march, playing medleys of "Su-
vance River" Dixie" and Mary

CeNer Asks Agencies
For Ideas on Coping
With A-Bomb Attack

Chairman Celler of the House
judiciary Committee said today
he is comforting with administra-
tive agencies on legislation pro-
viding for continuance of the Fed
eral government in case Washing
ton is hit by an atom bomb.
Mr.. Celler, said he discussed this
problem with several members of
the Judiciary Committee today
but will delay committee action
until further study.
Several bills, one of which would
set up a seven-man commission,
are pending before the Judiciary
Committee, Mr.. Celler said, but
none has been referred to any
subcommittee.
Holifield for Commission.
The bill for a seven-man COM
mission, introduced by Represent
ative Holifield, Democrat, of Cali
fornia, is a very sensational bill, +"
Mr.. Celler said. He pointed out
that it concerns the possible sue
cession to the presidency and may
involve constitutional amendments
and said he did not want to take
hasty action.
Personally" the chairman
said, II feel there is merit in these
bills, and something may have to
be done. But I want to orient
myslef on the whole situation and
get reports from the executive
agencies before proceeding with
any committee action
Mr.. Celler talked with reporters
after an executive meeting of the
Judiciary Committee today.
Could Be Wiped Out, He Says.
Mr.. Holifield said some early
action should be taken because
lit is entirely possible that most
of the Federal Government could
be wiped out by an atomic bomb
explosion here"
Both Washington and Mos
COW, he said, are possible targets
for an atomic bomb, both from
psychological and crippling view
point"
Mr.. Holifleld said he is deeply
concerned over the problem be-
cause of his congressional expert
snce with the atomic energy
problem. He witnessed the atomic
bomb tests at Bikini in 1916, and
visited both japanese cities hit
by the bomb.
Would Form Commission.
The Holifield resolution intro
duced last February would estab-
lish a commission of one each
from the Senate, House, Supreme
Court. National Security Council,
National Security Resources
Board, Atomic Energy Commits
sion and the Secretary of De-
fense.
The commission would investi-
gate the feasibility of setting up
an alternate seat of government,
the possible site, buildings and ia
cilities, and the problem of max
ing duplicate copies of important
Government documents.0
SUGGESTIONS Studied.
Procedures also would be stud
led for selecting the President,
Vice President and members of
Congress, in case the incumbents
were wiped out.
Under present law new Senators
could be appointed by the Gov
ernors, Mr. Holified explained. but
there is no provision, except by
special elections, for setting up
a new House of Representatives
quickly.
If and when he is called to
testify on his bill Mr.. Holifield |
said he plans to suggest that the
Governors be authorized to act /
as an interim House of Represen-
tatives until elections could be
held.
