 Here is what he faces.
 On one side, McGrath was elected to the Senate when he exposed, berated, and campaigned against the Governor Vanderbilt wire-tap- ping scandal. The.

 More recently he has defended the Justice Department for not prosecuting the Amerasia case be- cause the evidence was obtained by illegal wire tapping and illegal search.
 On the other side, McGrath finds that a friend and former Senate colleague was chairman of the com mittee that arranged for tapping the telephone of Howard Hughes, head of Trans World Airline, at a time when that Brewster of Maine-was busy as a bird dog

WASHINGTON, June 27 = R - The House voted overwhelmingly today to extend the draft law for another year and give President Truman new power to order the National Guard and all reserves to immediate active duty.
 The vote was 314 to IA.

 The bill contains no restrictions such as the Senate and the House previously had voted. The com- promise was reached quickly this morning and originally was sched- uled for House consideration Thurs day.
 It keeps the present draft law alive for another year and gives the President authority he does not now have to put the National Guard and the Reserves on active duty.
