Committee Cut In
Congress Seen In
Reorganizing Plan
Washington, Oct. 10 (U.PJ
The joint senate-house commit
tee to reorganize congress will
shortly recommend that bjth
chambers reduce the number of
their committees by more than
50 per cent, it was learned to
day. A committee member said that
a formal report will be made to
congress within a month. As one
of its main features, he said, it
probably will advocate the con
solidation of the 35 senate legis
lative committees into 13 com
mittees and of the 46 house units
into 16.
The special 12-member reor
ganization committee was set up
last year to study ways and
means of "streamlining" the
present legislative set-up of both
houses. With Sen. Robert M. La
Follctte. Jr., Prog., Wis., us
chairman, the committee heard
testimony of more than 100 con
gressmen, government experts
ana students of political science.
