tree-lined fairways is in better
condition than it has been for
past Jacksonville Opens. The

lot.

Any early prospects of tearing
down dilapidated temporary
Government buildings have gone
glimmering with the present in
sistence on curtailing expendi-
lures.
The House Appropriations
Committee has trimmed the
General Services Administra-
tions' budget request for $40,-
100000 for leased space by 20
per cent. The figure the COM
mittee recommended is $32 mil
lion. This applies to rental. op-
Grafton, maintenance and repair
of space throughout the country.
The amount GSA now spends
for space in privately owned
buildings in the Washington
area is $4.1 million. A cut of
20 per cent in that figure would
leave GSA with no other course
than to move Government offices
from space in private buildings
into Federally owned structures.
Space is becoming available in
temporary buildings with the
elimination of emergency agen-
cies set up after the Korean war
began. The vacated space is due
to be filled by agencies now
housed in rented space.

ings commissioner in GSA, COM

CAA spokesmen were careful
to point out that while there will
be more planes north of Key
Bridge in the Washington area,
when coming to National Airport
for a landing, they will be de-
scending and not making so
much noise as on takeoffs.
Further, they argued, the new
Georgetown facility will create
a short approach to the airport.
Over the Georgetown area
pilots will be required to fly a
minimum of 1.340 feet as they
are directed to land by the radio
tower at the airport.
Officials said they anticipate a
substantial reduction in the use
of runway No. 81 at the airport
through use of the Georgetown

complained particularly of use
of runway No. 81 because of the

GrunewaId Admits
Union Paid S13,50O
By the Assoeioted Press

Henry w. Grunewald acknowl-
edged today he received $13,50O
from the AFL Brotherhood of
Carpenters in 1948 for an in
vestigation. but refused to tell
any details.
He said he had received $6,831
from the carpenters union in
l947, presumably in connection
with the same investigation.
TeStifying before a Ways and
Means subcommittee Investigate
ing tax frauds, Grunewald said
the matter was handled through
Lowell Mayberry, a former Bos-
ton attorney.
Mr.. Mayberry had been iden-
titled by Grunewald previously
as an attorney who employed
him in behalf of the United
Mine Workers Union in 1916 to
investigate the late Federal
Judge T. Alan Goldsborough,
who had fined John l.. Lewis
mine workers S3.5 million for
contempt of court. The miners,
then on strike, disregarded a

tees figure might be raised when
the bill gets to the Senate. There
is not much expectation that
this will be done, however.
The committee said in its re-
port that allowing the $32 mil
lion was with the understanding
that $40 million would be avail
able during the first quarter of
the coming fiscal year, SO million
during the second quarter and
81 million during each of the
final two quarters.
The committee also refused to
allow funds which were request
ed to improve the cleaning of
Government buildings.
Government Offices used to be
cleaned every day. Appropria- =
ton cuts, however, have reduced
the cleaning-other than waste
basket emptying, etc.-to about
once every three days.
1NCUuCSt DC11lCus
The Public Buildings Service
asked funds to increase the
cleaning to once every other
day. but was thrown for q loss.
The committee said it made
a moderate reduction in funds
for cleaning. And it made it
clear it wanted more cleaning
for less money.
When the Appropriations sub
committee. headed by Represent
ative Phillips. Republican, of
California. held hearings on the
GSA appropriation requests, the
cleaning question came in for
thorough airing.
Irving Schwartz, who operates
the Victory Cleaning Mainte-
nance Co.. in New York, had
been called in by Mr.. Phillips
to make a survey of the clean
ing of Government buildings
here and in New York. Mr.. Phil
lips told of Mr.. Schwartz re-
port. saying:
"Out of the total cost of some
thing like So million, he said
that on a contract basis these
buildings could be cleaned for
at least Is per cent less than
they are now, and could be
cleaned daily. or, at least five
days a week."
The upShot was that the COM
mittee said it expects Mr.. Reyn-
oldS to come back in January
with "a better and more econom-
ical estimate of the cost of clean
ing and operating buildings"
Below Private Industry.
Mr.. Reynolds said that on
overall costs-cleaning, opera
tions. Maintenance and repairs
I'VE are 2O.to 25 per cent below
private industry"
Perhaps we are inefficient in
cleaning" he said. I'VE intend
to find out" He said he has
asked the Building Owners and
Managers Association to make a
survey in Government buildings
in Washington and elsewhere.
Mr.. Schwartz company has
the contract for cleaning the
United Nations buildings in New
York. Mr.. Phillips did not give
the cleaning cost figure.

Around-the-CIock \
Sessions Considered
In Tide|ands Dispute
By J. A. O'Leoy

A hint that administration
leaders may set up cots in the
Senate cloakroomS and force op-
ponentS of the submerged lands
bill to talk around the clock, "
came today as the latest weapon
for bringing the controversial
measure to a vote.
Chairman Millikin of the Sem
ate Republican Conference Sug-
geSted continuous sessions may
be necessary shortly after Ma
jority Leader Taft had revealed
that consideration is being given
to invoking the cloture rule.
Cloture Votes Lacking.
The Ohio Senator quickly
added his own belief, however,
that he does not have the 64
votes required to apply cloture.
He estimated supporters of the
bill to recognize State owner
ship of oil-rich submerged coastal
lands are two or three votes shy
of the number needed.
Senator Taft conceded that a
continuous session is a possibil-
ity, but he does not think it will
be resorted to this week.
If cloture could be invoked
long sessions would not be neces-
Sary to guarantee a vote. Once
that rule is invoked each Sen
ator may talk for only one hour.
Since those seeking a vote would
not talk. the vote would come
within a few days.
The use, of cots in the Capitol
has been resorted to on rare oc-
casions when the leadership was
trying to wear down a deter
mined minority.
Quorum Assured.
This is the only way a con-
tinuouS session can be made
effective, because it insures the
presence Of a quorum on a mo-
ment's notice. If Senators go
home to sleep during a night
session, those who are holding
the floor to stave of a vote get
two or three hours rest by de-
manding a quorum call and then
relaxing while the absenteeS
journey to the Capitol.
Opponents of the bill con-
tinued to deny they are conduct
ing a 1ilibuster. But. whether
it is a fllibuSter or q campaign
to educate the people back home.
it has prevented action for
nearly three weeks.
