3 Decatur, Illinois, Wednesday, September 11, 1185 PigeA7 -Nation Obituaries 42 jbillioint farm bill sent to Bloesei 9 commodity prices and to provide farmers with credit, carried a price-tag of $42.8 billion ovef the next three years, according to the Congressional Budget Office. That was after the committee knocked $11.8 billion off the cost of its draft legislation by deferring some farm payments to later years and trimming back several programs. Committee Chairman Kika de la Garza, D-Texas, predicted that the legislation would be passed on the House floor, although he conceded it may be further amended. But with the Senate still unable to complete its version of the bill and the likelihood strong that there will be a bruising conference fight between the two bodies, it appeared unlikely that a final product would be completed before the current four-year bill expires Sept. 30.

The massive legislation includes everything from farm price supports and subsidies to authorization for the food stamp program, foreign food aid and agricultural research. The heart of the House bill, programs to support farm income and "smoke and mirrors" and not real savings. The House bill still contains a dairy section that would pay farmers not to produce milk and tie price support levels to farmers' costs of production. The administration is seeking a simple cut in the current $11.60 per hundred pounds support rate as part of its push for a more "market-oriented" policy that relies less on government purchases to keep prices up. In addition, 'the House version places a virtual four-year freeze on Defense budget fight concludes Oct.

15, the coffers will be empty, he said. The administration request is identical to the amount predicted when Congress passed the fiscal 1986 budget on Aug. 1. But members of the Senate fi nance subcommittee on taxation and debt manage ment Tuesday stilt spoke of shock at a sea of red ink that has doubled since President Reagan took office. "It is astonishing," said Sen.

Daniel P. Movnihan, when Niehenke confirmed that payments on the debt now total more than half the $315 billion a year the government collects in personal income taxes. Niehenke said the debt limit change was "merely a recognition" of obligations already made by the governrent. He asked that the Senate approve, without amendment, the $2,078 trillion debt celling the House adopted when it approved the fiscal 1988 budget. WASHINGTON (AP) The Reagan administration on Tuesday asked Congress to raise the national debt limit above $3 trillion and predicted that without new borrowing authority the Treasury would fun out of cash by Oct is.

John J. Niehenke, acting assistant Treasury secretary tot domestic finance, said the government was spending about $20 billion a month more than it was taking in, and additional borrowing authority was needed quickly. "If the debt limit is not increased, the govern ment will be unable to meet all of its essential obligations when they fall due Social Security checks, payroll checks, unemployment checks, defense con tracts, and principal and interest On its securities." The Treasury will reach the current debt celling of $1,824 trillion on Sept. 30, and its cash reserve of about $20 billion will dwindle quickly after that. By i current levels of "target income protection subsidy paid to farmers to make up for low mar; ket prices.

The administration has hinted it will accept no more than a one-year freeze. But the bill does include some basic changes sought by the administration: a gradual lowering of price-support loan rates for the major subsidized crops wheat, corn, soybeans, cotton and rice to help bring their prices more into line with world prices and thus more competitive in export markets. Charles Schumer, and George Miller, D-Calif At the Pentagon, spokesman Fred S. Hoffman, making it clear that he was speaking for Defense Secretary Caspar W. Weinberger, said any" House change in the compromise $302.5 billion budget for fiscal 1986 would prompt an effort to secure' even higher funding.

Saying his was not "an all-inclu- sive list," Hoffman said the Pentagon would be interested in reversing a $2.9 billion cut in the military retirement account; stripping away a limit of 50 on the deployment of the MX missile, and seeking more money for research projects, particularly the "Star Wars" effort. He refused to put a dollar figure on changes the Pentagon might seek. But he said the Defense Department would also feel free to pursue an end to congressional limits on testing an anti-satellite weapon and to request approval for steps making it easier to close military bases. Memory and The Memorial" Illinois deaths WASHINGTON (AP) House Democratic liberals tentatively decided Tuesday night to accept a proposed compromise in a fight over defense spending even as the Reagan administration warned it would regard House rejection of the Pentagon's budget as an opportunity to seek controversial changes. Under the proposal, the House would approve a bill authorizing the Pentagon to spend $302.5 billion next year, but would actually appropriate $10 billion less, according to sources who spoke only on condition they not be identified.

Congress authorizes and appropriates money in separate bills. The key feature of the compromise calls for the $302.5 billion budget to be passed, but with a provision instructing the House Appropriations Committee to come up with a defense budget of only $292 billion, the sources said. The agreement was reached in a series of closed-door meetings between the House Democratic leadership and a group of Democrats headed by Reps. Barbara Boxer, D- WASHINGTON (AP) The House Agriculture Committee, after months of sparring over new farm legislation, approved Tuesday its version of the 1985 farm bill after tacking on a program letting some farmers vote on what kind of price-support system they want. Despite last-minute moves to pare down its cost, the Reagan administration said the measure was too expensive and risked a presidential veto unless key provisions are rewritten when the measure goes to the full House, possibly as early as next week.

In completing work on the measure, the committee adopted an alternative offered by Rep. Berkley Bedell, D-Iowa, that would give wheat 'and corn farmers the chance to vote on a program offering higher price supports and export subsidies to keep U.S.

grains competitive in world markets. The program would go into effect only if 60 percent of fanners approve it in a referendum.
