compromise bill backed by the
President would exempt from
coverage any retailer obtaining
less than Is per cent of his
goods from out-of-State.
Sticks To His Objections
But Senator Monroney told
the administrations represent
atives the 25 per cent provision
and other exceptions would not
overcome his objections. He
made it clear to them that no
compromise will be acceptable
so long as the bill retains the
principle of coverage for one
State enterprises.
The amendment must be Of
fered on the Senate floor, Sen
ator Monroney said, to give
Congress the chance to decide
whether to stand by the tradi-
tional concept of interstate
commerce.
The administrations bill in
the Senate would raise the
minimum wage for workers now
covered from 81 an hour to
$1.15 and then to SIPS two
years later. The bill would ex-
tend coverage to 4,013,0OO
workers who now are excluded,
starting them at 81 and raising
them to $l.25 in three addi-
tional annual steps. Senate ac-
ton is expected around mid
April.

Dirksen Backs Longer Terms
Senator DirkSen, Senate Re-

these portions of the majority
report but supported a recon-
mendation for increasing the

The Democrats proposed the

CODE OF ethlcS and criminal
penalties for back-door influ-
ence attempts.
Senator Dirksen, Republican
Of Illinois; the third member of
the Subcommittee on Admin
istrative Practice and Proce-
dhre, disagreed in whole or in
part with some of these pro-
poSals.
,All~three Senators were in
basic agreement on, a key point
-athat members Of the regula-
tory agencies should be freed
OF deciding individual cases so
they can concentrate on policy
issues.
under the proposed system,
hearingSexaminers would decide
disputed cases before agencies
Ike the Federal Power Com
mission. the Federal Communi-
cations Commission and the In
tqstate Commerce Commission.
| Would Cut Backlog
THE Senators said relieving
commission members of having
to decide individual cases not
o1ly would give them more time
to frame policy but, is essential
to Qcut down case backlogs which
plague the agencies.
The majority report prepared
by the Democratic Senators for
the full Judiciary Committee
said, Agency control of policy
can best be achieved by reliev-
ing the principal officers of the
decisional duty"
Decisions could be appealed
I'd the courts, and the Demo-
crafts proposed also that exam
iners' rulings be subject to
limited and discretionary re-
view by the agency itself"
5Anothery recommendation of
the Democratic majority was
THE Enactment of Legislation
to protect consumers from de-
lays by which utilities have
been able to amass capital by
filing unjustified applications
for rate Increases"
fSenator Dirksen said this is
a.field outside the subcommit-
tees jurisdiction.
sThe majority report said in
formation received by the sub
committee strongly indicates
that delays in rate regulatory
proceedings have made it pos
sble for the companies to Sc
cure capital funds at the ex-
pense of the consumers"
500 Padding" Charged
i"This is accomplished d
through filing over stated
claims for rate increases" the
report said. Recent experience
has shown, an average padding
Of about so per cent in request
ed rate increases
The accumulation of dis
puted rate collections runs to
enormous amounts, Senators
Carroll and Hart said in their
report, adding that in the field
