Comdr. Calvert. who is from

Plan Is Approved
BY ALEX r. PRESTON
Star STAFF Writer

A Senate Public Works SUBJ
committee today unanimously
gave favorable report to a bill
to block extension of the East
Front of the Capitol.
The Public Buildings and
Grounds subcommittee, headed
by Senator Mcnamara, Demo-
crat of Michigan, took its action
in closed session with four of
the six members present.
Senator Mcnamara said he
knew how all members of his
group feel on the issue and that
the action represents their
unanimous sentiment.
Chairman Chavez of the full
Public Works Committee, imme-
diately called a meeting of that
group for $50 am. tomorrow.
The legislation would reScind
congressional approval for the
extension of the East Front by
3212 feet at the cost of about
SOL million. The bill has the
bipartisan support of Repub-
lican Senators Smith and Case,
both of New Jersey, and Demo-
cratic Senators Clark of Penn
sylvania and Humphrey of
Minnesota.
Chavez Against Change
Chairman Chavez, Democrat
of New Mexico, today also gave
his support to the bill.
II have pretty good subcom-
mittees" he said, land I gen.
orally go along with them. I
would like to remember the
Capitol as I knew it back N

He said he started work here
as a Senate clerk in that year.
Senator Robertson Demo-
crat of Virginia, meanwhile
served notice he would attempt
to block the East Front extern
sion by offering an amendment
to the Second Supplemental
Appropriation Bill when it
comes to the floor tomorrow or
Friday.
He tried unSucceSsfully to
amend the bill yesterday at a
closed session of the Appropri-
atoms Committee before it re-
ported out the $2.8 billion
money package.

previously favored the extern

and said he now is opposed.

President Says

Talks in U. 5.
Sees No ADVANTAGE
If Summit PurIey
Is Very Lengthy
By EARL H. VOSS
Star stan Writer


Russian leaders would be
quite agreeable" to coming to
the United States for a summit
meeting if one is arranged,
President Eisenhower said to-
day.
On two occasions he avoided
saying specifically that WASH
ington was being considered as
a site. Instead he used this
country" and 1.-THE United
States somewhere" after ques-
TONERS had asked about pos
sibilities for a Washington
meeting.
If the top-level conference
were short, the President SAID
there would not be great things
to gain by holding it in the
United States. But if it APP
peared the meeting would take
awhile" he said he would
"have to stay here"
Denies Having FavOrite
In response to a later ques-
ton he denied any intention
Of favoring a United States
site only if the conference is
long. In his position, he ex-
planned, if the conference were
long it would be much "pre-
ferable" to be in the United
States somewhere, because
communications are better, and
signatures would be easier to
affix.
Mr.. Eisenhower said he had
not even though in terms Of
where the conference should be,
however, until the Soviet
leaders offer. The subject is
so important" he commented
that Il frankly don't care
where the meeting is held.
The tone of his remarks
today indicated he expects a
summit meeting to be held
eventually.
Backs Dulles Stand
But he fully supported
Secretary of State Dulles re-
lection yesterday of the Soviet
conditions for holding a pre-
summit foreign ministers meet
ing.
He said he had read every
word" of Secretary Dulles press
conference. and found he re-
f1ected my own view"
I'VE had a very long con-
ference before he went to that
press conference" the President
said.
He did not remember the
Secretary's use of the word
fraud" in criticizing Russia's
proposal. but interpreted Mr..
Dulles comments as not meant
to close the door"
1--WE will never close the
door," Mr.. Eisenhower said, re-
calling he has assured the
world time and time again he
is perfectly ready" to do any,
thing to advance the cause Of
peace if there is any avenue.
