob
ably be pressured to make either
an all-out effort for peace or
take more dastic measures with
the Viet Cong.
Despite the possible contro
versies, the election year scurry
and the seemingly impossible de
mands, Congress will likely en
act a large chunk of the Presi
dent’s program.
But don’t count on them giving
him more than he requested this
year.
