in the back.
The woman said she asked
the driver if she could buy one

lawyer of the corporation.
Rather than do that, the
woman recounted, she drove
to the farm, where she saw
conditions there. She said
there was no heat, windows
were broken and there were
dead dogs among the live ones.
Neighbor Moved
Mrs. Marie Moore. who for
merly lived next door to the
farm, said her family had to
move down the road because
she couldn't stand the situation

Just a little warm wind
would make you SICK" Mrs

She said her son, Stanley

once because the odor was so
bad.

animals were buried. Last fall,

House Backs
Cut in Powell
GrOup'sFunds
Lundrum Proposal
To Split Committee
Gets Applause
BY ROBERT X. WALSH
Star Staff Writer

The House today quickly APP
proved a sharp cut in Educa-
ton and Labor Committee
funds by authorizing 5000, 900
for one year instead Of the
$697, 900 requested by Chair
man Powell for two years.
Adoption of a resolution APP
proved earlier today by the
House Administration Commit
tee came on a voice vote with
no indication of dissent.
Representative Powell, DEM
ocrat Of New York. whose &C
tivities as chairman during the
last two years have stirred
much controversy in and out
OF Congress, was not present
today.
Representative Roosevelt,
Democrat of California, ex-
planned to the House that the
chairman unfortunately was
unable to be here today be-
cause he is i'll with Asian flu. "
Asks Two Committees
In the course Of debate on
the resolution, Representative
Landrum, Democrat of Geor-
gia, was applauded by many
Democrats and Republicans
when he urged that the Edu-
cation and Labor Committee
be divided into separate Is
member committees on educa-
ton and labor.
He announced that he was
introducing a bill to that affect
today and would seek early
hearings on it.
There is no personal feeling
involved in this" Mr.. Landrum
said. THE real problem in this
situation does not lie in the
amount of money for the COM
mittee chairman or individual
members to use for programs
as they see fit. The two basic
subjects or education and labor
are so vast and complicated
that the present committee and
its staff cannot give adequate
attention to everything ii
should in those fields"
Republican Complaints
Republican members who
favored a cut in the authorize
ton for Education and Labor
Committee investigations and
study programs complained
that the ALLEGATION of the
100000 for 1863 might pre-
vent them from having ade-
quate staff help.
They had planned a move in
the House this afternoon to
increase the amount at least
by $4,000 and to earmark the
additional money for employ
ment Of professional staff
aides for Republican members.

1t was reliably reported that

assistant for Washington area

The three-point revenue
package drafted by District
officials and backed by the

the annual Federal payments
to the city. This authorization
ceiling would be equal to the
taxes that the Federal Govern
ment would pay to the District

2. A new formula determin-

would be set at 6 per cent Of

New IssuesLau

NEW YORK (AP). - Slack
retail demand for two giant
new issues put a damper on the
entire bond market this week
and the net result was small
losses for Government issues
and a mixed corporate list.
The big issues were $3.50 mil
lion Of 36-year, 42s per cent
debentures sold on Tuesday by
American Telephone g. Tele-
graph Co. and 1922 million Of
Washington State Public Power
Supply System revenue bonds
awarded Wednesday. Neither
was more than about rs per
cent sold at retail at the weeks
end.
The AT&T offering was the
largest corporate issue since
october when the same COM
pany raised the same amount.
Bidding was aggressive and the
bonds we're reoffered at a price
to yield 4.33 per cent. Market
specialist said the bidders evi-
IDENTIFY anticipated a continuing
rise in the market. But insti-
tutional investors held back.
william S. Morris g. Co.
startled the bond community
by bidding and winning the
Washington power issue. This
bidding, too, was aggressive.
Morris, a relatively small COM
pany bidding alone, won the is
sue against three big groups.
A reduction in the Canadian
bank rate to 31a per cent from
4 gave governments a tempo
rary helping hand. But the ef-
feet was short-lived as the dis
appointment over the telephone
issue extended into the Govern
ment market. Activity dwindled
as prices drifted lower.
