Johnson said there is under way a "general partisan po litical campaign to smear the Congress." He gave his views in a radio-television interview with Sen. George Smathers (D-Fla.). The Texas Democrat added that since Eisenhower took office Congress has cut his appropriations requests by "more than $10 billion." So far, he said, $222 mil lion has been cut from the six appropriations that have gone to the White House this sum mer. "We will, increase the de fense bill by a little over $300 million," he said. "We will increase the health bill by some $200 million to $300 million when it leaves Con gress. We will increase the civil functions bill, the publicJ works bill, by some $70 mil lion. But we will decrease all the other 13 bills. "And when the net result is in we will appropriate, in my opinion, about half a bil lion dollars less than the President asked us to ap propriate." The Senate takes up the $39,594,339,000 defense mon ey bill Monday. Johnson branded the GOP spending charge as "phony" and "propaganda." The latter, he said, is the product of ex ecutive branch influence over press, radio and television. "The only reason we have a $13 billion deficit this year is because the President asked us (Congress) to spend more than the revenue would pro vide," he said.
