...that amount even close to adequate. "The picture is bleak," says Maryland Senator Charles Mathias Jr., who has co-authored a bill that would raise the allowance to $250 and cover up to $600 in annual costs for tuition after the first $400. But even that increase is uncertain of Senate passage. Despite President Nixon's statement last March that "words of thanks are not enough," the Administration is unlikely to support that bill because it will add as much as $750 million to an inflated budget.
