Judge Bryan's Opinion
Federal Judge Albert V. Bry-
an, who made the award, held
that the Government had a
duty to appraise property with
ordinary care and diligence in
order to gauge the fairness of
the purchase price. Neglect of
this duty, Judge Bryan ruled,
made the Government liable
to the purchaser.
The Fourth Circuit Court of
Appeals upheld Judge Bryan.
The FILA had appraised the
home at $22,750. Several days
after the Neustadts moved in,
cracks appeared in walls and
ceilings. Examination revealed
that the foundations of the
house were settling because of
the character of the subsoil. It
was found that underpinning
the foundations would cost sew
eral thousand dollars.
In urging reversal, the JUS
tice Department stressed the
magnitude of the possible liza
bility of the Government" 1t
told the high court that the
FILA insured 495,172 mort
cages with a total value of over
Sc billion in 1859 alone. 1t
argued that if this decision
were allowed to stand the Gov
ernment could become involved
in damage suits wherever mis-
taken information supplied by
a Federal agency brought fl
nancial loss to a citizen.

Over Lost Yeur

The House Appropriations

much money as he requested
for the United States Informa-
ton Agency for the coming

In allowing $134,782,500 for
the agency it did not curtail
Voice of America operations,
however. But it cut $16,695, 500
from the $151,4 900 originally
requested for USIA.
The actual reduction was
even greater because of Mr..
Kennedy's further request for
an additional SO million in his
message to Congress last
Thursday. On the other hand,
the committees total was
So, ,086,932 more than the
agency received for the current
fiscal year. The House planned
to take up the bill Wednesday.
The $134.7 million allotment
was contained in an $751, ,300,-
$50 appropriation bill which the
committee reported out today
for the fiscal year beginning
July l for the State and Justice
Departments. the judiciary and
related agencies such as the
Civil Rights Commission and
the USIA.
S54 Million Slash
The committee trimmed most
major items for a net slash of
$54, ,284, 152 below adminiStra-
ton requests. The bills total,
nevertheless, was almost IS mil
lion above the current fiscal
year amount for those depart
ments and agencies.
The State Department would

ment, $294,239, 300. a $4.1 mil
lion reduction, and the judici-

The Civil Rights Commission
was given 1902, 900, the amount
requested. The commission
would go out Of existence next
December unless continued by
Congress.
The FBI also was given the
exact amount it requested,
$127, ,216.000. The committee
commented that "The conf
dence which the committee has

of Director j. Edgar Hoover is
best illustrated by the fact that
this is the 10th consecutive
