The only way I know to
help keep your skirt with bias

Then remove the waist

as is needed, and replace the
waistband. All skirts will sag
unless they are lined.

Senate Keeps Bonus
For Billboard Curbs

pounds. Both the House and
Senate approved SO.
Both houses increased the
tax on tires used by all cars
from 8 to 10 cents a pound,
and on tubes from 8 to 10 cents.
The House raised the tax on
tread rubber 3 to 5 cents, but
the Senate made 1t 4 cents.
The Fe ederal Government
pays 80 per cent Of the cost of
the interstate system, which
consists Of a divided highway
connecting all the major cities
of the country. The billboard
bonus would add one-half of /
per cent to the 80 per cent in
States that impose restrictions
along the interstate system.
The Federal-aid apportion-
ments are made two years in
advance to enable the States
TO make contracts, and the
1868 apportionment, to be an
nounced next month, will be
stepped up from $2.2 billion to
$2.4 billion. When the system
is completed, the Federal Gov
ernment will have put up $37
billion of the SAL billion cost.
Indications today were that
if the bill goes to conference
the conferees probably would
agree to some extension of the
billboard bonus.

change in Senate rules.
The Rules Committee also
heard Senator Clark, Democrat
Of Pennsylvania, in support Of
nine changes he said are de-
signed to expedite the Senate'S
business. He said many existing
rules reflect an age that is
gone and do not meet present
world conditions.
Proposed Changes
Senator Clark would:
Enable any Senator to object
to another Senator speaking for
more than three consecutive
hours; require Senate confer
ence committees to represent
the decision of the Senate on
major bills: require debate to
be germane: abolish the daily
approval of the journal for the
preceding day; standardize COM
mittee rules so that a majority
can act after reasonable dis
cusSion; enable speeches to be
printed in the Record without
reading, and limit the trans
action of routine business at the
start of each day to one hour.

Congress may wind up with
a compromise allowing States
some additional time beyond
July in which to take advan-
tage of the Federal bonus for
regulating billboards along most
of the interstate system of main
highways.
The Senate late yesterday
adopted by voice-vote a two
year extension of the billboard
bonus as an amendment to the
bill authorizing an additional
$11.5 billion to cover the Fed
eral share of completing the
41,000 miles of main arteries
by 1872.
The bill also grants some Of
the additional highway taxes
asked for by President Ken
nedy to keep the highway pro-
gram on a pay-as-you-go basis.
The major fight, however,
was over billboards, and the
tWo-year extension of the bonus
came after the Senate had de-
feated, 55-38, a substitute mo-
tion to limit the offer to one
year.
Conferees May Decide
But as passed by the House
the bill made no provision for
an extension. which means the
final fate Of the billboard sec
ton will be in the hands of a
joint conference committee, un-
less House leaders should decide
to accept the Senate version.
This was considered a posi-
bility in some quarters because
Of the necessity for completing
the highway bill so that new
ALLEGATIONS Of Federal funds to
the States can be made this
summer.
The Senate passed the bill
last night after beating an
effort by Senator Douglas,
Democrat Of Illinois, to include
all of the additional truck taxes
urged by the President.
The bill keeps the Federal
gas tax at 4 cents. It would
have dropped to 3 cents on
July /.

Top Republican leaders in
Congress are set to blast the
Kennedy administration pub
licly for failing to appoint q
Republican member to the Civil
Service Commission as required
by law.
Although nearly five months
have elapsed since the vacancy
occurred, the White House has
made no move to fill the job
Under the law, one of the three
members Of the Civil Service
Commission must be a member
Of the minority party. The csc
now has only two members
Chairman John Macy and Fred
Lawton, both Democrats.
Republican leaders feel they
have a ready-made issue that
could do them much good
politically.
One Republican remarked
Americans may differ greatly
on their politics, but virtually
all Americans are agreed that
the civil service merit system is
essential to the efficient and
honest operation Of Govern
ment and should not be tam
pered with"
In fairness to Commissioners
Macy and Lawton, they have
bent over backward to avoid
taking any action that would
in any way be construed as
partisan or in violation Of merit
principles. AS a matter of fact
a number of vital decisions have
had to be deferred until a Re-
publican member of the csc
is named.

CIO at its meeting this week
expressed its disappointment
over the report in this column
last week that there will be a
delay in President Kennedy's
issuance of a labor-manage-
ment executive order in Gov
ernment. AS we reported, Mr..
Kennedy is soon expected to
send a letter to agencies telling
them to deal with unions on
personnel policy matters, etc.
However, the administration
then plans to set up a task
force composed of top Govern
ment officials to hold hearings
among employe leaders and
others on what should 60 into
the contemplated executive
order.
This task force project OBJ
viously will take a number of

the Gee is expected to ask
that a labor representative be
appointed to the task force If
Mr.. Kennedy intends to GO
through with the hearings
prior to issuing an executive
order.

In response to questions, Mr.
Hatcher said that he under
stood that the ultrasound
dosage was not changed after
the consultation with Capt
Cheffey.
Mr.. Hatcher reported that
DR.. Travell was satisfied with
the Presidents progress.
He said that by his state
ment that the President was
continuing to improve, he
meant that every day there has
been less discomfort and every
day the President has been dis
tributing more of his weight

his crutches.
The President, Mr.. Hatcher
said, did not exercise in the
