Labor Pact Barred

The Washington Suburban
Sanitary Commission, facing a
scheduled strike vote Saturday
by some of its employees, says it
has no authority to negotiate
an agreement with a labor union.
A strike vote has been called
by Local 7, Government and
Civic Employees Organizing
Committee (CIO) in a dispute
over a union request for recog-
milton to represent some 500

Speaker Martin said today
that congressional leaders must
move calmly and far-sightedly
in adopting any of the numerous
proposals for increasing security
Of legislators and visitors.
He emphasized that some pro-
tective measures already have
been taken and that he will dis
cuss others to be submitted to
him later today at a conference
with Chief Robert v. Murray
of the Metropolitan Police, Capt.
William j. Broderick of the Cap
itol Police and 1t. Carl Schamp,
Metropolitan Police officer as
signed to the House. Those three
form a subcommittee designated
at a meeting of high level House
and Senate leaders after the
gunf1re attack that wounded five
House members last Monday.
Mr.. Martin told reporters he
believes Congress should move
cautiously lest it set up some
devices or restrictions which I'LL
timately would prove impractical
as safeguards or unduly incon-
venient or unfair to members
and the general public. He ex-
planned that he was not refer

many suggestions offered thus
far. No decisions have been
reached on them. he said.
The speaker announced two
new moves today. Tourist groups
conducted by regular guides will
be readmitted to the House
galleries. Mr.. Martin said. Such
conducted tours. he added, are
well supervised by the guides as
weE as by police.
Number All Tickets.
The second move will be to
number all tickets issued from
now on by House members for
visitors to the galleries. Mr..
Martin said this would provide
further check on the issuance
of such admission cards because
a central record could be kept
to show the amount of num-
bered cards distributed to each
member.
He urged the individual men,
berS to keep a record of their
own. showing the name and adj
dress of each person to whom a
numbered card was given.
While Mr.. Martin refused to
give his personal views on any
of the specific security devices
which have been suggested. he
indicated that he still has to be

NBA Plans Stronger
Title Defense Rule

The National Boxing Associa-
ton may put teeth in its rule
requiring champions to defend
titles against logical contenders
every six months.
The rule is on the books now
but has not been rigidly enforced.
Andrew G.. Putka, president of
the MIA, hopes to have that
changed when the organization
holds it's 35th annual convention
late this month in Cleveland.
Putka wants a rule adapted to
force champions to defend
against available contenders or
lose their titles. The time inter-
val would be six months from
the date of the last title defense
to the date of the next one. The
mere signing of a contract for
the contest would not count and
no extensions would be granted,
if Putka has his way.
Putka conceded this might re-
suit in a number of dual cham
pionships, but he didn't seem to
think that would be too bad.
"We had them in the past" he
said, land such MIA champions
as Tony Yale, Billy Conn. Sammy
Angott and as far back as Make
Rosenbloom came out on top and
justified MIA judgment"
