Stuart Svminjton two potent House committees hD-Mo'. a former secretary of the share President Eisenhower'! con- Air Force ami a sharp critic ol corn anoui wnai nas oeen called Eisenhower administration de- tense policies. the munitions lobby, but they doubt that a congressional probe would solve anything. They agreed lobbying activities have had the result of forcing de fense costs higher, but they pret ty well agreed also that the aver age citizen himself unwittingly is t strong force behind the drives. These views came from Chair man Clarence Cannon 1D-M01 of the House Appropriations Commit tee and Chairman F. Edwards He txrt iD-La.) of a House Armed Services investigating subcommit tee But they and other Congress members who were interviewed had differing ideas on what con dilutes a munitions lobby if any. Of course there are sales repre sentatives trying to peddle their firms' products to the government and. to do that, seeking congres sional appropriations to provide the money. Some push newly de veloped planes, or missiles, or guns as the best and most neces sary weapons of defense. , Hebert referred to advertising as one of the stronger ways the lobby works. He and Sen. Paul H. Douglas iD-111) criticized some firms' hiring of high-ranking mili tary officers as they retire. Sen. Henry M. Jackson iD-Washi re. ferred to executives from business and industry who hold temporary but important posts in the Penta gon. But Sen. Lyndon B. Johnson ID Tex. Senate-majority leader and head of a Senate Preparedness in vestigating subcommittee, dis counted the idea of a munitions lobby as such. "I don't know any who deserve that label," Johnson said. He saw no need for an inves tigation, and was joined in that The subject came up at Eisen hower's news conference last week. A reporter said several senators had quoted the Presideni as having spoken sharply to them about eliorts by a munitions lob by to alter his defense program. Eisenhower said he didn't think he had used that term, but said he doesn't want to see political ana linancial considerations in volved in defense matters. Cannon and Hebert agreed that the men formally registered with Congress as lobbyists "aren't al ways the really effective ones." "The cleverest lobby is the so cial lobby," Cannon said. "The fellows who do the )ob operate out of the cocktail bars, the golf clubs and the social gatherings." "The best remedy, and perhaps the only remedy. Cannon said, "lies with the voters. They must send representatives here who will stand up against pressures." "Unwittingly," Hebert said, "the voters are helping these big lobby groups. They read newspa per advertisements of how good this or that missile or weapon is, they hear radio programs and they see television programs es pousing the effectiveness of the product of one company or an other. They are on the midway listening to the pitch man, and they write letters to their con gressman, who in turn listens to the voters."

The youth, who thought he was playing with a stage prop, started to run but was halted by his fa ther. The victim's husband. Frank. 40, rushed over and slapped the youth, shouting, "You shot my wife." The expositions crowded with Sunday visitors, took on a tense and tragic air as police rushed to the scene.

The shot came a few minutes before Mrs. Peniman was sched uled to go on stage and step in front of her husband's blazing guns as he fired at targets she held in her hands and mouth. Police took young Frank naco of nearby New Kensington. Pa., into custody for questioning. No charges were preferred. Mrs. Peniman performed with her husband and -daughter. Mary Alice. He is known professionally as "Wild Bill Cody." They joined the exposition last week after touring with a Wild West show. Mr. and Mrs. John Monato said they had taken their boy to the exposition for a Sunday outing. After visiting several other ex- Mo.piibils they went to the frontier village. Young Monaco and his mother walked into a jailhouse cell. He saw two rifles and asked his moth er if he could examine them. Mrs. Monaco said she thought they were part of the display props and agreed. Police quoted her as saying the boy picked up a rifle and pressed the trigger.

St. Congressmen Rap Potomac As Disgrace To Capital WASHINGTON AP - Many rongres-men agree the most ob vious "mess in Washington" is the Potomac River. l!ep. James C. Wright (D-Tcxi said it was a disgrace. Hep. Charles S. Gubser IR- Calif i said "the very stream which waters the roots of Amer ican history" is polluted. House debate on a water pollu tion bill spotlighted the problem U.st week. Gubser told the House that down by the Lincoln Memorial "We would inhale the air made putrid from raw human sewage flowing down our beautiful Potomac from our federal city of Washington." Once the Potomac was a clear. sparkling stream for 287 miles- past Virginia and Maryland (arms, past Washington, past Mount Vernon to Chesapeake Bay.
