ant to instructions heretofore

suant to instructions heretofore
given.
The subcommittee specifically
considered the question of repre-
sentation for territories, as we were
instructed to do 1t Is the opinion
Of the subcommittee that the ques-
ton Of representation for territories
Is one which should be considered
separately from the question of
suffrage for residents of the District
of Columbia. We realize there are
many questions involved which
gravely affect the territories and
residents thereof, but we are con-
vinced these questions should not
only be considered separately from
general resolutions, but perhaps
different questions arise concerning
different territories.
Excludes Senate Voice.
"On the resolution itself, affecting
the District of Columbia, the sub
committee has further considered it
and the amendment proposed by the
Senator from Wyoming, Mr.. O'Ma-
honey. This amendment would au-
thorize the Congress. by appropriate
legislation, to provide representa-
ton for the District in the House
Of Representatives. It would also
authorize legislation to permit the
residents of the District to vote for
presidential electors. It would ex-
clude representation in the Senate.
Upon further consideration of
this amendment, the subcommittee
recommends that the amendment be
adopted and the resolution be re-
ported by the full committee to the
Senate with the recommendation
that 1t pass as amended"

posed over the House total is at
to increased payroll costs
as will be carried into next years
operations.
On top OF this. the O'Mahoney
subcommittee found need for greatly
increased outlays for Gallinger Hos
pital and the schools system.
The Wyoming Senator today also
announced one further change in
the supply bill. This deals with the
rider" which for some years has
been carried in the appropriation
bills banning the use of District
funds for the installation of meters
on Washington taxicabs.
New Taxi Clause Added.
This is continued in the bill. but
on the urgent request of taXicab
spokesman the O'Mahoney sub
committee has added new clause
which would open the way to the
Public Utilities Commission, if it
sees fit, to hold hearings and to con-
slider proposals for the adoption of
the metered cab system.
Senator O'Mahoney said this
merely would preserve the right of
citizens to petition the regulatory
agency and to have their proposals
considered. The PUG, however,
could not order meters into opera
ton without first coming to Con-
gress for abandonment of the present
provision. He explained this would

of Gerald B. Brophy as American
representative to the Interim Coun-
Gil of the Provisional International

On top of Mr.. Truman's warning
on the effect of the coal strike. Col
j. Monroe Johnson, director of the
Office of Defense Transportation,
declared that transportation will re-
quire year or 18 months to recover
even if mining is resumed soon.
He predicted a freight log jam of
critical proportions next fall, when
reconversion is expected to reach
full stride
Col. johnson declared that a
backlog of freight which will &C
cumulate during the embargo start
ing Friday can be expected to pile
up difficulties arising from four ad-
ditional factors:
l. Coal which should be moving
now will have to be distributed next
fall and winter. placing an extra
burden on rail transportation.
2. Reconversion progress by fall
Will increase transportation de-
mands

interviewer New equipment on

Col. johnson said his fear of a
transportation crisis applies princi-
paily to freight movements.

ger travel he added. We'll be able

the facts and to make normal rec

The estimate submitted by the
Commissioners, through the Budget
Bureau, called for an outlay next
year of $81 sos 900. Senator O'Ma-
honey said the House had reduced
this by $8,919 900 primarily because
of a lack of revenues"
Below Original Estimate.
Noting that with all the items re-
stored and the new items added
still would leave the proposed outlay
below the level of the original esti-
mates, Senator O'Mahony said that

feature Of the resolution which the
subcommitte has changed confined
representation to the House. AS
recommended by the subcommittee,
the resolution will not specify the
number of representatives which the
District would be allowed, although
1t could not have more than the
proportionate number allowed the
States on the basis of population.
Senator Hatch pointed out that
under the resolution Congress either
could allow the District the full
House membership to which its pop
ulation would entitle it or could au-
thorize only one delegate, as Terri
tories have.
Senator Hatch also disclosed that
the subcommittee, requested to con-
slider national suffrage for terri
tories along with the District reso-
luton, decided that the two matters
should be taken up separately and
the District resolution should deal
only with Washington citizens.
Inc amendment eliminating rep
resentatlon in the Senate was pro-
posed by Senator O'Mahoney, Dem
ocrat, of Wyoming.

With the national representation
measure reported back to the full
committee, it now has before it
both this resolution and one set

draw up plan for home rule in
the District. The home rule bill, in
troduced by Chairman McCarran,
was discussed briefly today at an
executive session of the Judiciary
Committee. but action was deferred
until next week.

Witnesses Disagree
At Senate Hearing on
National Health Plan
BY the Associated Press

Two witnesses today supported
legislation to set up national
health program, in testimony before
the Senate Labor Committee while
two others opposed it.
The Rev. R. A. MCGOWAN testified
that the National Catholic Welfare
Conference indorses the bills ma
tlonal health insurance feature. but
believes that a board, instead of
the surgeon general, should admin
lister it.
Father MCGOWAN suggested that
funds be made available to colleges
and universities for medical re-
search work.
The Rev. Alphonse M. Schwitalla,
president of the Catholic Hospital
Association, also indorsed in a pre-
pared statement the bills objectives.
He suggested that Federal aid be
extended to private, as well as public,
health service organizations.
Presldent-elect John H. Hayes of
the American Hospital Association
opposed IN statement a section
of the measure which he said would
give a Federal agency complete
control of practically all of the funds
needed to pay physicians, hospitals,
nurses, dentists and others who rem
der care to the sick"
He said he thinks that control
OF funds for compulsory health in
surance program by the Govern
ment would force care of the sick
into an impersonal pattern, adding:
The terrible inertia of Govern
ment regulation could easily retard
further development of health care
In America"
The Rev. John G. Martin. former
president of the American Protes-
tant Hospital Association, said that
when he goes to a hospital for
treatment he wants care by a phv-
slclan who knows him personally
and does not want to be treated by
