There
are four categories of voting on the floor of the Senate. The first are
those who have been described as ones who can hear the farthest drum
before the cry of a single hungry child. Then there is the group who can
hear every child, whether he is hungry or not, before they can hear a
single drum. Then you have a third group, who say, “Nothing can happen
to the almighty dollar, so we will vote
for all the children and all the drums.” The time has come when we must
have some priorities with respect to the way we are allocating our
steadily decreasing resources, else it should be clear to everybody—that
the economy of the United States could well be destroyed.

Congress.
