Republicans Knock Out

Of Adminisiration Measure
WASHINOTON. June 29 i
The whole public housing section
was knocked out of the administra
tions vast homing bill todsy sub
ject to later vote.
With the aid of soma southern
democrats, republicans muttered a
lag to lflt vol to knock out on th
house floor provision for 110000

UOS.000.000.
Th rallying cry of Ui opponent
of the provision was "socialism."
Th action could b reversed
later.
Australia

Strike Action
SYDNEY. Australia. June 29 ijPv
Federal and suit governments to
day prepared drastic special laws
to deal with a national emergency
brought on by a strike of 24.000
coal miners.
Th New South Wales legislative
assembly In a night session passed
an emergency bill giving the state
government wartime powers. The
bill la expected to pass the legis
lative council (upper houaei tonight.
The measure will authorise the
government to take over or control
any property or search any premises
necessary to deal with the crisis. It
will affect 3.000.000.000 persons.
Tli miner struck Monday. They
demanded a 15 per cent pay ral.

But even so. It was a tremendous
blow to the bill which has been the
center of a tough light a.l week
long.
Rep Reeve R-Kasl offered the
amendment lo strip Ui bill of th
public housing section.
On a standing vote his proposal
was barely shy of approval. It got
lis vote and a count ol th oppo
sition showed I.K.
Then members paraded down the
middle aisle to be counted on a
teller ballot.
That changed Ui result by a
three-vote margin.
Th OOP maneuver showed sur
prising strength, A previous repub-
j llcan effort merely to cut down the
l of the housing program had
failed by a Useable score.
Be for th public housing pro
vision was voted down the bill
already had been rut down to senate
sire from I 060 000 to S10.000 unit
and from MOO 000 .000 to 1308.000.000.
Th action, taken on a vole vote,
may give Uie bill a little easier
going from here on In.
A republican attempt to make the
cut deeper waa batted down.
But It still was uncertain Just
when the house would get around
to a final vote on It revised bill.
Rep. Albert M Cole tR Kan.) tried
to put over the bigger rut. He didn't
say anything about the number of
units. But he proposed slashing the
annual subsidy from MOO .000 .000 to
1 tim.ooo.ooo.
He got licked by 90 to M stand
ing vole.
Earlier, the house knocked out of
the administration measure a pro
vision for continued government
operation of migratory farm worker
housing.
The section was voted out of Uie
measure l&g to 99 despite the argu
ment of one member that Uie pro
gram had helped solve the problem
that formed the them of "The
Grapes of Wrath."
Republicans launched another
major assault on the housing bill,
but administration leaders stuck to
their prediction of victory on main
points by nightfall.
