Pacific Stars and Stripes (Newspaper) - February 19, 1959, Tokyo, Japan Thursday february 19, 1959 the stars and stripes Page 7 Rayburn dims bid to set up Money reins Washington a a Resolution with the announced aim of protecting Tho . Treasury from backdoor Money raids ran into opposition from speaker of the House Sam Rayburn a Tex. Rayburn s opposition while hot definitely spiking the Resolution dimmed its prospects. Drafted by chairman Howard w. Smith a a of the House rules committee the Resolution is before the committee for study. It would Reserve to the House and to its appropriations commit tee jurisdiction Over All Bills involving spending of Federal funds. It would Amend the House rules to r prevent consideration of any Money Bills that have not cleared the appropriations group. The principal effect of the proposal would be to Hall the practice of giving government agencies authority to borrow Money directly from the Treasury sometimes Over Long periods without an annual review of their needs by the appropriations committee. The direct borrowing practice started in 1932 and has been used widely to finance housing Highway and other programs. Smith and others backing his Resolution say the Senate has been bypassing the House by repeated resort to borrowing up with Smith Are chair Man Clarence e. Cannon do of the appropriations committee and Many of the top members of that committee. Stranglehold feared against them Are chairmen of several other committees including banking and currency a pm Edse vices Interior and roads. They construe the Smith proposal As a move to give the appropriation committee a financial strangle hold on programs which originate in other committees and involve Large spending authorizations. If the Resolution emerges from the rules committee the show Down will come on the House floor where the rules and appropriations committees member ship is heavily outnumbered bythe combined membership of the non appropriating committees. Smith contends has proposal merely would write into the House rules a constitutional provision that Bills appropriating Money out of the Treasury must originate inthe House. In the last session of Congress alone he said 12 Bills providing Back door approaches to the Treasury originated in the Senate and about half of them became Law. The 12 Bills would have involved More than $9 billion of spending he said. She likes Strong silent Type there s a limit to patience Edgewood Mel.
