TODAY IN CONGRESS: Body Wrestles With Atomic Energy, Freedom Of Press By The Associated Press WASHINGTON, Oct. 8 —UP)— Congressmen groped today for answers to such problems as ato mic energy . . . Access to world news ... Aid to the jobless. Neither senate nor house sched uled a session today, but the law makers busied themselves never theless. Some thought they had the an swers Congress is seeking. For instance: Atomic Energy — Senator Lu cas (D-Ill) came up with a sug gestion designed to unravel the snarl in the senate that has, tied up President Truman’s recommen dations on unclear power. Lucas would set up a joint com mittee of senators and house mem bers—to be advised by top-rank ing scientists—with power to pass on proposed laws and send them to the full chambers for final ac tion. UNDECIDED The senate recessed last week without being able to decide which committee should consider a bill to set up an atomic energy con trol commission. Senator Vandenberg (R-Mich) already has got the senate’s okay for a committee somewhat similar to the one Lucas proposed. It wouldn’t, however, be able to pass along bills to the floor. That’s one reason senators are balking at giving that committee the bill to study. For another the house has shown no sign of acting on the Vandenberg plan. Luca’s idea is that the special committee he has in mind can keep Congress up to the minute on the subject of atom splitting. Access to news—Rep. Clarence Brown (R-Ohio) wants American newsmen abroad to be able to re port fully on what they see and hear. PRESS FREEDOM To make sure they can do this in countries that are getting help from the United States, Brown proposes to make it a condition of such aid. Specifically, he would forbid the United Nations relief and rehabilitation administration to spend money in any country that does not permit freedom of the press as it is understood in this country. Brown, a newspaper publisher, plans to offer an amendment to that effect to a bil lthat would give UNRRA another $550,000,000. Mr. Truman asked for the addi tional appropriation to round out the United States’ original pledge of $1,350,000,000. The bill will come up shortly before the house appropriations committee. “MUST” ITEM Jobless aid—This administration “must” item is tucked away in a house committee pigeon hole, but backers say one of two things may bring it out. First they’re going to see if Mr Truman’s personal appeal will lead th* ways and means committee to reconsider the bill, now that its tax-cutting chore is finished. It that lails—and Rep. Gearhart (R-Calif) told a reporter he hasn’t seen any change in sentiment — administration forces plan to draw up a petition to send the bill di WEBB TODAY - TUESDAY "RHYTHM ROUND UP" KEN CURTIS HOOSIER HOTSHOTS BOB WELLS AND HIS TEXAS COWBOYS — And — "DILUNGER" ELISHA COOK, JR. LAWRENCE TIERNEY Also NEWS — CARTOON SHORT i rectly to the house floor for a fight there. To do that, however, 218 house members must sign the pe tition. What Mr. Truman wants is a national standard of unemploy ment compensation up to $25 for 26 weeks. Most states pay less for a shorter period of time. The senate passed a bill carrying the 26 weeks provision but not the $25. LET HIM DOWN Mr. Truman thought his former colleagues there let him down. He said so when he called Democratic ways and means members to the White House for a personal talk j The committee may wait until I later in the week for a vote. I Otherwise on Capitol Hill: i The senate foreign relations committee invited Secretary oi State Byrnes to appear this after noon to discuss United Nations foreign policy. ....... i And senate subcommittees wenl | to work on such things as amend ments to the G. I. BUI of Rights proposals for national science pro gram and whether new homes should have OPA price ceilings.
