ACTION. NoTFORCED FEEDING
 BASIS FOR PLEA BY TRUMAN

WASHINGTON-PresidentT Tru- mans complaint that ga handful of men" can block a vote by the whole Congress on a major legis- lative proposal is a fact but it needs some explaining.
 When a bill is introduced it is referred to committee by the president of the Senate or the speaker of the House. This has be- come major political strategy. A Friendly" committee can do won ders with a bill. An "unfriendly" one can play havoc either by pig eonholing it or making it look ob- jectionable in hearings.
 AS the federal government dip ped deeper into national controls the committees have overlapped.
 Thus, housing legislation has . been considered in the Senate by the committees on Public Housing and Grounds, Banking and Cur rency, and Education and Labor. Many such examples could be given.
 Previous to the Hoover admin istration the Senate Committee on Manufactures was one of the most important in that chamber Sen. Bob" LaFollette, Sr., was chair man and although he was nomin- ally Republican, the Republicans refused to entrust important bills to man with his economic views. As result the Senate Committee on Manufactures has steadily de- clined in power and the Interstate Commerce Committee has steadily risen.
 The fight between the White House and Capitol Hill dates al- most all the way back to the be- ginnings of our government. Since the Civil War only Presidents Gar field and Harding have come so recently from Congress as Presi- dent Truman, yet neither of these predecessors were remarkably suc- cessful in their relations with Capitol Hill.
 On the one hand, it seems, the Chief Executives have been too ignorant of Congressional methods to understand them. On the other a few have seemed to know too
