There simply isn’t enough space and time
to go around adequately.
To take one example, it’s probable that
relatively few people know how well, or
how badly, the President’s "Umbrella” leg-

been overshadowed to the point of disap-

stir up strong opposition. Two prijne

the plan for having the rank and file of
Union membership vote on proposed strikes.
This has been buried in the Congressional

about farm policy and surpluses, of which
the key reform would be to replace the

INSIDE WASHINGTON By Central Press

Specie! to The Baytown Sun
WASHINGTON - The housing industry is seriously
concerned over the prospect that Congress wlU kill
the federal housing administration aS a result of
the WOO million FHA scandals which have rocked
the country.
There are increasing signs, that a number of sen-
ators are going to have to be convinced that the
FHA basically is a good thing for the country be-
fore they vote to continue the agency.
The industry leaders say they fear that Senator
Referring to this, Douglas said, "My mind goes
hack to when I was trying to get reduction In ap-
propriations when the Democrats were in power
and the senator from Tennessee, former Senator

“There Is a French phraae, I believe, which ap-
pUes to the situation: ‘plus ca change, plus e’est la

mains the same. Bureaucrats and chairmen of ap-
propriations committee seem to be the same In 1964
as they were In 1949. The words may change but
the melody remains the same.”

Thye maintained ttyit If Douglas knew how much
effort goes into an appropriations measure he would
not be so prone to try to cut the funds when the
legislation reaches the Senate floor. ,
SAME TUNE — To Senator Paul H. Douglas, of Il-
linois, Republicans and Democrats act exactly alike
when they become chairman of the Senate appro-
priations committee.
The scholarly Democrat explained the similarity

tions committee chairman Styles Bridges opposed
the cut. The New Hampshire Republican for many
years has been a leading member of the Senate's
economy bloc.
LATE SESSION — Republican leaders are shooting
for a July 81 adjournment of Congress, but there is
talk of the session possibly going through August.
With the autumn election! looming, the Republi-
cans want to get out aa quickly as possible and go
home to campaign. However, some GOP chiefs are
saying privately that adjournment Auf. 1® 1* more
likely than July 81. Development of this possibility
is bringing talk of night sessions and ppssjble Sat-
urday meetings. •
Many major items on President Elsenhower’a pro-
gram still face the legislators. These Include farm,
tag**, Social Security, Hawaiian statehood, recipro-
cal trade and foreign aid proposals. Another “must"
item that always provides last-minute business in
the rush to get home is the always-vltai matter of
appropriation bills.
