Sent To Floor, Strikes Drive For Economy WASHINGTON, June 15. (API The House Rules Commit, tee Tuesday sent the administration's housing legislation to the floor. The action clears the way for a House vote on it next week. The committee acted when confronted with a threat that it would be by-passed under the new "anti-bottlenecking" pro cedures. The rules group kept similar legislation bottled up in the last Congress. Estimates of the cost of the legislation runs from $9,000,000, 000 to $19,000,000,000 over a 40-year period. As 'the Committee voted to clear the bill, Rep. Cox (D.-Ga.l, a member, issued a statement saying "we are doing that which Russia so much desires. We are bankrupting our country." The housing program, one of Mr. Truman's major campaign promises, was passed by the Senate April 21 by a 57 to 13 vote. In the House it has collided with an economy drive. Some members are attacking it as "Socialism." The outcome of the prospective House vote is in doubt. The bill calls for a vast program of slums clearance, low rent housing and tarm housing aids.

Little 44-year-old Joyce Mlnon perked up Tuesday, apparently re covering from the beating her father has admitted he gave the tot last Saturday "because she woman t eat. The father, Walter E. Minon, 41, is being held on an open charge until it is known whether the child will live. Sheriff's deputies, summoned to the Minon home by a sister-in-law who lives next door, said the youngster lay unconscious on a davenoort for more than 24 hours. When they took Joyce to a hos pital Sunday, both eyes were swol len shut and her skull was "'al most pulpy." An x-ray examina tion failed to show any fracture, but her doctor said later "thpre are clinical evidences enough." rrosecutor Konaid K. Hull said WASHINGTON, June 15. rP) Senator Hickenlooper (R.-Iowa) is setting out next to attack the atomic energy c o m m i s s i o n's spending of the taxpayer's dol lar. The Iowa senator, pressing his charges of "incredible misman agement" against Commission Chairman David E. Lllienthal, picked for his first target at to day's hearing a secret atomic installation at the Hanford, Wash., plutonium plant. . . The cost of the Hanford proj ect already has stirred up con siderable congressional Interest. Described as the "capstone" to the whole Hanford operation, the facility originally was expected to cost b,j3o,uuu. me commis sion now estimates It will cost $24,950,000. Senator McMahon (D.-Conn.), chairman of the House-Senate Atomic Committee, told reporters yesterday that he had started an investigation into the project as soon as he had heard early (his year about the greatly Increased cost. The Senate Appropriations Sub committee on independent of fices, to which the AEC must turn for money, also has had it under discussion. Hickenlooper was told to go ahead on his new line of inquiry at a closed-door meeting of the joint committee yesterday. And, after consulting with the j five atomic commissioners, the committee decided that the mat-! ter could be discussed in public without "damage to security." . ! Cost Increase Defended ' Details of the facility, for which the General Electric Co. I is contractor, still are shrouded I in secrecy. Carleton Shugg. the commis sion's deputy general manag?r, told the appropriations group last week that the product is one I iou wnicn you neea a oetter word than "deadly poison." It was he who called It the "caDstone" of the whole costly Hanford operation. Shugg and other commission officials have defended the in creased cost. They say that (1) many Improvements have been made in tne original project for which there was no previous blueprint and (2) there have been difficulties which were not anticipated. Another aspect of Hlckenloop er's ease against the commission its loyalty review program will be aired behind closed doors at some later date. None of the committee mem bers, McMahon said, favors a full open hearing on Hlckenlooper's contention mat Key aec em ployes have been given access to secret material despite "deroga- Mlnon admitted, he clubbed -the child to "correct her after she refused to eat and wouldn't talk to him when he tried to "reason with her."
