appear TO be desirable, put
ting them into effect by ex-
ecutive order would be more
preferable than enacting
them by legislation. A great
deal more leeway for any
changes necessary In the
public interest is possible un-
der executive action. / have,
however. asked the director
OF the Bureau Of the Budget
TO send you q report on the
legislation that you inclosed
with your letter."
Senator O'Mahoney is con-
cerned, too. over the decline
in the coal industry in this
country, due to importation
OF large quantities Of residual
oil. This, he says, has caused
widespread unemployment in
coal producing areas of the
country. Furthermore, he
points out. If war should
come, We would not have
time to revive the oil indus
try. The decline in the oil
industry, too, is apparent in
the fact there is today a
domestic productive capacity
OF approximately 8 million
barrels per day for which
there is no market.
President Eisenhower here
tofore has sought to achieve
a better balance in oil pro-
duction and importation
through voluntary restric-
tons or quotas by the oil
concerns producing and inn
porting foreign oil. It Just has
not worked out. Hence, his
present breakdown by means
OF Federal controls. In his
proclamation Of controls, the
President indicated he would
watch carefully to see If the
reduction in imports were
followed by price increases
for fuel in this country. His
purpose is to see that domes- +,
TIC consumers do not suffer
from the new situation.
VIII Seek Action
Senator O'Mahoney and
the supporters of his bill to
deal with oil and coal discoy.
cry and production intend
to press for action. A similar
measure has been introduced
IN the House. He does not be-
lieve the new plan of Federal
controls will suffice or be AIDE.
quate in the long run. Fur
ther, he believes that Con-
gress, and not the Executive.
should determine the policies
to be applied in connection
with the oil and coal indus
tries. Indeed. he said: THE
delegation Of power, legis-
lative power, by Congress and
belonging to Congress, to the
Executive, is running wild"
Another argument made by
Senator OMahoney in sup
port of action now to halt
excessive importations of oil
and petroleum products is
that the Nation needs tax
revenues which it is not now
receiving. The oil bill, how
ever. may meet resistance
from sections of the country
which have been relying on
cheap residual oil and other
petroleum products - New
England in particular.

THE POLITICAL MILL
Berlin and U.S.. CooI-OH OUTPUT
By GOULD LINCOLN

AS the crisis over Berlin
intensifies and the chance Of
war In other areas Of the
world increases. the impor-
lance of American oil and
coal rises In direct. ratio.
National defense requires oil
in vast quantities, and so does
national defense's right arm
American industry. The
record Of recent years has
seen domestic production Of
fuel oil hampered by growing
importations from abroad,
which in 1858 reached the
staggering level Of 1870, 900
million barrels a day. In 1855,
the imports amounted to $751;,
900 barrels a day. In other
words, the imports increased
to more than half-a- million
barrels more in every "a
hours than three years
earlier.
Senator Joseph c. O'Mah-
oney. wyoming Democrat,
has taken the lead in bring
ing this situation to the
attention of President Eisen-
hover. And the President on
March 10 ordered that i'm
ports Of crude oil and other
foreign petroleum products
be curtailed under manda-
tory Federal controls. His
action. which also was urged
by the domestic coal and oil
industries, is expected to cut
imports by about Is per cent
east Of the Rocky Mountains.
Sponsors OIL Coal Bill
In the opinion Of the Wyo-
ming Senator. the President
has taken a step in the right
direction, a step vitality
needed. But also Senator
OMahoney believes that the
bill he and other Senators
from oil and coal producing
States have sponsored-a bill
to encourage DEVELOPMENT
and production of oil and
coal reserves in the United
States and also to deal with
the question Of imports from
abroad-is necessary for the
long pull. He Is gratified that
the President has acted to
impose mandatory Govern
ment controls over these i'm
ports, but he is fearful that
injunctions may be obtained
in Federal courts by Ameri-
can oil interests engaged in
the production and importa-
ton of foreign oil which could
tie up the quotas imposed I'M
der the Presidents new order.
Further, he believes that leg
islation by Congress dealing
with this problem is the wise
and essential way of dealing
with oil imports.
President Eisenhower has
taken a different view in the
past. as shown in a letter
he wrote Senator O'Mahoney
on March 3. In that letter
the Chief Executive said he
was studying a report of the
Director of Civil Defense and
Defense Mobilization on the
oil import problem. But he
added: 1T does seem to me
that If mandatory controls

urged, ought to reverse itself accord
ingly. Otherwise, appropriate corrective
action should come from Congress or
the courts.

Farms is now buying not
applied for District permits?
These are the questions we
should ask our health au-
thorities.
The District Code. which
the diaries call outmoded,
provides specifications for
clean, airy barns, clean,
healthy cows. barns and milk
houses designed for easy
maintenance Of cleanliness.
No housewife needs to be told
how much harder 1t is to pre-
pare clean food in a filthy hut
with a dirt floor than in a
clean, modern kitchen. Does
not the same hold true for
dairy farms? Do we want to
abandon the modern dairy
farms that represent years Of
progressive effort-and that
supply more than enough top
quality milk for all our
needs-in favor Of farms
much less well equipped to
produce the kind Of milk we
want?
With all these safeguards 1t
is difficult to maintain daily
the standards that have been
set. If the standards are low
cred. II inspection is relaxed,
II premiums for high-quality
milk are abolished. what in
centive will the farmers have
to continue spending the ex-
ira time and money neces-
sary to keep our milk supply
what 1t has been? The prob
lem affects only suburban
Maryland now. but the big
diaries have promised to
carry the fight on to WASH
ington next. Do we want
these standards lowered just
to make more profit for the
dairieS? These are the ques-
tons each housewife should
ask herself. In the meantime.
those who live in Maryland
should ask whether they
should continue paying pre-
MUM prices for milk which is
no longer Of premium quality.
Barbara MOuItOn, M. ID.
x
If the quality Of the costly
radio and newspaper ads,
paid for by the poor" farm
ers through the Maryland
and Virginia Milk Producers
Association, is any indication
of the quality Of their milk
then it's easy to see why peo-
pie will probably end up
drinking imported milk or
even dry milk.
I cannot argue about guam
tity-only I'm glad I can
turn my radio of!
Incidentally. why not give
this radio and newspaper sd
money back to the poor"
farmer to live on?
Robert T. Berth.
I'm just as eager as the
next housewife to save money
on my food bill. But not at
the expense of my family's
health. In other words. I am
opposed to changing the
regulations governing the
quality of milk sold in Wash
ington, on the slim chance
that I might save a few
pennies a month.
Why make a change when
Washington already has the
best milk that money can
buy?

Publicity Asked
On l Legislators
Foreign TruveI
BY the Associated Press

Representative Reuss, Demo-
crat of Wisconsin, said today
members Of Congress who
travel abroad should be re-
quired to account publicly for
all Federal funds spent on such
trips.
In testimony prepared for the
House Administration Commit
tee, Mr.. Reuss urged approval
of a bill which require mem
berS of Congress and officials
of the executive branch to
make such accountings.
In the absence OF any danger
to the national security, Mr..
Reuss said, public accounting
OF all spending from the public
purse must be the rule for all.
Under current regulations,
members Of Congress are not
required to account publicly for
spending of counterpart funds
abroad. These are foreign cur
rencies owned by the United
States Government on deposit
in foreign lands.
Mr.. ReuSs said he has made
public accountingS of these
funds he has spent on two trips
abroad on committee business
since elected to Congress in
1854.
Those members of Congress
who feel that disclosure of their
official travel expenses will
have an adverse political effect
are, in my opinion, mistaken"
Mr.. Reuss said.

Symington Hits
Benson Delay on
Farm Bill Draft

Senator Symington, Demo-
crat of Missouri, says Secre-
tary of Agriculture Benson has
not fulfilled a promise he made
last February to furnish Con-
greesS the administrations
overall farm bill.
Senator Symington told the
Senate yesterday the promise
was made at a Senate Agricul-
ture Committee meeting.
The bill has not yet been
furnished" the Senator said.
The record speaks for itself.
In any case what is needed now
is some constructive action. To
that end the administration
should present the bill prom
ised last February, so the Con-
greSS can consider IL prior 10
the end of this session.
The President, himself,
would seem to be in agreement
with this position, because week
before last he said he hoped
the Congress would pass a
decent farm bill which think
is terribly important to the
United States, even at this late
date
81 hope, therefore, that the
President will notify The Sec
rotary of Agriculture to send
Immediately to the Congress
a draft of what he considers to
be a decent farm bill'."

1T will take more than mere

Mr.. Mcdonald said the steel
