Churchill
Hopes for
Ike Visit
LONDON, May 20 (R)—Prime
Minister , Churchill said today he
hones President Eisenhower will
visit - London for personal talks
while he is Chief Executive of
the United States, though no as
pect of British-America,n rela
tions makes such an invitation
urgent now.
Chtirchill did not mention any
date for a visit nor indicate what
sort of issues they would discuss.
His who tone indicated he
would be happy- to welcome the
American. President an y time
Eisenhower wished to renew old
contacts in London.
To squelch any idea that the
British government wants Eisen
hower_ here to discuss Anglo-
American differences, Churchill
told the House of Commons rela
tions between the two nations are
"as intimate and friendly as ev
er,"
Earlier today,o the British For
eign Office denied published re
ports that Churchill is in formal
touch with the Russians with the
aim of promoting 'a Big Three
conference to discuss world prob
lems.
A spokesman told newsmen:
"This report is untrue. I am
authorized to deny it."
Responsible British informants
Who gave out the story yesterday,
however, insisted it was correct
despite the , denial and declared
events will prove it.
In diplomatic circles, some
concern was voiced that the re
-nort might damage Anglo-Amer
ican relations by implying that
Churchill was acting alone with
out prior consultation ' With' the
United States.

whose flight from Poland to Born

technicians their first chance to
inspect an undamaged MlG—the

There was damage this time.
The newcomer, a 22-year-old

Senator Charges
Democrats' Job
Promoting Illegal
WASHINGTON, May 20 (. 1 1')
Senator Williams (R-Del.) today
accused the Truman administra
tion of promoting many thou
sands of government workers il
legally in its last days of power.
He demanded that the workers
be demoted by the • Eisenhower
administrat:on before they,gain
permanent status in their 'etter
jobs.
The Delaware senator said in
a statement the promotions were
"another last minute attempt by
the Truman administration to
raid the federal treasury." He
said, they were on a "wholesale
scale."
Mart y of the employees in
volVed, Williams said, "will, if
allowed to serve one year in their
advanced positions without chal
lenge, gain permanent status in
them.
He stated the promotions- were
made under a ruling by the Civil
Service Commission last October
that employees may be assigned
higher grade duties although
"not eligible for promotion of
two grades. in the civil service
system.
Some workers who got higher
grade duties have also been given
increased pay.

House Plans Study
Of Tax Extension
WASHINGTON, May 20 ()—Eisenhowerß forces took a long
stride forviard e today in their battle for a six-month extension of the
excess profits tax.
Chairman Reed (R-NY) of the powerful House ways and means
committee agreed to hold hearings on President Eisenhower's pro
posal, to keep the tax on the books for another six months. It irS
scheduled to die June 30 unless
extended by Congress.
While Reed stood his ground in
staunch opposition to the • plan,
other members of the committee
were reported weakening in their
opposition. Earlier this year the
15 GOP members of the committee
had voted unanimously against an
extension of the tax.
Reed said in a statement:
"We must keep faith with the
people . . . I do not believe we
should proceed to impose oppres
sive taxes when our party has
pledged itself to reduce them."
The decision to begin hearings
June 1 came after House Speaker
Martin, carrying the ball for the
Eisenhower tax program, met for
two hours with the. five GOP
members of the committee, which
is charged .with starting all tax
legislation through Congress.
Martin' himself was cautious in
discussing the tax matter' with
newsmen after the meeting. He
said only that he was "prayerfully
hopeful" the committee would
agree to send the bill to the floor
and predicted the tax extender
would be voted "if it comes out
of the committee."
One high-ranking Republican
congressman who asked. not to be
identified by name predicted flat
ly the proposal will be approved
with the help of DemOcratic votes.
Others were more cautious, but
agreed that inroads had been made
in the once-solid GOP front on
the committee.
Before meeting with Martin, the
Republican committeemen held a
private session and it was report
ed a majority stood firm against
the extension, but that some—no
one said how many—were waver
ing.

House Adds
$55 Million
To Ag Bill
WASHINGTON, May 20 (IP)
The House jolted the Eisenhower
administration's economy drive
today by approving $55 million
more for 1954 soil conservation
payments to farmers than the
President had requested.
Then it passed and sent to the
Senate a $712,747,828 Agriculture
Department money bill for the
fiscal year starting July 1, 1953.
On other money so far,
the House has managed to cut
funds even below Eisenhower's
own budget-cutting figures, but
members failed to hold the line
when the farm bill came along.
The vote came after Rep. Bur
dick (R-N.D.) told Republicans
they would "legislate" themselves
out of the House if they opposed
soil conservation."
However, more Democrats than
Republicans voted for the in
crPase.
Meantime the Senate was pass
ing its first regular money bill
for the new year, to provide cabout
446 mililons to run 22 indepen
dent government agencies for -the
coming fiscal year. The Senate
cut $6 million off the total voted
by the House. The figure finally
a' reed upon by the Senate was
547 millions less than the same
denartments were voted last year.
The fight over the soil conser
vation payments was a hot, see
saw struggle. At first the House
seemed impressed with arguments
that it was a "give-away program
which would benefit mostly the
"limestone trust" through lime
purchases to improve the land.
