"We're not trying to meddle." -Ask the City Dept. of Finance and Management The City Council's new Legislative Relations Committee has held its first meeting to plan strategy for the 1976 session of the State Legislature.

The pattern of victories won by Muskie in recent weeks gives promise of holding the line. 60 Florida Families Homeless in Flood MILTON, Fla. (UPI) -More than 60 families were homeless in the Florida panhandle Saturday, driven out by two rivers swollen with up to IS inches of rain. At least three state highways were blocked by bridge destruction in the flooding, which occurred 20 to 40 miles northeast of Pen-sacola.

Much of the area also was hit by record flooding last April. Civil Defense Director Glenn Marble said he would ask that Santa Rosa County be declared a federal disaster area because of damage from the rampaging Black-water River. Senators John Tower, Paul Fannin, John Mc Clellan, and John Stennis, chairman of the Armed Services Committee and the man whopleaded unsuccessfully for support on the Senate floor for hours before losing. BUT THE PATTERN was uneven. Example: On the vote to deny extra school lunch money some weeks ago, and the military vote Sen.

Joseph M. Montoy-a, usually classified as "liberal," joined Muskie's cadre. Earlier, he sided with Stennis. Sen. Pete Domenici, R-' N.M., a member of the budget panel and a strong supporter of the effort to keep spending within the $367 billion figure agreed to May IS, praised Friday's action.

WIECK Of the Journal's Washington Bureau WASHINGTON The Senate gave its new budget panel some real muscle last week when it sent a $25.8 billion Military Procurement Authorization Conference Report back for some more trimming. In so doing, it heeded the warnings of Chairman Edmund S.

Muskie, D-Maine, and other members of the Budget Committee that the figure was in excess of its share of the projected $367 billion budget figure okayed by Congress May IS. TO MOST observers, this means at least one body of Congress is determined to discipline its spending a bit. IT WASN'T THE first time this happened. Some weeks ago, Muskie rose on the Senate floor to warn that an amendment by Sen. George McGovern, adding some $200 million to a school lunch program threw the budget figures out of kiher.

Muskie had no idea how much support he would have that day; however, it was overwhelming. IT WAS CLOSER Friday. The military lobby has been many friends in Congress, including some of the loudest penny-pinchers on both sides of the aisle. But, by a 48-42 vote, the Senate sent the bill back to conferences with an admonition that hundreds of millions needed to be chopped off, whether the House conferees liked it or not. The two victories were won by shifting coalitions.

ON FRIDAY, Muskie's budget panel members had the support of the overwhelming number of senators who would be classified as "liberal." But it lost a lot of diehard conservatives with close ties to the military, including 4 FREEMAN BOSTONIAN WM. JOYCE WINTHROP H.I.S. MORGAN QUINN form but we didn't. If there is one thing the people of the United States are asking for it is that we put the budget in order and establish a system calculated to curtail deficit spending in good times and to set priorities," he added. This year's work of the budget panel is regarded as a "trial run" but a very important one.
