A surprise decision lat yesterday by Houao Democrat to slash 871 miHion dollars off their catch-aH housing bill was interpreted as a "good sign" by GOP economy advocates. But the Republicans added that the pared-down housing bill approved by a House banking subcommittee still was 440 million dollars bigger than the President's program. They said they would try to cut it further on the House floor.

Republicans said Hine Democrat obvioufly are beginning to smart nnder the epithet of "spender" which the President has hurled at them and now are getting "more conscious of economy." For example, the housing bill aoDroved by the House sub committee was 565 million dollars smaller than the companion measure which passed the Senate Thursday. The Senate housing bill would authorize outlays totaling $2,675,000,000. about $1,000,000,000 more than the administration recommends. Chairman Albert Rains of the House subcommittee told newsmen the housing bill had a good chance of passing the house without significant change. He defended it as a "broad and forward-looking bill.

Rains emphasized that federal grants and loans called for in the measure would be spread out over a number of years. According to the administration's own estimates, he said, the bill would increase treasury outlays in the next fiscal year by less than 100 million dollars. The bill approved by the subcommittee would permit some reduction in the minimum down required of buyen of middle-priced and higher priced housing under the FHA program.
