Butler 10 See Bridges
For Peace Cross Funds

Senator Butler, Republican, of
Maryland. in another effort to
get Federal funds to start con-
struction of flood control work
at Peace Cross. Bladensburg,
plans to confer soon with Chair
man Bridges of the Senate Ap-
preparations Committee.
Federal money. needed to re-
lease Maryland's authorized $4.2
million for the purpose. has been
knocked out of two different ap-
preparations bills so far.
Senator Butler said he will ask
Senator Bridges if it would be
possible to use funds earmarked
for planning" in the Civil Func-
tions supply bill for "construc-
ton" at Peace Cross.
The lawmaker said he opposes
the Maryland Governors plan
to raise the level of roads near

Drive for Democrats
And Independents fol
Eisenhower Begins

Citizens for Eisenhower con-
gressional committees, working
in the individual States to elect
Republicans in the congressional
elections next year, are the OBJ
jectives of a drive to rally the
Independents and Democrats
who like Ike" now getting un-
derway.
James L. Murphy, young Of
ficial of a San Francisco export
import company, has undertak-
en- the job of getting the organ
ization going. Some two million
Citizens for Eisenhower worked
hard for the election of the
President in 1852. Mr.. Murphy
will seek to line these workers
up for the election Of Repub-
lican 84th Congress.
The Citizens for Eisenhower
drive will be conducted inde-
pendently, but will work wher-
ever it can in conjunction with
the Republican National Com
mittee. the Republican Sena-
torial Committee. and the Re-
publican Congressional Commit
tee.
Mr.. Murphy's tactics grow
from a study of last November's
election results. Gen. Eisenhower
carried 297 Congressional dis
tricts, but only 221 Republican:
won seats in the House.
Mr.. Murphy figures that Gen
Eisenhower's name should be in
volved in individual Congress
sional elections next year, giving
the G. o. P. a chance to say that
vote for the Republican candi-
dates for the House is a vote fol
Gen. Eisenhower.
In this way. Mr.. Murphy hopes
Republicans can increase theil
House strength and reverse the
usual trend of the Presidents
party losing strength in off-yeal
balloting.

Committee Restores
Lynn S Automobile in
Appropriation Bill

The Senate Appropriations
Committee has restored to
David Lynn, Architect of the
Capitol, the right to an auto
mobile, which the House tried
to deny him.
Reporting the legislative ap-
preparation bill to the Senate,
its appropriations unit struck
language inserted by the House
which would have prevented
Mr.. Lynn not only from buying
a new car, but from using the
Government one he now has.
The bill, now ready for Sem
ate action, carries a new item
Of $4,000 to plan the new
Senate Office Building, which
has been delayed for years.
The site was purchased years
ago Immediately east of the
present Senate Office Building,
but construction was blocked by
economy advocates. The place
now is used as parking lot.
The salaries of Senate legis-
lative employees would be subject
of a new study by a special
committee to learn whether they
are in line with employees of
the House and other Govern
ment workers doing comparable
work.
The measure carries House
approved funds for improvement
of terraces around the Capitol
Building, general repairs to
buildings on Capitol Hill and
continued major alterations to
the Capitol power plant.
The bill, containing funds for
the entire legislative establish
ment and for Federal courts, is
expected to be acted on soon by
the Senate. 1t then would go
to conference with the House
for ironing out any differences
between the two versions.

For many years / had a ling
ering desire TO see Washington,
the capital, and the law makers,
and for that reason l added it TO
my Canadian tour. After having
motored thousand miles, fin
ally arrived on capitol hill.
| had no trouble in locating
the building as its dome stood
out prominently above all other
buildings. The guard on duty di-
rected me TO a parking place dl-
reetly in front of the main build

guide to show the interior,
After paying a small fee. she
began by showing us the statues
and paintings III the rotunda.
Some of the statues were being
relocated. but the most outstand-
ing painting was the one on the
ceiling, which the painter had to
do lying on his back.
We went up another stairway
and thru a hall to the former
Supreme Court room and to the
Senate chamber. Next was the
presidents room where we learn
ed he had fired" his cabinet,
and he, himself, had gone to
Colorado to fish, swim and even
to build dams.
We were disappointed of course,
but it was a blessing in disguise;
had he been there we could not
have gone thru his room. 1t was
deliberately furnished with chan
delier of gold and the gorgeous
mirrors on the walls were franz
ed with gold.
The guide then led us to a
corridor t h a extended the
entire length of the building-the
longest in the world. Off from
this was the Statuary hall which
contains the statues of senator's
of every state Rose from Ar
kansas. We were then shown the
house chamber which was sys-
tematically and artistically ar
ranged. There were many small
er rooms we were not shown in
to.
Finally we came to the hall OF
art where the walls were decorat-
ed with panels on both sides, and
no two alike, which took years
