Senate Awaits Report
On Powers W FIioht

sentenced to 10 years in prison
but was exchanged February
10 for Soviet Spy Rudolph
Abel.
Since Mr.. Powers return he
has been under questioning by
a special board headed by Fed
eral Judge E. Barrett Pretty
man.
Senator Russell said a CHA
subcommittee, which includes
senior Senators of both the
Armed Services and Appropria-
tons Committees. has been
kept fully informed of all de-
velopments in the Powers case,
including the inquiry by the
Prettyman board.
Senator Russell said all
members of the Armed Services
Committee will examine the
Powers report in secret before
deciding if additional action
Is necessary.
If there is a Senate investi-
cation it probably would be
conducted by a special subcom-
mittee headed by Senator STEM
mis-, Democrat Of Mississippi.

faction. however, among some
of the five Republicans and 10
Democrats on the Rules Com
mittee. Several are from States
that would lose House seats
because OF the ALLEGATION of
seats resulting from the 1860
census and others oppose a
change of any sort.
A stand opening the bill to
amendments might be sup
ported by the bills outright OPP
ponents as a means of discour-
aging the Democratic leader
ship from ever calling up the
bill.
Numerous bills 70 increase
the size of the House have been
introduced since the census
showed that 16 States would
lose seats next year. If all
those States were to be accom-
modated the House would need
more than 500 members. It
currently has 437, the total set
temporarily when Alaska and
Hawaii became States. After
this year and for purposes of
the congressional elections next
November. the total would re-
vert to the 435 established in
1911.
The Walter bill for 438 would
result in Massachusetts, Penn
Sylvania and Missouri losing
one less House seat each under
the reapportionment. The Wal
ter bill thus far has not been
openly attacked by sponsors of
previous bills for larger totals
to care for other States.

Thurmond said in explanation.

published in the Congressional
Record last Monday at the re-
quest Of Senator Thurmond
Democrat of South Carolina.
There was no immediate COM
ment from Senator Thurmond
on Senator Cases remarks.
The South Carolina Senator
is a member of an Armed Serv-
ices subcommittee now investi-
eating his charges that CEN
sorship has muzzled military
personnel who attempted to
speak against communism.
Senator Case voiced his crit
icism in reply to a question in
an interview tapped for New
Jersey and Philadelphia tele-
vision stations.
Cost Put at S4,O50
A questioner figured that it
cost $4,050. to have the As
pages of material printed III
the Congressional Record, and
asked Senator Case whether
this didn't represent a waste
OF taxpayers money, since, he
said, the quoted excerpts con-
sisted Of items that Senator
Thurmond had already made
widely available?
Il think it was" Senator
Case replied.
However. he defended the
latitude Senators enjoy in hav-
ing material published at Gov
eminent expense in the rec
ord. Then he concluded:
But this represents, I think,

abuse and I'm sorry that it
happened"

Requesting the permission
Senator Thurmond noted that

placed in evidence in the sub
committees hearing. and would
be published in the printed

Senator Thurmond explained
that he wanted them published
in the Record, too, because

whether and how much to en-.
large the House itself.
On the eve of a scheduled
hearing tomorrow on the bill
to add three House members
committee members differed
not only on whether to send
the bill to the House but also
on whether to ban amend
ments.
Speaker Mccormack and
others favoring fewer House
losses for M a Ssa uSetts
Pennsylvania and Missouri dc
not want the bill thrown wide
open to amendments. Such q
procedure could cause leglsla-
tive turmoil on the House floor
1t conceivably could wind up
with a bill to expand the House
far beyond the 438 total pro-
posed In the bill.
The measure, introduced by
Representative Walter, Demo-
crat of Pennsylvania, and ap-
proved by the Judiciary Com
mittee despite earlier opposi-
ton by Chairman Celler, DEM
ocrat of New York, seemed well
on the road to passage. There
was reported agreement be-
tween Democratic and Repub-
lican leaders on it.
The Republican leaders, who
otherwise frowned on any ex-
pansion in an election year,
repeatedly accepted the three
member proposal to avoid get

Council Discusses Purchase of Co-0p Outfu|I

Stewart A. Durrant, general manager of Matanuska Maid, Inc. appeared at the Aug. 28 meeting of the Palmer City Council to discuss arrange ments for city use of the Coop outfall sewer system.
 Durrant said that the outfall, which would be capable of handling sewage disposal for a city of 5000 people, is mex pensive for the coop to operate and works well, and that he feels that the board of direc- tors would prefer a lease or rental arrangement to outright sale of the system.
 Council members and city manager Winston Gilchrist ex- pressed the opinion that the state department of health and federal funding agencies would require that the city own its entire sewer system
 Members decided to arrange for a meeting with state health department officials before making further arrangements

and Durrant was asked to bring the matter before the Matanus- ka Maid, Inc. board of direc- tors for discussion.
 Bill Hermann, another coun- cil visitor who has represented the city planning commission on the sewer system problem, said he is of the opinion that the state department of health would find the Coop outfall entirely satisfactory, and that if arrangements can be made with the Coop, the elimination of the pollution plant from the projected system would save the city about $160,000.
 Hermann also recommended a local registered professional civil engineer for the job of mapping the system, saying that this man would be satis- factory to the state department of health.
 The council agreed to accept the proposed zoning ordinance with their suggested changes,

HUNTSVILLE CREWS MAKE CITY PARK
 IMPROVEMENTS

All open areas of the Palmer City Park were cleared and graded, and all big trees slated for removal were taken out by crews and equipment from the Evan Jones Coal Company on Friday, Aug. 24.
 Heavy equipment, including Euclid trucks, tractors, bull dozers, and front end loaders, was brought from the mine by the Kopperud trucking com pany, which donated it's ser vice in hauling the machinery to the park for the days work.
 There were considerable pro- blems involved in moving the heavy equipment over the highway, requiring the cooper ation, of the Alaska State police and the department of high ways, Hugh Mathieson, super intendent of the Evan Jones Coal Company, said.
 The mining company had or iginally planned to contribute crew time and machinery for two days work, but since AL aska state law prohibits the transportation of heavy equip ment over state roads on week ends, the miners were unable to continue their project on Saturday.
 A quantity of debris remains to be moved to the Matanuska River dump, Mathieson pointed out, suggesting that this jot might be project for another organization. The miners plar to spend another day at tn, park site, making manual i'm provements such as the con struction of outdoor fireplaces
