Under the present setup, outlays under the federal state highway program will begin in 1960 to fall about 600 million dollars a year un der the level envisioned in the 1956 federal highway act. "Senate Democrats have been demanding action to keep this from happening. They have accused the admin istration of planning to, per mit the 13-year inter-state program to stretch out into 20 yearsvor more. Case said he thought that Commerce Secretary Sinclair Weeks might recommend some way of "replenishing" the highway trust fund to bring it up to scheduled lev els.
