termed the many recommended

Prentiss to Study Report.
Brig. Gen. Louis w. Prentiss,
Engineer Commissioner, who also
serves on the PUG, said he had
no comment to make until he
has a chance to study Mr.. Will
liams' findings.
The consultant, who recently
analyzed the traffic-tr prob
lem of Baltimore, poked into
apparently every Granny of the
local overall traffic and mass
transportation field.
Since Capital Transit Co.
represents by far the largest
transit operation here, Mr.. Will
llams dWelt at length on that
company's performance and re-
Sponsibilities. He had praise as
we'll as criticism for Capital
Transit, which in recent years
has received much more of the
latter.
On the very first page of his
report. Mr.. Williams observed
that the effectiveness of the
utilities commission perform
ance has been seriously i'm
paired by an apparent lack of
harmony between the community
interest and the interests of
the So-called 'Wolfson group
(the controlling stockholders
headed by Florida magnate
Louis Wolfson)."
No Fla rafi0n
Nowhere later in this report
did Mr.. Williams elaborate on
this statement, an obvious ref
erence to the expansive dividend
policies of the company under
Mr.. Wolfson.
But he mentioned the COM
pany's reduced service in recent
years, it's higher revenue per
mile in comparison with other
cities, and the slow speed of its
bus and streetcar service as a
deterrent to patronage.
On the other hand, Mr.. Will
liams offered some favorable
comments on Capital Transit eff
ficiency. The company's operat-
ing and engineering personnel
has repeatedly won awards. It's

Above everything else, I don't
want my situation to upset or
slow down the great work Of the
Commission on Inter-Govern-
mental Relations.
Former Law Dean.
DR.. Mapion, a former dean of
law at Notre Dame University,
has been one of the leading ad-
vocates of the Bricker treaty
curbing plan, which the Presi-
dent is against. And the an
nouncement by DR.. Manion that
he had been asked to resign by
Presidential Assistant Sherman
Adams brought an immediate re-
action from Midwest Republican
Senators.
Asked If it would affect har-
mony on the Republican side of
the aisle. Senator Bricker. Re-
publican. of Ohio. replied: ut
isn't likely to promote harmony,
period"
Close observers generally
agreed that the incident was
unlikely to change any votes in
the treaty showdown. which has
been put off probably until next
week. But it was certain to add
bitterness to G. o. P. cleavage
over the Bricker issue.
Senator Republican Leader
KnoWland said he had no in
formation as to what led up to
the Manion resignation. He said
he doubted that it would have
any effect one way or the other
on the outcome of the treaty
fight.
Others DeplOre Action.
Earlier, Senators Bricker, Jen-
ner. of Indiana. and Schoeppel,
of Kansas, all Republicans. had
taken the Senate floor to deplore
the departure of DR.. Manion
and to praise his work.
But other Republicans were
not ready to tie DR.. Manion's
departure entirely to his differ
ences with the administration
over the Bricker plan.
NSenator Aiken of Vermont
suggested he may have been
asked to leave because "he was
too conservative to be of value
to this administration.
Senator Hendrickson of New
Jersey also doubted DR.. Manion
was dropped only because he
made speeches for the Bricker
amendment.
Gets Letters of Protest.
Senator Carlson of Kansas.
who shares White House opposi-
ton to the Bricker plan. said he
has had many letters of protest
since DR.. Manion made a speech
for the amendment in Wichita
last week.
Senator Butler. Republican, of
Nebraska. a Bricker plan sup
porter. said he thinks Sherman
Adams has made a terrible mis-
take" Senator Martin. Repub-
lican of Pennsylvania, said he
hoped the request for DR..
Manion'S resignation was not
based on his support OF the
Bricker amendment. adding
that's going pretty strong"
Within an hour after Dr..
Manion announced his resigna-
ton, Senator Bricker was on his
feet calling the resignation a
startling announcement"
1t was most unfortunate, Sem
ator Bricker said. adding:

NEW YORK.-The indignation
Of David Lawrence about the 10
day filibuster against the adj
ministration's Atomic Energy
Control bill could be accepted
with greater credence were
it not for the record" Walter
White. NAACP executive secre-
tary, said here last week.
The Washington columnist had
denounced "a group OF senators
in the minority striving TO inn
pose their will upon the ma
jority" and charged "the accum-
ulated damage allegedly done by
Senator Mccarthy, in his brusque
handling of persons accused OF
having Communist connections,
is infinitestimal compared with
the damage done by the 'filibus-
ter not only to the public busi-
ness but to the prestige OF the
Senate itself, here and abroad
Failing TO recall that Mr.. Law
renee had ever been disturbed
over filibusters against civil
rights bills" Mr.. White expressed
the hope that the political COM
mentator will be equally indig-
nant against filibusters when the
next one aaginst civil rights leg
