E!x!por'f-Impo:lrt Bank n.
Backed by House Unii
By the Associated Pres.

The House Banking Committee
late yesterday approved Senate
passed legislation prolonging the life
Of the $500 o0o,o 600 Export Import
Bank from its present June 30, 1948,
expiration date to June 80, 1858. =
The action came after William
McC Chesney Martin, jr., bank presi-
dent, told the committee 1t is "in
the interest of United States en-
ployment and industry" to continue
the bank operations, promoting the
foreign trade of the United States.
MIR. Martin said the Export Import
Bank has authorized loans aggregat-
ing $3,700 ,o00, 900 since it was Gre
ated in 1884 without cost to the
Government, but actually as a sub
stantial profit"
The banks statutory lending au-
thority Is $500, ,000, 900.
Mr.. Martin told the committee, II
am perfectly willing to say we've in
the danger zone now" in the overall
lending program, but, he continued,
Export Import Bank loans on the
present basis are sound and de-
sirable.
Mr.. Martin would not agree that
foreign loans by the United States
might bring on another depression
Nor did he elaborate on his danger
zone" statement.
Representative Buffet, Republican,
of Nebraska interposed that some
members of Congress "are very des-
|perately afraid that the continued
expansion of Government credit TO
foreign governments might result: in
la blowup such as occurred In 1929. y

Freighi Rate Ruling
Is Hailed in South,
Criticized in East
By The Assoeiaied pfsss

/. The Supreme Court decision yes
terday on class freight rates was
greeted with approval Ii the South
and with criticism Ia the East. but
there was general agreement that
|it VIII encourage industrial growth
In the South.
The decision upheld an Interstate
Commerce Commission order tc
boost rates on manufactured prod
ucts 10 per cent in the Northeast
and lower than 10 per cent IL
Southern and Western States easi
OF the Rockies as the first step 01
an eventually planned equality fol
the whole country.
Railroad officials generally with
held comment last night pending a
study of the decision. As q dis
senter to the Ia decision, Justice
jackson estimated the order would
increase by $50, 900 900 the freight
charges paid by northeastern ship
pers. The majority opinion written
by Justice Douglas found, however
that the Northeast long had prac-
ticed. economic discrimination
against the South through the ex-
isting rate system, and that the
order served to correct such preju-
dice
Governor Secs Action Final.
In Columbus, Ohio, Kenneth
Safer, special assistant attorney
general, predicted q conference
among representatives OF eight other
States which acted jointly with Ohio
In fighting the ruling. Those other
States were Delaware, Indiana.
Maryland, Michigan, New Jersey
New York and Pennsylvania.
However, Ohio Gov. Thomas ].
Herbert, who was attorney general
at the inception of the case and
appointed Mr.. Safer, said: After
the Supreme Court speaks, there s
not much more you can do"
William Blake, in charge OF rail
tariffs for the Ohio Utilities Com
mission, estimated the decision
would cost Ohio shippers upward
of $6,000,0 900 a year, and Mr.. Safer
commented that the Ohio stove in
dustry probably would be particu-
larly hard hit because 1t competed
with Southern factories.
Norris w. Ford, executive of the
Connecticut Manufacturers Asso-
citation and chairman of the New
England Governors Freight Rate
Committee, said the ruling was
'very Disappointing"
Step Forward, Says Caldwell.
Gov. Millard Caldwell of Florida
called the ruling "a great step for
ward" and Gov. Strom Thurmond
of South Carolina said 1t woulo
''tend to place the South on parity
with other States and enable us tc
compete with them along industrial
lines"
However, Gov. Thurmond said
I'VE are going to continue the fight
until We get complete equalization.
Former Gov. Ellis Arnall Of
Georgia, under whose administra-
lion the State instituted an anti.
trust action charging that the rail-
roads conspired to fix discriminatory
freight rates, said the decision still
leaves "the South at 20 per cent
disadvantage" in rates and that I'VE
have got to get absolute equality"
Georgia's present. Governor, M. E
Thompson, said the suit would be
pushed. as s's
