WASHINGTON — President
Reagan’s plan for new budget cuts
is expected to be formally un
veiled this week, but the early
draft — with plans to delay Social
Security increases — already has
met a cold reception in Congress.
Reagan’s proposals are ex
pected in a speech this week and
in scheduled appearances before
House and Senate panels.
The new budget cuts, which
are designed to keep the federal
deficit from rising above $42.5 bil
lion in the fiscal year beginning
Oct. 1., are likely to meet as much
resistance from Republicans as
from Democrats.
Moderate House Republicans
oppose a proposed delay in cost-
of-living benefits to Social Secur
ity recipients. They also think
Reagan should cut the increase in
defense spending by more than
the $2 billion proposed by the
administration.
A group of about 30 Northeast
and Midwest Republicans want a
$9 billion defense reduction, and
some more conservative Republi
cans are saying the Pentagon must
take a bigger cut if Reagan is to
hold down the deficit and balance
the budget in 1984.
Rep. Bill Frenzel, R-Minn., a
conservative on the House Budget
Committee, told constituents in a
newsletter this weekend, “I be
lieve we will have to lower our
sights a little and reduce the speed
of our military buildup. ”
House Republican leader
Robert Michel of Illinois re
portedly is not pleased with the
defense plan or the Social Security
cut, which met predictably harsh
criticism from Democratic
leaders.
Michel and Senate Republican
leader Howard Baker of Tennes
see asked Reagan last week for
more time to work on the propos
als, according to Senate assistant
GOP leader Ted Stevens of
Alaska.
Reagan outlined his new plan to
Cabinet officials last week, includ
ing delays in cost-of-living in
creases to recipients of such be
nefits as Supplemental Security
Income; black lung; railroad re
tirement; veterans, military and
federal worker pensions; food
stamps and nutrition allowances;
as well as the old-age pensions of
Social Security.
These delays would result in
savings o£$5 billion, White House
officials Bid.
idget proposals, which
been officially submit-
>uld include closing the
and Education depart
ments and trimming the federal
payroll by 75,000 jobs through
attrition and reduction-in-force
firings.
Officials said Reagan also is ac
tively considering phasing out
general revenue sharing by 1984
and the popular Comprehensive
Employment and Training Act
job-training program by Sept. 30,
1982.

WASHINGTON — Masses of
shouting protesters marched to
the Capitol Saturday for a union-
sponsored rally against Reagan
administration social and econo
mic policies.
AFL-CIO officials anticipated
nearly a quarter million workers
and others for “Solidarity Day,’’ a
12-block march from the
Washington Monument to the
foot of the Capitol and a 90-minute
rally led by federation President
Lane Kirkland.
When the march began shortly
after noon, U.S. Park Police esti
mated crowd size at 130,000 and
growing.
“Reagan says cut back—we say
fight back, ” the marchers yelled as
they moved down Constitution
Avenue toward the Capitol.
Kirkland was among those lead
ing the march, accompanied by
Coretta Scott King; NAACP Presi
dent Benjamin Hooks; Eleanor
Smeal, head of the National Orga
nization for Women; and Vernon
Jordan of the National Urban
League.
President Reagan ignored the
event and, like Richard Nixon
during a huge 1971 antiwar pro
test, spent the day at Camp
David.
Vendors along the streets near
the Washington Monument did a
booming business in buttons and
T-shirts.
“Send Ronald Reagan a mes
sage for one dollar,” one vendor
yelled as he sold “Ted Kennedy
for President” buttons.
Doug Holbrook, secretary-
treasurer of the American Postal
Workers Union, said he hoped the
demonstration will be the begin
ning of grass-roots opposition to
Reagan’s programs.
“The Congress and the adminis
tration have just got to listen to
labor in this country,” he said.
Most of those at the rally came
by bus or train, avoiding air travel
in sympathy with striking air con
trollers, and clogging highways
serving the nation’s capital. The
AFL-CIO rented the city’s entire
subway system for $65,000 to
allow everyone to ride free for the
day.
The rally had almost a picnic
atmosphere. Police were relaxed
and friendly and chatted with de
monstrators.
At a San Francisco rally, former
Vice President Walter Mondale
noted the deteriorated relations
between the White House and the
union movement.
“Eisenhower, Nixon, Ford all
had their problems with unions.
but this administration isn’t even
talking with unions,” Mondale
said in a prepared statement.
“They don’t understand that just
as you need the trust of business
for government to be effective,
you need the trust of labor.
Actor Ossie Davis introduced
himself at a mini-rally at the
Washington Monument with an
indirect reference to Reagan. “I
said that because I don’t want you
to mistake me for that other actor
who lives around the corner,”
Davis said to laughter.
Many demonstrators wore T-
shirts and carried placards assail
ing Reagan’s firing of more than
11,000 air traffic controllers.
although the rally was planned
long before that dispute.
Several balloon blimps hovered
over the monument grounds.
Federal Aviation Administration
officials reversed an earlier deci
sion and permitted the balloons to
fly in normally prohibited air
space near the White House.
The NAACP and ERA suppor
ters joined in the rally.
About 200 non-union organiza
tions joined the AFL-CIO in spon
soring the rally.
Although the national leader
ship of the 1.8 million-member
Teamsters union refused to en
dorse the event, some Teamsters
locals were at the rally.
