Until Next Wednesday
By Don S. Worren

The Senate District Committee
today considered bills for granting
limited home rule to Washington
but deferred action to permit
more study.
After considerable debate, the
lcommittee agreed to meet agar
lat 10 am. next Wednesday. Il
the committee is not ready to vote
then, it has agreed it will decide
on a time when q vote is to be
taken.
officials explained that this
arrangement is subject to change
by majority vote at next weeks
meeting.
Pending before the committee
are two competing bills. One is
the Kefauver-Taft bill. which is
co-sponsored by a dozen members
Of the Senate.
Case Bill a Substitute.
A substitute bill has been offered
by Senator Case, Republican, of
South Dakota calling for a much
more limited form of ''home rule. "
Recent discussions have indi-
Gated the vote on the Kefauver-
Taft bill, if taken now, would be
very close. Some have doubts
that it could be reported out by
the committee. .--
Senator Kefauver, Democrat, OF
Tennessee, today gave his col
leagues a half hour outline Of his
bill, which calls for a council of

|of about II per cent and had
been decreasing during the last
few years. .-t
Chairman Thomas, Democrat,
of Texas declared such a great
turnover was a waste of the tax
payers money, since considerable
time and funds were spent train
ling employees. He said they are
leaving before the Government
fully utilizes their abilities.
Lawson Meyer. executive direc-
tor of the commission, declared
that one reason for the high
turnover is the numerous resigna-
tions of Federal employees to take
higher paying jobs in private in
dustry. He said there was ter
rife recruitment competition be-
tween Government and industry
in a tight labor market, resulting
in the Government losing many
employees.
This situation recently was used
as one Of the main arguments by
Federal employe groups in favor of
a Government pay raise. The en-
ploye groups argued that a Fed
eral pay increase would be far
less costly to Government than
the loss of key personnel who take
higher paying jobs in industry.

Proposals 10 License
Bottle Clubs AssaiIed
By Restaurant Group

The Restaurant Beverage As
sociation of Washington yester.
day criticized a pending legislative
proposal to license bottle clubs as
a real danger to the legalized
industry"
This view was voiced by Elmer
F. Richter, executive secretary Of
the association in a telegram, to
the House District Committee,
now considering the proposal.
Mr.. Richter asked for open hear
ings to learn the views Of all
interested parties.
The proviso to license bottle
clubs is pending in the omnibus
bill developed by the Davis SUBJ
committee to tighten law enforce
ment in many particulars.
The District Committee con-
sidered the big bill at an open
hearing Monday and will resume
study Of 1t again soon.
Representative Davis, Democrat,
of Georgia. chairman Of the
crime subcommittee. said he also
had received a telegram from Mr..
Richter in his capacity as an Of
fetal of the Southwest Citizens
Association. This group. accord
ing to Mr.. Richter, also opposes
the plan to license bottle clubs
and place them under the Alco-
holic Beverage Control Board.
The licensing provision was
adopted by the Davis subcom-
mittee as a substitute for the
original subcommittee section of
the bill, which would have branded
bottle clubs as a nuisance and
authorize their closing.

Macarthur Is Quoted
As Terrning Formosa
Important as France
By GEORGE Beveridqe

Representative Dorm, Democrat,
of South Carolina today quoted
Gen. Macarthur as saying For
mosa is just as important IF
not more so," than France to the
security of the United States and
United Nations interests.
Mr.. Dorm, who returned yester-
day from a two-week trip to Korea
and Japan during which he said
he had a Commute conference
with Gen. Macarthur, also:
i. Attacked the dismissal of
Gen. Macarthur as Far Eastern
commander as ''the greatest blow
to our fight against Communism
in modern history" He said to
the people Of the Far East the
White House move will be just
as much q blow as the fall Of
China" to the Reds.
Says Men at Front Agree.
2. Told reporters that Gen. Mac
Athur's demands to use Chinese
Nationalist forces and to have the
right to bomb Red concentrations
in Manchuria reflect opinions OF
his troops right down to the men
in the line in Korea" -
8. Said he was told by ''high in
telligence officers" in Japan that
they did not believe Russia has
troop concentrations in Manchu-
ria, but that there are sizeable
Russian forces in Siberia.
Gen. Macarthur got very en-
phatic about Formosa," Mr.. Dorm
declared. rHe said 1t is the key to
United States defenses in the Pa
cific. And to the defenses and
security of the United States and
United Nations interests, he said
1t is just as important. if not more
so, than France in Europe" i
At the same time, however. Mr..
Dorm said the deposed commander
denied State Department argu-
ments that Chinese Nationalist
forces are needed to defend For
moSa.
Nationalists Put at 100000.
"He said the Air Force and the
Navy could do that" Mr.. Dorm
declared. He added that Gen. Mac
Arthur estimated the size of the
Chinese Nationalist forces at 500,-
600.
Asked if he thought admins
tration policies in the Far East
were arrived at in order to pull
British chestnuts out of the fire, y
Mr.. Dorm said Gen. Macarthur
expressed that opinion. He felt
the British leadership thought
more of Europe than the world
situation and that the British
government is not going all out
against communism.
Mr.. Dorm also said he saw no
evidence of any "feud" between
Gen. Macarthur and 1t. Gen.
Matthew B. Ridgway, named to-
day to succeed Gen. Macarthur. !
He said Gen. Macarthur praised
Gen. Ridgway as "or1e of the best
field commanders he had ever
seen and thought he should bel
given four stars q 2
Tactical Situation Called Good.
In conference with Gen. Ridg-
way in Korea, Mr.. Dorm said, he
was told "the tactical situation is
very good and that he (Gen. Ridg- |
way) could hold the peninsula
against anything the Red Chinese
throw at him"
Mr.. Dorm said he also asked Gen.
Macarthur point blank" if he
thought Russia would enter the
war, and that the general said he
didn't think so.
Mr.. Dorm said Gen. Macarthur
stressed that I'VE think too much
in terms Of Europe and Asia"
The general, he said. feels that
the entire area should be thought
of "as Eurasia and that if you
lose the Far East you lose Europe"
