The earlier bill, tabled after vio-
lent objections from Pepco, called
for a franchise fee based on per

nance, if approved, will require a
flat 100000 fee, which amounts to
about 2 per cent of the gross re-.

Truman FumbIes
Cue on McGroth
But Receivers
by the Assoeioisd Press

President Truman caused q
moment of confusion at his news
conference yesterday when he in
advertently read from his stage
directions.
Since the Presidents confer
ence almost always covers a wide
range Of subjects, he frequently is
given memoranda by his press
aides covering suggested replies.
Everything went smoothly yes
terday until he was asked about
a report that j. Howard McGrath
had Signified his readiness to be
relieved as Attorney General.
Mr.. Truman groped among his
papers and began reading from
one of them.
He read: In regard to all ques-
tions regarding continued drastic
action, including is McGrath re-
signing, the following is pro-
posed
At this point reporters began
to look puzzled. Presidential
aides exchanged glances. Then it
became apparent to the newsmen
that Mr.. Truman was reading
from "cue" notes supplied by an
aide.
With his eyes still on the paper,
the President went on to say he
was not going to answer that
question.

Senator johnson characterized
the general picture of transporta-

as an "intolerable situation"
He said the "big kitty" of q
dividend to transit stockholders
"lends a lot of weight" to the need

to determine the extent of its
power to investigate and it's power
to issue orders on the Capital

Already some lines have been

opinion said.
In a letter to Mr.. Flanagan,
Representative Crawford, Repub-
lican. of Michigan, pointed out
the company had reduced service,
reduced equipment, increased
fares, split its stock four ways
and declared a tremendous cash
dividend" and now sought an
other fare increase.
$40 Dividend on Old Basis. >
He asked the PUG chairman
specifically and categorically
what, if any, action you or any
body else on PUG have taken to
investigate CTC and all ramifica-
tons?
He noted the announced decla-
ration of $3.50 per share cash divi-
|dend on all the transit company
stock, and pointed out the decla-
ration came approximately six
weeks after the company divided
each share four ways, so that the
dividend amounted to $40 on the
old basis.
Mr.. Crawford said there was
something very strange about
this whole situation" and repeated
an earlier demand that the PUG
and other responsible bodies, in
Guiding the House and Senate Dis
trict Committees, conduct thor
ough investigation of the transit
company.
Information comes to me that
the Florida interests which pur-
chased CTC are milking the prop
perty at the expense of those citi-
zens of the Metropolitan Area who
are compelled to go about their
business by means of CTC trans
portation-a high percentage Of
them being Federal employees" he
wrote. IF this is true there is no
excuse for it; if this is not true q
thorough and fair investigation
would quell all rumors."
Fare Decision Unanimous.
Mr.. Flanagan replied imme-
diately and sent Mr.. Crawford a

He asked time to prepare an
adequate reply, but with ree',o"+

Main Pull From Peiping.
"The official appraisal here is
that the main pull upon Indian
opinion comes not from the Soviet
Union but from Communist China.
The Peiping regime has been
adroit in its contacts with the
Indians. It has played effectively
upon the Sympathies of the large
Chinese population all over South
east Asia.
1t has sent to India a Chinese
cultural mission, which has, on
the whole, been successful. :"
A Times dispatch from New
Delhi reproted the aid would
be in the form of an out

believed in India to include any
