SPLIT ON $3.50 PLAN

Deadlocked on differences over the
half-and-half and taxation features
OF the District appropriation bill
the Senate and House conferees
adjourned after a short meeting
yesterday. each contending that the
next request for q meeting must
come from the other side.
In discussing the disagreement.
Senator Curtis. of Kansas, chair
man of the Senate conferees. de-
cIared the next move must come
from the House. The House con-
ferees declared the first request for
a meeting having come from their
side, It Is now UP to the Senate 70
make a request for further meet
ings.
Each BIames other.
The House conferees," said Sem
ator Curtis. refused hatly to con-
slider the FIRST amendment on the
program-the Senate provision re-
storing the half-and-half."
On the other hand. the House
conferees asserted that the Sena-
tors wanted to begin work on the
super structure instead of the foun-
dation. and that they refused to
begin with Section l OF the bill.
When the Senators suggested
that the House members go back
and ask for q vote on the propo-
sition by the House. they retorted
that the Senate had never yet voted
on the half-and-half plan, and that
they had better get q vote them
selves"
Both Sides Adamant
Already a continuing resolution
Is being discussed. showing that
neither side is inclined to yield.
They had US handicapped last
year" said one of the House con-
ferees. because the bill carried in
creases in pay to the school teach

hold out for a continuing resolu-
tion that would have deprived Dis
trict employees Of increases"
The hogs eye is 'sot,'" declared
q House conferee. explaining by
saying they were going to stand
pat"
I'VE asked them" said Senator
Curtis. +-if they would proceed with
discussion of the taxation and other
features of the bill, and they re-
fused There was nothing to do
but to adjourn, and the response
bility remains with the House con-
ferees to call the next meeting. The
Senate conferees are ready to go on
with the bill at any time II the
House fails to call q meeting II
will be necessary to introduce q
resolution bringing the matter be-
fore the Senate again"
Split on Half-and-Half.
The vote on the half-and-half
showed the three Senate conferees
lined up solidly against the House
conferees who voted for the abolish
