PoIand's S Peace Plan
Ties Up U. n. With
| Extended Debate
BY the Associated Press

UNITED NATIONS, N. Y,
April 14-Debate on Poland'S
grab-bag peace proposal begged
down in the United Nations. to-
day with delegates of "a nations
waiting to express their views on
the many issues contained in it.
The 60-nation political COM
mittee. continuing its discussion
of the Polish item, had hoped
to wind up the debate by tomor-
row in order to finish the work
of this General Assembly session
by the end of the week.
Arguments on Details.
But so broad was the scope of
the Soviet-backed proposal-al-
ready rejected in all its parts in
past Assembly sessions-that it
threatened to get side
into long arguments on several
of it's details.
Already, Israel's delegate, La
Dor Minister Golda Myerson, has
brought up the recent anti-Se-
mitic campaign behind the Iron
Curtain and expressed praise for
its cessation and :-2udiation'
within the past few days.
The Arab spokeSmen, all on
the list to speak on the Polish
item, were repeatedly primed tc
launch once again into full as
sault on. the Semitic question.
Also threatening to lengther
the discussion was a reported
Western plan to introduce a
counter resolution voicing hope
for an armistice in Korea but
ignoring other parts of the
Polish proposal.
Poland's omnibus plan also
suggests old Communist designs
for disarmament, banning atom
and germ bombs, a Big-Five
peace pact and reputation OF
the North Atlantic Treaty Or
ganization.

Teapot Dome Scandal
Cited by Anderson
In Opposing Oil Bill
By Robert K. Wolsh

Senator Anderson, Democrat
of New Mexico, cited the Tea
pot Dome scandal today in urg-
ing Congress to let the Federal
Government maintain ownership
of oil-rich marginal submerged
lands.
oil" he fold the Senate in
debate on the measure, has a
peculiar way of getting around
the country and involving itself
in political appointments and
the lives of individuals.
Senate Action Urged.
The Senator. a former Secre-
tary of Agriculture in the Tru-
man administration, held the
floor as Republican leaders took
Stricter steps to wind up the
tidelandS debate which began
April /.
Senator Taft of Ohio, the Re-
publican floor leader, got an un-
expected assist from Senator
Morse, independent, of Oregon.
Senator Morse objected to a
request by the Internal Security
Subcommittee to meet this aft
ernoon while the Senate was in
session. He served notice he
would object to all such requests
because he believes the debate
should be heard by many more
Senators than has been the case
during the last two weeks.
Senator Taft, meanwhile, an
nounced the Senate would meet
an hour earlier and probably
hold several night sessions in a
drive to get a final vote this
week, so that other pressing
business can be taken up.
House Bill Similar.
The pending Senate bill would
give coastal States the title to
submerged lands within their
SeaWard three-mile limit or other
claimed historic boundaries. The
House two weeks ago passed a
somewhat similar bill which
however, specifically established
Federal ownership of the re-
mainder of the continental shelf
beyond the State limit.
Senator Anderson is the spon-
sor of a substitute bill to estab-
lish Federal ownership and ad-
ministration of the submerged
areas.

Witnesses approving the gen.
eral principle Of the bill, some
of whom were for it without
reservations, included officials
of the District Government,
leaders of various planning COM
missions in the area, the Wash
ington Board of Trade and the
A. B. & w. Transit Co.
Approval of the District Com
missioners was voiced by Brig.
Gen. Louis H. PrentisS, Engineer
Commissioner.
His principal suggestion was
to change the representation
from the District. Instead of
the bills proviso for two COM
mission members from Mary
land, two from Virginia and two
from the District of Columbia,
Representative Broyhill offered
to reduce these to one from each
of the three Jurisdictions.
Gen. Prentiss told the Subcom-
mittee that because of the popu-
lation of the District it should be
represented by two members,
with one each from Maryland
and Virginia.
Sees ID. c. Problem Doubled.
THE problems of the District, {"
the Engineer Commissioner told
the subcommittee, "are approxi-
mately twice those of Maryland
and Virginia"
Mr.. Broyhill sponsored also
several other amendments to his
measure one of which would ex-
tend the period for a report by
the commission to the President
and authorize the Chief Execu-
tive to continue the commission
further.
Chairman Spencer of the Pub
lie Utilities Commission approved
the Broyhill bill, saying there
was no conflict between the idea
of the powers of such a study
commission and those of the
Utilities Commission.
Among other witnesses ap-
proving the bill were:
Chairman Joseph D. Lehman
of the National Capital Planning
Commission, who submitted sew
eral clarifying amendments ac-
cepted by Mr.. Broyhill; John
Nolan, jr., director of the Ma
tional Capital Planning Com
mission, and William S. Cheat

counsel of the National Capital

one unidentified with appli-
cation of the program.
Whatever the cost in debt
service and whatever the ulti-
mate effect upon the economy
as a whole, the mortgage in
terest-rate rise has been
achieved and the Govern
ment's financial manipulations
now seem to be geared to keep
ing the cost of Government
borrowing at a relatively low
level and to encouraging in
vestment at stable terms once
again.
A spokesman for the Ma
tional Association of Home
Builders said this week he
recognized signs that the de-
tour being taken by the Treas.
ury Department and the Fed
eral Reserve Board has put
relief in sight from the long
mortgage drought"
This spokesman, John M.
Dickerman, executive vice
president of the builders trade
association, told a meeting of
the Washington Home Build
ers' Association that he be-
lieved an improved mortgage
outlook can be attributed di-
rectly to the recent easing
of the administrations hard
money policy"
"It is most gratifying that
administration leaders official
ly realize the need for correc-
tive action" he said.
''It indicates that the impor-
tance of our industry's $12-
billion annual contribution to
the national economy is rec
ognized."
George DeFranceaux, presi-
dent of Frederick w. Berens,
Inc, a Well-knoWn Washing
ton mortgage lender and bro
ker, told The Star before Mr..
Dickerman's address that he
believed the worm has
turned"
He said the Governments
easier money policy was bring
ing results that were already
clearly evident in increased in
vestment interest in ware
housed VA and FFIA mort
cages, and for new Az per
cent mortgage loans-still at
a discount but not quite so
high discount as before.
He said he believed that by
the beginning of the new year
FHA and VA mortgages might
be selling at par once again.
Il may be wrong but I'm
frankly optimistic about the
future" he said. "All the signs
point to increasing interest in
mortgages on the part of saw

do with the decision of the
Government to relax it's re-
strictive money policy"
Without doubt, optimism
seems to be justified on the
part of District area builders
and prospective home buyers
that mortgage money should
be easier to obtain at the Az
per cent VA and FILA rate.
But September's total of ap-
plications for VA financing in
the District area fell below
that for both July and August,
So it may be that the Admin
istration's new signals are still
a bit too faint for many lend
ers to decipher. or that they
have not yet had time to take
action in line with them.

away from the outright course
towards defiation that the
Board and the Treasury earlier
supported.
"These policies on the part
of Federal fiscal authorities
have a direct bearing on the
availability and price of mort
gage money" Mr.. Dickerman
said.
Recent reports from the
Federal Reserve Board and
private sources revealed the
very critical condition of the
mortgage market throughout
the country. The steady de-
cline in housing starts for most
of this year, plus a sharp de-
cline Of FILA new business,

panies and other lenders" he
said.
The more plentiful supply Of
money available for invest
ment at lower interest rates
as a result of application of the
Governments Softening pres
sures was clearly evidenced by
several circumstances.
/. The Treasury Department
set an interest rate on its new
est bond issue of 234 per cent
an eighth of one per cent
below the rate for its last is
sue in September.
2. Oversubscription of this
issue within a days time.
8. This weeks quotations in
excess of 104 on the Govern
ment's history making 3O-year
bond issue at 314 per cent.
These were the bonds issued
at the height of the Treas
ury Departments pro defla-
ton period which led to such
violent political and economic
repercussions. The interest rate
they carried was the highest
for many years.
The fact that they are SELL
ing above par now and thus
return an effective interest
rate below 314 per cent to to-
days buyers doesn't change
the fact that the Government
still must pay 314 per cent in
terest upon them and that
they thus stand as an en-
barrassing symbol of a costly
experiment.
