that they have won their free

WASHINGTON Scene

I WAS out with a big coffee
Il magnate the other night,
dating a couple OF bags, when
he said:
"How do you feel about the
proposed airport at Antelope
Island, Utah:"
! told the magnate I had no
feelings on that subject, or any
other right then except a ter
rifle pain in the neck caused by
present company. He said he
( h oug ht l should give some
thought TO Antelope Island
Senator Mcmahon IL against
IT," he said. "TIe doesn't see why
the country should spend a lot
Of money for an airport there
just TO accommodate n herd of
moose"
| asked the magnate If he
would mind explaining what the
devil he was ranting about and
he said / should read page S579,
middle column, Of the Congress

1T contains one Of the finest
pieces OF debating I have read
In years." he said. 'It seems the

country.
The measure sponsored
by Senator Pat McCarran, OF
Nevada, who naturally wishes
his state TO have a fair share Of
these imports. Senator Me-
MAhon, of Connecticut, il for
tho bill generally but ne thinks
Senator McCarran is trying to
lnterJect too many screwy
items"
"You mean Senator McCarran
wishes too much for Nevada
and not enough for COnnecti-
cute" / asked.
THAT may have something
10 do with IT," admitted the
magnate. But just read the
record for yourself"
l did-and here goes:
Mr.. MCMAHON: II have in
my hand a booklet entitled
National Airport Plan, which
purports TO be a letter from
the acting secretary of COM
merce transmitting a report of
n survey of the need for a sys-
tenn OF airpOrts and landing
areas throughout the United
States. 1 presume the senator
from Nevada il familiar with
the proposed plan"
MIR. McCARRAN: 81 believe
am familiar with it,"
MR.. MCMAHON: Does II
meet with the senator's approval
a. an implementation Of the
provisions Of the pending bile"
MR.. McCARRAN: IL would
answer the question yes, but
1 have not made a study with
reference To the location or the
locale of the airports TO which
reference Is made I'm the plan.
did not believe that TO be a
part of my particular duty"
MR.. MCMAHON: 81 am happy
to hear that, because have
been examining this plan and I
have found, pr example, that
Sl5,600 was allOcated for a plant
at Antelope Island, Utah. In
Vestigation has disclosed that at
that point there il hut one
family and herd of moose.
Certainly at that point an air
port Is not needed TO fly moose
meat into Chicago, because the
rationing of meat IN about over.
return TO the senator's state
of Nevada and find under
this plan for which we are
asked TO appropriate several
hundred million dollars, 73 air
ports have been projected for
cities or towns i'm Nevada, 22
Of which have a population Of
less than hundred people.
am glad 20 know that the sena-
tor does not adhere 10 the plan
to implement this bill, because
TO my mind lt IL as fantastic
as anything I have ever seen In
my life"
MR.. McCARRAN: "Let me
say that the people OF Nevada
travel In n very high class man
ner, and therefore they want
airports everywhere"
