They figured they enhanced their 1954 election chances yester day as they beat down a Republican-led drive to cut, agriculture funds. 481,291 below the amounts former President Truman requested last January lor the two agencies, and Democrats were drafting amend ments to restore some of the cuts Imposed by the appropriations committee. They weren't too optimistic about winning when the showdown voting comes, probably tomorrow, but want to get Republicans on the record against what some Demo- Republicans Optimistic For Chances Of Approval In House For Profit Tax Elsenhower, The House rejected any public housing starts In the next year. Sen. Douglas (D-Ill) denounced many of the cuts In the bill as "phony" and said they would "not save a penny" of spending because they would have to be mad up later.

By CHARLES F. BARRETT WASHINGTON Wl Republican Leader Halleck. ot Indiana said to day he was "very optimistic" about chances for house approval ot President Eisenhower's request to extend the excess profits tax on business. But Republican opponents of the measure disclosed a series oi strat egy moves aimed at defeating the proposal or at least amending it. These were developments alter a lull day of backstage maneuver ing yesterday on an issue that has developed Into one of the sternest tests so far of Elsenhower's lead ership with Congress. At a conference with Halleck and House Speaker Joseph Martin MR Mass), Republican members of the House Ways and Means Commit tee agreed to hold hearings June 1-10 on Eisenhower's request. Tills .request, sent formally to Congress yesterday after being outlined in the President's radio lulk Tuesday night, exhorts Con gress to cut no tuxes this year. Eisenhower said he wants lower taxes as much as anybody but he said that would be inflationary. He raked the Truman adminis tration for leaving what he called "a critically unsound state of fi nancial alfairs." proposing this elx point tax program: extend the excess profits tax six months past Us June 30 expiration dale; don t cut corporation income taxes 5 per cent, as scheduled on.

AFL President George Meany vesterday distributed a statement W&ffte big union Executive council- opposes Eisenhower s eal lhTheyeHousc Ways and Means Committee's decision to hold heal ings on Eisenhower's request was a victory for the administration. Chairman Daniel A. Reed iR-nxi has been adamant in insisting on tax cuts, and some Republicans had doubted whether Eisenhowers plan would ever be brought before the committee. Further, the administration made Inroads on what previously had been a solid lineup of all la rnmmiiipp Rennblicans a R ft i n s t any extension of the excess profits tax, now bringing an estimated 2 Legion Plans Poppy Sale The American Legion Auxiliary will hold its annual poppy sale May 22 and 23.

Dairymen Facing Loss Of Quota PORTLAND I A McMinnville dairyman, fined S100 recently on a charge of watering his milk, ill face loss of his state-granted milk quota Mav 28. The state milk mnrkeung admin istrator set that date for a hearing at McMinnville, directing George H. Warmington. the dalryinnn. to fchow cause why his quota should not be cancelled. to 2',i billion dollars a year. Several who attended the con ference said It was clear some Republican committee mmhers have switched over and will sup port the President. Estimates on Just how many switched ranged from three to six and more. Republican leaders ob viously counted on heavy support lrom the 10 Democrats on the committee to help put the proposal over. The committee apparently hoids the key. Leaders generally aitreed the bill would clear the House and senate floors. But all tax bills normally must start In the ways ana means group. Rules Commltie Chairman Leo Allen (R-Ill) said ha "wouldn't consider" various proposals to route an excess profits tax exten sion bill from his group to the lloor. bypassing the ways and means committee. Democrats, who appeared to hold the balance of power between op posing Republican factions, were generally silent, although most Democrats were expected to vote lor the proposal. Opponents were by no means ready to bow down. One leading Republican said -their strategy called for close questioning of ad ministration witnesses durinrr th .earings, to try to show that the tax penalizes new, small or grow- On both sides, there w fait of various provisions to provide icnt-i nom me lax Jor hardship cases. Halleck would not rule out the prospect that relief provisions wouio be included in the bill. the government's labor and health education and welfare programs. Ignoring warnings from GOP Representatives Burdlck (ND) and Jensen Uowa) that they were "cutting their political throats," most Republicans lined up yester day behind a losing drive to cut 55 million dollars from the 1954 farm conservation program. Supporting the amendment to hold the 1954 program to the 140 millions recommended by the El senhower administration were 152 Republicans and .44 Democrats. Against the amendment, and on the winning side, were 148 Demo crat 3, 1 independent and 54 Repub licans, Democrats kept noticeably quiet as Republicans battled back and forth over the conservation pro gram before the House voted the 195 millions recommended by the appropriations committee. Proponents of the cut claimed the program, designed to encourage farmers to conserve soil fertility, was wasteful. Opponents argued it was needed to assure sufficient productive land in future years to produce food lor a growing population. A limit of $1,000 was voted on conservation payments that may be made to Individual farmers. The present limit is (2,500. There were no cuts In actual money allotments as the House passed the bill, 384-12, and sent It to the Senate. Exclusive of the 1954 conserva tion program authorisation for which money must be provided next year the bill carries $712, 747,828 to finance the Agriculture Department for the coming fiscal year. This is $37,104,514 below the Truman request, but Is $8,942,086 more than President Eisenhower sought. It was the first time this year that the House voted more money than the new President eouested. The Senate reversed usual pro cedure too, voting to cut a money bill below the House figures. Reductions of about five million dollars were approved as the Sen ate late yesterday passed by voice vote its first regular appropriations measure this session the indepen dent oinces bin. Tlie Senate voted about 446 mil Hon dollars to run 22 government agencies in fiscal 1954 as compared with 451 millions in the House version. The differences will be Ironed out in conference. The Senate did eliminate one House economy by voting to permit 30.000 low-rent public housing unit starts in fiscal 1954. This was In line with a recommendation from NOW!
