C., e N D AT WASTHEINGRON, D, @ ORGANIZING GROUP BACKS PRESIDENT House Committee Member Says Body Is Not in Disagreement. Representative Mead, Democrat, of New York, a member of the special House Reorganization Committee, de- clared today that the group “is not in disagreement with the President's plan, nor has it taken any definite ac- tlon in opposition to his recommenda- tions.” Considerable speculation as to whether the House and Senate Reor- ganization Committees were in dis- agreement had arisen after separation of the two groups from further joint sessions. The House committee is scheduled to meet next week for consideration of four measures covering reorganiza- tion of the adminisrative branch of the government. Following abandon- ment of further joint sessions, Sen- | ator. Robinson, the majority leader, announced the Senate Committee will consider the President's entire reor- ganization plan in one bill, while Chairman Cochran of the House group sald his committee would first consider enlarging the White House secretariat directly through an appropriation pro- without substantive law and | then consider three other measures covering the rest of the Brownlow Committee recommendations. “The House and Senate committees, whieh have been holding joint meet- ings, have reached a period in the consideration of the President’s pro- gram where it is more convenient for them to meet separately,” Represent- ative Mead said in a statement. “In other words, all of the witnesses rep- resenting the President's committee, Senator Byrd's committee and other experts have been heard, and to ex- pedite these proceedings joint hearings were held. “Now that the hearings stage is over and ¢he committees must get down to the work of grinding out the legislation, the membership . of each committee, having their own ideas regarding this important ques- tion, will meet as other committees do in the House and Senate.” He said he believes sentiment in the House committee “favors the President’s program, although there may be some differences in the de- talls of the plan.” The House committee, as a means of expediting legislation, he explained, “may report several bills, while it is rumored the Senate body will report an omnibus bill. At any rate, there is no desire on the part of the House committee to thwart the President's program, and reasonable progress will be made.” It is known that Senator Byrd and his original Senate committee are de- cidely in disagreement with the Presi- | dent's program, and it has been dis- closed the Brookings Institution re ports also disagree fundamentally with | the recommendations.
