House To Consider Action On Senate-Passed Anti-Red Bill By JOHN CHADWICK \ WASHINGTON # — Unanimous Senate passage of a bill to outlaw the Communist party confronted GOP House leaders today with the politically trick question of what to do with it in the face of ad- ministration opposition. The Senate’s action, taken at a session yesterday that had many a head spinning, gave an ironic twist to the administration’s ef- forts to drive some anti-Commu- nist measures through Congress in the closing days of the session. With time running out for many of the proposals urged by Atty. Gen. Brownell, the Senate unex- pectedly whipped through some- thing he not only hadn’t asked for but. had consistently opposed. To cap it all, it was Democratic senators, led by-Sen. Humphrey of Minnesota, who came up with an anti-Communist measure that proved to have an irrestible ap- peal to lawmakers in this election year, Sen. Cooper (R-Ky) told his col- Printing...

But- ler (R-Md) aimed at wiping out Communist-dorninated labor unions and wound tip by tacking it, in modified form, on to Humphrey’s bill as an amendment. Humphrey had succeeded in substituting his bill for Butler’s. The result was a combination measure that would outlaw the Communist party, and also would strip Communist-dominated labor unions of the right to be certified as bargaining agents by the Na- tional Labor Relations Board. It passed 85-0, leaving the next move up to the House, A dozen House members have been pushing bills of their own aimed at outlawing the party. Re-. Harrison A. Williams Jr. (D-NJ) promptly announced he would introduce a companion to the Humphrey bill Monday. He id in a statement the Senate bill “is a tremendous stride forward in the fight against the international conspiracy of communism.” Butler’s bill aimed at Commu- nist-infiltrated unions had admin- istration backing, although it was not exactly what Brownell had asked. It also had strong opposition from senators who contended it was an ill-drawn measure tha’ could be used to destroy legitimate labor unions. It survived a first test when the Senate rejected, 57-31, a proposal to sidetrack it in favor of creating a commission to study the problem 3335p iprighter washes! ve SPIN AIRE ® Famous “Shampoo” washing action. © Famous “Centric” agitation duplicates hend leundering, © Simplified mechanical drive. _ © Automatic leg equalizer—lessens vibration. @ Warm and hot water temperature control: @ White porcelain top and glass lid. © Red signal light indicates washer Is in operation, © Full 9-lb. capacity. st alana sell ae al | 2 CHANGE OF COMMAND — George Rooney (left), journalist third class, today ended his tour of duty with the Navy and his job as editor of The Key Outpost, Navy newspaper.

Then Humphrey, a strong oppo- nent of the Butler bill, offered as a substitute a measure to outlaw the Communist party. No hearings had been held on it. There had been no formal discus- sions of it. It was dropped into the debate like a bolt from the blue. Butler id Humphrey’s real ‘purpose was to kill off his bill. Humphrey countered that the way to meet the Communist menace was head on. “Why saw off the branches?” he asked. “‘let’s strike at the trunk.” In ‘the ensuing fireworks, Sen. Ferguson (R-Mich), chairman of the Senate GOP Policy Commit- tee; and some other Republica: also spoke out against the sul stitute. But Sen. Knowland of California, the Republican leader, announced he would vote for Humphrey’s pro- posal if the original Butler bill be- came part of it and he argued strongly for it.
