Omnibus Fund Bill
Didn't Save Money,
Mcclellan Asserts
BY the Associated Press

! Senator Mcclellan, Democrat, of
Tennessee. said today that tax
payers did not benefit from the
experiment of wrapping appro-
priations for almost all Govern
ment agencies into one huge
money bill.
The idea, long advocated by pro-
ponents as money-saving device,
was put into practice by Con-
gress this year for the first time.
| Senator McKellar, chairman of
the Senate Appropriations Com
mittee, told reporter that he
doesn't think the experiment
brought about any saving.
Sees Saving on Old Plan.
On the contrary, he said, st
think we might have saved more
money" if Congress had adhered
to its customary procedure of
passing dozen or SO separate bills
providing funds for various Gov
ernment' departments.
But Senator McKellar said he
wanted to examine the question
further before deciding the exper-
iment should be dropped. He
said the new system has some ad-
vantages.
He already has had some dis
cussions with House Speaker Ray
burn about what should be done
next year, the Senator said, add
ing that Mr.. Rayburn's views ARE
somewhat similar to mine"
1--WE worked like Trojans to
make it work." Senator McKellar
said, referring to his Senate COM
mittee.
Came Too Late.
He said the big trouble" was
that the huge bill, making ap-
propriations of about $35 billion,
was thrown on the Senate near
the end of the session.
The appropriations probably
would have been considered more
carefully in Senate debate, he
said, if they had been broken up
into separate bills which could
have been passed by the House
and taken up in the Senate earlier,
as in the past.
! But tending to offset that, Sem
ator McKellar said, was the
fact that his Senate committee
went to work gathering informa-
ton on the money needs of each
department without waiting for
action by the House. where all
appropriation measures originate.

original testimony of their own

SIowe School Strike
Called Off Except for
|Part-Time First Grade

All Slowe Elementary School
| students. except 40 first graders
scheduled to begin part-time in
struction. reported back to class
today.
1t was last Friday that parents
of the SloWe students refused to
send their children to class in a
one-day protest against establish
ment Of one part time class there
for the first graders as against the
diversified classes which have sew
eral grades in one room.
School Supt Hobart M. Corning
said he would meet with the SloWe
Parent-Teacher Association today
to discuss the situation. He was
attending a New York conference
of educators when the walkout oc-
CURED and was busy this morning
catching up on what he had
missed.
Asked Meeting.
The Slowe PTA met yesterday
and decided to return all the
pupils, except the 40 first graders
whose part-time instruction was
to begin today. They wired a re-
quest for a conference to DR..
Corning.
These 40 children, all under
seven years of age, do not fall un-
der the requirements of the COM
pulsory school attendance law.
Accordingly, school officials con-
template no legal action as child
must be seven before the parents
can be held responsible for keep
ing them out of school.
The SloWe PTA said it consid-
cred the failure of the Board Of
Education to provide adequate
safety provisions (for the 40 first
graders who would attend in the
afternoonD so serious that they
are unable to return their first
grade children to class until a
conference is granted by DR..
/ Corning"
Traffic Risks Cited.
! The PTA said the children
would be getting out of class at
4:30 pm. when traffic hazards
are greatest. In addition, they
would be going to school at a
time that would disrupt the rou-
tine of both the children and their
families.
! SloWe, which has an enrolment
of 244, is designed to serve only
180 pupils. Plans are to complete
six additional rooms on the second
floor by February l, according to
school officials.
But, the PTA said it has no as
surance whatsoever" that part
time will cease on February l..
Construction of the additional
: rooms has not yet begun.

3 Democrat Senators
Join Buchanan Move
To Unvei| Lobbying

Three Democratic Senators have
Joined Representative Buchanan
Democrat, of Pennsylvania in
urging that corporations be re-
quired to make full disclosure of
how much they spend to influence
legislation.
Mr.. Buchanan, chairman of the
special House committee investi-
eating lobbying, said in a state
ment over the week end that he
does not favor curbing lobbying
activity but he thinks it should
be carried on in a goldfish bowl"
Calling lobbying "a billion dollar
industry" he predicted the COM
mittee he heads will recommend
legislation to provide the Amer
lean people with a truer picture of
the ways in which money is spent
to influence Congress.
The Democratic Senators-Elbert
D. Thomas, Utah; Murray, Mon
tana, and Green, Rhode Island
followed that up last night with
Ia statement declaring that Mr..
Buchanan study shows 1.-The
startling fact that Americas lead
ing corporations are spending mil
lions of dollars of the stockholders
money for political propaganda"
Mr.. Buchanan said he regards
the annual spending of hundreds
of millions of dollars to influence
Congress" as good and proper
and in keeping with our great
American rights of free speech
and free press"
But Congress and the people
have right to know who is be-
hind the gigantic campaigns to
influence Congress either directly
or indirectly" he said. -
Present law does not restrict
lobbying activity. 1t requires re-
ports to Congress on the source
land disposition of funds used for
lobbying.
Mr.. Buchanan noted that the
corporations which reported
spending $32 million in answer to
his letter reported only $750,OO0
under the lobbying act. He at
tribtued much of the failure to
report under the lobbying act to
uncertainty as to its applicability.
Also, his QUESTIONABLE covered
expenditures which under the law
need not be reported as lobbying
costs.

HanIey Letter 10 Come
Under Subcommittee
Scrutiny This Week
By J. A. O'Leory

A Senate subcommittee may de-

investigate the controversial Han
ley letter. which has enlivened
the New York political race.
Democrats contend but Repub-
licans deny the letter indicates
Republican 1t. Gov. Joe r. Han
ley was paid off" to run for the
Senate instead of Governor of
New York this year. His switch
in plans enabled Gov. Dewey to
seek another term at Albany.
The American Labor Party in
New York has demanded Sen
ate inquiry, and Senator Gillette.
Democrat, of Iowa, chairman of
the subcommittee appointed to
keep an eye on all senatorial con-
tests, is flying back to Washington
and is expected to arrive late
today.
Anderson Sees Truman in So.
Meanwhile, the political pot be-
gan to boil harder on all fronts
over the week end, with these
other development:
/. Senator Anderson, Democrat
of New Mexico, predicted the
Democrats will renominate Presi-
dent Truman in 1862 without con-
sidering anyone else.
2. Guy George Gabrielson,
chairman of the Republican Ma
tional Committee. and Senator
Anderson, head of the Democratic
Senatorial Campaign Committee,
made their customary conflicting
claims of how the November Con-
gressional election will go.
3. Gov. Dewey accused New
York City Democrats of neglecting
school children there by not using
available money for new buildings.
Meanwhile, Democrats and Re-
publicans alike watched with
interest as the Gillette subcom-
mittee turned attention to the
Hanley letter.
The now famous letter was
written by Mr.. Hanley to Repre-
sentative w. Kingsland Macy,
Republican chairman of Suffolk
County, New York, and a strong
Hanley-for Governor supporter.
In the letter 1t. Gov. Hanley said
he had been given definite as
surances he would be able to clean
up personal financial problems
within 80 days if he agreed to ac-
cept the senatorial nomination.
Up to that time he had been as
sured of the gubernatorial nomi-
nation. When the Republicans
met in State convention, Mr..
Hanley took the Senate nomi-
nation and Gov. Dewey reversed
his earlier decision not to seek a
third term.
Republicans have insisted there
was nothing sinister about the
letter. The Democrats had OBJ
tanned a copy of it. but Mr..
Hanley made it public himself.
Representative Walter A. Lynch,
the Democrat-Liberal nominee
for Governor, has been using the
letter as campaign weapon
against both Gov. Dewey and Mr..
Hanley. Mr.. Hanley is trying to
unseat Senator Lehman, Demo-
crat-Liberal, who defeated John
Foster Dulles for the unexpired
Wagner term last year.
Subpoenas Asked for.
The Hanley letter was brought
to the Gillette subcommittee by

Labor candidate for Governor.
