Leaders in Senate
Confident Of Votes
To Pass Seaway Bill

Senate leaders were confident
today they have the votes to
pass the st. Lawrence Seaway
bill by the end of next week.
One prominent Republican
thought the vote might come
Tuesday. but other Senators said
the opposition probably would
continue the debate for another
week.
Senator Butler. Republican. of
Maryland held the floor most of
the day yesterday for the oppo-
sition. He said American par
ticipation in the building of the
seaway is neither necessary nor
desired by the Canadian govern
ment.
Although the Marylander con-
sidered the entire project un-
wise for the United States. he
said he could not object to the
Canadian government building
the proposed 27-foot channel
with its own resources.
While the outlook for passage
of the Seaway bill in the Senate
is brighter than in former years,
the real test will come in the
House.

Most Congressman
lndorse Raise, but
See eS27,5OO Too High
By Robert K. Welsh

The proposed pay raise for
members Of Congress and Fed
eral judges will come up for
House action probably next
month. but may be scaled down
from the $27.5O0 figure recon-
mended for legislators. members
indicated today.
Comparatively little opposition
was voiced in congressional
ranks on. the general idea of a
salary raise beginning next year.
Members probably will have a
chance to stand UP and be
counted on the plan. Republi-
can Leader Halleck said he ex-
poets a salary measure to come
up within a few weeks and that
he will ask for a roll call on it.
Mr.. Halleck predicted Congress
would approve raise. although
perhaps not at the amount urged
yesterday by a special commits
sion. This would be the first
pay boost for Federal legislators
and jurists since 1916.
$27,5OO Figure Suggested.
The 18-member commission,
appointed by President Eisen-
hover, Vice President Nixon,
Speaker Martin and Chief JUS
tice Warren. suggested that
legislators be paid $27,500, an
increase of $12,500 over the $12.-
500 salary and $2,500 expense
allowance they now receive.
1t recommended $4,000 SAL
aries for the Vice President.
Speaker and Chief Justice, $780,
500 for Supreme Court associate
justices, $27.500 for Federal
District Court judges and some
what higher totals for judges Of
courts of appeals. Federal dis
trict court judges now get
$4,000.
The proposed increases for
judges seemed today to be ia
vored by most members of Con-
greSs. AS for the legislators
salaries, some members predict
ed that any salary ultimately
set would be nearer $4,000 or
$22. 500 than $27, 500.
Opposed by Burdick, Hoffman.
Republican Representatives
Burdick of North Dakota and
Hoffman of Michigan disagreed
with the commissions findings.
Mr.. Burdick insisted that most
members of Congress are "over-
paid"
Mr.. Hoffman declared that
higher pay would not attract
higher-grade candidates for
Congress. Appropriations Com
mittee Chairman Taber pre-
dicted that a pay raise would
be voted at this session of
Congress. But he doubted that
1.-The people back home would
go for as much as $27.500."

Statue Excovoted at Pompeii
Believed Work of Phidios

Other statues believed to have

beyond question to be his work.
Phidias. who lived from about
500 to 432 BIC. acquired his
fame only through estimates of
ancient writer's. their descrip-
tions of his statues and his in
fluence on all later sculpture.
One Of his greatest achieve
ments was Zeus. in the temple

Senator Ferguson, Republican.
Of Michigan. renewing today ef-
forts to find a compromise on
the controversial proposal to
limit treaty-making powers, said
he doubts legislation would ac-
complish what most proponents
want.
Senator Ferguson said in an
interview he believes most Of the

tor Bricker. Republican. of Ohio.
comes from people who don't
want any more Yaltas."
But Senator Ferguson said he
doubts any constitutional amend
ment could head off possible fu-
ture presidential agreements
such as those made by President
Roosevelt when he met during
World War II in Yalta with the
late Premier Stain and British
Prime Minister Churchill.
II don't believe you can cure
a situation such as that which
existed at Yalta." Senator Fer
guson said. That was a case
where the head of our Govern
ment acted without making
treaty or an executive agree
ment."
But Senator Ferguson said he
does not think a similar situa-
ton will arise in the future.
President Eisenhower, oppos-
ing the Bricker amendment in
its present form. was described
by an administration official yes
terday as prepared to take the
issue to the people if necessary.
But attempts are continuing
to find a compromise before a
Senate showdown, scheduled
within the next few weeks.
Senator Ferguson meets today
with Senate Majority Leader
Knowland and Attorney General
Brownell to try to frame revi-
sions Senator Bricker would ac-
cept.

Agreement on Roles
OF Military Services
Revised by Wilson

A revision of the five-year-old
agreement on roles and mis-
sions of the armed services
tightens the control of the Sec
retary of Defense over their
functions.
Secretary of Defense Wilson
last night announced the changes
in the basic document which
was hammered out in top-level
conferences at Key West, Fla.
and Newport. r. l.. in 1948.
The amendments were di-
rected by President Eisenhower
last April when he submitted a
reorganization plan to Congress
and were completed last Octo-
ber /.
Control Is Unified.
The new paper makes no
changes in the services roles
and missions but states fatty:
mo function in any part of
the Department Of Defense, or
in any of it's component agen-
cies. shall be performed inde-
pendent of the direction, author
ity and control of the Secretary
of Defense"
The old document contained
no such language.
Also in line with Gen. Eisen-
hower's orders. civilian control
over unified overseas commands
was strengthened.
Under the new arrangement
the defense chief. after consul
tation with the Joint Chiefs OF
Staff, designateS a military de-
partment to serve as executive
agent for a unified command.
Heretofore. the military chiefs
of the services have had such
responsibilities. There have been
instances where the civilian
secretaries were not informed
for weeks of actions taken within
the commands. Such a case
occurred when the Army ran
short of ammunition during the
Korean war.
Chain of Responsibility.
The channel of responsibility
and authority under the new
arrangement will unmistakably
be from the Chief Executive to
the Defense Secretary to the
designated civilian secretary Of
a military department. Gen.
Eisenhower has said.
1T will fix the responsibility
along a definite channel of ac-
countable civilian officials as in
tended by the National Security
Act" he added.
+ The agreement also contained
a section stating that the COM
mandant of the Marine Corps
has co-equal status with the
members of the Joint Chiefs on
matters which directly concern
the Marines. This is in line
with an act of Congress.
