An assist for the Brannan
plan has come from former
Secretary of agriculture Gin
ton p. Anderson. now u. S.
senator from New Mexico.
Anderson is telling his colleagues
that the program Clocks better" to
him all the time.
He contends Brannan had clari-
fled a great many things in his tes-
timony before congressional hear

tention of abandoning the plan of
supporting the price of storable
commodities with loans.

Truman Drops Plans
To Stump Country
For Support of
Platform Promises

WASHINGTON - (ANP) - Presi-
dent Truman has dropped plans To
stump the country to arouse sup
port for Democratic Party platform
promises.
Mr.. Truman told newsmen In
press conference Thursday he would
stay in washington as long as Con-
gress is in session to spur action on
what party leaders have called
must legislation. Last week Sen.
Scott Lucas, majority leader, failed
to place Civil Rights and Fair En-
ployment legislation on the must
list for this session of Congress
thereby provoking nationwide criti-
cism from Negro supporters of the
administration.
Earlier the President had limited
that he would appeal to the voting
public, if the stubborn S1st Congress
did not support administration bills.

ed that Negroes have not learned
to pay the cost of organization"
Using as his subject, Some mis-.
conception and Misuses of Educa-
tion," he built his address around
the idea that people who have re-
ceived educational opportunities
must not isolate themselves from
the great masses of people. Ac-
cording "they must sit together be-
cause the problems of the masses
are the problems Of the intellec-
tuals.
Contending that the majority Of
people with whom we are identified

of our people are unskilled; and
that the majority of Negroes are
unorganized." DR.. Lanier warned
that IF we do not relate democratic
principles to living, the procession
will leave us. And finally he indi-
Gated that we are moving into the
great area of human relations.

CANTON (Sunday) Aug. 28.-
The national Defense Ministry
today announced that Chinese
Communists have captured Lam
chow, bastion of Nationalist re-
sistance in Northwest China.
The ministry said the defenders
withdrew Thursday night and
Red troops entered the next day.
The government of Kansu

The Nationalists claimed gains,
however, on the front nearest this
refugee capital.
Private reports said the Nation
alists had counterattacked and re-
captured all three Of the Nan
towns in a 35-mile-wide arc 140
miles northeast of Canton. The
three places are Kiennan, Lung
nan and Tingnan.
Reds Capture Anhwa.
At least temporarily this stalled
the Reds avoWed aim of driving
so miles west and cutting the Can
ton railway at Kukong.
Farther north, the National De-

recapture of Anhwa, 80 miles west
of Changsha and 400 miles north
west of Canton.
The ministry also virtually ad-
mitted loss of TSingkiang (Chuan-
chow on the coastal highway, As
miles northeast of Annoy. Private
reports said Tsingkiang had fallen,
but the ministry said its situation
was "obscured.' An armored divi-
sion. presumably from the island
of Formosa, is being sent to REIN
force Annoy, the ministry reported.
Temporary loss Of radio contact
with Lanchow. capital Of the dis

Threat Seen by Lucas
In Proposal 10 Force
Truman 10 Cut Funds
BY the Associated Press

Senate Majority Leader Lucas
said yesterday that dangerous
authority" turks in the proposal
to give President Truman power to
slash up to $4,000, 100000 in con-
gressional appropriations.
The Illinois Senator lashed out
at the powerful coalition of Demo-
Gratis and Republicans backing the
proposal as it headed for a vote
tomorrow in the Senate.
Although a majority Of 50 has
demanded the right to ballot on
the idea, the parliamentary situa-
ton may require suspension Of the
rules to vote on it. This would call
for a two-thirds majority-or "a
Senator's if all 96 vote. The Lucas
camp claims not all the 50 will
support it.
Senator Lucas told a reporter
that the proposal would give Mr..
Truman authority he does not
want and involves purse-string
controls that Congress should
be unwilling to surrender"
Must Save 5 Per Cent.
It would order the President to
save not less than nor more than
10 per cent of the funds allowed
by Congress in the various annual
appropriations.
Heading the drive for the meas
ure is Senator Mcclellan. Demo-
crat, of Arkansas, who, with his
hackers. has been pressing Senator
Lucas for weeks to bring it to a
vote.
Senator Mcclellan and other
supporters of the measure contend
the President and Congress must
share responsibility for budgetary
problems and that the Chief Ex-
ecutive-as we'll as the lawmakers
should have the opportunity to
pare spending.
Senator Lucas resisted all ap-
peals for a vote even after the
economy group signed up rs Dem
ocrats and 81 Republicans-far
more than the 40 majority of the
Senate-to a petition asking con-
sideration.
Rider on Money Bill.
/ Now Senator Mcclellan has Of
fered the economy directive as a
rider to the huge $4,000. 900, 900
appropriation for the Army, Navy
and Air Force. The Senate reached
that figure by cutting the bill ST.
118.000.000 below amounts voted
by the House. It is up for a final
vote tomorrow.
Senator Mcclellan and other
advocates of the directive say that
slashes already made by Congress
below budget estimates of the
President would be credited under
the IS and 10" economy order.
But Senator Lucas said Con-
gress already has sheared about
81 800, 900, 900 from Mr.. Truman's
original requests. If any other
reductions are to be made, Sena-
tor Lucas said Congress should
take the responsibility.

mittee, indicated yesterday he
still has hope Senate leaders will
be able to set some definite ad-
journment goal. He suggested,
for example, a possible Senate
agreement to concentrate on bills
already passed by the House, on
the theory that there is little use
passings Senate bills when the
House is not here to consider

will be through the Senate and
ready fer conference. but with no
certainty that there will be any
House conferees here to meet with
the Senate.
Thus, two bills are in a dead
lock, and the other two may not
even get into a conference room
for three more weeks because of
the House recess.
In the case of the Civil Func-
tions bill, Chairman Cannon of
the House Appropriations Com
mittee contends the Senate is
holding out for projects not rec
Commended by the Budget Bureau
and "unjustified."
Chairman McKellar of the Sen
ate Appropriations Committee re-
plies they (the House, have

Mr.. Cannon said that while the
conferees were in session some
days ago on the Civil Functions
bill, the Senators decided they
did not want to confer on that
bill until the ECA measure was
agreed tot
Senator McKellar comes back
with the reply that since that
incident occurred I'VE have had
two meetings on the Civil Func-
tions bill" Senator McKellar
! adds that the Senate committe
clerk, acting under instructions,
has asked for meetings almost
daily--as recently as Friday.
] Representative Cannon told the
House Thursday, when it was max
ing plans for the recess, that in
the fight over the ECA bill the
Senate is demanding surrender
on the part of the House on every
item" Mr.. Cannon said the House
has already voted on the Senate s
ECA Watchdog Committee pro-
posal and has instructed its con-
ferees to resist it, by vote of
210 to 164. He said the House
conferees are only asking the Sen
ate Spokesmen to take that issue
and the German plant diSmantl-
ing amendment back to the Sen
ate for another vote.
Senator McKellar's reply is that
the Senate conferees first offered
to cut the $4,000 Watchdog
fund to 100000 and later to cut
it in half. He said the Senators
also offered to cut the $25, 900 for
the German plant survey in half
1.-THE Senate conferees have done
everything in their power to Sc
cure reasonable compromise on
both bills" said Senator McKellar
Cannon May Go to Missouri.
Representative Cannon said Fri
day he expects to go to Missouri,
but could fly back here in five or
six hours if the conferees want
to meet.
With House leaders having de-
cided to transact no business in
that chamber until September 81
however, there could be no final
action on any of the appropria-
ton bills even If conferees met
and settled their differences in
the meantime.
A few members of the House
who happen to be in town will
hold perfunctory session each
Tuesday and Friday, but only
long enough to meet and adjourn.

here last week by the Democratic

According to Senate majority

the only bills up for priority action
by Congress before its tentative

pansion of the reciprocal trade
program, repeal Of the Taft-Hart-

The dropping of the civil rights

than a flag Of surrender, it is a
