SENATOR WANTS IKE TO GRAB INITIATIVE IN PEACE ADVANCES By EDWIN B. HAAKINSON WASHINGTN w—Sen. Fland- ers (R-Vt) advocated today that President Eisenhower “grab the initiative” from. the Communists that the U. 8. has instructed Gen. Mark Clark what to tell the Reds about a resumption of truce talks, Democratic protested against what they called failure to before the President was due to deliver a major address on foreign policy to the American Society of Newspaper Editors. Flanders suggested ‘that the President should first consult with congressional leaders on exactly what “the United /Nations—and that means the United States— would accept as truce terms in Korea.” “After they have agreed on this, j the President then should tell Con- gress and the world publicly what he wants,” Flanders said. Flanders said he has no informa- tion on what truce terms would be acceptable to the President and the U, N. . His own ideas for an end to the Korean War call for: (1) withdraw- al of Chinese Communists from Korea and establishment of a neu- tral zone about 40 miles deep along the Yalu River; (2) enforcement of this neutral border by a com- mission of Asians; (3) rehabilita- tion of Korea; (4) holding of free elections for all of Korea after the period of rebuilding, “I think some proposal along these lines would cover all of our pledges from a moral standpoint,” the senator said. “It would protect : Sen, Humphrey; a foreign rela- tions committee member, declared He said the time has come to carry negotiations to the Russians on a global ba: “The war in Korea,” he said, “It be stopped in’ Moscow.

Sparkman (D-Ala) told an interviewer, Sparkman, like Humphrey a member of the foreign relations committee, said that “while I do not know the details of the agree- ment under which the exchange was undertaken, I cannbt under- stand why we did not insure against such a happening as now Seems to be taking place.” PROTECTION RM STOP JING - SHUTTER PHONE 2-553] E ‘stimates Cheer fully Given Trainees Get Diplomas And Awards Wed.

Po-j ‘Thursday, April 16, 1953 House Members Seek To Force Tax Cut Vote By WILLIAM F, ARBOGAST WASHINGTON (#—Twenty-five | House members have joined in an | attempt to force a vote on a bill to reduce income tax rates 10 per cent on July 1—six months ahead of the date now scheduled. If they can get 193 colleagues to join them, they will succeed. They are members who, up to today, had signed a petition to by- pass the House Rules Committee and bring the tax cut bill to the House floor despite opposition of {the GOP House leadership. The rules group has bottled up the bill since mid-February, when the ways and means committee ap- Proved it. Without rules committee clear- ance, the bill cannot now come before the House except under pro- cedure leaving it wide open to changes. Its backers don’t want jto run that risk and have resorted to a petition to circumvent the rules group and force House con- sideration under procedure barring amendments. To be effective, such a petition requires 218 signatures, a majority of the full House membership, Some Republican members claim their leaders are exerting pressure to prevent GOP members from signing. However, 22 of the first 25 signers are Republicans. Despite efforts to clamp air- tight secrecy on such petitions, the names of the signers became known today. The secrecy rule dates back to February, 1932, when Speaker John Nance Garner ruled that the names of signers of discharge petitions may not be disclosed until the required 218 are obtained. The rule providing for discharge petitions does aot specifically re- quire secrecy, put Garner inter- preted it that way, and so have his successors. In April,, 1934, Speaker Henry Rainey said the reason for secrecy was that “publishing the names in the newspaper invites people gen- erally throughout the U. §. to bring pressure on those who have not signed the petition to sign it, and pressure upon those who have signed the petition to take their names off.” A member may remove his name afer signifig such petitions. He may icize the fact that he — is not supposed to tell wi signed. Some members reject the theory that the secrecy rule is necessary to avert “pressure.” They point out that members of Congress are subjected to constant pressures from lobbyists, who are permitted to operate freely. One veteran House member who wouldn’t permit use of his name claimed the secrecy rule on such petitions was designed to permit members to take one position pub- licly and an opposite position secretly, These are the House members who, tip to the start of today's session, have said they. signed, or were reported by colleagues to have signed: Republicans—Chauncey M.

Entitled “Around The Corner} From Harry’s Winter White House,” the article is ilustrated with pictures of the ‘Little White House’ and of Dick's Tire Service. It starts off with a lead para- graph that surely must be the summation of the Chamber of Commerce's dream _ concerning press releases: “Imagine having a business in a town where the sun shines every day, palm trees wave overhead, and clear tropic waters provide some of the finest game fishing in the world.” The story then goes on to give a short history of Key West how Dick Hunter established the south- ernmost treading firm in the U. S., Why former President Truman en- joyed his trips to the Island so much, and a description of the wonderful «vacation features Key West has to offer. Naturally, in mentioning the. lo- cation of Dick’s Tire Service, the magazine could not resist pointing out that it was situated on a street named after the ex-president ~ Truman Ave, An interview with Dick disclos- ed the usual gripe of people who are featured in articles. “The writer didn’t quote me correctly, he complained. “I told him that we have the BEST game fishing | in the world and that our town was ‘tops’. His article just hints at these things without actually | saying they are facts!” 4 Cities Boost Square Dances BUNDLES FOR BilP’s Licensed PAWN SHOP. ' 716 DUVAL ST.
