Congress
T led to Past,
Boiling Says

Representative Richard Boiling
Democrat, of Missouri, told the
Women's National Democratic
Club yesterday that the "82nd
Congress lacks courage" and is
"too welded to the past to take
care of the present. He spoke at
luncheon honoring the State of
Missouri at the club house at
1925 New Hampshire avenue, NV.
Speaking "out of my head and
my heart, Representative Boiling
called the bill for the relief of the
flood striken, now on President
Truman's desk, inadequate. The
bill authorizes money only for
straight loans to flood victims. He
talked angrily Of 16 copies OF the
lithograph by Thomas Hart Ben
ton, Homecoming to Cav Vale,
1857. sent by the artist to mem
bers of Congress-, and which the
Congressman found crushed in
trash cans. This act was typical
Of the 82nd Congress. he said.
Mr.. Benton's print depicts q flood
striken family. Representative
Boiling presented copy of the
print to Mrs. Truman, guest of
honor at the luncheon.
Pointing to imitation, the 35-
year-old former professor called
current price controls inadequate,
saying that the present low pro-
vides mot system of free enter
prise but a system to guarantee
profit to producers, professors,
manufacturers and retailers"
He said in matters of tax legis-
1ation Congress has acted to pro-
tect those who contribute to po-
litical campaigns. He declared
that the 82d Congress is a Taft
Byrd Congress-" and that the rec
ord will show it was not a Demo-
cratic Congress.
Congress is unwilling to face
the facts of the atom bomb, he
added. although in some cases 80
per cent of crucial industry is
concentrated in one area. He
stated that he believes Congress
has done reasonably we'll in for
eign affairs.
