Walsh, Coo Bay. a member of -the board, said. "Sooner or later we are going to have to decide whether this body or the Legislature has the job of making the academic do-i-.sions by which the schools opera c. If the Legislature has that job, I have no purpose on this bord." . The board's eight other members supported him. . Walsh added that he not only disagreed with the committee's conclusions on the foreign student issue, "but I disagree with the whole policy of its stepping into the administrative role. Walsh also said he questioned whether the Ways and Meatus Com mittee action represented . the entire Legislature's viewpoint. . "The Legislature as whole looks askance many times in what the Ways and Means Committee does... This is not the action of the Legislature, nor even of the full Ways and Means Committee, It is the action of a few, ' he said. At one point in the discussion, board president R. E. Kleinsorge suggested that the pro'est should come from the state Board o f Control instead of the Board of Higher Education. Bernard . Mainwaring, Salem, said: "We are bound by thisir laws.

An outline of the proposed measure was provided by subcom mittee Chairman Kelley (D-Pa) who said he hopes to have the bill raady for the full House Educa tion and Labor Committee in a week or 10 days. The bill's backers hope it will break a deadlock over federal aid to education legislation. our aim, Kelley explained, "is to write a bill as simple as pos sible with as few federal controls as possible." But any school construction bill would face rough going in the House. Some members have said privately side issues involving ra cial segregation and building labor wages would prevent any school aid bill from being enacted at this session. As drafted by the education sub committee, the compromise would combine features of the administra tion's proposed program of grants and loans with broader proposals for billions in outright construc tion grants. Reciprocal Trade Act Extension Voted By House WASHINGTON Wl The House voted this week to extend the re ciprocal trade act three more years and give the President new powers to cut tariffs. The vote for final passage was 347-54. Passed and sent to the Senate, after a final flurry of debate but with few actual opposition votes, was a compromise version of the bill. Earlier in the session it had provoked a stiff House fight and the Senate had attached numerous amendments. The Senate was expected to act soon on the bill, thus sending it to President Eisenhower for his sig nature. The compromise measure giv ing Eisenhower in general the new authority he sought would let the President lower tariffs up to 15 per cent over the next three years in return for similar concessions from other nations. The reductions could be in steps up to 5 per cent a year. Also the President could cut back to 50 per cent any new duties now above that rate. Blind Men And Women Demonstrate For Pensions VIENNA UB More than 2,000 blind men and women staged a silent demonstration in Vienna Tuesday asking a monthly pen sion of 200 Austrian schillings ($7. 60) from the government.

EAST TRUCKERS STRIKE BOSTON Wl A breakdown in contract negotiations Wednesday brought a creeping paralysis to trucking operations in southern New England.

Watch For ALL NITE SHOW "Dusk to Dawn" SATURDAY PINE MOTOR Know. and Hopes Plans Acceptable For Atomic, Ship WASHINGTON wi Senate Re publican Leader Knowland (Calif) voiced confidence this week that Congress will approve construction of an atomic-powered merchant ship as proposed by , President Eisenhower. The Senate-House Atomic Energy Committee turned down the Presi dent's idea Monday but approved his five-million-dollar plan to hely this country's allies build atomic reactors for power and research. Some members criticized the ship plan as a "showboat" proposal. Knowland said he believes the ship plan will be put into the legis lation before Congress completes action on it. Knowland talked with reporters after the weekly conference of GOP congressional leaders 'and the President. "It was the consensus," Know land said, "that the President's rirogram is constructive and will serve a very useful purpose in DrO' moting atoms-for-peace. I believe that before the session is over we will have approval and the appro priations to eo with it." Knowland and House GOP Lead er Martin (Mass) also expressed belief Congress will restore the Dixon-Yates power project trans mission line which was dis approved by the House Appropria tions Committee. Martin said the House probably win vote on the issue Thursday, and added: "f think we can win that fisht." The House committee rejected the administration's prooosed 6 ti-million-dollar transmission line in favor of a steam plant.
