Gross Acts
To Bur More
House Trips
BY the Associated Press

A technical objection by Rep
resentative Gross. Republican
Of Iowa, is preventing House
members from getting two more
expense-paid trips home and
back to Washington each year:
The extra travel proposal was
part Of a compromise agreed to
by a Senate House committee
which considered a catch-all
appropriation bill.
The Senate had added to the
House measure language allow
ing the Senators more leeway
in deciding how their present
allowance for four round trips
annually for their clerks may
be used. The House has no pro-
vision for free trips home for
House members at q cost not to
exceed 10 cents q mile. This
would be in addition to the
present allowance Of one round
trip at 20 cents per mile.
Mr.. Gross complained that
the compromise violated the
rules since it included a differ
ent category of persons. Speak
er Rayburn, upheld the objec-
ton and the extra trips for
House members went down the
drain.
Senators now are allowed one
round trip at a cost of 20 cents
a mile, pll;s two more at ac-
tual cost. Their employees are
allowed not more than four
such trips at 10 cents a mile.
Mr.. Gross said later that If
there had been any way Of
preventing senatorial employees
from getting more trips home,
he would have done so. He
added that he planned to drive

 It has not been brought to my attention that construction work accomplished by civilian labor on numerous highly secret installa- tions in Alaska has in any way proven detrimental to the security of the United States of Ameri- ea.9
 Egan noted also that Alaska is an area of substantial unemploy- ment, and said it would be a major factor in alleviating h critical jobless situation which at present prevails in AIaska-par- ticularly in the Anchorage-Fair- banks areas where most of the states population is eoneentrat- ed' if civilian Alaska labor could be employed on AIeutian work.
