WEDNESDAY, FEBRUARY 10, 1954 PERALD AND NEWS. KLAMATH FALLS. OREGON PAGE SEVEN Navy Mothball Methods Eyed WASHINGTON W1 Rep. Tol lelsnn (R-Wash) suggested 10 t!ie Navy Wednesday It could save $11,400,000 by adopting Maritime Administration's methods In Uie tcheduled laying up of Wl tankers. Tollcfson, acting chairman of the House Merchant Marine Commit tee, made public a letter to Sec retary of Navy Anderson in which Labor Survey Shows Trend WASHINGTON W A Labor Department survey, it was learned Wednesday, shows that 63 major labor unions representing slightly over eight million workers are re quired by their constitutions to hold pre-strlke votes. The results of the survey were relayed to the Senate Labor Com mittee in a letter from Stuart Rothman, Labor Department so licitor. Contents of the letter were made available to a reporter. Rothman said 112 of 215 major national and international unions were studied and that of these, 63 are bound by constitutional provi sions which "require pre-strike votes by local union members." The remainder, he added, require for the most part that national of ficers must approve before a local can call a strike. However, the Labor Department legal officer said the study "does not demonstrate the extent to which a great many additional workers may be covered by a strike vote requirement In. their local constitutions where the inter national does not so provide." Rothman estimated that the 112 unions surveyed account for 80 per cent of all organized workers, whose number he put at around 17 million. e referred to recent announce ments that the Navy will "moth ball" 67 vessels. rolleison said he understands all of these are T2 type lankeis on loan irom uie Maritime Ad ministration and that bids for lav lng up two such vessels had run irom 1238,754 to 1263.000. He said the same type vessel Is placed In the Maritime Adminis tration s lay up fleet at a much lower cost. At my inquiry," he declared, the Maritime Administration tells me that it can lay up sucn u vessel at a cost not exceeding $60,000 plus the cost of towing to uie iiect site." "If the 57 vessels were returned to the Maritime Administration lor lay up, or if the Navy used the same process employed bv the Maritime Administration there oould conceivably be an Initial sav ing of (200,000 per ship or , total of $11,400,000. There might be ad ditional savings in the annual cost of maintenance." Tollefson. conceded the Navy's methods might be more complete und longer lasting or that it might permit ships to be put into active service quicker.!

Wiretap Bill Faces Changes WASHINGTON IX A compro mise was in prospect Wednesday Republican differences wmcn have stymied House consideration of a bill to legalize wiretapping in national security cases. One possibility, reported to be looked upon with favor at the White House, would hand authority for permitting wiretapping over to the President instead of the attor ney general as now proposed In the administration-backed version. It is this matter or authority which has held up wiretap legisla tion In the House. GOP leaders had tentatively planned to call It up for action last month. Attorney General Brownell con tends that control over wiretap in terceptions should be vested in the attorney general alone. He argues it would be less cumbersome, and would largely prevent the possibil ity of security "leaks." On the other hand, a House Judiciary subcommittee already has approved a bill by Rep. Keat ing (R-NY) which not only would require approval by the attorney general, but also an advance fed eral court order in each speclflo case of wiretapping. The Keating bill was approved unanimously by the subcommittee but has since been held up in the full committee at Brownell's request. The subcommittee has agreed to hear Brownell argue . his - case again, and Keating told newsmen he would be "receptive" to i changes. f -.. INCOME TAX RETURNS Eiixrtly Piapand By: N. J.
