folded up "a perfectly plain (HOO-
ver) blueprint" for saving $5,4O0,-
100000 and went home without TAX
ing action, says DR.. Robert l..
Johnson, president of Temple Uni
versity and chairman of the Citi-
zen's Committee on Reorganizing
the Government. Moreover, DR..
Johnson specifically accused Rep
resentative John E. Rankin, (Dem)
of Mississippi, of 'high-handed"

hold hearings. The Committee, he
said. would keep on fighting for

political ENHANCEMENT.
Well hope for quick service
from Congress next January.
