Eisenhower-Congress
Clash on Powers Seen

from both the Senate and House
appropriations committees be-
fore the Defense Department
closed down any commercial-type
activities.
Mr.. Eisenhower protested the
rider when he signed the appro-
Ipriations bill on July 13. In an
unusual message to Congress. he
said:
Congress has no right to con-
fer upon its =. committees the
power to veto executive action
or to prevent executive action
from becoming effective"
Calls 1t Unconstitutional
He added that Attorney Gen.
eral Brownell had advised him
that the rider constitutes an
unconstitutional invasion of the
province of the executive"
Despite the White House at
titude. the Defense Department
took recognition of the rider and
advised the Senate and House
committees on August 8 that it
intended to close the ropewalk
and 13 other plants which it con-
sidered to be in competition with
