WAYS and Means Commit

Votes on Floor

A rebellion Of four members of
the Ways and Means Committee
was seen in the House this morn
ing as a motion by Rep. Jesse Lam
der to pigeon-hole the appropria-
ton bill for the flat-broke Depart
ment OF Labor until March l was
carried by 9-7 vote.
According to Chairman Leo
Rogge OF the Ways and Means
Committee, the bill calling for a
S47,650 appropriation in advance
of other departmental appropria-
ticns was introduced because the
Department of Labor has no funds
with which to operate 1t is now
drawing on a small emergency
fund.

The House rebuked itself in
tucking the bill away until March
] First the Representatives adopt
ed an amendment raising the Com
missioner of Labor's salary to S.
coo per year TO conform with sal
aries paid other departmental
heads. Then the House voted down
an amendment offered by Rep. Jo-

effect, cancelled the effectiveness
Of the emergency clause by adopt

The W ashington
Merry Go Round
BY DREW PEARSON
eNdajor Robert s. Allen on active dutyD

WASHINGTON shipowners'
lobby to increase war profits fired
its first shot behind closed doors
the other day in the Senate Com
merce Committee. 1t resulted in a
duel between Senator Bennett Clark
of Missouri, outspoken foe of the
shipping lobby, and Senator George
Radcliffe of Maryland, who ran
interference for the shipowners.
Radcliffe announced that he was
planning to offer bill to nullify
Section 9O2, the so-called enhance
ment clause" of the Maritime Act
of 1885,
This provides that when ships
are seized by the government,
shipowners shall be paid pre-war
prices. not prices enhanced by the
emergency.
Comptroller General Lindsay
Warren since has ruled that all
ship prices must be governed by
the market value of ships on Sep
teinber 8, l939-the date of an
emergency proclamation by the
President. But the. shipping lobby
is demanding that the enhance
ment clause" be amended to make
it possible for them to receive the
l943 going market" price, not the
1889 price. for ships seized by the
government or sunk.
Senator Radcliffe didn't go this
far, but he favored legislation per-
hitting shipowners to sue the, gov
eminent in the Court of Claims for
the difference between the Sep
tenber 8, 1899, price and the 1913
estimated price.
CLARK SHOOTS AT PROFITS
However, the Marylander's efforts
to sell the committee on the
compromise" ran into a rough
stiff-arm from Clark of Missouri.
Your proposal if enacted, would
open the door to the collection of
millions of dollars of unearned
profits from the government,
Clark told Radcliffe. "A great
number of the ships were built
before the emergency, when labor
and material costs were low, yet
you would make it possible for the
owners to collect the full 1943 mar
ket value for them.
Furthermore, your propos |
would mean that the government
would, in effect. be buying back
what the taxpayers money helped
