The Bill approved by voice vote Autho Rizes defense department spending of $302.5 billion in the fiscal year thai started oct. I. That will buy thousands of planes ships tanks and other weapons but it also halves president Reagan s my nuclear missile program from 100 to 50 of the 10-warhead weapons. The 469-Page Bill also permits the Pentagon to build new chemical weapons for the first time since 196j, although Money to actually pay for the project was stripped last week from a companion spending Bill. Those funds will have to be restored on the floor or else the army could not build the nerve Gas bombs and artillery shells. The Senate approved the authorization measure 94-5 three months ago shortly after it emerged from a House Senate conference committee called to resolve 1,200 differences Between the versions passed by the democratic controlled House and Republican run Senate. But some House liberals were unhappy with the Bill arguing that House Mem Bers of the conference committee led by armed services committee chairman Les Aspin d-wis., made Loo Many con Cessions to their Senate counterparts.

Last year s authorized Pentagon budget was $292 billion and Reagan Hud originally sought a 5.9 percent hike beyond inflation to about $320 billion. Frank said procurement reforms approved by the House were unrecognizable when the conference committee changed them and noted that while the Senate voted for 50 my weapons the House approved 40 and the conferees accepted 50. There is As wide a disparity Between reality in this Bill and what we originally passed As i can imagine Frank said. Rep. Mel Levine a Calif. Said. Our de sense Bill was a very Good Bill As it left the i Louse. Now it   rep. Ron Dellums d-Calif., criticized the Bill because he said it includes Money for new nuclear weapons and War is not an option in a nuclear  still to come is a major fight Over Sepa rate legislation which actually appropriates the Money to pay for the authorized spending. The House is scheduled to begin floor consideration wednesday of a Bill appropriating $292 billion for the Penta gon this year. The authorization Bill had been scheduled for a floor Vole in Early August shortly before a month Long recess but was delayed because of the complaints from some House liberals. After the recess Aspin and other democratic leaders worked behind the scenes to Deal with the complaints
