President Eisenhower will soon
ask the Senate to confirm more
than 130 appointments, includ-
ing those Of Earl Warren as
Chief Justice of the United
States and James p. Mitchell as
Secretary of, Labor.
There is no evidence Of serious
opposition to most of these nom
nations. made while the Senate
was In recess.
But at least one, that Of Rob-
ert E. Lee to be q member Of
the Federal Communications
Commission, is certain to receive
searching study by the Senate
Commerce Committee.
Two Challenge Firings.
Also on the list Of presidential
nominations due soon after Con-
gresS reconveneS today will be
three members of the War
Claims Commission, now serving
under recess appointments. Two
former commissioners, both
Democrats fired by Gen. Eisen-
hover. are challenging the Pres
ident's authority to replace
them.
No obstacle is seen to quick
Senate approval of Chief Justice
Warren. former Republican Gov
ernor of California. He was given
a recess appointment to the Ma
tion's top judicial post following
the death last fall of Fred M.
VinSon.
Nor is there any evidence of
serious opposition to such Off

Salary Study Group
Aqrees on Raise but
How Much Is Not Set

A special commission, about to
vote almost unanimously to rec
ommend higher salaries for
members of Congress and Fed
eral judges. debated today
whether to suggest a uniform
pay increase or scale Of in
crease $4,000 and up.
The group also studied an
analysis of financial question:
naires returned by many legis-
latorS and jurists. The re-
plies received since the forms
were sent out several weeks
ago give information on such
things as earning power of
those public officials before they
entered Government service and
income sources they have. in ad-
dition to present salaries.
Sessions Continuing.
Planning to submit its report
January IS to President Eisen-
hover, Vice President Nixon.
Speaker Martin and Chief JUS
tice Warren, the commission met
all day yesterday and expect to
continue its closed sessions today
and tomorrow.
There was every sign today
that the commission will vote
overwhelmingly to recommend
pay increases. Such vote prob
ably will be taken before the
end of the current closed ses-
sions.
1t will not be announced be-
fore the formal report is ap-
proved January 13 or IA. mem
bers indicated. This report will
be drafted by a subcommittee.
Uncertainty Is Seen.
There was some uncertainty
the report would recommend a
fiat increase. such as $4,000,
for every Federal Judge as well
as for members of Congress. The
$4,000 figure was frequently
mentioned by commission men,
bers and proposed by many wit
nesses at the open hearings. 1t
also was the across-the-board
increase proposed in a judicial
and legislative pay bill spon-
sored by Senator McCaTran,
Democrat, of Nevada. and re-
ported out last summer by the
Senate Judiciary Committee.
It is believed unlikely that
the commission will recommend
an Increase of more than S10,-
600 over the present $500
year received by Senate and
House members, who also have
a $4,000 expense allowance.
Whether Congress during this
election year would vote for any
increase, even though it would
not take effect until the next
Congress-, has become a mat
ter of considerable speculation
at the Capitol.

but that no advice was asked
and none given.
The Presidents meeting with
leaders of both parties was con-
fined to foreign affairs and ma
tional defense. 1t therefore did
not touch on the many domestic
issues that will provide the real
battle-ground of the session.
Specific Plans Later.
Congressional leaders indi-
Gated they expect no surprises
on foreign policy or defense in
the Presidents message, to be
delivered to a joint session
of the House and Senate
tomorrow. They expect it
will be mainly an outline of
the general objectives of the
administration. with specific
proposals coming later in sep
arate messages.
Inc pudget, around which
much of the controversy of the
session will revolve, is not due for
two weeks.
If the administration pushes
it's request to raise the national
debt ceiling. which was side
tracked by the Senate Finance
Committee last summer, it will
find Senator Byrd, Democrat. of
Virginia, still adamant against
the bill.
The Virginia Senator today
made public figures he said show
the request is less urgent now
than when the Senate blocked
the bill last July.
George Less Positive.
Another prominent Democrat
on the Finance Committee, Sem
ator George. of Georgia. was less
positive. He said: "I don't want
to increase the debt limit, but
if it is necessary I would go
along with a reasonable amount.
But ! want to see all the facts
before a final commitment.
Another issue that may arise
early is whether the Social Sc
curity tax increase which took
effect lat week should be can
celled. There is division in both
parties on this question, as there
will be on a number of problems
this year.
For example, Senator Byrd
said he is against stopping this
increase, because it would place
a new burden on the Treasury.
Senator George said he favors
resembling the increase for at
least two years on the ground
that the Social. Security reserve
fund is already adequate. The
payroll tax went up last Friday
from 1l2 to 2 per cent each on
employer and employe. Senator
George said it ought to be can
celled in order to make effective
the reduction in individual in
come tax, which also took effect
last Friday. For wage earners
in the lower brackets the Social
Security increase nullifies the
cut in income tax.
Democrat Comment Terse.
Democratic leaders who were
invited to the White House yes
terday carefully refrained from
revealing any of the detailed dis
cussion. But their terse COM
ments indicated that the Presi-
dent and his cabinet members
merely outlined the general OBJ
jectives of the administration to
achieve peace and security, and
that there was no real discussion
of specific problems and reme-
dies.
The White House announced
that after the President made an
opening statement, the detailed
briefing on current conditions
around the world was given by
Secretary of State Dulles, De-
tense Secretary Wilson and Mu-
tual Aid Director Stassen.
Senator Russell, of Georgia.

Of a talking point against the

And the Pentagon plans little,

plans to ask for a military pay
raise. However. If Congress sees
fit to grant such a raise there
will be no objections.
Program Review Urged.
The fact that President Eisen-
lower is anxious to get his mil
itary program. passed substan-
tally in present form-and avoid
the hot controversy over it like
the one last year--was seen in a
White House invitation to key
legislators to go over the details
in advance.

men Ferguson and Wigglesworth
