In the past. appropriation
bills always have originated in
the House, but the conferences
to settle differences always
have been held on the Senate
side with a Senator presiding.
An agreement has been
reached on the old Supreme
Court chamber as a neutral
meeting place but the Senate
committee is standing firmly
against alternating the chair
manship unless the House will
agree to let half of the bills
originate in the Senate.
Democratic leaders in both
houses have expressed concern
over the deadlock but appar-
emily have had no success in
working out a compromise.
Sometime before June 80,
both houses will have to pass
a continuing resolution to cover
the everyday operating ex-
penSes of the entire Govern
ment, including Congress, since
none of the money bills for the
year starting July l has be-
come law.

BERLIN.-This is the story
Of Snow White and the good
wall that keeps evil temptation
from the people in the Commu-
mist half of Berlin.
The story was told by Snow
White herself, a truly beautiful
young woman who said with
sincere smile that life in East
Berlin is now much better be-
cause of the wall.
The story began when three
American reporters, driving
through the Communist sector
of Berlin in a rented car, saw
a group of Russian officers
leaving a restaurant and de-
cided it would be an interest
ing place to have lunch.
We parked with the friendly
help of two East Berlin police
mem and stepped into the
sheltered restaurant terrace.
All Of the tables were taken.
Families and groups of men
were having lunch-beer, sau-
sage and potatoes mostly-and
chatting leisurely. 1t was a
lower middle-class neighbour
hood, near the zoo and the So
Wet headquarters at Karlshorst.

No Break Appears Near
In Committee Deadlock

There was no sign today of
a'break in the deadlock between
the House and Senate Appro-
priatlon Committees over pro-
cedure, which is tying up major
money bills and leaving some
Government agencies short of
operating funds. ~
Chairman Hayden Of the

but he told reporters it con-
tanned no new proposals for
q. solution.
He said he wrote the letter
because members Of his COM
inittee thought it advisable to
establish in writing what has
developed thus far in the dis
pute.
Originally, the quarrel grew
out Of an attempt by the House
to have joint conferences on
money bills held on the House
side half Of the time, with
House members presiding half
of the time.

The administrations farm
bill won an initial test that
raised Democratic hopes Of
passing the bill late today
although by a narrow margin.
A 147-125 vote tentatively
upheld a provision under
which farmers could turn over
unused feed grain allotments to
a county committee. Such al
lotments could then be reap
portioned to other farms in the
county.
Republicans protested that
such a reallocation system
would open the way for a
flood of Billie Sol Estes cases. /"
Democrats replied that the
alleged farm acreage allotment
manipulations Of the Texas
operator occurred under a Fed
eral law allowing transfers
from one State to another
They insisted that the provi-
sion In the pending bill had
ample safeguards to prevent
abuse.
Despite the comparative
closeness of the vote, Demo-
cratic leaders said they were
encouraged because practically
all Southern Democrats sup
ported the provision.
Is Amendments
The leaders counted on some
13 more conciliatory amend
to win support from var
ious Democratic members who
had been doubtful or dissatis-
fled with key sections Of the
bill. So many amendments as
we'll as a complete substitute
proposal by the Republican
leadership were to be debated
and voted on that a final show
down on the overall bill was
unlikely until late this after
noon.
To the apparent surprise Of
Democratic leaders, but with
their approval. the House
unanimously a adopted what
Representative Bass, Democrat
of Tennessee, called "a Billie
Sol Estes amendment"
This would provide a maxi
penalty of 10 years in
prison and a $1,000 fine on
''kickbacks" on storage of sur
plus grain.
Penalties would apply to
warehousemen who gave such
payments to farmers in return
for storing grain in elevators,
and also to farmers who &C
cepted such kickbacks.

ocrats agreed to accept would
not greatly affect the bills ma

Hart testified, his salary was
cut from $3.50 a week to 500
a week and he was transferred.
He testified that Mr.. Bright
called him in February, 1862,
to say that Gus Van, then first
vice president of the union, had
heard Of a $4,000 payment from
Mr.. Hart to Mr.. Bright.
Under questioning, Mr.. Hart
said that he did not enforce
the clause of union contracts
requiring employers to deduct
State and Federal taxes because
he felt it was against the ma
tional policy of the union.
Although he has served as
branch manger in a number
of cities, he said, that clause of
the contract was never en-
forced.

Four Missing in NepoI
Include Wilson Kin

(AP).-A grandson of President
Woodrow Wilson and three
other amateur mountaineers
are missing on an attempt to
scale an unconquered Hima-
layan peak.
Prof. Woodrow Wilson Sayre,
43. two other Americans and a
Swiss left their base camp in
eastern Nepal May 2 for the
final climb to the 25,910-foot

Prof. Sayre is a brother of

Prof. Sayre, an assistant pro-
lessor Of philosophy at Tufts

teamed for the expedition with
Norman Hansen, SO, a Boston
lawyer who had climbed Alas

1854; Roger Alan Hart, 81, a
Tufts student. and Hans Peter
Duttle, a Swiss schoolteacher.
Before the four set out from
Katmandu in March, Prof.
Sayre told newsmen they.
planned a leisurely ascent with
no fixed route or schedule.
1--WE want to enjoy the
Journey, see the country and
have fun" Prof. Sayre said.
I'VE will camp whenever and
wherever we feel like"
Mountaineering experts in
Katmandu doubted, however,
that even a "leisurely" climb
would completely black out
news of them for seven weeks.
Prof. Sayre also said before
leaving Boston February 26
that the group planned to
operate on a limited budget,
carry their own supplies and
take no oxygen for breathing

The biggest test before the
final showdown was expected to
come on the Republican SUBJ
stitute. This would extend fol-
one year the present voluntary

The House bill, like a Senate

Its most controversial section
would put stiff controls on pro-
duction Of wheat and feed
grains including corn, oats, rye,
barley and grain sorghum If
farmers voted by a two-thirds
majority to accept the program
and price supports. If farmers
rejected it they could produce
such crops without limitation

Mr.. Hart testified Mr.. Bright

notation that it was a personal
loan to be repaid in three
inStallments.
Mr.. Hart said Mr.. Bright
paid one installment of $3.50
and then said he wouldn't be
able to pay the rest. Mr.. Hart
said he paid the remaining
$500 in cash and was never
repaid.
He testified that he acted as
a "troubleshooter" for AGVA
and opened a branch office in
Washington in January, 1858.
In April of 1858, Mr.. Hart
said. he told Mr.. Bright the
Washington office was not big
enough to warrant paying an
official $3.50 a week salary and
said "in jest" that I'D give
$4,000 to be in Florida" .
Mr.. Bright called him later
and asked If he were serious
about the $4,000. When Mr..
Hart said he was, he testified
Mr.. Bright told him I'll see

himself and his wife.
Mr.. Bright, AGvA's highest
paid official, and joey Adams
national president, were both
in the hearing room as the
deals were described to the
Senate Investigating Subcom-
mittee.
An affidavit was read from
Herbert Robins, managing d.
rector Of Miami Beach,s Caril-
lon Hotel and president of At
lantic Cruise Lines of Miami.
Mr.. Robins stated that he
was approached by Jerry
Baker, AGVA branch manager
in Miami. in behalf of Mr..
Bright. The Carlton has a
union contract with AGVA
signed by Mr.. Baker and coun-
tersigned by Mr.. Bright.
Get Special Rate
According to the affidavit,
Mr.. Robins first agreed to give
Mr.. Bright and his wife a SO
per cent discount on a 13-day
cruise in the Caribbean on the
luxury ship "Franca c." Then,
Mr.. Robins stated, it was ar
ranged that Mr.. Bright and his
wife would pay nothing.
He said that so per cent Of
the minimum rate was paid by
the Carlton Hotel and the
Brights occupied a 81 900 state
room.
The subcommittee had had
earlier testimony that Mr.
Bright got $4,000 worth OF
hospitality at the Concord
Hotel in the Catskill Mountains,
of which he has subsequently
repaid about half.
The Concord Hotel arrange
ment has been described by a
Labor Department representa-
tive as a violation of both the

had a contract with AGVA and
