The action was a victory for the Senate leadership and reformers who favor a compromise change in the Senate's rules to reduce the number of senators required to cut off floor debate on legislation.

Under the proposed change, the votes of three-fifths of the total membership of the Senate 60 senators when there are no vacancies would be sufficient to end filibusters. The present rule requires the votes of two-thirds of all sen ators present and voting to cut off debate and bring a matter to a vote. Backers of the rules change to lower the number of votes required to cut off a filibuster argued that It would prevent a small minority of members from paralyzing the Senate on the critical issues that will face the 94th Congress. Opponents said that the weakening of the filibuster cut-off rule would be the first step toward allowing a majority of senators to cut off debate and would prevent a minority from protecting its interests. Voting in favor of easing filibuster cut-off rule: Abourezk (D), McGovern (D).

Pressler votes against aid bill WASHINGTON (AP) Rep. Larry Pressler. says he voted against a $3.5 billion foreign aid program for fiscal 1975 because the United States cannot afford to continue pouring money into foreign countries, especially for war purposes. Pressler noted that more than $1 billion was earmarked for the Middle East. "American taxpayers cannot afford to put more money into arms for both sides of the Middle East when they must also pay higher gas taxes," he said Thursday in a prepared statement.

The South Dakota Republican added that the bill, which passed the House on a 212-202 vote, would provide for $6 billion In foreign loans at 6 per cent in-terest through the Export-Import Bank. "The time has come for our country to begin loaning money to Its own citizens at the same rate it Is loan ing money overseas," he said. itcoxrColorJortiait, Congress votes I I pun Photographer on duty MAR. 12 13 14 15 Daily 9-8 Sun.

By a 367-55 Vote the House went on record as urging the Federal Reserve Board to conduct monetary policy during the first half of 1975 in a way as to encourage lower long-term interest rates, such as for home mortgages, durable consumer goods and capital Improvements by business.

The vote was on a concurrent resolution. Such resolutions require action by both houses, but do not require the President's signature and lack the force of law. Supporters of the resolution said that it was a clear directive to the Federal Reserve Board and thus would have an jmpact on its policies. They also argued lower interest rates would stimulate the economy and contribute to low-er unemployment. Opponents contended that the resolution was meaningless since it lacked the force of law and that Congress could directly help improve the nation's economic situation by cutting federal spending.
