Labor Dispute Delays Passage Of Mass Transit Bill Terrorists Blast Line CARACAS, Venezuela (UPI) Terrorists blew up for the second time in 25 days Thursday the oil pipeline joining Creole Petroleum, Company's installations at Mara caibo Lake with its refinery in Falcon State. Officials said the terrorists be longed to the armed "orccs of Na tional Liberation (FALHl, whose guerrillas are known lo have been operating in this area. FALN and Communist terrorists have been extremely active in re cent months in activities against American oil companies and do mestic installations in their efforts to topple Hie government of Presi dent Homulo llctancoui t. Many of these terrorists aro believed fi nanced and encouraged by the re gime of Cuban Premier Fidel Castro. On Oct. 27, 19ti2. Communist saboteurs seriously damaged (our electric power stations of the Cre ole firm at Like Maracaibo, tern- poranly paralyzing one-sixth ol Venezuela's oil production. The government declared the whole area a zone of military opera tions and sent troops to protect the oil Installations. This sabotage occurred u ithin hours ot the trans mission of a coded radio signal from Castro's Havana Radio call ing on all Fidi'lista-Communist agents in Latin America to step up a campaign of subversive agi tation. This wave of terrorism has con tinued intermittently, with the lat est incident reported today. A I reole statement said one of two pipelines had been severed in the latest explosion, stopping the dally How of 22.1.000 barrels ol oil. The other pie continued to operate normally. WASHINGTON L'PI i - A la bor controversy Thursday caused a new delay in the expected Senate passage of President Kennedy s scaled-down mass transit bill. But a compromise amendment worked out by Sen. Wayne Morse. D-Ore., to placate organized labor attacked by Sen. Joseph S. Clark, D-Pa., usually a supporter of or ganized labor. Clark charged that the language was changed to please a few senators and as a result nobody knew what it really meant. Primarily, t h e amendment would provide that no federal grants made under the bill could be used to take over private tran sit systems. Labor unions were concerned that they would lose their bar gaining rights to communities which have ordinances outlawing unions for public employes. They had opposed the bill until an agree ment on the amendment was reached. Morse said in reply to Clark that in cities like Atlanta, Ga local unions would be in danger of losing bargaining rights they now have with private transit sys tems unless the amendment is in cluded in the bill. Sponsors of the bill, which was trimmed Wednesday after Sen. Stuart Symington, D-Mo., suj gested the nation could not af ford the full amount, hope the re duction will improve the meas ure's chances for House passage. As now written, federal grants totaling $375 million would be made available during the next three years to urban communi ties to build transit systems to aid commuters. Although sponsors agreed that the funds would not go far in re lieving jammed city streets, they said it opened the door to feder al participation in what has been purely a local problem. Opponents of the bill said it would eventually cost $10 billion. Sen. Frank J. Lausche, D-Ohio, said the legislation was the first step toward nationalization of the railroads. Other congressional news: Foreign aid: Congress studied a detailed explanation ot where $4.5 billion would be spent which the foreign aid agency has re quested lor its overseas pro grams. Agency for International Development Director David E. Bell sent the 75-page explanation to congressional committees to give them a "clearer (view of basic U.S. objectives." Education: A Republican rep resentative charged Wednesday lhat House Rules Committee clearance of a $237 million medi cal school aid bill for a floor vote may have been part of a "deal" to shelve all olher education bills. After the Jiules Committee ac tion. Rep. Albert H. Quie, R Minn., speaking for GOP mem bers of the House Education and Labor Committee, said he had been told no other school bills would be allowed out of the Rules Committee this session. Quie blamed President Kennedy for forcing Democratic members of the Education Committee to give up consideration of a general col lege aid bill until the medieal school measure has cleared Con gress. Budget: House Republican Leader Charles A. Halleck, Ind., said Democrats were trying to "scare the daylights out of the country with trumped-up threats of what will happen" if the COP succeeds in its effort to cut $10 to $15 billion from President Ken nedy's proposed budget. So far. Republicans have kept secret their budget-cutting proposals for each agency until after the House or its Appropriations Committee lias acted. They then claim cred it for what ever reduction was made. Dairy: The Kennedy adminis tration has urged Congress to ap prove a compromise plan for cut ting dairy surpluses. The propos al includes a new pricing method for milksheds regulated by feder al milk marketing orders. It also asks farmers to accept payments for voluntarily reducing their production.
