EducationandNational Affairs  \nHouse Passes $2.9 BillionCollege Construction Bill*    *    *  \nHouse Votes $190 MillionFor NDEA Student Loans  \nAmerican Council on Education·1785 Massachusetts Avenue,N.W.,Washington 36,D.C.  \nMay 5,1966  \nVolume XV,Number 15  \n# Committee Approves$479 Million for NSF\n\nThe House Appropriations Committee on May 5 approved a $479.9 mil-lion budget for activities of the National Science Foundation in the fiscalyear starting July 1.The amount is exactly the same as NSF's appro-  \npriation for the present fiscal year,but $45 million less than the Administration requested.  \nMuch of the cut was due to elimination of NSF's Project Mohole,to drill the earth's core.The committee said the project was proceeding slowly and costing much more than originallyestimated.  \nThe NSF funds were contained in a $14 billion bill to finance 23 independent executiveagencies and the Department of Housing and Urban Development in fiscal 1967.In its reporton the bill,the committee said:  \nThe committee notes with approval the expansion of developmentgrants for colleges and universities to include smaller institutions andthe extension of the science improvement program to meet some of theneeds of colleges primarily concerned with undergraduate training.The full requests are recommended in these programs.  \nThe bill contains $45 million for the science development program—an increase of $5 mil-lion over this year—and $10 million for a new program to strengthen science education incolleges primarily devoted to undergraduate education.In testimony presented earlier thisyear,NSF estimated that about half of the bachelor of science degree-granting institutions inthe country would be eligible for grants.It estimated that the grants would range from$125,000 to $225,000 each.  \nThe bill also contains $4.9 billion for the National Aeronautics and Space Administration.While the appropriations bill did not specify how much of this amount should be devoted toNASA's Sustaining University Program,the House on May 3 passed a separate bill authoriz-ing $41 million for it.The amount is $5 million less than was provided in the current fiscalyear.  \nAlthough the appropriations bill carries funds for the Veterans Administration,it didnot include money to implement the new GI bill,providing educational and other benefits for\"cold warl veterans.The committee said it anticipates that $250 million for the GI bill willbe requested later.  \nThe House of Representatives on May 2 passed the higher educa-tion bill authorizing $2.9 billion in new funds for the constructionof college classrooms,laboratories,and libraries.The bill,  \nHR 14644,extends the Higher Education Facilities Act of 1963 for three more years andgreatly increases the authorized funds in fiscal years 1968 and 1969.  \nThe bill was passed by voice vote under suspension of the rules.This is a procedurewhich limits debate,bars amendments,and requires a two-thirds vote for passage.No onespoke against the bill during the half-hour debate.  \nThe bill omits an Administration proposal to phase out the National Defense StudentLoan Program and substitute guaranteed private loans.This feature of the Administration'soriginal 1966 higher education bill was deleted by the Education and Labor Committee (seeBulletin,Vol.XV,No.14).The effect of this action was to leave the NDEA loan programin its present form.  \nAfter House passage,the bill was sent to the Senate,where no hearings on it have beenscheduled as yet.  \nIn its report on the bill,the Education and Labor Committee said:'The evidence pre-sented to the committee indicates that the proposed authorizations for 1968 and 1969 areless than what will be required to meet the anticipated needs.The proposed authorizationsare,however,within the program plans projected by the Department of Health,Education,and Welfare.I  \nAlso contained in the bill is a one-year extension of Federal assistance to the so-called\"developing institutions\"under Title ","cbCaijILIO0kzAYg","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCaijILIO0kzAYg","pdf",586838,"English","#
