Senator Wherry (Neb.), The re-
publican whip. told a reporter that
if this plan is approved by the
banking committee ST think it will
carry in the congress-"
The author of the proposal is
Senator Buck (R.-Del.). He is
chairman of a banking subcom-
mittee which was directed to draft
rent control legislation after the
full committee heard more than
two weeks of highly conflicting
testimony.
Senator Taylor (D.-Idaho), a
member of the subcommittee and
advocate Of a fun%year4s extension
Of rent ceilings without any gener-
al increase, agreed than Buck pro
|posal probably would be approved.
Taylor also denied reports that
President Truman threatened to
veto any flat unconstitutional in
crease. The senator reported Mr..
Truman merely reaffirmed his OPP
position to blanket increases or re
moval of controls, now scheduled
to expire June 80.
"The veto matter was not men
toned by me or the president
Taylor said of his White House
conference earlier this week.
The Buck proposal would re
move all rental controls from the
jurisdiction of OPA and vest en-
fcrcement in federal courts.
All new housing or that not
previously under control would be
free from ceilings. as would all
hotel quarters.
Owners of housing that was
rented at the start of this year
could increase rents up to 10 per
cent.
Wherry had asked that all OPA
controls be ended April 80. He
said he still prefers that but the
Buck proposal differs very little
from mine except that state legis-
latures would have 10 months in
stead of two to enact any state
rent controls"
