which developed in the
House over two atomic energy
bills.
When the two houses met, lead
ers thought the dispute over the
housing bill was the only threat
to quick adjournment.
But the legislative wheels had
scarcely begun to turn when
Representative Cole. Republican
of New York, began to block

the House.
He objected to sending the
$2.1 billion last supplemental
appropriation bill back to con-
ference with the Senate and
also blocked a Senate bill to
create a new job of Federal
highway administrator.
House leaders promptly got the
appropriation bill around Mr.
Coles roadblock by adopting q
motion to suspend the rules. This
put the appropriation bill back
into conference for differences
which caused the Senate to re-
Iject the original conference re-
port last night. The main diff
ference is over a $35 million item
for purchase of strategic min

Urged for Navy
Leasing Of Huge New
Building Is Proposed
nv GEORGE REVERIDCE

Navy Secretary Thomas has
been urged by leading members
of Congress to give most SER
ious consideration" to leasing
space for the Navy in a huge
office building bus terminal pro-
posed to be built by private in
terests in downtown Washing
ton.
Secretary Thomas, it was
learned. has engaged in series
of conferences and letter ex-
changes about the project with
a congressional group headed by
Chairman Chavez of the Senate
Public Works Committee and
Chairman Buckley of the House
Public Works Committee.
Senator Chavez, in a letter to
Mr.. Thomas this week, said it
was urgent for you to come to
a decision regarding your future
plans for housing the Navy"
He added, pointedly:
II do not believe it is necessary
for me to re-emphasize that. in
my opinion, Congress would not
look with favor on any program
which involved bodily moving
your department out of Wash
ington."
500 Million Structure
The letter noted that the bus
terminal project, as a possible
permanent home for scattered
Navy employees here, was dis
cussed at a meeting last Friday
between Mr.. Thomas and Sen
ator Chavez, Mr.. Buckley and
Representative Flood, Democrat
of Pennsylvania. Representative
Broyhill, Republican of Virginia,
also has participated in previous
talks.
The project would house Office
space, a bus terminal and shop

bounded by Eighth, Tenth, D and

NEW YORK, July q (R1.-The

decks crowded with survivors Of
the fateful collision at sea with

were slightly higher.
The Coast Guard said approx

however, that there always was
the possibility of errors in the
confusion surrounding the mis-
hap and the figure did not neces-

Ambulances stood by to speed
the injured from the Stockholm
