But the President vetoed that billeven though its impact on jobs would have been much greater than that of keeping Lockheedor other failing businessesafloat. And I think it is fair to ask whether our Nation has a relatively greater need for more Lockheeds or more nursing homes. In the last analysis. it is really a matter of priorities. The $250 million we could lose in bailing out Lockheed is: Thirteen times what the Federal Government plans to spend in 1972 for health care for migrant children. Two and a half times what we are re quested to budget for Federal air pollu tion programs. Two and a half times what the Presi dent requested for cancer research.
