Continued from p. 1
On domestic spending, Reagan's proposal would increase spending for Medicare, the federal health insurance program for the elderly and disabled, and for Medicaid, the state-federal program for the poor. The budget also would allow for a 3.7 percent cost-of-living increase for Social Security beneficiaries next January.
But it includes a $2.6-billion cap on Medicaid spending, an estimated $1.3 billion less than what is projected for 1987 spending under current law.
It would increase premiums and deductible payments by elderly individuals for Medicare Part B coverage, which covers physician bills.

But giving drugs to a minor at a party or concert may lead to the prosecution of someone who doesn't belong in the penitentiary, Solbach said.
Sobbach said that although college students may be prosecuted on offenses meant to nab drug pushers, the legislation would give
The present law says that the exchange of money must be proven before the charge is a felony on the first offense. The proposed law says sale does not have to be proven when the exchange involves a minor, he said.
"In instances when its hard to prove the exchange of money, you only have a misdemeanor," Solbach said. "On a misdemeanor you just don't have that heavy of a hammer.
