crat of Rhode Island, chairman
of the Appropriations subcom-
mittee which handled the bill.
described the House action as a
"phony" cut. He said Congress
is obligated to provide the neces-
sary funds for Federal unemploy-
ment compensation and would
have to supply the money in a
supplemental appropriation later
on.
Mr.. Fogarty's committee had
trimmed SIS million from the
request, but the House in an
economy drive chopped off an
other million dollars.

per cent of its activities to the
field. A field Office established in
San Francisco four years ago
was cited by the House Appro-
priations Committee as being a
conspicuous success in providing
greater service to Federal work
erS and iustifying establishment
of two more field offices.
INSURANCE POLICY AID
Chairman Johnston of the SEN
ate Civil Service Committee has
sponsored a bill to save the life
insurance policies of IS 1000 pres
ent and former Federal workers
who hold such policies in bene-
fetal employe associations being
forced out of business by the
Federal Employe Life Insurance
Program.
Senator Johnston's bill would
authorize the Civil Service Com
mission to use funds from the
Federal Life Insurance Program
about 100000 for converting
these policies to Government
sponsorship. Although Congress
several years ago authorized the
csc to take over the policies,
the House and Senate Appro-
priations Committees have not
voted the funds to bring this
about.
Time is running out on the
policies, since August II is the
last day the csc has to take
them over If nothing is done,
most policies will lapse, since
most of the employee associations
can't hang on much longer.

OSLO, Norway, Mar. 80 (H0.-
A powerful Soviet military ma
chine close to NATO's northern
flank is supported by recently
built-up industrial areas which
would be of treemndous impor-
lance in event of war. authori-
tative Norwegian sources said
today.
The sources made information

north, opposite Norway's from

with recent Soviet threats OF
atomic destruction against this
country-if there is war. Nor

have 100 airbases, 1900 planes

divisions in the Kola Peninsula
and former Finnish Karelia
close to the Norwegian and Fin
nish borders.
Along with the military build
up, the Russians have indus
trialized the area and extended
their railroads to points yir-
tually on the border.

Pechenga Rivers closest to the
Norwegian border-could de-

liam rivers about IL million

Prior to World War II 10
small power plants delivered
about 100000 kilowatts to smaller
towns and industries. The
plants mostly had a capacity
up to 5000 kilowatts.
BY the time Russia's sixth
five-year plan is completed in
1860, the far north power
schemes will develop $4,000 kill
oWatts, from plants ranging up
to 10000 kilowatts.
More Industrial Growth
Normal civilian power con-
sumption in the area is easily
covered by the output from the
old power plants. All indications
are that the new power output
is earmarked for further in
dustrial developments in the far
north.
At CheropowtZ, on the Lenin-
rad-Vologda railroad. a new
steel mill has been built to proc
eSs ore from the Kola Peninsula.
Formerly the raw materials
from the north were sent south
for processing.
High priority extension Of the
railroad system in the area has
gone right alongside the indus
trial and military buildup.
The old Siberian rail-
road goes too far to the south.
There are couple of northern
branch lines. But a northern
parallel road seems to be of vital
Importance. The railroad is
completed to Vorkuta and Be-
rezovo, but 1t is likely too be
extended to Igarka, where it
will meet the railroad coming
up along the Yenisei River from

measure toward the House floor
Another showdown that de-
veloped yesterday may put Of
House debate until well after
the Easter recess.
Although the House Judiciary
Committee voted almost two
weeks ago in favor Of a bill along
lines recommended by the Eisen-
hover administration, 1t has not
yet formally sent the bill to the
House.
A majority report signed by
most Democrats and Republicans
on the committee has been ready
for several days. 1t and the
minority's views were to have
been presented by last Wednes-
day. Opponents Of the bill asked

May Action Seen
This means the bill and the
minority and majority state
ments will not be filed officially
in the House until next week
This technicality as well as the
absence of the printed reports
blocked Representative Boiling,
Democrat Of Missouri, from
pressing a move in the House
Rules Committee yesterday.
He had planned to secure a
committee vote on his request
of last week that a date be set
for a meeting to decide on a
date for hearings on a resolu-
ton to clear the civil rights bill
for House consideration.
Some hackers Of the bill
privately conceded that ever
under the most favorable cir
cumstances from now on a bill
probably could not reach the
House floor before May /. This
is on the optimistic assumption

est friends in CongreSs-Chair-
man Johnston of the Senate
Civil Service Committee.
The fact that Senator John
ston is sponsoring the measure
underlines the growing economy
trend in Congress, with the Fed
eral payroll the prime target.
Federal employee leaders are
fearful anything can happen"
in such a prevailing economy
climate.
The council took no official
action on the Johnston bill, re-
ferring it to its legislative COM
mittee for appropriate action.
The legislative group is headed
by Roy c. Hallbeck. legislative
director Of the National Fedora
ton Of Post Office Clerks.
The councils strategy appar-
emily will be strong appeal tc
Senator Johnston not to hold
Hearings on the bill. Federal en-
lploye leaders feel that the John
ston measure would seriously
disrupt the Federal service and
cause much confusion and cur
ltailment and elimination of es-
sential Government functions.
However. If Senator Johnston
goes ahead with his announced
plans of holding hearings. top
AFL Federal employee leaders pre-
dict the unions will strongly op-
pose it with all the resources at
their command.
They recall the Government S

along with an arbitrary 10 per
cent cut in jobs. caused con-
siderable disruption in many
bureaus.
Senator Johnston has declared
that his bill would not result in
the firing of any present Federal
workers. The reductions would
be achieved through ban on
agencies filling more than one
out OF every four personnel vac
ancies that occur, the South
Carolinian stresses. Furthermore
a reduction in the Federal pay
roll would increase the chances
for Government pay raises, Sen
ator Johnston says.
However, Federal employe
leaders are skeptical of the
argument that a reduction in
Federal jobs will appease con-
servatives in Congress to the
point where they would support
Government pay raises. A Fed
eral pay raise deserves to be dis
: cussed on its own merits, they

that the site picked was above

So the movie well was built
