New Plea Asks
2Days' Debate
On Home Rule
Four in House
File Resolution
To Pry Out Bill
BY GRACE BASSETT
Star star Writer


A new resolution to force q
House vote on District home
rule was filed today.
1t would allow two days de-
bate on a bill to make the Dis
trict a territory. House District
Committee Chairman Mcmillan
could introduce a substitute
bill on which four hours Of de-
bate would be granted.
Then, the resolution would
call for a vote on both the
original territorial bill, Spon-
sored by Representative Foley,
Democrat of Maryland, and on
a substitute, if one was offered.
MIR. Mcmillan, traditional foe
Of home rule, also would have
q chance to move to recommit
either the original or the SUBJ
stitute to the House District
Committee.
Must Rest Seven Days
The fresh resolution was
sponsored by Democratic Rep
resentativeS Foley and Multer
of New York, and Republican
Representatives Springer of
Illinois and Baldwin of Cali
fornia. They are the same four
who, several weeks ago, filed
a petition to pry the territorial
bill from the District Commit
tee and limit floor debate to
one hour.
Their resolution must rest
before the House Rules Com
mittee for seven legislative
days. After the seventh day,
they may take to the Speak
er's desk another petition to
discharge the controversial
home rule bill.
The territorial bill will be-
come first priority business of
the House if 219 members sign
the petition. 1t will lie along
side the old petition, filed by
Mr.. Multer. The Multer petit
ton has collected IS signatures.
An early rush to sign it was
halted by Southern Congress-
men, including Mr.. Mcmillan,
who charged the one-hour de-
bate limit was a gag" on free
discussion of the 83-page bill.
Steering Group Support
The Multer petition cannot
be withdrawn unless all IS sig
natories withdraw their names
and the House unanimously ap-
proves removal of the petition
from the Speakers desk.
Mr.. Foley and Mr.. Multer
stressed that the new petition
was unanimously supported by
the informal steering group"
which has guided House STRAIT
egg for home rule this session.
THE resolution provides, so
far as I can learn. the most
liberal rule for any discharge
petition of recent years" Mr..
Foley said.

Invusions
Are Turget
Of Farley
BY the Associated Press

Secretary of State Herter
today called on the foreign
of the American re-
publics to examine candidly
the Caribbean tensions and to
adopt steps that will ease
them.
Mr.. Herter's plea was made
as he left National Airport
for a conference of the min
listers in Santiago, Chile, which
opens Wednesday. The session
is aimed at calming unrest in
the Caribbean.
Even as the United States
delegation headed to the spe-
cial conference, fresh reports
were arriving here of alleged
invasion attempts in the .trou-
bled area.
The foreign ministers ses-
sion in Chile is the first such
conference called by the Or
ganization of American States
to deal with affairs within the
hemisphere.
Tensions Cited
In his statement, Mr.. Herter
said over the past several
months I'VE have been in
creasingly concerned with the
political tensions which have
been developing in the Carib-
bean area.
by a candid examination Of
the tensions and the adoption
OF mutually agreed measures
for dealing with them on the
basis of the principles and re-
sponsibilities, the meeting of
foreign ministers will fulfill the
aspirations of our people," he
said.
Mr.. Herter added he is GER
tain that the wisdom &C.
cumulated over the last so
years land the determination
which characterized our inter-
American system will stand us
In good stead in meeting the
challenge and opportunity af-
forded by this meeting"
Officials here hope the ses-
sion will produce conditions to
discourage any would-be in
vaders among the Latin AmerI-
can nations.
Several modest steps toward
making an effective peace-pre-
serving instrument out of the
inter American system are
favored by the United States.
Difficult Problems
Diplomats agree the session
is faced with difficult problems.
Some of the more involved
issues may be left for further
study before a broader inter-
American conference to be held
next February in Quito,
Ecuador.
Cuban participation in the
Santiago meeting had been in
definite because of friction be-
tween Premier Fidel Castro and
some other governments in the
area.

Announcement at the Presi-

Chancellor Adenauer in Bonn
on August 81 came as a surprise
in diplomatic circles.
While it has been stated all

abroad, observers had been
under the impression the Chan

House Group
Rejects | Cent
Gas TaxRise
1873 Vote Deepens
Party Split on
Highway Program
BY ROBERT X. WALSH
Star Stan Writer


A proposed l-cent increase
in the Federal gas tax to keep
the interstate highway con-
struction program going was
rejected by the House Ways
and Means Committee today.
The 1873 vote made more
complete the deadlock between
that committee and the House
Public Works Committee.
Last week the Public Works
Committee approved an au-
thorization bill providing $2.2
billion in annual ALLEGATIONS to
States beginning Immediately
for the 1861 fiscal year.
The action today also deep
ened the split between Ways
and Means Committee Demo-
Gratis and President Eisenhower,
who wants the current 3 cents
a gallon gasoline tax raised to
Az cents.
Deficit Threatens
Mr.. Eisenhower warned that
a 11a-cent increase was neces-
sary not only to prevent the
highway construction program
from begging down next year
in several States. but also to
avoid a huge threatened deficit
in the Highway Trust Fund.
The Ways and Means Com
mittee recently voted tenta-
lively to meet the financial
crisis through a 81 billion bond
issue. 1t also had worked out
a tentative compromise" to
stretch out the highway pro-
gram for six years beyond its
scheduled 1872 expiration date
and to provide only $500 mil
lion for immediate ALLEGATIONS
to States for fiscal 1861.
Under the 4l,000-mile in
terstate highway building pro-
gram authorized by Congress
in 1856 the Federal Govern
ment pays 80 per cent of the
cost and the States the re-
10 per cent.
The outcome of today's
closed meeting of the Ways
and Means Committee left the
financing question about where
it was several weeks ago.
The committee will meet
aagain tomorrow to vote on
several other proposals, pos
sibly including a revised plan
for a bond issue or some
method of transferring Treas
ury general funds to the High
way Trust Fund.
Reversal Doubtful
The Eisenhower administra-
ton opposes such alternatives.
Committee members said to-
day, however, they saw little
prospect of reversing the 1873
vote that rejected a proposal
by Representative Byrnes, Re-
publican of Wisconsin, for a
l cent a gallon gas tax in
crease. One member said, how
ever, there might be a Slight
chance" of approving a accent
increase.
1t was learned that the Is
votes against the 1-cent in
crease proposal included IL
Democratic and three Repub-
lican votes. The eight men,
bers voting for the increase
included six Republicans and
two Democrats.
Representative Curtis, Re-
publican of Missouri, severity
criticized members who voted
against the gas tax increase
He charged that "the spenders
who voted for this program
now refuse to vote for a prac-
tical way to pay for it,"
