Vol. 70. 1'\0. 130 Farm aid pact close to finish WASHINGTON CUPI) The White House and Senate budgrt negotiator.;. with a tentative farm aid pact in hand. appeared close to an agreement on an o"eraJI budge! proposal. GOP leader Roberl Dole said Wednesday. BUI Dole cautioned thaI the budge! paCKage; which he hopes to complete by Thurs· day. will not have the backing of the entire Republican majority in the Sena te and undoubtedly will face many amendments from both par· ties. He stressed that President Reagan will have to vigorously sell the budget, both to the public and Congress, for it to have a chance of passing. As an example of the dif­ ficulties, a snag developed over student aid funding Wednesday. Reagan proposed culling $500 million from student loan programs in fiscal 1986. including limiting each student to $4,000 per year and eliminating families with incomes of more than $32,500 from eligibility. slatr Photo by Scott Shaw Sens.
