Ancient Burial Ground
Found in Australia

SYDNEY.-A party from Mel
bourne University has found an
Icient burial grounds of Australian
aborigines, in the northern part of
South Australian State.
Five hundred skeletons found at
one point were estimated to be up
to 900 years old.
The skulls varied considerably
over the years. The most primi-
tive type apparently belonged to
a particularly ugly race, said P.
Staughton, an anthropologist and
a member of the group.
Staughton said many skulls
showed wounds of tribal battles,
others had been crushed by clubs
and stone tomahawks. He ex-
planned it was an aboriginal Gus
tom to bash the heads of the dead
at a burial to disperse the spirit.

Lobbying Described
As 81 Billion Industry
After House Survey
By Cecil HoIIond

chairman Buchanan OF q House
Investigating committee yester-
day described lobbying to in
fiuence Federal legislation as "a
billion dollar industry"
He predicted his committee will
recommend legislation to provide
for the American people more
complete picture of the ways in
which money is spent to influ-
ence Congress.
Mr.. Buchanan said he did not
want curbs on lobbying but would
like to see it carried on "in a
goldfish bowl"
Survey Made.
His views of the extent of lob
bying were based on a question
naire survey among corporations
He said the survey showed that
many more times as much money
actually was spent than had been
reported under the present lobby
ing registration law.
The present law, Mr.. Buchanan
emphasized. does not restrict
lobbying activities but merely re-
Quires reports as to the source
and disposition of funds used for
lobbying.
That Is as it should be-" he
added.
Recommendations for tighten
ing the lobbying act will be in
cluded in the committees final
report to be released soon.
S32 Million Spent.
Mr.. Buchanan reported that
the survey showed 152 corpora
tions, including some of the
country's largest. reported SPEND
ing more than $32 million in the
last three years in activities "re-
lating to attempts to influence
legislation. This was compared
with $750.000 the member of Con-
gress said was reported by the
same concerns in the registra-
ton Of its lobbyists.
Mr.. Buchanan said question:
naires were sent to 1872 of the
more than 100000 corporations,
big and small. in the country. Of
teh number, 174 made reply, few
made no reply at all and some
said the questions did not apply
to them and they did not engage
In lobbying activities.
One hundred twenty-five cor
porations reported expenditures
totaling $27 million for contribu-
tions to groups and foundations
which distribute pamphlets deal
ing with public issues. These ex-
penditures. the report pointed out,
were deducted as business ex-
penses.
Used for Advertising.
Most Of the hundreds of mil
lions" spent each year to influence
Congress, Mr.. Buchanan said, were
used for advertising and pam
phlets.
Il firmly believe that the busi-
ness Of influencing legislation is a
billion-dollar industry" he added.
The $32 million reported in re-
sponse to our letter contrasts
sharply with the $3.50, 900 reported
by these same corporations under
the Lobbying Act"
Questionnaires similar to those
sent to business corporations also
sent to farm and labor groups. Re-
ports covering their replies are
being prepared and will be released
soon.

Medical Society Here
Weighs Plan 10 Merge
Major Fund Drives
By jones 6. Deone

The District Medical Society
may take hand in the current
efforts to merge major fund drives
here:
The society's executive commit
tee will meet on the question on
June 10. It is interested particu-
larly in the status of half
dozen national health organiza-
tions which raise-and spend
funds here, a spokesman revealed.
Society members are active
leaders in the local chapters Of
these organizations. They also
conduct research projects and ad-
minister medical treatment which
the groups finance.
Units Urged to Merge.
The health organizations have
been urged to merge their fund
raising with that of the Com
munity Chest and other local
health, recreation and welfare
agencies. Several of them, in
stead, have indicated a prefer
ence for an area "health fund"
DR.. William Earl Clark, chair
man of the medical society's ex-
ecutive committee, asked a civic
committee pushing the one-drive
plan to defer action until the So
ciety can study the merits of the
proposal" His request was con-
veyed to a committee meeting at
the District Building Thursday by
DR.. Bernard j. Walsh, president
of the Washington Heart Asso-
citation, who proposed the health
drive" plan at the same meeting.
The single-drive planners have
set their next meeting for 10:30
am. Thursday in the Riggs Ma
tional Bank. They expect to re-
view progress of the merger move.
Along with its local efforts, the
group is seeking a policy change
on the part of the national health
organizations to permit the Dis
trict units to join in the project.
How Units Line Up.
To date, the health organiza-
tions have lined up publicly this
way: Washington Heart Associa-
ton and Arthritis and Rheuma-
tism Foundation-favor united
health fund; American Cancer
Society-nationally independent
but policy change under study;
National Foundation for Infantile
Paralysis, March OF Dimes)-na-
tionally independent: District So
ciety for Crippled Children-na-
tionally independent, but no puh-
lie statement yet; National Tuber-
culosis Observation-Disclosures
and not asked to merge by civic
group because it's campaign is con-
fined to Christmas Seals.
Another key organization, the
American Red Cross, now permits
joint fund-raising in industrial
plants under certain restrictions,
but local spokesmen have stated
it cannot participate in the pro-
posed overall drive here. Policies
will be reviewed nationally June
25 by the board Of governors in
Detroit.

0verpass Considered
By Senate Group

The projected $1,050,000 over
pass connecting National Airport
with Route ! Is under considera-
tion by Senate Appropriations
subcommittee, hearings made
public yesterday disclosed.
The House eliminated the prof =
ect, despite an urgent request
from the Civil Aeronautics Ad-
ministration.
CAA Administrator D. w. Rent
eel has informed the subcommit-
tee that Gov. Battle of Virginia
agreed recently to have the State
maintain the overpass across the
railroad tracks and Mount Ver-
non Boulevard, II the Govern
ment will build it.
The necessary right Of way was
acquired by the Government in
l941, and MIR. Rented urged fur
ther consideration Of the project
in view Of Virginia's willingness to
keep it up and the hazardous
traffic congestion in the present
underpass.
Mr.. Rented pointed out that
commercial vehicles are excluded
from the only other approach to
National Airport-Mount Vernon
boulevard-and that trucks pass
ing to and from the airport are
restricted by the low clearance
and narrow lanes of the under
pass. ...
Traffic in the transfer of pas
sengers. luggage, freight and mail
will be greatly increased in the
underpass, Mr.. Rented pointed
out. if Congress decides to au-
thorize another airport for Wash
ington in nearby Virginia.
