Acts to Expedite Solution.

Senator Bilbo indicated appoint
ment Of the new committee did not
mean that its work would impinge
on the Burton subcommittee hear
ings and investigation of Washing
tons blighted areas and the need
for reclamation. Rather, he con-
tended, his move was intended to
expedite solution.
1t had been anticipated, however,
that the Tydings bill, the McCarran
measure and the urban redevelop-
ment bill all would be referred to
the Burton subcommittee. In fact,
Senator Burton had planned at the
conclusion of the general study to
hold hearings on each of the several
different bills.
Senator Burton was named chair
man of the Slum Clearance Sub
committee late last year by Senator
McCarran when he was chairman OF
the District Committee. Other men,
oers OF the Burton group are Sen
ators McCarran, Tydings and Cap

January.

one OF Senator Bilbos first ac-

washington alley dwellings. He
called attention to the fact that thf
1884 Alley Dwelling Act specified
that occupancy of alley dwellings
must cease by that date.
Later, he modified his view wher
convinced it would be physically
impossible to find other or bette,
housing for the 1900 or more allel
dWellers by July /. He said he
would favor an extension of the
deadline If constructive program
were charted meanwhile.

MEET TO DISCUSS
BOLIVIA PLANNED

WASHINGTON Jan. 6. Up -
Secretary of State Hull announced
today that the United States and
10 other American nations would
begin immediate consultations on
whether to recognize the new revo-
lutlonary government of Bolivia.
The main question to be decided
Hull said is whether external in
fluences unfriendly to the Allied
cause were chiefly responsible for
the overthrow of the former b.
llvian government and the rise to
power of the present regime.
The implication was clear that
if unfrieadly influences were found
to be behind the new regime set
up Dec. 20 under the PRESIDENCY
of Major Gualbrto Villarroel rec
ognition would be withheld. This
raised the possibility that in such
an event strong measures express
ing disapproval might be adopted
IN concert by the agreeing Amer
lean nations.
Closely linked with the consul
tatlons on Bolivia which will be
carried on through the machinery
OF the inter-American emergency
consultative committee for politi.
cal defense is the attitude of the
other American nations toward the
Argentine government of Gen.
