Senate, House Locked
Over Housing Bill as
Taft Bars Compromise
BY The Asseeiotsd Press

BJ me ASsoetoieo Pfess
Senate and House Republican
leaders were deadlocked today
in their feud over housing as
Senator Taft, Republican, of
Ohio refused to compromise.
Chairman Wolcott Of the House
Banking Committee already has
made it clear that the House COP
chieftains plan to yield no ground.
Senator Taft, chairman of the
Senate Republican Policy Commit
tee, told a reporter he will make
no effort to settle the dispute.
That means, the Ohioan added,
that there is no prospect for any
early revival of the Governments
home loan insurance program which
lapsed last week.
Truman Praises Senate Bill.
From President Truman, mean
while, came Q statement that the
housing shortage is almost fatal.
He made the remark in q talk yes
terday to the National Conference
on Family Life. During the talk,
the President praised the Taft-El-
lender-Wagner long-range housing
bill, the basis Of the Senate House
dispute.
II sincerely hope" he said, "that
the House Of Representatives will
study the legislation and give us the
opportunity to act on this prob
lem"
The split between the House and
Senate leaders occurred two days
ago when the Senate passed stop
gap bill to continue the program
until June 80. Mr.. Wolcott shot
back that the House Is mot inter-
ested" in anything but long-term
extension.
Delaying Tactics" Charged.
Mr.. Wolcott accused the Senate
of employing delaying tactics" in
failing to act on the House-passed
bill providing for q continuance
through next March. And he said
the House is not going to be pres
sured" by Childish tactics"
The main issue in the row is q
public housing provision In the Taft
bill designed to spur the building
of 100000 new homes during the
next decade.
Senator Taft and other hackers
Of the bill, recently passed by the
Senate, contend that acceptance Of

would iepardize the section Of the
Taft bill providing for 100000 gov
ernment-owred and operated public
housing units.
There is a long-term extension of
loan insurance in the Taft measure.
Senator Taft and those backing him
feel that to set the insurance pro-
gram up In separate bill would
give the House an excuse for shelv-
ing public housing and the rest
Of the omnibus long-range measure
as 1t did two years ago.
Senator Taft said there Is mo
justification" for any contention
that the Senate Is trying to force
public housing on the House.
But I do object to the real estate
lobbies trying to get their insurance
program in separate legislation in
an effort to kill public housing, -
Senator Taft added.
No harm will be done, he said,

 On the domestic side, Pearson publcized a new sodium fluorine method of painting childrens teeth to prevent decay, adopted nationwide by den- lists. He exposed various housing frauds against veterans with resulting indictments in Dallas Los Angeles Baltimore and other cities. He campaigned for better education facilities for children and higher pay for teachers and suggested that service clubs in the North discuss North-South problems with the South This resulted in round table conference of Rotary Kiwanis, Lions and other groups in Mont gomery, Ala, North-South problems
 These and other activities resulted in Pearsons being named Father Of the Year" General Eisen- hover presented the award
 Pearson did many exposes in this traditional role of Washington watchdog
 Still in the headlines today is the State Depart ment spy case, first news of which appeared in the Washington Merry Go-Round Most readers have for gotten that early Feb 13, 1948 Pearson first revealed that Soviet code clerk had informed Can adan authorities of spy ring involving Canadian and American officials.

kin was certainly tonic tor the sagging spirits of John Rankin, fire-eatin Congressman from Tu- pelo, Mississippi.
 Genuinely weary from a strenuous campaign, Rankin was also depress- ed by the indictment of Parnell Thomas. Chairman of the Un- American Activities Committee.
 This Committee may now be headed by lanky John Wood of Georgia, and Wood, during his pre- vious Craftsmanship, had been a willing puppet in the hands of Rankin. But the indictment of Thomas had put the Committee in such bad odor that its pros poets of survival in the 61st Con- gress slid close to zero. This would have left to Rankin on the more prosaic task of heading the Veter- ans Committed And no headlines come from working for veterans.
 So Rankin was in the depths of despair.
 Then suddenly Committee inves- tigator Bob Stripling pulled the top from a ''punkin.' Headlines and radio screamed the story! Ran kin leaped into the line of news men's cameras and was snapped

 Those who see Rankin daily will tell you that, overnight, lines dis appeared from his face, satisfaction oozed from his countenance, his stopping shoulders became erect, his voice had a new vigor, and his step became that of an 18-year- cid soldier marching in his first big-time parade with his best girl a spectator. Asf
 Discovery" of that microflim in q "punkin' had done the trick It had supplied just the spectacular publicity needed to assure contin- uance of the House Un-American Activities Committee during the 81st Congress.
 Lanky John Wood, Georgia, would again be puppet chairman, dancing and gyrating to the strings pulled by Rankin.
 For most people it takes lot of sugar, cinnamon and other spices to make pumpkin palatable, but a roll or two of microfilm made a pumpkin a lifesayer for John Ran sin.

MERRY-GO-ROUND BIRTHDAY

The Washington Merry-Cio- Round today begins its 17th year of whirng the Nations Capital and in the newspapers of the USA. Born Dec. 13, 1882 in the ebb days of the Hoover Administration the column started with only six newspapers. It is now Cuba. Spain India Italy, Ecuador, Venezuela, Mexico and The Philippines.
 The six papers which started off with the Merry c;oRolnd back in December 1892 still with it. with the exception of one, defunct They are:
 The Huntington (Wa. Va) Advertiser, Portland (Mel Express Evanston CI) News-Index (no longer nublishedl Buffalo CN Y) rer-Express Des Moines qa) Register and the Scranton (Pa) Re- publican tnow the Tribune). The New York Daily Mirror was added almost immediately
 Time Magazine recognizing the influence and anniversary of the column, this week features Drew Pearson on it's cover and made him the per sonage of the week.
 Incidentally December 13 also happens to be Pearosns birthday. He says that he is not worried about the number thirteen and just to show what he thinks of superstition, he "l313" as his office number 29th Street while his District of Columpla auto license is "K-13-"
 The Merry -Go-Round year just closed marks one of the most important in it's history. It saw Drew Pearson working constructively for the nation and serving as watchdog against graft and inefficiency First came Friendship Train described by diplomats as having done more perhaps to help American good will in Europe than other postwar enterprise

 Note-apparently the Admirals take their cue from a confiden- tial directive issued by Secretary Of Defense Forrestal, in which he said: Tt is to the mutual interest of all of us to minimize public evil dence of friction among the ser vices" In other words, he seem- ed not so concerned about stop- ping all pickering, but in not let ting it leak to the public.
 TONGUE-TfED WAYNE COY
 President Truman understood perfectly the other day when To- year-old Wayne Coy, Jr., became tongue tied. Wayne, Jr., and his l7-year-old brother stephen ac- companied their father. who is the Chairman of the Federal Communi- cations Commission, when he went to the White House
 Wayne, Jr., had assured his fath- CT before they reached the White House that he would add the Presidents autograph to his col lection.
 I'm just going to ask him for it." announced the l0-year- old. But when he stood before the President of the United States, he could hardly say How do you do, MT. President as he had so carefully planned.
 Time is precious inside the White House, and as his father started to leave, Wayne, Jr., still hadn't been able to speak up about the covet- cd autograph. So Wayne. ST, be- came his ambassador.
 MI President" he said, Wayne here said he was going to ask you for your autograph and I know he wants it. He's just too scared to open his mouth right now
 T know how he feels" remark ed the President, as he sat down to write out his autograph. You know, Wayne, the first time visited here to see the President wasn't able to say anything eith- CT. Of course, it was for a differ ent reason. I got in here and did not get a chance to talk, because the President talked all the time himself

 The early history of heavier than air flying seems still to be open to dispute. This is doubtless why the Kitty Hawk went to England after having been refused place in the Smithsonian Institution the first airplane
 Upon his death last year, Orville Wright, one of the inventors of the machine wied that it be brought back to the United States It will go to the Smith sonan Institution in Washington there to be sus- pended from the ceiling like any other extinct bird That's where should have been all these years instead of in England.

Papers Get Worst of Deal
(Ketchikan News ]

The Daily News and we believe, most other Alaska newspapers plugged for the new postal system. It is of general benefit. Exceptions are the news papers.
 They are now on the same basis as newspapers in the States and must pay pound rates for all zones outside of their zone, besides much extra work in wrapping bundles separately for different zones.
 Before the whole of Alaska zone and considered as county Under that arrangement a citizen had to pay much for sending package through the mail to Ward Cove distance of six miles, as he would pay to send it to Nome. Under the zoning plan they pay according to distance mileage
 Tn the States newspapers hauled free in the county in which they are published, naturally we have no kick coming by having the practice extended to Alaska The general benefit is the thing to be considered above the benefits taken away from the newspapers by the same system.
