Hopes Fading
For Expanded
S.S. Coverage
By UNITED PRESS
Chances faded further today for
enactment this year of a House-
approved bill to expand and liber
alize the social security system.
The bill, approved 372 to 31 by
the House yesterday, would add
about one million persons to those
now receiving social security pay
ments. It would increase payroll
tuxes Jan. 1.
YThe Senate Finance Committee
decided to start hearings on the
bill Friday but did not indicate it
would try for passage this year.
Chairman Harry F. Byrd (D-Va)
said the committee would give
"full consideration" to the mea
sure. With Congress snooting for ad
journment by the end of next
week, there appeared to be little
likelihood of getting the bill
through the Senate.
Other congressional news:
Caps: Harry Lev, millionaire
capmaker to the government, told
Senate investigators five weeks
ago he never paid "one broken
cent to a federal employe to land
a contract. At resumed hearings
today former government clothing
inspector Michael Weintraub testi
fied Lev "tried many times to
bribe me and called me filthy and
profane names when I refused."
The Senate Investigating Sub
committee produced a letter, writ
ten by Hyman Roskin of St. Louis
who died three days after signing!
It. Koskin charged that Lev "em
ployed Army officials from a col
onel to an inspector" and became
"government cap king.'
Highways: The House Public
Works Committee tentatively ap
proved J12,400.000.000 in new taxes
over 16 years to finance its pro
posed road building program. The
committee revamped a financing
program it had approved earlier,
making changes which would
mean a net gain of 400 million
dollars for the Treasury. The com
mittee, as a substitute ofr Presi
dent Elsenhower's highway plan,
wants to build $18,500,000,000 in
highways and roads. It would fi
nance it with new levies on gaso
line, tires, trucks, and the like.
The committee will wind up work
on its progrnm tomorrow.

Chilled convicts at the Nevada

ever action I deem iiecessary."
He was expected to land at Reno
and drive directly to the prison.
Two minor acts of violence were
reported, both of them before day
break this morning.
Break Into Shop
Many of the 222 convicts taking
part broke into a small coffee and
ice cream shop adjoining the pris
on exercise yard they have re
fused to leave since yesterday af
ternoon and helped themselves to
ice cream.
Later they collected in a small
recreation room and began milling
around. Prison personnel, fearing
they might begin fighting among
themselves, fired a single tear gas
bomb into the room to clear them
out.
In neither instance was there
any evidence of rioting or destruc
tion of fixtures.
The convicts presented a list of
12 demands to Warden Art Bern
ard who called a regularly elected
"grievance" committee into his of
fice shortly after the prisoners
refused to line up for dinner.
The committee, none actively en
gaged in the "quiet disturbance,
said the key demand was the con
ference with the governor. "If
they back down on that," one of
them said, "they have lost their
fight."
Cold During Nifilit "
The men, comprising more than
two-thirds of the entire 358-inmatt-

GKNEVA (UP1 President Eis

States never would wage an ag
gressive war against any nation.
The President gave the Soviet
leader that assurance in the course
of today's first shirt sleeve work
ing session of the Big Four sum
mit conference.
Mr. Eisenhower repeatedly as
sured the Russian delegation that
the Soviet Union has nothing to
fear from German reunification,
so far as the United States is con

Keeping Eye
On Geneva
WASHINGTON (UP)-Congre-
men keeping a long - distance
watch on developments at Geneva
were generally optimistic today
over the Big Four meeting's open
ing tones of cooperation. But some
frowned critically at Soviet Rus
sia's opening proposal for Euro
pean security.
Sen. John J. Sparkman (D-Ala),
a member of the Senate Foreign
Relations Committee, said Soviet
Prime Minister Nikolai Bulganin's
proposal for liquidating the North
Atlantic Treaty Organization Is
impossible for us to agree .to"
without some kind of workable
arms control plan for Europe.
Sen. Homer E. Capehart (R-Ind).
another committee member, said
"I'm not in fnvor of liquidating
NATO." But he said he did not
think the Russian proposal "closes
the door'! to possible progress at
the Big Four talks.
Most Senators Optimistic
Congressional leaders expected
to get their first report on devel
opments today from Vice Presi
dent Richard M. Nixon. It was
agreed nt a White House meeting
last week that congressional lead
ers would receive special progress
reports on the Geneva talks.
Many senators voiced open op
timism about prospects for suc
cess at Geneva in light of the
opening statements by the "Big
Four. There was strong praise
for President Eisenhower's eight
point program. And some were
especially interested in British
Prime Minister Anthony Eden's
arms control plan for Europe.
Chairman Walter F. George D
Ga of the Senate Foreign Rela
tions group said that "as a first
step." Eden's plan "might well be
kept under consideration." He said
that "once there can be an agree
ment, even general, some prog
ress may be possible.
"Nothing New" On NATO
Sen. J. William Fulbright (D-
Ark), a member of the committee,
said there Is "nothing new" about
the Russian desire to "eliminate
NATO." But he said the proposal
should not be the "preclusion of
further attempts" by the Western
powers toward progress at Ge
neva. Sen. H. Alexander Smith (R-N.IL
the committee's second - ranking
GOP member, said Eden's propos
al was "something that ought to
be explored. He told a reporter
that "our whole attitude must be
one of optimism and hope that the
nttitude of conciliation" by all par
ties at the talks "will be realty
sincere."
Sen. Mike Mansfield (D-Mont).
another committee member, said
he was "vt-ry happy" with the
generally mild tone of Bulganin's
speech.

The President appealed directly
to Zhukov to obtain Russian
acceptance of NATO as an instru

Bulganin, in his opening address
to the conference yesterday, had
outlined a Soviet plan for Eu

House Group
Rejects Bid
On Dam Issue
WASHINGTON (UP) The
House Interior Committee today
rejected, 13 to 11, a move to post
pone Indefinitely further action to
authorize federal construction of
the controversial Hells Canyon
Dam. '
It was a party line vote with
Democrats voting against and Re
publicans for.
The motion, ' which in effect
would have killed the authorizing
legislation at least fop the lime
being, was offered by Rep. A. L.
Milter (K-Neb).
Miller's motion was to postpone
Indefinitely further committee con
sideration ot a bill by Rep. Grade
riost ID-Idaho) to let the federal
government, rather than private
power, develop the Snake River
In Idaho through construction ot
a 350 million dollar high levol
dam,- . f. r.. ........ A'
A Federal Power Commission
examiner has recommended that
the Idaho Power Oomnanv be
authorized to build three low-level
dams in the river. The Elsenhower
administration opposes federal de
velopment of the Hells Canyon
site.
Technically tfie committee today
was sitting as an Irrigation Sub
committee, comprising approxi
mately the some membership. In
:k the group had killed a similar
bill by approving the same motion
made by Miller today.
The action left the ptospeots for
the measure at this session of Con
gress still In doubt.
Mrs. Pfost Interpreted the vote
as Indicating the measure now has
a good chance for prompt approv
al by the Interior Committee. She
said she did not think further hear
ings would be necessary.
The committee completed four
days of hearings last Friday. At
that time Miller offered his motion
to postpone Indefinitely further
consideration of the bill. But the
motion did not then come to a vote
because of a lack of a quorum.
