BitterDebate Expected
As House Takes Up
Emp|oymentBi||T Today
BY the Associated Press.

By the Associated Press.
The House went to work today on
long-range legislation designed to
ease future labor strife by main
tanning large-scale employment.
Two factions carried to the floor
for debate bitter controversy over
how far the Government should go
in trying to avoid scarcity of jobs
The Expenditures Committee
asked the House to 60 along with
its bill, which outlines Federal
policy o. maintaining "a high level
of employment, production and pur-
chasing power"
Rejection of Measure Urged.
But a group of 116 members
headed by Representatives Outland,
Democrat, of California and Pat
man, Democrat, of Texas called on
their colleagues to reject the COM
mittee measure and adopt one bind
ing the Government to a program
of full employment"
Mr.. Outland said the high level
of employment" pledge was not
enough and wasn't what President
Truman meant when he asked sev-
eral times this fall for full employ
ment" legislation.
d Chairman Manasco of the expend-
itures group, told newsmen, how
ever, he thought the President would
be satisfied with the committee ver-
sion and that Congress "just won't
go any further, anyway"
Provisions of Bill Outlined.
The conEnittee bill would create
a three-menber council Of economic
advisers to- make recommendations
to the President.
The Chief Executive then would
submit suggestions to Congress for
public works projects and other ef-
forts to ease unemployment.
Mr.. Truman criticized the Ex-
penditures Committee six weeks ago
for what he termed damaging de-
lay" in handling the so-called full
employment" measure adopted by
the Senate early in October.
The President asked action before
Thanksgiving, but House leaders
said the best they could do would
be some type of bill" before
Christmas.
Vote May Come Tomorrow.
No vote is expected before late to-
morrow or perhaps Saturday. Then,
if the bill is passed, Senate and
House conferees will attempt to
work out a compromise. The Sen
ate version didn't go as far as Mr..
Truman wanter, either, but admin
istration spokesmen said it would be
acceptable to the President.
The Senate left in the legislation
a policy declaration of trying to
achieve full employment" but it
specified that such efforts be con-
sistent with other Government needs
and obligations. The Senate also
declared that all able-bodied
Americans should be entitled to a
job opportunity if they wanted one.
The House committee stuck out
both these sections
