House Changes Rules of Rules Com. .-MtkeIIer in
 Sendte's Chief Chair

WASHINGTON, Jan. 3.--tR-The new Democrat.c-controlled Congress met today. Administration men promptly rammed through the House new rule aimed to ease the way for President Truman's leg islative program.
 Although there were squawks from Republican leaders and some Democrats. the rule went through on voice approval after 275 to l42 test roll call vote.
 Voting for the rule change were 225 Democrats, 49 Republicans and one American-Laboriee. Against it were III Repu-lics $ and 3l Den,- ocrats.
 The test was generally regarded among the legislators as a measure of MT. Truman's increased power ol i Capitol Hill since his election vict tory.
 1 SWAT FOR COMMITTEE The Rules Committee decides what measure shall be considered by the House.
 l Under the new rule If the Rules Committee does not send a bill to the House floor with in 21 days after legislative com mittee approves it, the chairman of the legislative committee can move on the floor to take up the bill. A majority vote by the members present then would place the bill before the House. Some Republicans grumbled that the power to recognize committee chairmen would make Sam Ray burn of Texas, the newly-installed Democratic speaker, a "czar' over what legislations is considered.
 RAYBURfl TO BE BOSS Rayburn, when taking office, in- dicated he will go down the line for what he considers to be the Demo- cratic partys mandate from the election.
 He told the House that Congress would be united on matters of in- ternat.onal affairs but
 "On many Democratic issues we will divide.
 "The Democratic party has heen called to solve them. We'll miss our mark if we do not live up to the expectations of the American peo- ple."
 ADJOURN TO WEDNESDAY
 Both House and Senate adjourn ed until Wednesday when President Truman will deliver personally his state of the union message.
 The gavel for the opening Senate session also fell at l2 noon, sharp.
 senator Vandenberg tR-Mich) called the session to order at 12.00 noon as President pro tenn of the old Senate.
 McKELLAR IGNORED
 The slate of Senate officers chosen by the Democrats at a party meet ing last week was promptly elected. A Republican motion to continue Senator vandenberg as president pro tempore was defeated 50 to 40.
 Then Senator McKellar (D-Tenn) was elected to the post by voice vote. McKellar took the presidint officers chair.

The W Washington Merry Go Round

WASHINGTON = A compromise solution to the dynamite laden civil-rights program has been work ed out by Arkansas Congressman Brooks Hays. It may prevent the battle of Northern Democrats vs Southern Democrats which could bog Congress down for weeks.
 The Hays compromise is to side step the Federal Employment Prac- tices Commission, otherwise known as FEPC.
 Several Southern solons are now reluctantly ready to admit they cannot block the anti-lynching bill. The poll tax is no longer a real issue, since approximately one-half the Southern states have already abolished it on their own initia- tive. This leaves FEPC as the real sore thumb in the Truman civil rights program.
 Congressman Hays solution is to substitute for the FEPC an em- ployment counseling service. This

 With Mrs. Rust, he left Fair Banks las: September 30 for visit with heir children and friends in the States.

 The couple plan to drive home over the Alaska Highway as soon as weather conditions permit them to start.
 Rust, who first went to Alaska from Seattle in 1900 and last was Outside the Territory in 1904 and 1905, was not too pleased with either Seattle's chilly wea her or it's congestion.

 Even in the absence of that out lay the chief executive declared, the nation faces an S873,OOO,OOo 1850 deficit piled atop a S6OO,OOO,- GOO red ink entry for l949-unless taxes are raised.
 Soberly MT. Truman declared that future budgets will have to be bigger yet to meet Americas s mounting responsibilities in the world and to pay to bill for a greatly expanded military estab- .iShment al home.
 Thus the President renewed with emphasis his plea that Con- gress jump taxes S4,0o0,000,o ,o00 year-not counting higher levies for increased social security bene- fits and new health insurance program he wants to start the new deal ball rolling again.
 These important disclosures were made on highest authority following issuance of the budget message:
 1. The President figures on July being the effective date for the $4,0OO, ,000-a-year tax hike he wants on corporation, estates and middle and upper" bracket in come. He thinks it may yield only S2,000, 100000 in fiscal 1850, how ever, because of a time lag in col lectionS.
 2. The President expects to fi- nance his proposed national health insurance program with a 12 of one per cent total tax on payrolls, beginning next July 1. Employees and employers each would pay M of one per cent.
 ! 3. An estimate that individual income tax collections in 1850 will yield $19, ,135, 100000 reckons tha; | individual incomes will remain al the recent record-high annual rate of $215,0OO, 100000 and the fedora income tax alone will drain off nearly ole-tenth of that.
