What made the Secret Service mad was that anyone should have to pay to see the White House.

Issue to finance the new lending program. But a consistent opponent of almost all his fiscal policies, supported him. Majority Leader Alben W. Barkley, D., Ky„ sponsoring the lending bill and trying to pilot it through the Senate, opposed the taxation proposal on the grounds that any effort to remove tax exemption from federal securities should be directed at all of them, not at just one issue. Sen. Harry F. Byrd. D.. Va., who opposes the program as a whole, offered an amendment to the lending bill that would make the securities taxable. Byrd has consistently criticized the administration’s method of financ- : ng spending and lending programs. Jnly last week-end he attacked the aew program as a “scheme devised o evade the present statutory debt imit” of $45,000,000,000 which will ic approached next year. Byrd said he offered his amendicnt because he believed the funds mde available for loans would be ised to some extent in competition ■ith private business. Because of hat. he said, the securities should be ixeii, as are those of private business.
