called obsolete United States

The action was announced
by Commissioner Robert E.
Mclaughlin after a closed

At the same time, he said,
the city heads directed Cor

to draft a bill to give the Com
missioners authority to require

Commissioner Mclaughlin
said that while the city heads
were seeking a general bonding
authority, Congress would be
told that what prompted the
new request for a bonding law
was the situation in the home

Housing Bill

Extended One YeuI
BY ]. A. O'LEARY
Star staff Writer

The Senate Banking Com
mittee today reported out a
$1.3 billion omnibus housing
bill, one of the major issues
Congress hopes to pass before
adjournment.
The committee chopped 5000
million from the total recon-
mended last week by the
housing subcommittee. Most OF
this reduction was accom-
plished by extending the G1
direct housing loan program
for one instead of two years
The full committee also ap-
proved two separate bills which
would:
l. Create a new department
of housing and metropolitan
affairs, with cabinet status, tc
take over all Federal activity
relating to housing and mu-
nicipal problems.
2. A bill authorizing $10C
million in Treasury loans tt
help cities maintain mass
transportation facilities to the
suburbs.
8. A bill setting up a new
housing program to aid mid
dle-income families whose
earning power is just above
the level required for public
housing.
Most of the money in the
omnibus bill is for urban re.
newal and college housing.
Senator Clark, Democrat Of
Pennsylvania, failed in ar
effort to add to the omnibu.
bill $1,000 additional units Of
public housing. The move wa.
defeated, 8 to 5.

Associated Press Staf Writer

MANILA, June IA joyous,
singing, almost uncomfortable
mass of Filipinos today nearly
overwhelmed President Eisen-
hover with an ecstatic welcome.
This land which the United
States set free only IA years
ago gave Mr.. Eisenhower per-
hapS the greatest tribute he has
ever received overseas. A mil
lion and a half or more roared
their acclaim along a flag
bedecked route, showering Mr..
Eisenhower with a near blizzard
OF pastel confetti and even
paper boxes.
The crowd rivaled the nearly
hysterical turnout of Indians
who welcomed Mr.. Eisenhower
to New Delhi last December.
Sometimes Surging out of
control, the tide of humanity
slowed his parade to a walk as
they jammed to within inches
of the open car. He rode beside
Philippines President Carlos P.
Garcia from the airport to
downtown Manila, 10 miles.
Humid IS Degrees
Acrid fumes from the slow
moving cars occasionally
brought tears to Mr.. Eisen-
hower'S eyes. Filipino and
American security agents
strained to clear a path in
humid 85-degree heat. One

tried to climb on the hood of
the automobile before police
hustled him away.
U. E. Baughman, head of
the United States Secret Serv-
ice, estimated the crowd at IL
to 2 million. The Philippine
press secretary, Jose P. Nable.
said police and military off,
cials set the total at 3
million-112 million in Manila
alone.
Dripping with perSpiration,
Mr.. Eisenhower flashed his ia
nous grin at the crowds. They
smiled and waved back at him
with affection for a hometown
boy made good-the young
Army officer who served here in
the '30S and later became
President. The display was un-
equaled in the islands history.
The tone of the popular
greeting was obvious from the
moment Mr.. Eisenhower landed
at Manila Airport after a long.
tiring flight from Alaska via
Wake Island.

to be recorded against national

was the first time anyone Of the boys
have even seen or heard Of such en- event
but the two boys who volunteered for this
event we're ready to go at the call. Fill

First, blow up balloon, hold it in
the mouth and try to swim forty yards,
and with a little thinking on the part
Of Hilton Reede, he managed to keep the
balloon with air in it and got it across
the pool to take this event going away.
Filson was in it but could not keep air
in his balloon and came in last but
