The 9-6 vote sending the measure to the House floor ended a long stalemate on the amend ment, which busing foes have been pushing for more than a year. House action could come sometime this week but is more likely next week. At the same time, the Rules Committee postponed action on a bill proposed by President Nixon which would prevent the federal courts from issuing any new busing orders until next July 1.

The permanent legislation is now under consideration in the House education and Labor Committee, and the Rules Committee voted 11 to 4 to wait and see how it turns out before taking up the proposed freeze. The Education and Labor Committee voted 22 to 10 Tuesday against any further delay in considering the permanent bill. It is scheduled to start voting on amendments Wednesday and chairman Carl D. Perkins, D Ky., predicts a bill will be ap proved by Thursday. The Rules Committee action was a disappointment to the administration, which wants the freeze enacted. With time run ning out on this session of Congress there is considerable doubt any permanent restrictions on the courts can get through both the House and senate this year. There is even more doubt about the ultimate success of a con stitutional amendment outlawing busing. It requires a two-thirds majority to pass a constitutional amendment, and civil rights leaders predict flatly that it will not pass the Senate. It is a vote that anti-busing forces in the House have been eager to get through, however. They started trying to break a Judiciary Committee stranglehold on the amendment last fall by filing a petition to take it away from the committee. That effort failed, but the Rules Committee accomplished it for them Tuesday. Columnist retracts Eagleton allegationF WASHINGTON (AP) — Columnist Jack Anderson Tuesday retracted his allegation that he had found records showing Sen. Thomas Eagleton had been arrested several times for drunken or reckless driving. Anderson met with Eagleton for more than half an hour, then took back his story “in total.” He said his investigations now show Eagleton was never arrested on such charges. The retraction came as Anderson was severely criticized by Sen. Barry Goldwater, R-Ariz., and The Washington Post. Goldwater said on the Senate floor that Anderson “was forced to admit to total irresponsibility” and has done grave harm to other journalists. The Post, which often disagrees with Goldwater on other issues, said in an editorial that “the Anderson performance has been a reckless and wholly regrettable excursion into the worst kind of ‘journalism’.” What Anderson retracted was his story of last Thursday, when he said in a radio broadcast that he had located photostatic copies of arrest records showing that Eagleton had been cited a half-dozen times for drunken or reckless driving. Anderson apologized to Eagleton publicly Sunday on CBS-TV’s “Pace the Nation” broadcast but refused to retract the story until he was certain it was untrue. He said he had been premature in airing it. But Tuesday Anderson said he had exhausted his investigative abilities and is now convinced the story is false.
